Expected the move to Las Vegas for a while now.

Do you think it's a prerequisite that you have to bang him to make the roster?

trying to figure out if that's supposed to be the "casting couch" or not...

That's exactly what it is.

as a former fan of the Browns who saw them leave for Baltimore- its a shame.

Oakland Raiders have a lot of history.

What do you become now? A 49ers fan? a Rams fan? or stay with the Raiders?--- of course they move as soon as they get studs like Carr, Cooper, Mack (though they are staying for 2 more years right?)

 

[WiggyRuss]

aww look....thats where you were conceived so many years ago....

I've asked myself this same question the last few years with the rumor of the Rays leaving Tampa, I live about 20 minutes away from the stadium, I usually go to 10-15 games a year, and they've been my favorite team for the better part of my life (was a Giants fan growing up because we had no team and I loved Bonds.)

My favorite player in the game right now is Bryce Harper, and I think if the Rays move out of state, I'll be inclined to just root for him and the Nationals, which would suck.

Everyone shits on Tropicana field, but with the humidity here and the fact baseball is played mainly in the summer, it's really nice to be able to go to an air conditioned game, the only people that ever complain about the Trop are people that don't live here, or go to games.

It's a shame about the Raiders though. Just as they're getting good they leave. Great for Vegas but terrible for Oakland. Still it would be awesome if the Raiders can win a Super Bowl before they leave Oakland.

Did you really pay $100 just to have a green thing that says "Supporting Member Level 3"?

You must be a baller, respect.

It was just $75 for a year.

Got me a much needed 2k in SportsHoopla cash and I have NO ADS interrupting my experience here on tHoop....that's a key benefit for us that contributed. Not a fan of the color green but hey, I don't care.

 

[WiggyRuss]

That doesn't surprise me. After all the only person that doesn't know they are struggling right now is wiggy.

i know they are "struggling" right now

i just dont think it matters.

IF you don't think playing bad matters (approaching end of the season), then why all the long winded greatness spam posts when they appeared to be playing well earlier in the season?

How about an avi/vcash bet on tonights game?
I'll take Spurs.

because its fun to watch Kyrie Irving kick ass and establish himself as one of the best in the game. Its fun to watch Kevin Love play his best basketball as a Cav. Its fun to watch LeBron James get more triple doubles this year then he has in the last 5 combined. Its fun to watch LeBron set CAREER HIGHS in assists and rebounds. Its fun to watch guys like Kyle Korver shoot 50% from 3

but--- as fun as that stuff is.....

it doesnt mean a thing until the REAL NBA season starts. Cavs will have time to rest, practice, and get everyone going. They are gonna beat the shit outta the East as usual- No series will go 7. Id say the lose a combined 4-6 games throughout the 3 rounds.
