Occasional Observations on Several Subjects - the Great Oden's Foot Edition

  • Maybe a week ago, Matt and I were talking about the prospects of Greg Oden. I'm in the "best dude ever" camp; Matt's a little more subdued/skeptical/other word starting with S. The main crux of his argument is that Oden might be injury-prone. I said, "worrying about injuries is silly." Matt got salty.

    However, Matt also appears to be right. It takes a big man to admit when he's wrong, and today, I'm that big man.
  • Due to internet obligations/my DVR being occupied by Dancing with the Stars and Without a Trace (not my choices), I only got to see about 10 minutes of the Bulls game. That's too bad, as it appears they are both exciting and maybe decent. Tyrus Thomas had a good game and Derrick Rose is for real. Larry Hughes being injured sure doesn't help hurt either.
  • Skeets mentioned it last night, but I whole-heartedly agree that one of the best parts of the NBA season is seeing everybody's new hair/look/personal brand. It's hilarious.

    Particularly up for debate was Delonte West. I'm pro-hair as it makes him look less like a re-animated alien corpse, but that's just my opinion.
  • Another important matter of business during the live blog was the creation of Goatman. Ergo, all posts this Friday will be done as Goatman, for Halloween. I don't know what that means, but it's going to happen.
  • New podcast tomorrow, hopefully. It's available for subscription in iTunes now. Just search for the Blowtorch.
  • More to come later...

You meant "Larry Hughes being injured sure doesn't hurt either," right?

YES. Good catch. Fixed.

Subscription complete. And I apologize for not listening/commenting on Ep. 1 when it went live ... I hope you'll consider a (well-deserved) 5-star rating/iTunes comment to be acceptable restitution.
