  1. ~6', >260

    Big body, can make room for ball carrier.

    If punting, has been known to get off a few good ones.

    Agile. Played goalie in soccer (competitive) and street hockey(all of us sucked).

    Will only quit if falls over not breathing.

    OH, and in high school I almost beat an athlete in a 100yard dash. Seriously. And I had a foot problem at the time. But, then again, he was cross country and it was a sprint.

  2. JJ has said this, but he wants Johnson to get more touches becuase he feels it will open up the perimeter game more, thus opening it up for all if the outside shot go down.

    Basicly, if Johnson doesn't have a shot then kick it out to an open man. The more touches he gets the more effective it will be.....and the more foul trouble for the opponents post players.

  3. Get ShawnDog (which he prefers to ShoJo) in the low post, feed him the ball.

    In the press conference, someone asked what he thought of the nickname ShoJo.

    He said he had never heard it until then. Said he didn't hear the PA guy say it or the sign.

    I seems to be an unauthorized nickname.

    I hadn't heard about ShawnDog.

  4. The Rangers have one of the highest payrolls in the MLB. He wants to bring it down to 75-80Mil.

    That means 25 for ARod, 25 for Chan Ho, Greer, and players no longer with the team that have guarenteed money (Esteban Young, Todd Van Poppell), and 25-30 for the rest of the team.

    You have a 25ish man roster, and 50Mil is going to a great, a terrible, and a injured.

    I think he is doing the same thing with the Stars, although on a slightly lower scale.

    I do agree that offense is the major problem, but at least early in the season the defense was marginal at best. I think that came from losing your number 1 and 3 D-man...of six.

  5. How can you say Hicks has ruined hockey for you?

    Since he bought the Stars in 1995, they have not made the playoffs twice and have managed to win the Division how many times? Oh, and lets not forget the Stanley Cup Year in 1999 and making it back to the Finals in 2000.

    Yeah, our team has really sucked here in Dallas.

    I have followed hockey since about 1987-88, so I have been a fan since before we had the Stars.

    When I say ruined hockey, I mean by trading Sydor and letting Hull and Hatcher walk, replacing them with Turgeon and a player no longer with the team...he was cut. I still think this team will make the playoffs, but Hicks and his budget has kept them from keeping their best player...especially on defense.

    I love the Stars, but could do without the Hicks of now. Hicks of then was very good.
