Tuesday, November 18, 2008 - Basic Arithmetic

-Rogers has been taking a lot of heat from Raptors fans for the TSN2 controversy, and with Sunday's game against the Miami Heat being the first of what will be 25 games aired exclusively on the network, I sure don't envy the folks working at their customer service call centers.
-Albert Pujols wins his second NL MVP award despite the Cardinals' 4th place finish and despite Ryan Howard's monster numbers for the World Series Champs. I think you get the point that I'm trying to make.
-I'm calling it right here, Kevin Youkilis of the BoSox wins AL MVP this year. Well, that's who I would have chosen anyhow.
-It's been four games and Pacman Jones is still awaiting the reply of commissioner Roger Goodell to be re-instated into the NFL.
-Mark Cuban gets caught pulling a "Martha Stewart" in a civil suit, so no jail-time - and somewhere Bud Selig is grinning. A perfect reason not to sell him the Cubs.
-Shaq has always been one of the more confident sports personalities, but his recent remarks on him and Kobe being the best Lakers duo ever, definitely puts him over the top. Sorry Shaq, but basic math tells me that 5 'chips is greater than 3, so I'm giving the nod to Magic and Kareem.
-Former Orangeman, Demetris Nichols was waived by the Chicago Bulls yesterday. I always hate to see any player out of 'cuse cut.
-Don Cherry was up to his usual Canuck slurping antics on Coaches Corner, with this nearly predictable quote regarding Brian Burke possibly coming to the Leafs: "We'll finally get some Canadians on this club and win some games"

Forget what I said about PTI full epi's in the last entry, that's only for insider's apparently...
