Didn't want to go back and find old thread after George trade went down. I do remember a few of us trying to point out it wasn't the fleece job the national folks thought it was. In fact a couple of us tried to say we actually won the trade for year 1 and beyond (after George heads to LA). Small sample size so far but things look good. I might actually get down to a few games this year.

I can't speak to it nationally but I know Dakich has even said himself on air this year that he might be gone eventually. Constant bashing of Colts (right or wrong is a different conversation) has made the folks on 56th st a bit ticked. I'm sure he could do something else so he's not worried about losing local radio gig.

Hopefully this comes across the wrong way. I tune into games (hoops or football) for the games. Not the announcers (2 small exceptions Fischer and Gus Johnson). Somewhere in the early 90's or so I felt many at ESPN actually thought they were the show. Not the games itself. Same could be said for reporters in all walks of journalism. I truly tune out most of what they say anymore. Clay Travis might have a different style but he's been saying this many, many years. As many continue to cut the chord I expect ESPN to continue reduce payroll.

All clear now but still looking for suspects. Hopefully they'll be found.

James Blackmon Jr gets contract with 76ers this morning. Rookie pact. Details not released yet. Hopefully he gets a good chunk.
