The thing is...who cares?


It's the National Hokey League.

I agree it's meaningless. Doesn't explain your infatuation with obliterating the frozen one every single opportunity you get. If you really don't care why the infatuation with the frozen one?? Don't understand that.

I do agree with Bid the late 80s/early 90s Cavs were a better team without question, but the problem with that team is they never stayed healthy. Price and Daugherty were extremely fragile and it was rare when they were healthy together for extended periods. After breaking out in '89 with 57 wins they then won only 42 in '90 and 33 in '91 with Daugherty missing much of '90 and Price missing most of '91. So they had lost seasons interspersed between their good seasons due to injury. They then won 57 in '92 and 54 in '93.

Those teams won playoff series' in only two seasons...'92 and '93. So the '91 team that won 33 games would wipe up Brown teams Bid?? Of course not.

I honestly think you under rate Brown...they overperfromed this year...they were outscored...should have been sub .500, they weren't. They overachieved. I felt they played well in postseason compared to how they finished the year. I wasn't sure they'd get out of the first round and they had a legit shot to beat a 66 win team in game 7 on the road in the Eastern semis.

IN a couple years the frozen one and Brown will be gone, then we'll see some success I guess. :confused:

My previous post will likely be my last Cavs post of the year Mortimer and Bid. I'm sure you're all quite broken up about that!! :D :D I've been vaproized so many times I'll need some time off til next October or at least August when LeBron blows the gold medal for USA :) :)

Of more pertinent importance is the awesomely prolific Indians offense this year. Hey Bid?? Did Mike Brown become the Indians hitting coach this year or something?

Mortimer 05-21-2008 07:22 AM

Is there a way I can sell you a doorknob today?

The Bid 05-21-2008 08:18 AM

Brown - Hands down worst assistant coach in the league
Lebron - Hands down worst coach in the league

The Indians offense is disturbing. At least they got rid of Michaels who stunk up the joint. They would probably be 5 games more to the good if Wedgy wouldnt have insisted on playing that stiff while he was in the majors

I'm glad he's gone..probably would have caught Thome's homer last night because he owned the Sox..
but I guess that was all he was doing right...

The Bid 05-21-2008 08:33 AM

The more I watch Delucci the easier it is to see why Wedge was coinflipping on who to play. Delucci has some terrible at bats, and seems to be lost

I know you and MoAv were shredding Cronk earlier, but I can't believe what has happened to him. Probably one of the Top 5 feared hitters in the AL 2-3 years ago, and now this?? wow

Wedge...destroyer of young talent.



Hafner is a walking has been.

i am aging too fast then

you're right...sh*t can his butt..thought he still might have been salvageable
