this is not the kind of fireworks i was hoping for for 2010.
oh well, flip was right when he said that it could get worse.
question:
1. did critt bring his own weapon to the phonebooth? or grabbed one of gils
2. were they knowingly pulling NON-loaded guns on eachother, what were they going to do hit eachother with em?
3. were they betting on the games? critt beting against arenas for standings or wins?
i feel bad for gil. think of it.....
up, up, up: he was at the height of his career, top scorer, all-star, possible mvp considerations, winning team, best record in the east.....
down, down, down: some fool busted his knee, surgery #1
rehad to prove doubter wrong
failed comeback, surgery #2
promising comeback, training ahead of schedule
comeback #2, surgery #3
up, up, up: sign big contract, sign his friends to big contracts. finally healthy, everyone finally healthy, great hopes, great expectations
down, down, down: no wins, bad chemistry, bustd expectations, dead owner, trade rumors, contract over his head...
how would you handle this? it's to much for these guys to be told they are on the top of the world but then being trashed for not living up to expectations, being blamed for everything that is wrong. it messes with you.
gil had a great thing going, he was going to be on top of his game, top of the league, top of his world, it all came tumbling down and crashing apart. all in 2 years.
i feel bad for him. dont say, 'well he's got plenty of money' because that does nothing. i bet he'd give it all back to be where he was three years ago.
Gil, i wish you the best of luck, i hope it all works out. STILL your fan, Zerocious
