my D3 volleyball player might have a serious knee injury and needs to schedule an MRI. As they say, you are only as happy as your least happy kid.

Oh man, that’s tough. I hope the MRI comes clean and it’s just a scare. And a very wise thing you say, i wholeheartedly agree that our happiness is connected to our kids happiness from the moment they’re born into this (crazy?) world.

You are going to make those retirees feel so inferior when you arrive in Bologna with your construction efficiency spreadsheets.

Hahaha, Z-man the Umarell*!! 😀

Cyber, you’re reading way more into my comment than I actually said. I said if there was a league wide re-draft, the Knicks would probably be the 28th team to have a player picked. Before the Spurs and Jazz strategically traded their good players, we’d probably be dead last.

You’re right, yesterday was late here and i read your comment wrong. Actually on a league wide draft i agree with you, but it’s because we have a lot of players of about the same level. So to pick the first we could be dead last 3 months ago, but to pick 5th we’d be leaning towards average, imo. I disagree with your analysis of how bad being the last team to have a player picked, but hey we just have to agree to disagree. 😉
I guess during the season i get mad at optimists (hi Swift!) because if what’s really happening don’t allow for said optimism, it looks like out of touch to keep negating the reality in front of our eyes. And during the offseason i get mad at pessimists because we still don’t have proof that said pessimism is granted. Who would bet all his money that RJ won’t be much improved to start the season? Yeah, that’s it. It’s a good gamble but it’s not impossible. One month from now we’ll have 4 preseason and 2 regular season games, and we’ll probably know better if we’re doomed or not.

I just realized this is the first new car I’ve ever owned. Huh.

So how does it feel?

Oof.

There’s a model. It’s proven. We are doing it… very poorly.

“We” gave him the 11th and the 19th pick, then “we” took them away from him.

I think the plan has nothing to do with Perrin. He’s like the gun that Gus McRae gives Newt in Lonesome Dove. It’s better to have Perrin and not need him than it is to need Perrin and not have him.

Leon still doesn’t seem to think he needs him.
