What Is Wrong With Martellus Bennett? Coonery!
WHY? What is wrong with this dumbass? This guy makes Hurricane Chris rapping about Halle Berry in the Louisiana state legislature a proud moment for Black people. Why is it that young Black people have to be so stupid? Why? This is why I want to give birth control away. If I hit the lotto I'm, doing it.
This is ignorant on so many levels I can't even take the time to gather my thoughts and not ramble. This is the kind of shit that gives credence to these stereotypes and accompanying prejudices. I hope a linebacker watches that shit before a game and knocks the shit out of him and then tells his dumbass why he knocked the shit out of him. As a matter of fact DeMarcus Ware (his teammate) should do it in training camp!
I ask again WHY?!?!?!?!

is candace parker's brother enough?
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4324074
does it suck to be referred to as the brother of the world's best female basketball player?
anyway we have all said that lebron definitely need help at the two spot....and got it. is it enough....i think this is a titlte winning pickup prior to the lakers getting artest and the celts getting sheed (and the spurs and magic pickups too)....anthony parker is a great talent but i don't know if he is a game changer.... he shoots > 40% from 3 and led the lead last year in field goal % not including dunks/lay-ups (this is HUGE for the cavs) at 58%.
one question is who starts.....i would move mo to true PG as he played in with the bucks and obviously using bron to bring the ball up too, sit delonte, and start parker. this pretty much goes back to the other question regarding the cavs, how will the COY coach this new team (lebron on 5 will not get it done).....
also i am guessing alot of people will not know this guy and say right off the back it isn't enough....you have to couple this dude's pickup with the fact in played in toronto so no one really saw him play....sort of like people's new found respect for gasol's game (obviously parker is not a gasol talent but still he may be better than he was with the raptors); other examples of this includes hedo and lewis with the magic (those guys have been good but now they are allstars)....

no interest in AI....why?
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4323159
a few questions regarding this article.....
do you believe wade when he says he would welcome AI or was he just being politically correct and nice? they play the same position--this would be worst than him being at detroit because at least he and hamilton were not the same player so you could possibly entertain playing them together although it did not work out....with wade and AI they are the SAME DUDE essentially with one being older and shorter.
do you think AI can play in memphis? would he like what the city of memphis offers (maybe he doesn't care) and could he and mayo co-exist....they are the EXACT same player---more similar in height than he and wade.
another interesting thing is how these guys go from making $20M for like 4-5 yrs and then down to under $5M....people don't understand but this is how athletes go broke....some guys do not PROPERLY anticipate aging and the lowered salary....if he is living off bills accumulating to $14M, he was doing more than fine the last 4 years but what happens when you still have that lifestyle and your pay dips....i think this is why alot of boxers get in trouble money-wise....as a beginner they go from $10k-50,000k purses per fight for the first 3 years they make a name for themselves, then during their peak and pay-per view status they earn 1-20M purses, and then they get old (lose 4 fights in a row) and back down to $500K-1M (with that being linked moreso to name recognition than talent).....that's why alot of those guys can never truly walk away (BILLs)....you see similar things in other sports but not as badly because your salary has some long-termness to it....i.e. latrell sprewell. spree thought for some reason at his age he should have gotten more than $2M offer to play when the year before he was getting $17M from the knicks....so he retired and was broke shortly thereafter.....hopefully guys are getting smarter....every time something like this happens....i think regardless of what the media and public says these guys take note....the celts want to offer marbury the minimum i think around $2M and he is like you know what, "i may take my skills overseas." the dude has a jet to pay for i believe....
all in all i find it interesting that AI's value is now < $5M. it is also interesting that people keep trying to fit him into a PG role....i love AI's game----AT SG. the olympic team, early philly, denver, detroit, even georgetown showed you that he is not a true PG (when you think about it, marbury is a better distributor than he is) so why do folks keep trying.
actually who would be a good fit for iverson.....i think teams with true PGs (if you have any scoring at the either guard position i don't know if iverson at this point helps you)---philly, suns maybe, dallas maybe, toronto maybe. ANOTHER PROBLEM IS PLAYING AN UNDERSIZED SG ON D.
