I didn't realize their was a game tonight.  What's with the back to back games?  This old team can't hang as it is, but back to backs are rough.

Beaglefan2:
Shouldn't we be rooting for good, competive games and hope we lose every one so that we get more balls in the draft lottery?  I think we finish 12th from last and get lucky and get the top pick!

Mickstix:
Milano still sick, Ovi another GTD.  :-|

John Walton will be back on the radio tonight for the first time since losing his brother on feb 25, but there was another reason for the extended break..
