2008 NBA Top 10 Most Annoying Draft
NESW Sports, Sports Videos — This was the first annual NBA Top 10 Annoying Draft. This years draft did not disappoint. There were some surprises and some blockbuster trades. The Detroit Pistons look over Flips slightly annoying mask and draft Rasheed Wallacefor the number 10 annoying pick. Rasheed talks to more refs than David Stern. I have no idea what he thinks he is accomplishing. The NBA’s Refs can not be swayed. With the 9th pick the Memphis Grizzlies pick Kwame Brown. Memphis is picking him because everyone else has been picking on him. ...

The Life of Stephen A. Smith
Dejuiced! Sports News with No Boundaries — We saw last night that Stephen A. Smith was not in his usual spot during the NBA Draft. But he was still there interviewing the draftees. So his banter was a bit tamed since he just spoke with them. He once had a newspaper column, TV show, and radio show, and an ESPN NBA analyst. Now he’s just that same analyst and a columnist for ESPN the mag. This is the new life of Stephen A. Smith. To try to remember the man he used to be, here’s a video from youtube. The memories. ...

Stephen A. Smith, why people dont like him, Video Evidence
NESW Sports, Sports Videos — If Stephen A. Smith is wondering why people might not like him, He should watch these videos. I will just get right to it. His coworkers at ESPN might not like him, because he yells at them. He is not really making great points. He is just yelling what he believes and shutting everyone else up by yelling at them. His radio show listener Andrew might not like him, because he yells at him instead of listening to him. I think he is yelling to make up for his lack of MLB knowledge. He sounds very defensive. Mark Buchanan might not ...

First Impressions of the 2008 NBA Draft
20secondtimeout.blogspot.com 6/27/2008 — I'm not a "draftnik" but I got six of the first eight picks correct, matching ESPN "guru" Chad Ford. I feel much better after this year's draft than I did after last year's, because this time I don't have a splitting headache from Stephen A. Smith's rants; Smith was shifted from the main table to the kiddie table, where he repeatedly asked the same question--but at least he did it quietly.
