Well, you can't call it a moral victory. Heat 92, Pistons 65.

F1RSTARD

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!

This team blows. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

I met a traveler from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look upon my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

There once was a lady from Wheeling
Who had a terrible feeling.
She laid on her back,
Opened her crack,
And peed all over the ceiling.

These Pistons would be great at old school girls basketball where you play three players on offense and three players on defense. Ben, Jonas, and Tay on defense, Charlie V, Rip, and Stuckey on offense. Too bad you only play 5 players and they have to play on both ends of the court. Ugh.

Next time Joe Dumars talks about the playoffs he should be forced to take a drug test.

Wow, just looked at the box score … did we really get outrebounded 52-25?

Dammit, Joe Dumars!
Last night was embarrassing.
First Darko, now this?

this bad since the pre-G Hill days. Out rebounded 52-25?
Ick and Bleech!

ANDRE MILLER SCORED 52 POINTS LAST NIGHT?!?! That’s impressive for a point guard who can’t run or jump.

the cold wind blows grass
outside the Palace. Inside,
shots just will not fall

I am a Piston fan to the core and there is no reason to have such short memories. Joe D has made his mistakes but he had the Pistons contending for a title for six years straight. Too many fans have short term memories and say Joe D should be fired. After that long of a run there is going to be a transistion period. Not realizing that is unrealistic.

Those for the most part worked out. Charlie V not so much, but that is just for the time being. He is young and bound to get better.

Picking up Sheed was a risk and could have blown up in his face. You gotta take risks to get better. They all don’t work out, but you have to try.

A man can dream. That was a glass half full statement. Unfortunatley you might be right, the glass may never fill and start to evaporate into thin air.
If Charlie V doesn’t realize that his natural size/frame won’t cut it he will be doomed. Hit the weightroom CV and hit it with Big Ben, he will show you how its done.

and paid to play a rather contact game like Basketball, in Detroit, and somebody handed me a goddamn briefcase of money and hand picked me out of a class of free agents-

I would do everything I could to put on muscle, go out there and get waylay everybody I could, every night. It seems only right… go have a conversation with Arnie Kander.

Sometimes these dudes are so candy…. you said “Charlie V is here” and that you were in effect going to replace Rasheed Wallace. Well fucking go out there and do it then.

Every time Mark Jackson talks I realize again how fucking stupid he is.
