Anyone see the Donaghy book excerpts? Wow.
My copy of The Book of Basketball came today, which is great because now it gets to spend all night sitting on my desk mocking me while I study and do class work.

yea i did...
ya know, i dunno. i've always fought against the "the nba is rigging it" thing with the "they're not rigging it, all refs just suck" argument... but even i'm begining to slip a little on that thought.
i still don't believe that darth stern is sitting in his manhattan office sending out edicts to refs to rig the game... but i do believe that a lot of refs take it upon themselves to influence outcomes, or at the very least single out specific players & coaches.
the donaghy stuff has to be taken with a grain of salt, of course... but as a high school basketball coach i know, for a fact, that this stuff goes on on this level... i've personally witnessed a group of ref's sitting around a table at a resturant talking about coaches that they didn't like, and seen it in action... so i'm begining to think heck... if they can do it at that level, why not at every level?
i dunno... this stuff could be all made up, but at the very least i hope some change for good comes from it.
i wish they printed bill simmons' book of basketball on Charmin, so that i could wipe my ass with it.
The Charlotte Babka had a nice scoring half spread out over 48 minutes last night.

Hmm...Rondo is on the Celtics. Simmons is a Celtics fan. Pattern?
cleveland fans must be shitting in their boots at the thought that non-elected dictator james will be making his lone visit to new york in the midst of a championship parade the likes that no other city in america is capable of throwing.

You've not seen how Mayor Menino can do a "wolling wally" through the "shitty of Boston" with Duck Boats and "Jumbletroms".
