LeBron sucks
November 12th, 2008 at 8:08 am
recently seen on Drudge (with a flashing siren): TBL slobs LeBron even more than NickP
November 12th, 2008 at 8:14 am
Drafting LeBron a few weeks ago might have been the most fulfilling moment of 2008 for me.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:20 am
Wally Szczerbiak sucks
November 12th, 2008 at 8:21 am
The Great Weis Hope and Pear Bryant, what a nice beat down by Whitlock
November 12th, 2008 at 8:21 am
what sucks about him? 41 in three of 4 games? this man could score 101 points and the next day develop a vaccine for AIDS and you clowns would still say he can’t make a FT or shoot the 3
November 12th, 2008 at 8:23 am
That’s profiling TBL. There’s only one clown here.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:24 am
Ball St has no shot at making a BCS bowl. Not even sure if Boise St will get in one.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:26 am
No room in Ballin for Lebron? I see the Hype Machine got a link already this morning. No wonder he is coming back against the Heat. They have no interior force. Hype Machine should have played against Dwight the game before
Stacy Keibler is so fine
November 12th, 2008 at 8:27 am
That Whitlock article is fan-fuckin-tastic!
I can’t stand Notre Dame and that fat jerk as much as anyone and Love watching them get waxed by and half decent team. Hysterical stuff.
Plus, it’s funny cuz it’s true!
November 12th, 2008 at 8:28 am
Actress? That was very kind…
November 12th, 2008 at 8:28 am
I never said LeBron sucks. He’s a good stats guy.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:28 am
in the last 4 games LeBron has averaged 39 min, 37.5 points, 9 boards, and 6 dimes. how does that suck?
November 12th, 2008 at 8:29 am
His namesake says that was completely unnecessary!
His namesake also thinks that the Cavs can trade Wally’s World in mid-season for the final piece of the puzzle!
November 12th, 2008 at 8:29 am
How hard is it to actually take off from outside the free throw line? I have seen like 20+ players try to do this dunk and every last one jumps from inside the line by at least a foot and a half. For Gods sake take off from outside the damn line.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:29 am
+1 for “The Hype Machine”
November 12th, 2008 at 8:31 am
Yeah, but can he do that for the entire season?
Oh, he can? Cool.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:34 am
I said he sucks. I guess I should have added /sarcasm tag.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:37 am
Forget Lebron.
How good are the Lakers gonna be all year?
They have 9 players who play double-digit minutes, all can score.
2 7-footers who start.
4 defensive difference makers (kobe, bynum, sasha, ariza)
Odom off the bench is perfect
Farmar – who is already better than Fisher leads the 2nd team that is as athletic as any.
Stupid good all year long and Kobe won’t have to exert himself so freshness comes playoffs.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:38 am
but they don’t have James Posey.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:38 am
the hype machine
November 12th, 2008 at 8:40 am
yeah, lebron is garbage. the fact that he took this motley crew to the NBA finals is meaningless.
this one-man show against the best defense in the nba in game 5 of the ECF two years ago was nothing special.
on the plus side, we dropped a benjamin on some kids last night in our regular season finale. i need to get the wife to keep track of my points – i think i had 23. i definitely hit 6 three’s. playoffs next week and i scouted our opponent – beatable. 4 fundamentally-sound white guys with some size who don’t shoot the 3 too well.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:41 am
It’s amazing how Kobe has helped develop his team instead of focusing on padding his numbers. That’s what winners do.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:42 am
oh boy. you guys got TBL fired up now
There is nothing wrong with being the second best player in the world
November 12th, 2008 at 8:42 am
TBL- nobody really thinks he sucks. well, except Clown. that ECF stuff was unnecessary…
/sniffle
November 12th, 2008 at 8:44 am
How good are the Lakers gonna be all year?
having ariza healthy is such a boost for the lakers. that guy is going to be awesome.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:44 am
Jesus clown. You’re going to make his head explode.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:46 am
Needs more Zucco.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:46 am
This is the best thing I’ve seen in a while.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:49 am
Yes, but did he rape any white women, no, then he sucks.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:51 am
who raped a white woman?
