Congrats to him..that organization is a mess right now but anything is better than getting picked by the Bobcats!

At least the weather is nicer in Charlotte, Jordan needs to hire some tough GM's and not former friends like GM Rod Higgins from the Bulls if he wants to turn it around.

I wonder if he will get a chance to play. I hope so. He would be the second current pro athlete from Valpo.

Actually third Jeanette Gray plays Women's Professional Football.

[crowntownmike]

There is women's football? Does she actually get paid, or is it semi-pro like the Lake County Steelers?

[apollo]

Professional football, yes she gets paid, games were recently on WJOB, games are on one of the cable channels.

I have heard the too apollo. I think it's great that she has an opportunity to play. It just goes to show that great athletes are great athletes, and that basketball players can be outstanding WRs!

I wonder if he is going to stay in Minnesota they are trying hard to make trades they didn't tender Beasley or Randolph not Zach, and are trying to get Gasol from the Lakers, Hummel could end up in LA.

That happens a lot in the NBA with guys not even making it to camp with the team that drafted them. I wonder if it is better for him to stay with a bad team and get some playing time, or to go to a good team like the Lakers and sit at the end of the bench. It was kind of like that with E'Twaan Moore who went to a very good Celtics team and played, but not as much as he would of for a lesser team.
