Countup: Day 44 of Lockout

Today we start of off by looking a little closer at the Hawk’s ownership situation. Meruelo will be introduced Monday as a majority owner, but it’s clear that he’s not the sole owner of the team. A piece out of Atlanta spends a good deal of time saying that he has to be better than the previous regime, but falls short of laying high praise on him. Grayson laments that we are in the horse latitudes, but I think it’s the doldrums.

Andrew might say, “You Bob Breck knock-offs, these are trade winds,” as he as a response to an ESPN piece looking at Chris going to the Clippers.

The Thunder’s draft pick Reggie Jackson finds himself in the Bermuda Triangle. He’s living on loans while the NBA is locked out. He can’t play pro with the people that drafted him, can’t play NCAA ball, and may not be able to get, or rationally accept, an overseas contract.

Lastly, Tre Demps is a rider on the storm. Tre, son of Dell, injured his arm playing against . . . Reggie Jackson.

Bless You Boys! Good win last night by the Saints. Our thoughts are with Robert and Johnny.

Anyone do the red dress run?

Carry on.
