Wow, Bissinger (the jerk, hope I got his name right), is so passionate in his ‘crusade’ that he makes a fool of himself in front of the cameras dropping F-bombs because… he does not like blog sites? Specifically ones about sports?
So high and mighty - impressive. Really, ignorance of that caliber is impressive. I could not stomach watching the whole clip, just trying to analyze that sad mentality made my head hurt.

While I must say that Mr. Bissinger is quite a jerk… I would never say to Lindsey Hunter that he shouldn’t be playing… but he shouldn’t. I don’t see how it can be so offensive to athletes to read negative things about them by no names with a bad nickname. I mean Jeter got booed in Yankee stadium… There was that guy who made himself famous heckling Jordan. I can only imagine what people yell at lebron when they’re drunk at a stones game. Why would you care so much about a blog? As for the private life thing… I agree that people shouldnt snoop in peoples private life but really I think it’s societies problem that we have false conceptions of people. The president is an infallible agent of the lord almighty. He doesnt get diahrrea or BJ’s from his wife. Melo got a DUI after one of his worst performances of the season… that wasnt bloggers. Id rather have lienart who might have been drinking during the offseason or off days. Although I think he is a little to old for bongs and or kegstands. But thats his perogative. Either way the only reason I came to this site and started “bloging” is because the traditional news media wasnt giving me all the information I needed. Sometimes people say stupid things, I know I do it a lot, but even if you took away all the user comments from this site I still think it would blow away the coverage of any newspaper that covers the pistons. All the traditional sites I go to have “blogs” by sportswriters now and have user “boards” where people can write whatever they want. I come here because there are LESS morons than at the traditional media. I feel like I actually have a voice… albiet a small one.
I hope Phil Saunders is just a poser or someone with the same last name but no relation. I don’t personally hate your relative Flip. The strong comments I make are an emotional reaction to my perception of his incompetence on the job. If you don’t like the papperazzi don’t be a movie star or move to bolivia. If you do know flip please tell him some of the constructive critism that we have leveled against him. We both want the same things… for him to succed. To do that I just think he needs to learn to make better adhustments, diagram better plays, manage his rotation better, and most importantly of all man up, demand respect, earn respect, and fire up your team.

I want 2 minutes for Herrmann, so he can hit a three in garbage time, like always.

Records in close-out games have to be the most overrated stat EVER. If you’ve won 3 games in a playoff series, you’re likely the better team. And if you’re the better team, you’re MOST LIKELY to win the game. Hence the Pistons 11-3 record.

After a careful analysis taking into account all of the expert opinion of others it seems that the Pistons best rotation which will give them the best chance to win the Title is

Starters
———–
Tay
C-Bill
Sheed
Maxiell
Rip

Bench
———–
Afflalo
Dyess
Stuckey
Johnson

DNP
——–
Hunter
Ratliff
Herrmann
Dixon
Hayes
Samb

@Phil “Flip” Saunders:

Good luck to you and the team tonight. Do whatever you did to get the guys playing well in Game 5 (if you did anything at all. Which I doubt). If you need to use that same line again, go for it.

Oh, and please put Amir in for a few minutes, just to shut us up.

@phil: you should get a picture of Flip tattooed to the back of your eyelids. That would be awesome.

“I didn’t even know about the switch until I got here and was told that they had one. Last night, I asked them to turn the switch on at 7:00, and that seemed to work.”

Great quote by Flip. This guys got it all: inteligence, savy, charm, humour. Bless his heart.
