Their basic jist was that when you have two all decade team members on the floor, they must have a lot of respect for your game if they aren't bellyaching about the number of touches they AREN'T getting. Maybe this coupled with Sheryl's ongoing back issues is the problem. Is there dissent in Comet's land that is not being seen by outsiders. New owner, new coach, aging stars and a rook at the point who makes poor decisions could make for a looooong summer.

I think that's got something to do with it.

Game on Saturday should be fun … hope this time around someone removes the cellophane from the basket and we control the ball better …
