Published 6/29/2007 by Brown Recluse, Esq. at freedarko.com
With Shoals chasing the green over at Deadspin and Dr. LIC gallivanting in the Old Country, it was left to your boys Recluse and Billups to run down the first fourteen picks of this year’s NBA Draft. Brown Recluse, Esq.: do you think conley can fuck with d-wil, paul, or even felton? Billups: i dunno Billups: i think conley is kinda like the young version of old steve francis Brown Recluse, Esq.: really?

How Can You Hate This Man?

... s. Seriously, what’s with all this Noah hate from Bulls fans? Of course everyone thought he was the biggest d-bag of all-time at Florida, but you know what, he’s our d-bag now. And believe it or not, he’s actually a pretty solid basketball player. I love the selection of Noah, and I’m sure Ben Gordon and Luol Deng will to. The Bulls have been too business-like since Skiles and Paxson took over the team, Noah finally gives them a legitimate crazy guy, there first since Dennis Rodman. Sure, he’s not going to get 20 and 10 every night, but you know what, neither would anyone else who was still available at the ninth pick. Who did people want, Spencer Hawes? Spencer Hawes is a pussy. Would you really want your starting center to include “political debates” among his top interests? Plus, in a fight, Noah would WRECK Hawes. If I’m Pax, that’s a good enough reason to take Noah right there. And yeah, the dude is a little ugly, but if anything, that’s just going to add intimidation. ...

... ] If you missed last night's NBA draft and want to re-live the whole experience, here you go. [ Deadspin ] 2 milestones were reached in baseball last night: Frank Thomas' 500th homerun and Craig Biggio's 3000th hit. Oddly enough Thomas' Hall of Fame credentials are in question, Biggio's are not.  Scrappiness goes a long way. [ ...

2008 NBA Draft Live Blog
Published 29 days ago by Sam Rubenstein at SLAM Online
... Hello! It is time for the 2008 NBA draft. I will be your slamonline live blogger tonight. I am still at the office for the moment, but we’re about to head over to MSG. I’ll find a more current front page photo when the time comes, but for now it’s Joakim Noah’s draft night look from last year. One of my favorite Bethlehem Shoals lines ever came as a reaction to that outfit: “Noah. . YOU LOOK LIKE EVERY SINGLE BATMAN VILLAIN ROLLED UP INTO ONE.” So, play along in the comment section, and I will try to give it more of a ...
