Losers and Winners

I hate the Patriots. They are like your big brother when you are 11 and he is 15 and you play Madden and he sends you a trade that you think is the best thing in the world except you just Ditka'd your team for one player who is probably gonna get hurt the next game. They just do the little things that you want your team to do. Look at Ocho face once he got the news he would be traded to the Pats instead of forced to play with Jordan Palmer at qb. 

Then the Pats rolled the dice on the Icebox Albert Haynesworth. Seen here taking a nap on the field, I doubt if the Pats allow that. See - Moss Transformation for examples.

A good week to be a former Eagles qb. McNabb went to the Vikes for a ham sandwich and a bag of chips, while Kevin Kolb got a get out of jail free card and went to play in the worst division in football, along with one of the best WRs in the game.  Expect 3500 yards and 30 tds for Kolb throwing against the Rams and Seahawks alone. As far as McNabb, wouldn't it be bittersweet to end up with his old buddy TO? There is no denying the chemistry they had on and off the field. lol.  But with Sidney Rice flying the coup, the Vikes are in heavy need of a big WR, with Percy Harvin set to play Desean Jackson in MINNY. 

Other Winners

Eagles - Rodgers-Cromartie - Much needed to play with and after Samuels

Saints - Sproles - Kickoffs and Reggie Bush plays  

Dolphins - Reggie Bush - Took his talents to South Beach
Panthers - Resigned Deangelo Williams, Greg Olsen from Bears, Charles Johnson

LOSERS

 The Bengals have no QB, no WRs, and a coach that they must have some gay nude photos of, and that was a team that finished 4-12 last year. I guess they have one good WR in AJ Green, but who throws him the ball? Jordan Palmer?

Other losers
Titans - Why do they keep going for "veteran" white qbs? Hasselbeck has had one season with qb rating over 75 in last 5 years. I know Vince wasnt the answer but come on.
Rams - Moss, Rice, TO, Roy Williams, Plax, Vincent Jackson, Braylon Stonehands Edwards, Lance Moore, etc etc. Couldn't make a move on any of these guys?

I guess this just about sums it up.

To leave or not to leave.....

This NBA free agent class is one of the best in recent history. I can think of another year when so many valuable individuals had the ability to control their own destiny..... Until now.... But who goes where??
1.) LeBron James (26 years old) - how can you not go after Bron Bron if you are the Nets, Knicks, and other teams with alot of space and nothing to loose. Hell, put him with some more than average players and make sure they stay away from his moms......that is pretty much the recipe. The most dominant player in the league. I say Lebron will either stay or go to Chicago and keep riding his MJ high.

2.) Dwayne Wade (28) - in my opinion is the most complete player in the league next to Kobe Bryant. But as long as LeBron is linked with him, Wade will stay at #2. Wade will NOT by any means leave South Beach. For what reason should he? He has his own team, beautiful weather, beautiful women, and women who look ten times better than his own wife. I think the bigger question is who will join him? He is in need of a Big man, and a good set shooter. All of the other role players are in place already. Besides the combination that will destroy every franchise for years to come would be the devastating combo of #1 James and #2 Wade. And this would be good for sports!!!

3.) Chris Bosh (26) - Is one of the Best big men in the game. He averaged 22 and 8.7 over the last four seasons. Last year he chose to put up dominant numbers putting himself on display with 28.9 and 11.5 a game. Will Bosh even leave? Raptors showed they will spend money by bringing in Hedo Turkoglu to go with an emerging Calderon and Bargnani. With a couple more pieces this could be a good team in the future. If not im sure that any team with cap space will be willing to take the young fella.GUARANTEED Hell... he would look very good in purple and gold...

4.) Dirk Nowitzki ( 32) Well he averaged 26 and 9 a game this past season. This season also showed that even bringing in role players didnt help. It is time Dirk linked up with a player better than himself because it is obvious he does not have what it takes to get to the promise land.... It will be hard for him to brake away from that Maverick rope Cuban tied him in. I was just thinking to myself... they could be gay. What do yall think??????

5.) Joe Johnson (29) Boy got some game on him!!!! 39% three point shooter as well and very active with assists and boards. He will have high value this off season and will more than likely leave Atlanta. That is if he wants to win someday. He could be that piece LeBron or Wade needs. Maybe him and Bosh would be the new Pat Ewing and Alan Houston?? He is another player who needs someone better than him on his squad.

other notables:
Amare Stoudamire - unimpressive postseason for a top big man and someone wanting top pay.
Carlos Boozer - consistent and underrated. alot of injury issues as well but I like his toughness
Paul Pierce - he still got it.
Manu Ginobli - he came back in rare form. it is his time to get out of San An. and go shine elsewhere

David Lee - Give him the money he deserves. A great complimentary Big man to anyone

Yao Ming - The Chinese tried and hope fully no more experiments from them. this didnt work
Michael Redd - He fell off helllllllla hard.
Ray Allen - he hits threes, but will give you nothing else at all. so just imagine when he is having an off day? You are better off picking the less expensive version of this Ray Allen like.... JJ Reddick or Kapono.
