Collison raking 'em in

If the Lakers had Collison they would probably go undefeated!

It might be good for people to remember here's a kid Ben Howland recruited and coached, taught him his (Howland's) system, insisted on a tight man-to-man and delivered him to the draft NBA-ready. Only one example.

Mr. Ryerson,

Thank you for your cogent point about a singular example of Coach Howland's philosophy and program.

Hey, you're doing my work for me. A tip of the reasonable hat for your point, sir!

Quiet, Voice of Reason!

I thought we ran you off all sports message boards and blogs years ago!

It's my pleasure. No, no, really, it's my pleasure. Now if these stiffs can only win a couple more games.

how very important.

Mr. Droog,

While I was verbally tarred and feathered lo those many years ago, I, like the Phoenix, have spring from the ashes.

By the way, what exactly is a Droog, and why does it need to be reformed?

Sincerely,
VofR

Droog is from "A Clockwork Orange." The droogs ("friends") are the members of the gang to which the main character belongs. Since our blog friend here is a reformed droog, I would imagine he doesn't take too well to classical music.

Anything but the Ludwig Van...
