low class Orlando media

Talk about some really stupid childish things... I don't recall Det media ever stooping to this kind of low? But I guess when you get old, you become like a child again, so perhaps this is them catering to their demographics.

Re: low class Orlando media

Best thing they can do.... he loves the away crowds being against him... The crowd doesn't get to him ever.... does he get T's for being passionate... heck ya.... IF he got the same rope that James and other star players got though... he'd get 1/10 the T's he did.... Or if the Star players got the Sheed treatment most of them would be missing games by the all star break every year.

Orlando and the community down there is doing everything in there powers to keep detroit interested in the series.... are they really that dumb down there?

I think Barkley should rethink who the stupidest team in the league is.

Re: low class Orlando media

This could actually be seen as flattery. If sheed can dish it out, you gotta know know he can take it. But, since this series isn't considered to be exciting (like the wonderful game between the 2 C's last night), it is a good attempt to get on an ESPN highlight.

Re: low class Orlando media

I guess journalists saw that their fans considered this series to be done so it was decided to fire up homecrowd. No harm done.

I agree. It's all good. Maybe it will even help keep the Pistons awake.

Looks like a sign of desperation to me. Besides, if someone actually understood how to get inside Sheed's head and cause him to behave in a certain way, he's either be the best big man since Wilt or would be out of the league depending on which side the manipulator was on.

Bring it on -- folks have been trying to figure Sheed out for years with no noticable impact. I'm sure a few signs will do it.

Re: low class Orlando media

I wonder if the fans will still be wearing the Sheed masks when they are down 20 in the 4th?

Re: low class Orlando media

Pretty poor "journalism" here. Having worked in a sport department myself, I can tell you that the average IQ isn't real high among management. And no, I was not a part of management.

Re: low class Orlando media

pfff. Right here I am going to guarantee a victory. This is like that videotron of detroit a season ago. The mask idea is great...the execution, totally lame and lacks creativity.
