I was great in the third, fifth and 11th grades. The rest, not so much.

That`s very good. It`s the odd # grades that are tough. They introduce new concepts and skills. The even # grades reinforce those skills and concepts.

At least that`s what some teacher friends tell me.

My mom says I am a good boy.

On the question of Tivo/DVR as they relate to TV ratings, one of my friends said he recently participated in a ratings survey for a week, and he was told to include stuff they were TiVo-ing to watch later. So it seems that factor does get taken into account.

I'm not saying the questions aren't hard. I'm saying if the kids (and the shark) are pulling in more viewers than LeBron, then those kids need to get better agents, because I haven't seen any interviews with any of them where they state "my goal is to become the first 5th grade zillionaire".

You're killin' me Linwood.

Chat's open for Game 2.

Just watched my local news sport section where they said it is half time now and the score is Spurs 58 - Cavs 33. Cavs are a bunch of losers. I guess this is the perfect situation where people really want to see the Piston plays because we all know they can always get out of that hole in the 3rd quarter.

And the Pistons lost to those stupid losers.

I used to say "I'm sorry Flip you have done a great job here, but I want a new coach in here".

F that. Here is what I really think "You suck Flip. You couldn't win for 10 years in Minnesota. First I thought KG was the one not living up to the hype, but now I think you are the reason that he has never won a ring in his career. You have done nothing here in Detroit. Yeah everyone should of expected the Pistons to be a little bit worse in coaching after losing LB, but not this much of a drop off. You do the same thing with the bench, let them rot on the sideline. You make no adjustments and you are to scared to get in these players faces. Get out of here before you make this team have no defense. Just leave."

I totally agree himat, but Flip shouldn't get all the blame. I think it says a lot about the players on the team too.

They always have an excuse whether it's the coach, tired legs, the refs, the rules, you name it. It's embarrassing that Cleveland crushed us and in turn they are getting humiliated by the Spurs.
