Flip Saunders Fired

Just found word that the Pistons Head Coach Flip Saunders was fired by Joe Dumars. (The President of the Pistons.

"Decisions like this are difficult to make," team president Joe Dumars said on the team's Web site. "However, at this time, I feel it is necessary to make a change."

In his three seasons, the Pistons were 176-70 in the regular season and 30-21 in the postseason, but they lost in the conference finals each year.

Saunders had a year left on a four-year deal he signed in 2005. He replaced Larry Brown, who won a title in two trips to the NBA Finals.

He has a career record of 587-296 in 13 years with the Pistons and Minnesota Timberwolves.

This guy was a good coach. Was he a great coach for a great team? No. But I respect him for stepping up to the plate and trying to hit the home run. I can tell he wanted to win the title but he just chocked. I am sorry that I have to say that about my NBA team but that's the truth. If you got to the Eastern Conference Finals for three strait seasons you have to at least go to the NBA finals once. That's all. One time out of three and he couldn't do that. That's the price you pay for not succeeding your expectations. So whats next for Tayshaun Prince and the Pistons for a coach. Hopefully Joe Dumars does not do a Bonehead decision again and get a really great experienced coach.

Pacman Reinstated?

I just watched SportSCenter a couple of minutes ago and heard that Pacman Jones has been partially reinstated by Roger Goodell. Is this the right move? I don't know? Is Pacman going to act up again and make it rain. Probably. Can you do anything about it? NO!!!! This guy is a strait thug he needs to be kicked out of the NFL and live on the streets. He is sooooo bad that i have been at stores with Pacaman jerseys and some kids ask their mothers or fathers if they can have a Pacman Jones jersey and most of them talked him out of it and asked the kid to by a Vince young Jersey. But some of the other parents just said NO. Pacman is bad news. I won't be surprised if he gets caught breaking the law again. What is jerry Jones thinking? Does he really think that he can keep Pacman out of trouble? Good luck with that Jerry. I am not only a Kentucky, Pistons fan. I am a huge Titans fan as well. Pacman was and is a disgrace to the whole franchise. It will be interesting to see what Pacman does next.

Jay Bruce on Fire!

Jay Bruce just started his rookie season on fire by hitting 3 home runs and 7 RBI's and his Batting Average is .577. That is outstanding for a rookie just comming into the league. I don't care what people say it's really hard to hit a 90 mile an hour pitch coming out to you.
