TheKurp Posted September 21, 2001 Share Posted September 21, 2001 Perhaps we could sign Rod Strickland for one game if Arrington is still to weak from strep throat come Monday night. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A64047-2001Sep20.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted September 21, 2001 Share Posted September 21, 2001 Is there a bigger loser than Rod Strickland? I remember last year when he was waived and CBS Sportsline opined that the Lakers were going to sign him. I knew there is no way Phil Jackson would have anything to do with Strickland. He went to a team in Portland that like last year's Redskins just collected names. At 35 he is done. He can't stay healthy and is at best an off the bench player. No one is going to put up with his garbage for that kind of contribution. Just read this one line from his agent and you have the entire alibi-laiden BS that has surrounded Strickland's excuse-making for his own conduct: "While he's trying to get a job with a team, this comes out. It's blatantly unfair," Statham said. Strickland, 35, is a free agent. Blatantly unfair? How about buying your client an alarm clock so he can make it to practice on time. Maybe by doing that he would have a job already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennesseeCarl Posted September 21, 2001 Share Posted September 21, 2001 If true, this would put Strickland right up there among the most loathesome public figures I can think of. What a waste of talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildbill Posted September 21, 2001 Share Posted September 21, 2001 I agree the Lakers would haver never picked up Strickland.Not a bad move picking up Richmond Though.I just wish we would have kept eddie Jones< He would fit well with Phil and the Triangle.This is the best time of year,Watch my beloved skins and then watch the Lakers toy with the rest of the league [ by wildbillskins on September 21, 2001.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sisko Posted September 21, 2001 Share Posted September 21, 2001 Hey TennesseeCarl...close but not quite. I think I'd characterize him more as a waste of perfectly good human protoplasm. The talent is just a bonus that he's wasting for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted September 21, 2001 Share Posted September 21, 2001 I just want to see how our young team plays with MJ at the point forward spot and How Jagr fits in with the Caps ------------------ Take a sip of the Marty Kool Aid and Believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
