Well, he was GM when the team made the playoffs. That was kind of a big deal. What’s your definition of a “competitive roster” Trolly McTrollenstein?

“High motor” is overrated. “Lunch pail guy” and “quick first step” are what you want to hear to describe pass rushers.

Personal attack. Reee-porrrrrr-tiddddd!!

Foo Fighters suck!!!!!!!!

Me too brotha. He was crucial to our tourney run last year. I’m certainly not rooting against him. Merely thinking about worst case scenario I guess.

He also needs to stop turning the damn ball over so much. I’d love to have Howard return to form, but right now he is a detriment to his team.

Immunizations cause marijuana use....which causes autism. I have strong empirical evidence based on minutes of research.

Meh. They’re both rotten little brats.

No.

Only homosexuals should be allowed to serve in the military.

You are a thread starting machine!!

Really though....what the hell were they thinking?! Retards.

Medicaid....and yes, large screen TV and all the luxuries. Brother in law is an even bigger POS. Able bodied individual who refuses to work full time. My father even offered him a job as a laborer doing construction earning $30 plus per hour and benefits, and he never even responded. SIL pregnant with their 3rd child presently. Uggh....

“F is For Family” is a great Netflix animated series starring the voice of Bill Burr. It’s like Family Guy on Steroids. Very funny show if you’re into that type of thing.

My two sisters in law....woah baby! Dirtbag extraordinaires!!!! Oh, the stories I could tell. I found out a few years ago that my wife had been paying for one of their cell phone bills ($150/month) for over a year without telling me. Was using her credit card. I put that thing to bed quickly. She is on welfare and food stamps, and yet they both have the newest iphones. Pisses me off. Other than that I work in public education. Have to interact with dirtbags every single freaking day.

No, not since I was a kid, but I wouldn’t be opposed. Especially sitting at home watching the game. I don’t think I’d wear them to a game though.

I spent 66 bucks at the bar tonight for food/drinks/tip. No biggie.

Women shouldn’t be allowed to pee sitting down. If you want the right to vote, you can use a urinal like the rest of us.

Any update, OP? Hope everything went well. Everyone makes errors in judgment....well except for @Turbosrrgood of course. Seems like by starting this thread you were looking to vent or to receive some advice or encouragement. What happened if you care to share?

I don’t know of any specific “turmoil” caused by FH this season, but anyone who followed this thread in the past knows that Frank caused a lot of problems during his sophomore season. A lot of people speculated that FH was one of the reasons that Hop jumped ship for UW when he did. Frank did some stupid *****, divided the team and contributed to losing a major 5* recruit....Hop wanted Frank kicked off the team and Boeheim didn’t. Certainly not the only reason Hop left when he did, but those “in the know” know that Hop and JB had a major, major disagreement about Frank. I’ve gone from thinking this team is going to live and die by Frank Howard to thinking (especially after watching the Buddy-Tyus tandem over the last few games) we should just move on. As you mentioned, there is a noticeable difference in the team when Frank is out there. His attitude sucks, he doesn’t hustle, and he doesn’t play defense. Start Tyus at PG, Buddy at SG, and have Jalen Carey spell Tyus at the point. Hughes can play SG too.

I don’t see why Buddy can’t be the primary SG. He has grown so much. He hustles, plays good defense, and can hit shots. I’d take Tyus and Buddy over Howard and Tyus all day right now. I want Howard to return to form just as much as anyone, BTW. I’ve seen spurts from him, but he has looked worse and worse as of late. I think injury plays a role, but I also think FH has character issues that make it difficult for him to overcome adversity. Put the best 5 on the floor.

Ever notice how Chukwu can dunk like a mofo on an alley-oop, but it is impossible for him to catch and dunk under the hoop? Mystery of physics.... Certainly not ideal, but if Howard is sucking like he has, why not exactly?

You have to bench Howard when he is playing like he currently is. He’s been flat out terrible in every facet of the game, and his effort out there (especially on defense) is deplorable. I agree we need Howard to play well, but if he continues to be a detriment to the team...roll with Battle and Boeheim. JB pulls Battle for Howard (seemingly to give Tyus a brief rest) down by 1 point and look what happened?! Two quick turnovers by Howard and very quickly we are out of the game again. I don’t know what happened to Howard between last season and this one, but he really, really sucks right now. Also, the getting over the injury excuse is growing old.

I would put my $ on Metcalf. Physical freak unlike any other in this draft. Watching his highlights, he reminds me a great deal of Randy Moss.
