Dropping 'Anchor' on NBA

A whole take on the NBA with Anchorman quotes! I love carpet.


Click here to open the brilliant article by Bill Simmons (Two Part Series.)

...... 21. "You are a smelly pirate hooker! Why don't you go back to your home on Whore Island!"

The funniest fight in the movie goes to the funniest fight of the offseason: Portland's Ha Seung-Jin (a 7-foot-3 South Korean) and Nedzad Sinanovic (a 7-foot-3 Bosnian) getting into a fistfight while shooting free throws at a summer workout, with Ha reportedly screaming, "I'll sue! I'll sue!" before getting pulled away. But it didn't stop there: Ha found Sinanovic in the team's weight room and attacked him with a wooden stretching pole, nailing him twice before they were separated. Within 24 hours, they had made up.

But that's not my favorite part. In John Canzano's report about the incident for The Oregonian, he mentioned how this was a good-natured altercation compared to some of the Portland incidents in the past, leading to this paragraph: "This isn't the same as Zach Randolph cold-cocking Ruben Patterson two seasons ago, breaking his eye socket, then being chased around the facility, and later having to spend the night, in hiding, at Dale Davis' house because Randolph feared for his life. The Ha-Sinanovic bout was about good competition, and frustration, and boiling points."

(Umm ... hiding out at Dale Davis' house? What? How have I never heard that one before? What else don't I know about the 1998-2005 Blazers? Why hasn't there been a five-hour "E! True Hollywood Story" yet? Why aren't cameras rolling at that facility at all times? I know, I know, I ask this every summer. Yeah, but still.)

"I look for the little red light on the dugout camera"

Thank you all for voting :-)

As arrogant and cocky as Jose Canseco was, we'd all hate to admit that he was right. Rafael Palmeiro was a fool to lie in front of Congress. But it makes sense why he's a spokesman for Viagra - all those roids could cause many different disfunctions.

This is like Bill Clinton all over again. There's a lot of talk about impeaching Rafael from the Hall of Fame.
