JFB to the T Wolves

[Skatastrophy]

As a fairweather Bulls fan, I'm looking forward to being a Timberwolves fan next year. I really like the way their team looks, I get to root for Thibs again, and their front office isn't a complete dumpster fire.

Grain free?  It sounds completely carb free!

It will be a balanced meal. Carbs come from baked beans.

As a fairweather Bulls fan, I'm looking forward to being a Timberwolves fan next year. I really like the way their team looks, I get to root for Thibs again, and their front office isn't a complete dumpster fire.

As a longtime Bulls fan, I refuse to spend a single cent on the team and organization again until John Paxson and Gar Forman are shown the door.  How Paxson still has a job is beyond me.  The only NBA executive with a longer tenures is Pat Riley.  The dynamic duo have consistently overvalued their assets until it was too late, then sold them for pennies on the dollar (see Hinrich, Deng, Korver, Noah, Rose, Gibson, McDermott, etc.).  Then, they finally say they are committing to the youth movement, but then sell their second round pick for cash.  It is all a sham.  They have no clue what they are doing, and have continually tried passing off a grand plan for competitive teams for championships.  And, they treat the media like garbage as well.  And who can forget when Paxson strangled Vinny Del Negro after a game for playing certain players too much?  Absolute disaster in the front office.

I am so glad that Jae didn't get shipped here.  It's bad enough that two Marquette guys won't win here.  We didn't need a third to add to the pain. 

I hope Butler and Thibs rock it in Minnesota.

Idiots...and GarPax prepared to buy out Wade, Rondo and MCW. Gar brought us the Tim Floyd and has put a few NCAA programs on probation. Pax sucker punched his choice of coach. Scum of the Earth.

Gar brought us the Tim Floyd

Uh ... no.

Pink Floyd was a Crumbs production, through and through.

Krause LOVED Tim Floyd. Invited him to his kid's 1997 wedding and didn't invite Jackson, which perfectly captured the irreparable rift between Phil and Crumbs.

When Phil left, the Bulls went through the very transparent charade of "vetting candidates," but the job was Floyd's from Day 1. And then Crumbs convinced Reinsdorf to pay Floyd more than the Bulls ever paid Phil. The whole thing was comical.

So yes, Paxson and Foreman have been pathetic and both should be shown the door. But don't blame them for Tim Floyd.

Reinsdorf has almost always been a loyal and patient guy, so I'd be surprised if, especially, Pax is gone any time soon. Of course, I admit I was totally stunned the day Jerry gave the other Jerry the heave-ho ... so there's always hope for Bulls fans.

My first job out of MU was working in the Bulls front office (ticket sales). I got to talk to Tim Floyd on the phone that day, asked him when Dragan Tarlac was coming over. What a time to be alive that was.

Gar was Floyd's money man at Iowa State and Crumbs scouting toady in Chicago.

OK, but Floyd was Crumbs' guy.

[Spotcheck Billy]

according to some one they showed on the news this morning, Jimmie gave out some one else's number and he's getting a lot of calls

[dw3dw3dw3]

Story was the random guys phone was one digit off. Still getting Jimmy calls.

[MU82]

It's funny ... but I'm guessing that gentleman is not particularly amused.

JFB owes him a nice dinner and two tickets to a game. Seriously.

JFB's house is for sale.
