Hey you guys have Skita in your training camp now. Isn’t that exciting?

Also, Doug Christie has a show!

God, this offseason sucked.

Thanks, Kevin.

That’s a shame.

That being said, I do not begrudge Hollinger for the move.

If Anuche Brown and Larry Brown dramas don’t excite you you’re asking for too much.

Nothing ?buzzworthy? at all.

Very interesting point.

Now that you mention it, I think Bill Simmons wrote about that before the NBA Finals, where he stated that, if the Mavericks won, we might see teams try to change their systems, but if the Heat won, it’d be the same old, same old.

Brian,

it’s all Miami’s fault. That’s my theory.

Usually, the off-season is filled with far too much information about the comings and goings of various players on the championship roster. That stuff is usually boring but at least it’ll fill up a :15 clip on SportsCenter. But Miami is such a different animal. It’s a team only Dan LeBatard could love (other than D-Wade). There is nothing interesting about them. No one is going to be making moves to try to replicate them. Nothing “buzzworthy” at all. It’s kinda like when the Twins won the World Series in the late 80s and early 90s. What do you write about that?
