Excerpt:

Declaring that it was time to "set wins and losses aside," Phil Jackson said Wednesday that he would temporarily suspend the Lakers' 2008-2009 season and seek to delay the Lakers' season opener against the Portland Trail Blazers, so that he could return to New York to help to forge an overhaul of the NBA Referees Association

Much credit to Ben from Blazers Edge for breaking this important story.

Knowing Phil's legendary status, I'm surprised he wasn't going to NY to rescue Wall Street.

Gramps...

OK to be fair people need to read the full article... it's REALLY "important".

Did. Hence my post, it is obvious the inspiration behind the article but it is wonderfully done.

I was just trying to find a possible ulterior motive. Besides Pritchard says let the games go on. That and it just feels like a parallel with McCain and Obama of sorts. Jackson is McCain of course.

Edit: I need to work on my typing speed.

God, me too. I think it's crazy how that game still hasn't sold out ... I wish I wasn't some broke ass student at Portland State 'cause I'd go in a heartbeat. C'est la vie.

It's pathetic and embarrising that it isnt sold out. Hopefully the students will step up and use the extra tix that are now available for them.

Thing is, with all the stuff going on with the economy, nobody can afford to rent him a throne for the conference room...

I kind of want to see Bigfoot and BlazerWookie in a fight to the death. A no-holds-barred death match between a sasquatch and a wookie seems pretty cool.
