My mistake, it should have said "Way off, Darkside".

I misread the earlier post. Please forgive me, I forgot that everyone is supposed to love bagels, and now I must pay the price. :oops: :D

At first I thought this was a good thing, because it would mean both got fired immediately in the offseason. You guys bring up good points on Vinny though. I cant even begin to say how frustrated I will be if they bring Vinny back. I seriously might not even root for the Bulls next year.

As for him getting another coaching job... I'm not sure. I guess if he makes the playoffs he can say he made it back to back years, losing his best scorer, blah blah blah. I thought it's obvious that he's a terrible coach. Just look at the difference in Salmons in Milwaukee and here. It's ridiculous.

I was thinking RPB was making a take off of Jefferson Airplane too..

Fuck Paxson.


Sho 'nuff! But when a white guy attacks you, he's edgy and fiery and passionate. When a brother does the same, he's an uncontrollable wild animal. I hate white basketball attacks!

It sucks that we aren't talking about just how awesome Derrick Rose was last night. Instead it's about two guys who suck at their jobs and a slap fight.

Agreed. Rose was great last night. I didn't know 39 was a career high.

That windmill dunk was sick.

sorry DS, not even close

also, Soul Asylum was a solid band for awhile. Yes runaway train was overyplayed and a novelty...but they had some solid power-pop albums. Cartoon is a great song...Hangtime is a solid album as is GDU

Late to the party, but saw them in concert with a young Goo Goo Dolls as the opener back in 1993 or 1994 in Iowa City. Pirner was so drunk he could barely stand up.

You would have done the same thing if Vinny played Noah too many minutes in front of your wife and kids.

I agree with this. Nas definitely has better sports thoughts than HOVA

Wow. Workplace violence is ok as long as both the attacker and the victim are of the same age.

Paxson & Del Negro should be psychologically evaluated and taken away from their parents...

C'mon. He shoved him. I think it's a stretch to say it was workplace violence. While obviously you'd rather not have the situation happen, some workplaces lend themselves to getting a little more heated than others. These arent 9-5 cubicle jobs.

There is a difference in a sports realted environment (on the field/court/locker room) and then the seperate environment of the suits in a front/business office. These two pushing/shoving/threatening each other is the same as the marketing VP and the ticketing VP doing the same thing. You think that would be ok? Of course not. These are upper-management guys in an office.

edit: Paxson grabbed Del Negro by his tie and threatened him to a fight.

I don't think the size of the participants have anything to do with this. If it's right, defend that, if it's wrong, defend that position.

As for the players caring, are you saying they didn't care before Paxson did this (or care enough?)? Will they win more games now that Paxson has proven to the players that he cares? I'm not understanding your point here.

Challenging someone who works directly under you to a fight doesn't mean you care, it means you're a fucking meathead. I know I'd be thrilled to play for a GM who in the face of adversity threatens a coach instead of doing something professional.

I said I didn't have an issue with it. That pretty much tells you I don't think it was wrong. Believe it or not these players do have feelings. With everything being equal they are likely to want to play for a guy who they believe cares about them. This is a league where I would guess over half of the players didn't have a father in their lives.


Wouldn't Noah or Rose prefer Paxson make the team better as opposed to picking a fight with a coach who's going to be fired? If they make a great free agent pickup in the off-season, I think that will make their core feel better, I doubt that the team is feeling any emotional pickup over what Paxson did.

It's a good thing Pax has given his fatherly advice that if you have a problem with someone you should challenge them to a fight. Hopefully the impressionable Bulls players take his advice and become complete loose cannons and go Artest on anyone that dare cross them. I'm sure future Bulls coaches will thank their lucky stars Pax has decided to bestow his wisdom on them. I'm sure potential free agents would love to play for a VP of BB that has done such an excellent job of assembling a team the only avenue left for improvement is threats of violence.

You were spot on Spanky. I believe there was also a Third Eye Blind reference in regards to RPB.
