When I Turn Around, Will You Please Pull The Knife Out Of My Back? -TOMP



Fuck Yes,You Betrayed me

Be prepared. What you're looking at are two, soon-to-be NBA players.  Why two and not three, you ask?  We'd have to go with option A.  Where only one of these three gentlemen is ready to make the jump to the Baller association.  J.Flynn has got sick handle, a wicked cross-over and mean dribble/drive, but he's a little under six feet tall and he's the potential lottery lock!  To examine the mistake that Eric 'The Pride of the Tri-City Area" Devendorf & "Do It All" Paul Harris are making, we have to take a look at where they're coming from.

Devendorf:  Boatload of tats, a semi woman-beater, a whole lot of class and a personality that would make Malibu's Most Wanted proud. Yup, a true winner.  Plays defense on level with the effort that Allen Iverson brings to the table, sans the three steals a game.  Has had about the same effect on the NCAA game (especially the defensive side) as Rashard McCants. Pretty sure he was best known for dating a socialite (super slam spoiled bitch) who may or may not have had some work done (ask any male member of the Syracuse 2008 graduating class for an update). Oh, wait he's a dad. How's that one working out?

Harris: This guy had more potential than... well... uh.... any other overhyped baller who couldn't shoot a jump shot or come through in the clutch (see BG and X number of lay-ups missed in multi-OT game vs. UConn).  It has really been a shame to see him come up so flat for this length.  Its really wild how players like Harris boast so much potential and skill, when really that definition turns out to be a guy that no one can coach, because he believes he can take over a game on his own since everyone has been telling him his entire life that's what he was raised to do.  It commits an unfair amount of potential to a guy, and its sad to see when thats still being exploited (can you tell which one I'm talking about?) in hopes of unlimited potential down the line. Oh, wait. He knocked a girl up too. Ugh....  Oh, Hey; Did I say 'potential?'

In the end, this is truly just discouraging to see.  Harris & Devendorf could really improve their overall games by staying for that last year.  The turmoil of potential injury is an overwhelming factor in this decision for both of them I'm sure. Especially with E.D. who really hasn't been as much of a slasher this year from the torn ACL.

Bottom Line: This blows, but good luck to all three.

In other sporting news Tiger Woods & Phil "Vertical Stripes" Mickelson put on one of the most impressingly useless shoot outs in golf history. The two were going at each others throats and couldn't even manage to place higher than fifth.  They were both dead set on going balls to the wall on one of the most astonishing days during the PGA tour season, but both fell incredibly short with bogeys during the last two holes. 

I'm not going to say the sudden death playoff was not an interesting effect, but grandpa Hagan was out like a light during a black out.  I suppose it was a good thing to see Cabrera  take his second major (and overall tourney win) as his easy going approach to the game.  Kind of gives perspective on how we should feel when we're hitting the links and how F-ing sweet he is when has it turned on like a bachelor in the middle of a Vegas pentouse on the house.

We're looking at a do or die right now for the sluggish Pistons.  Talk about a team that could care less.  I'm getting sick of them. They play Chicago tonight, and need the win to slip back the 7 slot, so they can face the ever depleted, small big manned Celtics.  Let me tell you, when Big Baby has to start taking over in the paint, you are in some serious trouble.  It may even be the equivalent of Allen Iverson bitching harder than eight bitches in a bitch boat so that he can sit out the rest of the season, declare that he'd love to be a STARTER for another NBA time and pick up the yoga skills so he can slob on his knob like corn on the cob.

BREAKING NEWS: MVP DRAFTED

In case you missed it, the WWE draft was held tonight.  The #1 overall pick? You guessed it. MVP is on the move. That's right, Montel Vontavious Porter is getting his ass out of that bullcrap, Smackdown, and moving on to the glory lights of RAW!!!  For those not educated in the art of WWE, this is the equivalent of Kurt Warner realizing that God was the answer and making his move to the Rams, replacing Trent Green who mysteriously suffered a season ending injury.  Be prepared for a summer full of training in the event that MVP makes a run for the Royal Rumble, and better yet, the 'Mania, XXVI.  Of course, he could always just end up as the Intercontinental Champion.
