Yeah.
That's what I meant by "not the same...."

Can you picture a Michael Jordan highlight against the Pistons. [They showed it a lot over the years.]

MJ drives the middle of lane and goes up with his right...
He is fouled while holding the ball...
Still hanging, MJ switches the ball to his left...
He scores and then goes to the line.

The Bulls wouldn't play the Pistons in the NBA Championship as they are both in the Eastern Conference.

However, the play you refer to did happen in the NBA Finals against the Lakers. And he didn't get fouled.

But hey, otherwise spot on!

YouTube - Michael Jordan switches hands best quality

I believe you are correct and that I kicked another one.
Thanks, PA Coach!

To me it's politics which doesn't belong here.

Then how do you feel about references to specific religions?

As a 'comical' tag line? No.

And your point is??

In case you haven't noticed, Padgett often has no point.

Nice!!!!!

I expect a rebuttal to the above, but it probably won't have a point, either.

I'm with fullor on this, for the record. Unless the moderators want to open this board up to political discussion....

I disagree. Mark's his tag line professes no political leaning. It simply states a fact.

Hmmm....

Over-moderating, or under-moderating... .

Bull _ _ _ _

We don't need implied political leanings here, there are plenty of sites for that.

Only two presidents to be impeached were democrats, Andrew Jackson and William Jefferson Clinton. Just a fact.

Just like officiating, Mick. You can only please 50% of the people, 50% of the time...on a good day.
