the callers who are calling up certainly don't help. I wish people from here got through

I find that many people seem to go along with what they are saying. It would be better to have a segment where they are just asking what is going on, where they are moving towards, what these players are like..etc.. instead of having to hardball every single time. I think there was a lot of dissapointment with this season, I think TT did not perform at a level which we needed which hurt the team. I think they made a mistake going after Lenny, but most of all, I think they became prisoners of their own hype--all ball etc.... we will win the atlantic. I think that Isiah scored pretty dm hard here at the deadline. There is still work to be done, no doubt about--an exciting draft and perhaps 1-2 vet moves and some kind of ending with Allan and perhaps moving on with Penny in one more ending contract move[steve francis or a Mike Finley for a back up vet-vet trade? ending contracts?]
The worst thing about them, which other professionals do point out, is how wrong they always are. Dog nevers gets a prediction right, he is clueless. I sometimes wonder how he got where he was. Mike only credibility was that he was friends with Parcells, now that is fading like Parcells legacy with every Super Bowl win by Patriots.
1)They both loved the Mcdyess trade, both said those guys drafted were not quality guys like Mcdyess, yet Nene goes on to have a nice career so far, Butler is damn good, and Stoudamire is an all-star. Their response "everyone wanted to make that trade. besides you did not know about Nene, and Stoudamire."
2)When Shandon Anderson was with the Jazz, Mike said the Knicks had to get this guy no matter what. He went on about Anderson like, he was the second coming, paying tribute to Layden. He doesn't remember when a caller reminded him.
3)And the best one was Nick Collison, Mike dismissed Sweetney as nothing compared to Nick Collison, oh well...
Someone ask Dog if Frank Williams will be better than Marbury. Those guys are jokes. Joe B, used to be good but has sold out to conform.
