I would take Wiggins and the #5 for Butler in a heartbeat.  But I don't think Minnesota would offer it.

It was probably time to move on from Rose while he's healthy.

He was a true homegrown stud but unfortunately I dont think he's ever gonna be that D. Rose again.

Have fun, Dusty.  Get me an autograph or two.

Who's big in ROH these days?  I catch them on tv here occasionally but not recently.

Why don't the Bulls trade Butler and rebuild?  They seem to be caught in the too good to suck, to bad to compete.  Grant seems to fit what Hoiberg wants to do a lot better than the triangle, so he might surprise.

Curt...

Jim Ross said if you want to make it to WWE you need to focus on making it to ROH first.

Its just a stepping stone. These guys are by no means rich.

They're just trying to make it to the big time.

Most all of WWE's good young guys were signed from ROH (Bryan, Rollins, Cesaro, Styles, Punk, Steen, Zayn, Anderson, Gallows).

Wow - Denzel Valentine?  The Bulls organization really has become a sad joke.

Been that way for a while. Valentine will replace Butler.

Have you not caught onto the pattern for a reinsdorf team yet?

My 5 year old would be insanely jealous.  Big Cena fan.  I've tried explaining to him the unique "art" of professional wrestling, but he still takes things personally when something he doesn't like happens.  So funny. Gets from his mom tho, not me.

I was exactly the same way when I was a kid.

I remember crying a few times over outcomes I didnt like.

Word from the UT boards is that it's not looking good for Pat Summitt and that she likely wont make it through the night.

I have a guilty conscience so I must say this.

As a Christian man Im not allowed to hate anyone and I honestly dont.

As a sports fan we use that word freely even though we dont really have a reason to hate them.

Now to the point at hand.

I dont really hate Pat Summitt and as you may imagine east Tennessee is abuzz with talk about her as we speak.

I said a prayer for her and her family last night and one person after another today has said they expected me to say awful things about her and I havent.

I guess you get the hint.

Word is she's in her final hours.

God bless her and her family.

I bet that prayer made a big difference.
