    Hey Guys,

    About an hour ago, I was taking my girlfriend to work, and was driving down Westheimer heading towards Kirkwood. Along side me pulled a maroon chevy SUV, and the driver was Jim Jackson. He was wearing a blue t-shirt and had some cool guy shades on. I got in the lane behind him, and played stalker for a moment, and followed him to his destination. He lives at the Royal Oak Club, its a new community, million dollar homes. Has a nice golf course and its gated as well. I was suprised his ride wasn't as bling bling as I thought. Well, I guess he really is not planning on reporting to new orleans.

    Laters

    Are you sure he lives there? Maybe he went there to give JVG a beat down ;)

    You just never know.

    Nice scoop though - at least we know where he is. I thought Heash said he was heading for Toledo? No?

    Are you sure about that? Didn't we betrayed his trust by trading him to the sorriest team in the league? :confused:

    Even though it was just business....

    I think JJ is waiting for New Orleans to offer him a buyout on his contract. Then he will sign with whoever he wants.

    He must have got a house finally becuase he used to share a loft at the Ballparks with Cuttino Mobley for a while. I have always seen him around Royal Oaks becuase i live in Shadow Lakes which is right next to it. Where Eddie Griffin used to live.

    He does have a Ferrarri that he drives around a lot as well. I guess he wanted to be low key.

    Let's send NO a second round pick plus part of the trade exception to get him back.

    I wouldn't be surprised if NO doesn't do anything and just lets him sit out the rest of the year.

    For a team that really needs young talent and help for the future I'll that route will not be wise. Teams like Orlando, Denver, Sacramento, Minny and Miami could use him. They could recoup some cash + 2 round pick from those teams.
