Maybe the Warriors tried to lose the first two games but the Cavs were just that awful and had to give up in game 3 to get a five game series so they can win in Oakland.

The one stated in the above article, for one.

Sounds like Mutant League Football to me. I'm in.

I like Sherman off the field, I dislike Sherman on the field. Apparently I also like his off field opinions and dislike his onfield opinions.

Wait, so for the 100th anniversary of a prestigious and historic South American tournament...they decided to play in the US?

So at WORST my favorite team can only lose up to two guys. Phew. Do teams receive any compensation in return, other than a contract off the books? Does new team have to fulfill existing contracts (ie, they can't get all the $$ guys because they need to fit under the cap? Can teams protect players based on who other…
