It's a simple question, really. Somebody make the case that ROCKET!!! knows what he's talking about. If Clutch steps up to the plate and vouches for ROCKET!!!, I'll pay more attention. Until then,....
Just a few quick snippets I found...but I remember more. Funny how stupid I am to have come to such a poor conclusion as the one from my earlier post. Doc: It's done, boys. Ming's a Rocket! !!!: Again, I think you've jumped the gun on this one. Everything I am hearing is contrary to this. his is a smoke screen. Doc, no offense intended, but if this is what people are telling you, I think you are being strung along or being used. It just isn't consistent with the 411. ................... Do you REALLY want Ming? My gut feel says this is not a good pick. I still want quality for this gift of a pick. From my sources, it looks like a decision has already been made. I pray they are correct. If so, we will ................. More Blather!!! Pump up the volume. The PR department is working overtime. I still don't think Ming is our pick. All indicators point otherwise. This goes back to Doc's and my conversation. ................ Troy's argument was that Francis would bolt if Ming was picked, dont remember anthing about the front office.
Since the search function is back, I checked on things from last summer to see if these sources were reputable. Rocket!!!, I am aware that everyone gets things wrong from time to time, but this thread is a little extreme: http://bbs.clutchcity.net/php3/showthread.php?s=&threadid=11576
Interesting thread, Cat. Thanks. I especially liked the following portion of one of ROCKET!!!'s posts in that thread: "TRG also hinted in another post that July 18th would bring plesant surprises just after talking about getting rid of Cato. Again, who knows?" Could this be a source?
Wait a minute, ROCKET!!! quoted TRG on something? I've been misled. (sniff) If something TRG posted comes true, then I'll be stunned. (PLEASE no one continue posting about TRG, an admin will lock the thread!)
But everyone must admit that ROCKET!!! keeps a lot of us entertained. But, a lot depends on what happens on Draft night. I really think that Ming is going to be a Rocket.
