    Sorry, I don't want to get everyone excited over nothing again. But . . . there's a bunch of media cars parked in the media spaces outside of Toyota Center - which is normally what happens when something is about to be annouced.

    If nothing happens, go ahead and beat me down with a bar of soap inside of a pillow case.

    wouldnt they of announced a press conference by now? it's pretty late in the day. And usually the press conferences come way after the stories are leaked to the media

    i doubt it. swift will not make up his mind until we know whats going on with SAR and the nets.

    i think all the media are there to try and talk with CD about the situation.

    Offseason is so boring, but the real scoop would be seeing Berman. :)

    With the more obvious scenarios becoming stagnant, something tells me an announcement might come out of left field, with an unexpected team/player, maybe a 3-team deal, that will leave the BBS torn down the middle...

    The guys on 610 said at the start of the show there was some "breaking news" we'd be interested in, but they're talking about the Astros now.

    Well, I hope any deal we make works out as well as that did ;) , but the T-Mac trade was neither unexpected nor did it involve 3 teams...
