The Day the World Turned, January 19, 2008

Today, at 4:30pm pacific standard time, I lost faith in the world. I lost faith in everything I believed in. Courtney Sims has been signed by the Phoenix Suns. It was bad enough when the SOFTEST player I'd ever seen in college until I saw Zack Gibson initially was in the League as a Indiana Pacer. However, his time on the Pacers was short-lived and he was quickly relegated to the D-League. But today, with Shaq, Amare, Amundson, and Robin Lopez on their roster, the Phoenix Suns signed him.

How does this happen? Yeah, i'm aware he's 6'11. But have you ever seen him play? I'm not sure he's ever gone to the basket strong. He's so soft, he fades-away from the hoop on dunks. I'm distraught. I thought the NBA was above this.

It's a good thing 24 plays 23 tonight in LA... maybe my faith in the League will be restored.

Until then, shame on you Phoenix Suns... shame on you. Enjoy nothing. Because that's what Courtney is going to give you.
