    Reminds of me of Ingrid Bergman playing Joan de Arc with a Swedish accent.

    Hope that part about Rodney Rogers isn't true.

    McCoskey needs to let it go. He hasn't written a single decent article about the Pistons all year, but he has time to trash Darko. I suppose his next article will be about how poorly Delfino is fitting in Russia.

    The "Fall of Darko" will always be of interest in Detroit. So many folks talked him up... that his crash and burn is all the more interesting.

    I wish him well but he never had the desire or toughness to play in the NBA. He will find his softer place in Europe.

    It's true he was hurt. I haven't seen paralyzed. I remember, when I was in grad school at Duke, I used occasionally to catch Rogers playing games for Durham H.S.

    I need to apologize to all those people here that told me so. It was attitude and mindset all along.

    But his play draws fouls.

    Darko may make the news tomorrow. After getting a bad foul call, plus a quick tech, Darko goes to the bench and does his incredible Hulk imitation by ripping his jersey apart.

    He also posted a pretty good stat line: 11 minutes, 5 points, 5 boards, and 5 personal fouls.

    When I was a kid we used to have these huge pennants hanging in our basement featuring the Peanuts gang members.

    The bright orange Linus one said..."It doesn't matter what you believe as long as you're sincere". That's 16 mile and bball Jay. I always think of that pennant whenever they talk about Darko.

    but how in the world did he rip the jersey at once? In the vid it looks as if he only tears the collar but somehow the whole jersey is torn

    No, I saw it and he tore it in one pull. He just ripped it with seemingly no effort at all. It was on LP and obviously torn in one "swell foop".

    I understand his frustration but will not go into it now, for obvious reaons.

    Anyway, the Grizzlie charities will benefit, including the children's hospital in Memphis.

    It's all good.

    He got 35 late nite 10 boards 13 pts and a win. On 5 of 11 shooting with ~4 fouls.
    Let's see how long he keeps those minutes.
