To no surprise Bama’s Mark Ingram nabbed the Heisman Trophy based on his 3 td 200 yard performance in the SEC Title game against Florida. Stanford’s Toby Gerhart finished a close 2nd.
Navy 17 Army 3 What else is knew? Next Big Game for the Middies—The Terps next September
Gilbert Arenas missed 2 free throws with 6 seconds left leading to another Wizards loss 114-113 to Indiana. I would like to meet the idiots who said Tyler Hansborough would never … Read More »
The death of their Abe Pollin put some perspective into the Wizards internal bickering as the Caron Butlerless Bullets eked out a 1 point win over Philly. Butler and Arenas are at odds lately which hopefullt can be cured with a couple of Ws. Some reaction to Abe’s death from ESPN.com:
“He would want us to celebrate his life and not mourn his death,” Wizards coach Flip Saunders said. “That’s just the individual he was. But when you’re here going … Read More »
The honeymoon never started for Flip Saunders. According to Washington Post columnist Michael Lee, the Wizards are in turmoil. Brendan Heywood and Gilbert Arenas seem to be at odds. There is definitely an ego problem on this team according to Lee. Gilbert is just not his old self yet he is leading the team in crunch time but not succeeding . The season is still early, however.. Rumors are rampant that AI might be returning to the 76ers. Eddie Jordan … Read More »
I wonder what is on Flip Saunders mind as the Wizards are now at 2-6 and rapidly fading into an abyss. Gilbert is in control of the team but not in control of his game. He is rusty beyond imagination and yet continues to take every crucial shot. What has happened to Stevenson’s shooting–brick after brick. But again injuries are taking their toll on the Bullets. First it was Antawn, then Mike Miller, then Mike James, and last night, Randy … Read More »
Midway through the 2nd quarter , I just had to ask TNT’s David Aldridge, Ron Thompson, and others on Press Row who was wearing the #7 jersey for the Wizards. Surely it wasn’t Andre Blatche. 13-15 from the field. Incredibly aggrssive all over the court. What message did Flip get over to Andre. The kid was truely unbelievable. Gilbert dropped a 32 on the Nets playing only about 25 minutes. And yes, Ernie Grunfeld is hands down EXEC of the … Read More »
PINCH ME!!!! Was that the Wizards I was watching? I know it’s early but the trade for Mike Miller and Randy Foye is looking better and better. Ernie Grunfeld has performed brilliantly:
The hire of Flip Saunders brings energy and a new look team and the word team is emphasized.
The trade and Oberto has given this team depth it has not had in recent memory. Remember Antawn did not play tonight.
I forgot how great Gilbert can be.
The … Read More »
Many guys on this team have a lot to prove this year. First and foremost is the former Agent Zero, Gilbert Arenas. Let’s see if he can put this team on his back while Antawn is recuperating. I do believe that Mike Miller will be a tremendous help as well as the return of Brendan Heywood gives this team big man depth it has never had. Here we go……………………………….
Could the Bullets be snakebit by injuries again? Jamison left early in the game in obvious pain. Let’s hope the injury isnt as bad as it appeard on the tube. I thought Mike Miller looked great in the 1st half. Gilbert Arenas was fined $25000 for not talking to the media. Shocker!!!!
I just watched a 2 hour special on NBA TV about the Wizards in training. Flip Saunders seems to be instilling an all out sense of play. Pre and post game host, Ron Thompson believes that Gilbert will be at top form when the season starts. Gilbert has been working with trainer extraordinaire, Tim Grover who orchestrated the successful return of Dwayne Wade. But remember Gilbert has virtually missed 2 seasons. Timing will be a problem. Thompson predicted a 48 … Read More »
Hopes were high at the Bullets media day on Monday. Flip Saunders wrote an inspiring letter to all of the Wizards fans, ticket prices are being offerred at reasonable prices, the team is healthy and deep, Brendan Heywood is back–Etan Thomas is gone, and optimism for this season is on the rise. Then Gilbert holds his press conference saying the only reason he is there is that he would get fined if he didn’t show.. Listen, if he is healthy … Read More »
