Hawks Getting Physical

The Atlanta Hawks are not getting any older. With the youngest average age in the NBA, Atlanta selected Sheldon Williams of Duke and Soloman Jones of South Florida. Two senior picks are a departure from the norm for Atlanta. Sheldon and Soloman should provide a physical inside presence, defense and rebounding for the Hawks. At first glance it looks like a good compliment to the skill and athleticism of Joe Johnson, Marvin Williams and the other young Hawks. Now, lets see if they can put it together.

The Grizzlies go Gay.

Who really cares about the NBA Draft anyways.

It was an afterthought as I was exploring my new DirecTV. Satellite is pretty cool so far.

Will Hoover center Pugh decide the Auburn Tigers this morning? It is shaping up to be a decent start for recruiting.

Georgia, best backfield in the country? Seriously, I beg to differ. I would not even say they have the best backfield in the SEC. That is Auburn, Alabama or LSU.

Most talent in the SEC? Florida or LSU followed by Auburn or Georgia? Where does Bama and Tennessee fit in?

Dr., Bama update and Grizz draft analysis? I saw that a few of your Memphis Blue Tigers went high last night.

Diddy, any more interviews?

Ladies, have a nice day. The stunning pics will return once I have internet back at #10. Later on.

daddy - what did you think about the show last night?

I liked Don't do It and Cripple Creek. During Cripple Creek my brother looked over and laughed at how much Shakes would have liked their version of that song. I thought it was pretty funky.

The show as a whole was kind of slow, lots of long jams. which was fine with me but I think some folks wanted some more of their trendy stuff.

Did you enjoy the seats?

I thought Chriss looked really tired and/or stoned.

Rich and Mark Fucking Ford singing is pretty funny but I liked it.

"Don`t fuck with "Da Jesus(Shakes)!!! And don`t you even think about pulling out a piece, man. If you do, I`ll stick it up your ass and pull the trigger until it goes click."

Daddy: "Jesus!?!?!"

Shakes: "You got it man. Don`t Fuck with "Da Jesus."

Yeah I agree with you on how they have come into the jamming much more.

I love how when they jam it's freaking rock, no foo foo fruity prancing around, I'm talking loud, obnoxious rock music.

I also liked the shroom stage setup. With the jamming in and out of songs and the shrooms it was sort of like a brothers' show.

We were in the second tier, nobody really around us, it was nice. I didn't expect to run into y'all. I was drunk and just trying to stay between the bathroom, the beer stand and the seats. I was FFFFF'd up on the drive back into b-ham. So glad I made it

Overall, I'll give the show a 8.6, and that is comparing it to the Fox at a 9.8. I knew they wouldn't play very long so it was a good mix of jams and trendy songs. But I didn't know some of the ones you were talking about

I apologize if I was not supposed to say anything to anyone. When Dr. called me yesterday, I told him that Jana told EY and myself that you and her had picked out a date, and that yall were going to tie the knot at the beach, so yall could move out to El Paso together.

I try to stay away from the rumor stuff...but coming from Jana, I didn`t think it was a rumor. I`m sorry for passing along false information.

I hear ya....Texas is a big lonesome state.

tigernation said...

Right on Dr. I concur with your assesment.

In the words of George Brinson (my room mate's father).........."Shit Bill, I don't know why anybody would get married.....just look at my wife washing those dishes while I drink this beer with you......she'll be on my ass the rest of the night..."you son of a bitch, I washed all those damn dishes while you got drunk with those boys!"........I tell ya Bill, live with somebody, fuck somebody, whatever you have to do...just don't get married.....it's like having a job after your job. You get hassled all day at work, then you come home to get hassled the rest of the night......NEver get married."

Of course he was exaggerating but I think he makes a point. He has been happily married (I guess) for quite a while and I think there is a little truth there.

There is always time to be married and live that life. No need to jump in on a whim. Give it a test drive to be sure.

Sorry for sticking my nose in but I had to share that story.

Good luck daddy

No I don't think it was really a problem. I just tried to look at a message board and it told me to login. I guess when I did that it locked you out?

No big deal, feel free to use it whenever. I'm usually not logged in after about 5:30pm my time.........just don't piss any of those crazy ass posters off!!! Just kidding. Rivals has some of the craziest fans.....way more than Scout.com

I'm w/ the Dr., Daddy, be sure you know it is the right decision...I can tell you from personal experience with my parents and $hakes can tell you what I told him when I was in Auburn about mama crying on her wedding night and the divorce happening two years before my sister and I were told. It won't be worth it down the road. It is completely your decision, just make sure it is the best thing for Daddy!

And I will be a crasher if I don't get invited as well!!!!!!!

Dr., which recruit from Hoover? Pugh?

King of Tigerland said...

oh, Tubs new stadium looks good. It should be a lot louder. Will they completely close in the upper decks in the end zone?

King of Tigerland said...

Concern is out of love, just do what is right for you, Daddy. Just don't do it because you don't want to be alone. Best wishes, as always we will support the decision if that is where your heart and head is at. All have a good 4th weekend.

I am taking off for the field now. I want some more leads before the holiday weekend. Chasing the deal is crazy, but I love the chase and it is addictive...eternal buzzseeker I guess.

Nation, what is the story w/ Russell's bash? I would like to see Trap and all ya'll.

I'd like to call him if you have his number.

Dr., was he the DT or a offensive guard? Pugh committed to Auburn. I bet Hoover's line could compete against a small college team and win 2 out of 3 times. They are basically a college program anyways.

Ladies, have a good one.

tigernation said...

Kingdom I really don't know what to tell you about Russell's thing.

Donny said that Trap would probably not come.

Jay said they were getting up there pretty high with the numbers so he and his wife were reluctant to keep adding people.

Like I said, it will probably be mostly older parents and such, so it will be a low key event. I really don't think they invited many of their friends from high school.

There is a reason he is not asking a bunch of college and high school friends to come but he didn't tell me why.

I left my phone at home today so if you really want his number I'll have to get it later.

ShakeYour$Maker said...

Yes ladies and gentlemen.....Shakes took it to daddy last night, after spliting the first two games.....Shakes put his foot down, and told Daddy..."Don`t fuck with da Jesus" and proceeded to bust a turkey on the first three frames. How sweet it is....Bowling Champion of the World. There is always next week though for Daddy to get another shot at the title belt.

tigernation said...

All I have to say is......you better be glad I live so far away....or you guys would not want to bowl anymore.

Upon further thought kingdom, it's probably not a good idea to call Jay and ask to come to his party. I don't want to seem rude or anything, but it might rub him the wrong way. Especially since he will have to explain it to his wife and mother.

Wish I could help but it really isn't my decision or my party. Sorry man.

tigernation said...

Yeah I have to work also. I think i might close on sunday and go out on the lake though. Then I got tues. off so that is good.

tigernation said...

Well if you are gonna be working tomorrow I'll be ready for some blogging. I'm sure that 4th of July weekend will be pretty slow on the retail side. Most folks around here will be out on the lake
