I Hope Kobe Gargles…- Evening Hardwood – June 23

If there is one thing to be said about Raptors alumni, they have no qualms speaking on the whole Donaghy affair. First Doug Christie and now Charles Oakley has come out and said his piece, even pulling the “favourable” calls his buddy Jordan used to get into the argument. Personally I think that is a [...]

Prick. – Evening Hardwood – June 18

Well, thank God THAT is over.
I can appreciate that the NBA (cough) wanted (cough) this matchup, but, in my opinion, the 2008 NBA Playoffs provided little zip. Unless you count a new-found hatred not seen in these parts since Reggie Miller. Has there been such a pompous ass built overnight as quickly as Paul Pierce? [...]

Obama To Knock Pins Down and Bounce His Balls Instead – Evening Hardwood – June 16

Every year about this time, we Torontonians take our pacifiers, blankets, and bibs, gather in a circle and wonder why nobody loves or respects us. Why oh why do players avoid coming to Toronto? We are nice people. Our women are prettier than any in Atlanta, of that I can assure you. You want to [...]

Lansdell’s Lecture 8/2/08 - Love Shaq?

Yes, I know you’re all dying to hear my opinion on The Trade. Please wait, loading…
It was only the Heat. Only the Wizards. Everyone blows them out, nothing to be proud of.
Whatever.
Last season, this Raptors team had a tremendous amount of trouble beating the teams they should beat. This year, one loss out of 4 [...]

Let’s face it this is a blatant cash grab all the way around, by Wilson and by Rogers and his pals Phil Lind and Larry Tanenbaum. And I don’t think any of them, quite frankly, give a fig about the impact on the CFL.
Do I think these games will be a commercial [...]

After watching the Los Angeles Lakers turn themselves into a championship contender with the addition of Pau Gasol, a question about the Raptors begins to form.
What would move the Raptors into that upper echelon in the Eastern Conference, a group that contains Boston and Detroit with Orlando on the periphery?
The answer might be Andrea Bargnani.

Early in the third quarter last night, Kobe Bryant ambled past Toronto Raptors head coach Sam Mitchell after a timeout and gave a little wink, as if to say, you haven’t seen anything yet.
Bryant then coolly drained a three-point shot in front of the Raptors’ bench to prove it.
He made all kinds of other shots, [...]

It's January 21st and Scott's Saying.....

….take a few minutes tonight and read up on Martin Luther King Jr or someone else you find inspirational. Their strength and conviction will make you a better person.
Here’s a quick little article showing who bloggers think are the most deserving of this years MVP award. Seems Kobe is on the tip of tongues.
Hey, you’ve [...]

It's December 28th And Scott's Saying.....

…hope you all had a memorable Christmas break and are looking forward to the Spurs being mauled by the Dinos tonight.
Nice to read and hear that Colangelo is looking to shake things up a bit. Wonder if Jackie Moon is available. He might actually stand up for one of his teammates getting beat down. Failing [...]

It’s December 18th & Scott’s Saying…

Nice to see Kobe is finally heading to Chicago. Too bad it’s in a Laker uniform. You have to admire the Bulls fans, though. Like Knicks fans, they live and breathe with their team. Say what you want about Kobe as well, coming into the season he was hating on where he was, but individually, [...]
