Shit is sickening, especially during these months. The roads really aren't terrible, its just the stupid drivers.
I noticed they almost have the light rail done in the Tech Center. They should do the same out to some of the closer resorts in the mountains.

Anonmyouonouousous Scouting Report for the NBA draft:
Quote:1. LaMarcus Aldridge, 6-foot-10 Texas sophomore: “His NBA success is predicated on where he goes. If he goes where they play smash-mouth, half-court basketball, he’ll be average. If he goes to a running team, a Phoenix, a Sacramento or a Dallas, then he’s got a chance to stand out.”
2. Rudy Gay, 6-foot-8 UConn sophomore: “He’s athletic, but he’s just not there yet. He’s a little, maybe a little soft.”
3. Adam Morrison, 6-foot-8 Gonzaga junior: “He’s going to have a place in the league, but the (Larry) Bird comparisons are downright silly. This kid gets a rebound every five minutes. It took Bird less than three minutes for every rebound.”
4. Josh McRoberts, 6-foot-10 Duke freshman: “Love him. Love him. For all the hooting and hollering about (J.J.) Redick, Morrison, Gay and Aldridge, you might look back four years from now and he may be the number-one guy to come out of this draft. He’s athletic. I think he’s going to be good, and he’s probably the top value in this draft.”
5. Randy Foye, 6-foot-3 Villanova senior: “He’s athletic. He makes baskets, and he thinks he belongs. That’s good. You like that in big-conference guys.”
6. Patrick O’Bryant, 7-foot Bradley sophomore: “I like him. I’m a little higher on him than most people are. He likes to play. He just doesn’t play because he’s tall. A lot of big guys play only because they’re tall. You can tell he likes to play the game.”
8. Tyrus Thomas, 6-foot-9 LSU freshman: “I need to see more of him. Sure, he’s a first-rounder, but it’s a bad litter this year. Somebody has to be the pick of the litter.”
9. Rodney Carney, 6-foot-7 Memphis sophomore: “Everyone’s talking about him now like he’s Mr. Wonderful. I’m not so sure about that.”
10. Shelden Williams, 6-foot-9 Duke senior: “I like him. He rebounds. He blocks shots. He can run the floor.”
11. Hilton Armstrong, 6-foot-11 UConn center: “He’s never averaged 10 points a game in his life. Never. And now we’re all excited about him?”
12. Josh Boone, 6-foot-10 UConn sophomore: “Good frame, nice hands and feet, and a good interior defender. He doesn’t handle injuries well, and his willingness to defer to others on the offensive end makes me concerned about his love for the game.”
13. J.J. Redick, 6-foot-4 Duke senior: “Just another guy. He’s going to play in the NBA, but how much better is he than Jon Barry?”
14. Glen “Big Baby” Davis, 6-foot-8 LSU sophomore: “He’s a first-rounder, but what can I say? None of these guys excite me.”
15. Kevin Pittsnogle, West Virginia senior: “I don’t know what to do with him. I just don’t know what to do with him yet.”
15. Craig Smith, Boston College: “Look at the history of undersized fours. They’re all subs. Tell me about Charles Barkley being a star and I’ll tell you about Eddie Gaedel making the major leagues. There’s always one exception.”
16. J.P. Batista, Gonzaga senior: “He’s terrible. He’ll be 25 in October. Let’s work with that a little. He’s like a 13-year-old held back four times playing in a fourth-grade soccer game.”

It was a personal conversation between the scout and a KU Sports writer, I think it was more or less a casual conversation.
Rush is hardly a first round pick as of now, not even a second rounder.
Think McRoberts will leave?

Yeah, Self commented on that. What player is going to say, "Yeah, I'm not good enought to leave"...thats just telling scouts he's not confident. Plus, its his way of motivating his teammates and himself. He wouldn't have commented on it if people didn't ask, ya know?
This year's draft is going to suck shit.

BIRD33 Wrote:If somebody asked Paulus if he was going pro would he need to call a press conference to announce he was staying?Trust me, Rush is an idiot like his brothers and by even sort of considering himself ready for the NBA shows he's delusional.Good luck with that head case.
He didn't call a press conference numb nuts...it was probably the first question reporters asked him after the game. Paulus will never be in the NBA, he's a wanna be Wojo.
Rush has been nothing but a great teammate and coachable player. He's got a lot of work to do. I have no doubt he'll have a much more well rounded game next year.

If Paulus has no future in BB he ought to switch back to football. He had a future there.
I know what you're thinking now. You think we're all gay, don't you? Think we're all just a bunch of deviant lifestyle-living same-sex having motherfuckers, am I right?
