Everyone has an opinion...


*  Its' been quite a while since I've had an opinion, so I'd better get them out before the new year sets in!

* Who does NBA commissioner David Stern think he is? His ultimatum to Jeff Van Gundy sounds more like some 5 year-old. Hasn't he heard of freedom of speech?

* Whatever happened to the Miami Dolphins? Maybe they should change their name to the Miami Chokers? Miami is hoping Ronnie Brown is everything Ricky Williams was and isn't.

* Most of these quotes have been on this website for over two years now, go through and tell me how many are off the mark.

* Speaking of chokers, those Saints should keep their heads hanging low as well. Or should we call them the Aints! - Two years later and the Saints are still has-beens.

* Is that Marc Bulger smiling at Mike Martz or Kurt Warner? It's probably both, he's smiling at the coach for giving him the chance to take the grocery store has-been's job. That's right, I called Warner a has-been. He's been found out and he's done. Call it a case of the Daunte Culpepperitis.

* Whatever happened to the Lakers?

* Is that Rick Adelman approaching Phil Jackson's career coaching win percentage? NO! Not quite. Phil's got to screw up a little worse than that. They're not the Dolphins yet. - Hey maybe that's where the Heat get it from. It's a Miami thing. Maybe that's why Stallone hasn't had a hit flick since Rocky, He's a Miami guy isn't he. For that matter Will Smith hasn't had a hit since Miami. People, just stay away from Miami! - Unless you're a Hurricane. They can't seem to lose. - Maybe becasue Larry Cokers's name is so close to choker he can't. - Well sounds good enough anyway.

* Hey whatever happened to Johnny "Lam" Jones?

* Jones' former mate The J-E-T-S pulles an amazing turnaround. Way to Go! Chad Pennington is deserving of all the credit he gets. He's all the quarterback Byron Leftwich hopes to be.

* This whole Master's thing has gotten way out of hand, hasn't it?
-NO WAY- How can Hootie Johnson put up this fight? Just let a damn women in. We are in the 21st century for cryin' out loud. If you want a club that excludes women build a fort in your backyard. You can't run the largest tournament in the world, have it run un-cut for five hours and keep women out, it's just blasphemous. Grow up Hootie.

* If Annika Sorenstam were to play Hootie Johnson in golf, who would win? - That's what I thought.

* Am I going to far by saying it's finally time for Pete Sampras to hang it up? It's not like he won the last Grand Slam event or anything, Right? - Two years later and Pete has hung it up. Guess I was wrong.

* Is that Mario Lemieux leading the NHL in points? I thought he retired from the league that doesn't showcase it's superstars.

* Why is Lennox Lewis ducking Whaldimir Klitchko? They were about to get it on in
Oceans Eleven befire the lights went out.

* Is Roy Jones really going to fight John Ruiz? I'm one who hopes it really happens.

* Can Chris Byrd be taken seriously as a challenger for the Heavyweight title? Evander Holyfield really looked his age.

*Hey isn't it about time for Evander Holyfield to have another of his fights of the decade?

* Hey, whatever happened to Riddick Bowe?

*Is it too early to let Pete Rose back into the picture?

* My vote is for a college football playoff.

* I hear that Bruce Smith is 3 sacks away from Reggie White's sack record. Rumor has it he'll want to re-negotiate once he gets it.

* How good is Barry Bonds?

* The Astros got a real bargain in Jeff Kent? It will be really interesting to see what kind of excuse he shows up this year with.

* What Michael Jordan do you remember?

* Too bad about them Braves, Huh? They'll still probably end up with the best pitching. - Though Pete Rose has his money on the Mets.
Remember the good old days?
Looking at NBA baskeball, people might actually say Jordan in a Wizards uniform was the good old days.
