if you think Digweed has trouble finding places willing to pay him you're more stupid than I ever imagined.


Posted by Zild on Sep-17-2007 01:13:

I don't see what's stupid. If someone pays him to come back he will come back.

Dates will continue to be purchased in lots for a large sum of money and then distributed to the region somewhat evenly between SA and Austin (as well as Houston, Dallas, New Orleans, etc).

Digweed goes where he's told.

Do you ever get tired of being the forum douchebag?

He showed up mid-way through my set so he never heard the guy that played vocal trance before me. He gave me a couple "thumbs ups" during the end of my set and thanked me for opening correctly, so I doubt that was an issue.

The sound wasn't crisp, but wasn't horrific either. I think he was just more annoyed at the mixer setup than anything.

Nothing happened to write off a whole city.

thanks for clearing that up, i was starting to feel bad for s.a.


Posted by davemolina on Sep-17-2007 06:25:

Dude, I feel you on that. I feel bad for SA...just for different reasons.


Posted by shaw on Sep-17-2007 14:40:

...like not having any professional sports teams. I know...


Posted by davemolina on Sep-17-2007 14:46:

On the day we finally get one, I hope Fred McGriff is their coach.

you have a basketball team?

I understand your jealousy.


Posted by shaw on Sep-17-2007 15:57:

4/9 = .44
6/8 = .75

if you take away the year Jordan wasn't there, you get .86. If you consider the fact that he only came back the following year for the last 17 games, you get 1.00. Throw in the fact that your first one was in a strike-shortened season, and you have .33 vs. 1.00. Yeah, I'm so jealous.

Take your 'dynasty' talk somewhere else. 3 titles in 8 full seasons. Whoopdy do.


Posted by shaw on Sep-17-2007 16:00:

also, hijack successful.


Posted by Zild on Sep-17-2007 16:05:

Yeah and you were like 5 years old when that happened? Oh and we are still not done. Timmy has a few left in him and the Bulls have long since turned to shit.

The dynasty talk stays and don't tell me you're not jealous because you most definitely are. Like I said. I understand.


Posted by davemolina on Sep-17-2007 16:07:

I love how every Rockets fan immediately goes to the "If Jordan wasn't there" argument...

I went to a lot of those games, & remember them all vividly (including Jordan's first home game back after retiring (v.1)...and no, I wasn't 5, grandpa.

I don't know if you noticed, but the Bulls haven't had a losing season since '03, and have the best young lineup in the NBA.

Even if the Spurs win the next 2, back-to-back...that'll be, what, 6 in 12 years, with only one 3-peat. Again, 6 in 8 years, two 3-peats. Also to note, the Spurs have had Duncan for that entire time, unlike the Bulls who didn't have Jordan for 2 seasons...coincidentally, the only two in which they didn't win the championship.

4 championships in 9 years is a very good decade, since it's well above the normal odds, based on the number of teams. However, let's look at a few numbers:

Bulls:
5/8 seasons with 60+ wins
Spurs:
2/9 seasons with 60+ wins (including the prorated total from 99)

Bulls:
.798 winning percentage
Spurs:
.712 winning percentage

Bulls:
72 wins (69, 67 in other seasons)
Spurs:
63 wins (60, 59 in next best)

Bulls:
.775 playoff winning %
Spurs:
.657 playoff winning %

Bulls:
two separate 3-peats
Spurs:
never won 2 in a row


We can keep going, but this is like Tyson/Savarese.

...and I'm not at all jealous of people who root for a team that relies solely on the wife of its above-average point guard for tv ratings.


Posted by Zild on Sep-17-2007 17:59:

This never was about the Bulls w/MJ. This is about the Spurs being the best dynasty at the moment. You trying to deny they are even a team seems to say you're jealous that your team isn't playing so well right now. I fail to see why the ratings matter. But I do understand how it would be boring to watch your team lose over and over for a decade to a team coming from one of the smallest media markets.


Posted by davemolina on Sep-17-2007 18:05:

Can I yell out "Burn!!!" right now or should I wait till later?


Posted by shaw on Sep-17-2007 18:08:

no, the media market has nothing to do with it. I know you don't frequent the sports forum, but it's full of my rants about the BS from ESPN and others about just covering the teams they care about.

I'm not jealous of anybody, because the Bulls are winning now & it's exciting to watch. I was merely referring to:

1. The Spurs are NOT a dynasty. 'Dynasty' implies domination & a clear, indisputable difference between something or someone and all others. When you never even win twice in a row, you can not be considered a 'dynasty.' No exceptions.

2. They're boring to watch. I'm all for fundamentals, but the fact is that it's just not exciting at all when there's no flare, no ups or downs, & no emotion. It's like watching a really tall WNBA team, with a designated flopper & another dirty player thrown in for good measure.



...and again, you're not paying attention if you think I'm mad that my team is losing. Look at the standings, & watch a couple games. Ironically, there is potential for a dynasty on that roster, as it's comprised of a bunch of very young, very good players who have nothing but upside, and are already winning consistently.