November 12th, 2008 at 8:52 am
Yeah, Ill side with the NON rapist
November 12th, 2008 at 8:52 am
You are talking NBA Live 2009 online for PS3 right?
November 12th, 2008 at 8:52 am
why does this have to be a black and white thing?
November 12th, 2008 at 8:54 am
Three cheers for leggy actress Stacy Keibler …
Actress?
November 12th, 2008 at 8:55 am
TBL fucked around and got a triple double.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:55 am
why does this have to be a black and white thing?
Right, Rape is Rape.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:56 am
hey Tampa, your request has been granted.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:57 am
Freaking n***az every way like
M.J.Bron-BronI can’t believe, today was a good day
November 12th, 2008 at 8:57 am
Yeah, but has Kobe stampeded cattle through the Vatican?
November 12th, 2008 at 8:58 am
Left my niggaz house paid, Picked up a girl been tryin to fuck since the twelve grade,Its ironic, I had the brew she had the chronic, The lakers beat the supersonics.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:58 am
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anyone keep track of his own stats for pick-up ball.
November 12th, 2008 at 8:59 am
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anyone keep track of his own stats for pick-up ball.
then what’s the point of playing?
November 12th, 2008 at 9:00 am
Worse than that, to have the wife on the sidelines with a stat book. I seriously hope she has better things to do.
November 12th, 2008 at 9:00 am
KC
- Yeah, that is strange. Bet he’s still happy when they lose – if he gets 20.
November 12th, 2008 at 9:01 am
No, that’s the sign of a cool chick.
November 12th, 2008 at 9:03 am
Hate to break it to Whitlock, but Weis is calling plays because the OC (Haywood) is taking a leave for a family funeral. Facts don’t get in the way of a self-respected journalist.
Too bad people such as fattyslick and Whitlock will just read that and go blabbering how ND is racist, yet they’re one of the only Div I schools with two minorities as coordinators (Corwin Brown and Mike Haywood).
November 12th, 2008 at 9:05 am
TBL also misses shots on purpose to pad his rebound stats ala Ricky Davis because shooting percentage isn’t tracked.
November 12th, 2008 at 9:06 am
BobbyBeingManny – They used to have a black head coach too!
November 12th, 2008 at 9:07 am
Sasha is a lock-down defender?
FAIL
November 12th, 2008 at 9:08 am
@bsanders37 :
Not as funny as this though!
November 12th, 2008 at 9:09 am
BobbyBeingManny using the “I’m not racist, I have a black friend” defense. Always uncomfortable and hilarious. Nicely done.
November 12th, 2008 at 9:11 am
ND is probably has one of the most unracist Football programs ever. They let Carlyle Holiday(worst QB ever) be their QB for like 4 years. I hate Whitlock. He should publish his shit in JET magazine.
November 12th, 2008 at 9:12 am
@TheRealAC
November 12th, 2008 at 9:12 am
Tampa, quit bojangling.
/Whitlock’d
November 12th, 2008 at 9:15 am
well played fattyslick.
/we talkin’ practice?
November 12th, 2008 at 9:15 am
@1 Happy St
Because and offensive and defensive coordinators are in charge of handing out jerseys and shoulder pads, right? Or do you need a definition on what they actually do? Or where most head coaches get their starting gigs?
Oops, I may have too many black friends for you. That may be uncomfortable.
November 12th, 2008 at 9:16 am
@Tampa Bo – They also let every ethnicity pretend they’re Irish.
November 12th, 2008 at 9:26 am
Now BobbyBeingManny taking what I said too seriously and literal. Always uncomfortable and hilarious. Nicely done.
November 12th, 2008 at 9:58 am
Kobe has been on this type of scoring spree 5 or 6 times in the past few years,except people like TBL label him selfish when he does it.
November 12th, 2008 at 10:38 am
Would Whitlock’s attack on Charlie Weiss be considered fat on fat crime?
/probably stole this joke
November 12th, 2008 at 10:45 am
I heard rumors that Obama’s leaks were coming from his new CoS, Rahm Emanuel
