I'm hoping Chicago is able to resign Eddie Curry. Him and Chandler did wonders for the team this year, and they can only get better. If not, I heard he might sign with basketball hell, aka, the Atlanta Hawks.
Scrooge McSuck - August 4, 2005 04:43 PM (GMT)
Who in their right mind would sign with the Atlanta Fucking Hawks? Maybe if it was 1989 when Dominique Wilkens was around and able to carry the team, but in 2005? HA! HA! HA!

Well, there are at least 9,000 idiots that subject themselves to watching the Hawks attempt to play basketball.

Well, of course some people have hopeful dreams of the Atlanta Hawks winning the NBA Championship, and quite honestly, it's not entirely impossible.
Oh yeah, in other news, the 2008 Winter Olympics will be held in the recently frozen over Hell.

Is it me, or has this been a boring off-season? The only big "signings" this past week were old-man Motumbo staying with Houston and old-man Dale Davis to... wherever.
