re: Tj slowly putting non believers and haters 2 rest

I'm with you Trout. I've been going to football, bball, and baseball my whole life, and I can only remember bball back to CJ's first year and I'm thankful for that. Seeing Shaq and Stanley w/ CJ was unforgettable. I loved the Livingston and Henderson yeas as well w/ Ceasar and some other decent players thrown in from time to time. Other than that, I'd have to say the best years since then are the sweet 16 w/ Bright/Swift/Smith/BB/Roland, and the final 4 year, although it sucked freezing my arse off in Indy to watch them flop ag. UCLA. I'm always in hopes of a big name guy coming and turning it around, and it'll happen one day. It just won't be the same as what we call the glory days even though our glory days are probably different.

With all of that said, mediocrity has been accepted here and it's b/c the players come and go so quickly. If you're not Kansas, UNC, Duke, or Kentucky, it's hard to bring the 5 stars in w/o cheating, and even they cheat.
