"In the latest twist, the Packers have filed tampering charges with the league office against the Minnesota Vikings for alleged communication with Favre, still technically a member of Green Bay, FOXSports.com has learned. The league, according to a source, is currently in information-gathering mode, speaking to members of both teams."

This is a bit troubling...What are you thoughts?

It looks like the Clippers just lost Brand, haha suckers.  And now they have Baron at the point with Brevin Knight as his backup. 

That said, do you think they'll still give up on Shaun Livingston?  To retain him they'd have to pay around 5 mil i think for the season, and I hear that they'd rather cut him loose because theyre wary about paying him so much if he can't contribute right away.

If they don't, I really think that the suns should go hard for this kid, really get in the mix to give him a one year minimum deal to prove himself again.  It would be a move with huge upside potential, and put the Suns in a position to fill a drastic need with a play-making pg.

This is obviously a hypothetical in terms of feasibility at the moment, but he passed his recent physical and has been cleared to play, and i'm really excited about this guy.  What do you think?  Any other ideas for a backup pg?  I'm really not happy about this tyronne lue idea - being shaq's friend doesn't make you good at your job.

Let's dooo it!

We picked him up off waivers from the Lions last year, and he was an EXCELLENT special teams player for the second half of the season (if anyone was paying attention).  But with the addition of Boulware, Tyrell, and even Sapp, we're probably not going to be able to keep him on board.

R.I.P. to the third member of the special teams triumvirate

Farwell, Ciurciu, and.... ?

Who will we call upon to replace this man's selective brilliance?...!!

If we keep him, which looks fairly likely at this point, how do you think he's going to respond to the regime change?

A lot was made of his nurturing relationship with Dan Dantoni over the season last year (I think he's been coddled too much, but that's up for debate i guess).  What will be the effect of his mentor's departure?

It's always been love/hate for me with him, but i can't pick a side - should we be optimistic or pessimistic about him this year

Can we call the hawks and sign and trade for Childress with an Acie Law toss in? Or at least call them back about Joe...we may be needing him around Christmas time.
