Around SBN: Todd Haley Is The Steelers Next Offensive Coordinator

Checking In From Sin City

Well, it's hot. I suppose that meets expectations, considering it's the desert and all. Not that I'm complaining, but this Midwestern boy will take 4 seasons over constantly dry and 90 any year of my life.

Of course, I didn't come for the weather. I'm here to watch Corey Brewer, Jonny Flynn, Wayne Ellington and the cast of contract-hopefuls (plus Messieurs Oleksiy Pecherov and Bobby Brown) get some run in NBA licensed apparel. Here's the agenda:

  • Friday, July 17 (today): Wolves v. Wizards at 5pm PST (7pm CST). I'll post a recap tonight.
  • Saturday, July 18: Wolves v. Hornets at 3:30pm PST (5:30 CST). A recap will follow.
  • Saturday night I'll be talking with Neil Olstad of TWolvesBlog, so look for a link once they post it.
  • Sunday, July 19: Wolves v. Bulls at 3pm PST (5pm CST). You guessed it, a recap.
  • I'll be tweeting here and there about the Wolves and other games I happen to catch.
  • As interviews come and go, I'll try to get them up on the site ASAP. I'm hoping to talk to at least David Kahn and the three guys mentioned above.
Any suggestions on fun to have in Vegas or Wolves-related questions are more than welcome. Can't wait to lose my life savings to a chicken in tic-tac-toe

If you see Antoine Walker...

Make sure he pays his gambling debt. There are warrants out for his arrest.

by Flagrant-II on Jul 17, 2009 2:49 PM CDT reply actions  

They already arrested him

in Reno a day or two ago. From the high stakes area at a casino no less.

Am I right that the Vegas game is on in 2hours?

Any streams yet? Any threads opening up?

Well, it's Vegas...

He’s either desperately trying to cover his losses, having breakfast with his new bride, in jail, or all of the above….Where is Poordick? He’s got to have some good material in speculating on Wyn’s whereabouts.

A can't-miss component of any Vegas trip:

Hitch hike out to see the Hoover Dam. It’s been the highlight for me every time I’ve been out there.

Rooting for a Rubio Revolucion since roughly 10:20 a.m. on June 24th, 2009

Where was Corey?

He didn’t play today and I was looking forward to seeing him not being able to watch the first two games that much. Did something happen to him, or did they just not play him for no reason?

by KGMN on Jul 18, 2009 3:31 PM CDT reply actions  

They said up front that Corey would only be playing a little bit.

I hate Pod Six. I don't even know why we have a Pod Six. Total suck pod.
