They'll choke. Watch.

On the road in Miami, they will choke.
Not always.

So, if the Pacers lose, YOU will just call it a choke?  I think, they have already exceeded MOST sports fans predictions....

They are young and only going to get better.

Yep.  The LB influence seems to be on it's way out the door so to speak.   :yes:

Young is political-speak for choke; and you know it.

IF any of them develop the talent that would actually prevent choking, you can bet your ass they'll be on the chopping block faster than a fly on shite.

Indianapolis cannot support a high salary team unless ownership is willing to dig deep into it's own pockets. And that will not happen unless the citizens of Marion county and the nine collar counties around it allow them to dig into their pockets. (Of course, we've seen them do just that for the Indians and Colts now haven't we?)

Colts HAVE won a Super Bowl and they ARE contenders nearly every year. The Indians are always a respectable team with a fair amount of fans at each game.  Yes, I agree that small city markets are at an un-fair adavantage, because of the capital that is needed to keep up with the teams like the 'Heat' and the 'Yankee's'...but my stance is this.

I have NO control over that, but I am a FAN.  I like sports, and rooting for the Home Team is what I like to do.  The constant "put-downs" and the negative thoughts that they will CHOKE are not in my vocabulary.  I have realistic expectations.  I understand that more than likely the Heat is going to SPANK the Pacers tonight.  But, I am optimistic that in game 6 the Pacers could win.  If I am a betting man, which I am not, I say the Heat will probably win the series but I am rooting like the devil for the Pacers.

It all hinges on whether the refs fall for Laflop's crap or not.  Of course since Reg is announcing now rather than playing he sees nothing wrong with it.  He even said "if you can do it and get by with it go for it".  He even owned up to doing it...  :biggrin:

I love Basketball on a High School and College level.  Not really a big fan of NBA, but if my Pacers are in it, I will root for them, and watch some if I can.

Hockey is the one that I have NEVER been able to make myself watch or become a fan of.  But, if we had a NHL team, I think I would be a fan, and would root them on.  Just because.

Ahem!


The league announced Thursday that Indiana's Lance Stephenson and David West as well as the Heat's LeBron James each have been fined $5,000 for flopping during Tuesday's 99-92 Pacers victory that tied the Eastern Conference finals at 2-2.

Guess they'd better ask Reg to coach them a little then huh?   :biggrin:

Hockey is the one that I have NEVER been able to make myself watch or become a fan of.  .  .

I absolutely love hockey at all levels, and played organized hockey on the floor and ice leagues that infested the suburban cities and towns where I grew up. I even played in high school and would have played in college had the opportunity presented itself.

I still own a stick, gloves, pucks, etc., and it is humorous to see the looks on my neighbor's faces when I get out onto the ice here in my neighborhood on those rare occasions when it is thick enough to do so in winter.  :biggrin:

My teeth are trashed from playing hockey, and I watch it anytime there is a game on and I am near a tv. I used to go to Ice games just to get my fix.

The Blackhawks are in the conference finals again this year, after beating their arch rivals, Detroit, in a nail biter of a series just last night.  GO HAWKS!

Funny how even though I don't care about Hockey....the Blackhawks was always the team I rooted for........I guess as a kid, I grew up being a Cubs fan and a Bears fan.  So by default, I became a Blackhawks fan.   I DID go to an ICE game once, years ago...and it was fun to watch IN PERSON, but to watch it on TV.......it loses me EVERYTIME.
