    Please Note
    The Sports Network website and other major news sites have been hacked by a political entity from China, and as a result are temporarily unavailable. We apologize for any inconvenience and hope to be back up and running as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

    Sports Network Management

    this is the note posted on the address if you didn't catch it. once again, they claim, "political entity". i wonder how political are those hacker nerds. :D

    PS. not supporting the hacking at all. but some people are really bored. they need to get a damn job. :mad:

    On second glance, that's not the right web address for CNNSI.

    China's hackers can't get anything right

    The Chinese hackers had an excellent plan in place and the statement would have been powerful -- however the recent addition of Commodore 64s to the infiltration team's arsenal left them over confident and vulnerable. When their baud modems finish transmitting the results of the hacking effort I would venture the abacus coding team will be nothing if not cruel.

    I'm for anything bad that happens to si as long as people don't get hurt. They put a damn soccer player on the cover after the first championship and we all know good and well Ewing would have been on the cover had the Knicks won game 7. Not to mention the commemorative edition they were initially going to not publish. Screw si. I have hated them with a passion since June 27, 1994, which is when the edition with Dream on the cover should have come out. Never have my hopes for a single issue of a magazine been so great and never has my disappointment been so crushing. May their editors never escape the grasp of Beelzebub.
