Sixers @ Hornets Game Preview
The Sixers will finally end their five game west coast roadie to start the season tonight against the slightly less west New Orleans Hornets. They'll be looking to finish 3-2 on the road trip, which is quite likely because Chris Paul will not be playing. Nor will David West. I think David Wesley...

Against really good teams, they scrap and claw and make...
Thank You Chris Paul
The Rockets season has ended, and I'm sure that you have noticed that I haven't posted anything since that happened. I've wanted to, I just couldn't do it... I had convinced myself that Utah was not that good (partially true) and that the Rockets could play like a team and get through their...
8>3 Shirts and more
They're finally here. The 8>3 T-Shirts are ready to go. There's actually a lot more than t-shirts. With all of the online print shops, you can slap pretty much anything on anything you want. And since it's just as easy to create all of them at once, I just selected everything and put...
