Nowhere near it. The CCS program I'm using for the homepage needs an update, and I'm still considering just tossing the program altogether and coding the entire thing from scratch.

Getting ready to go to work...just need to know who everyone thinks belongs on these banners. I need one player from each team, and please add the players you feel deserve to be featured in that team forum. Copy and paste the code below, and add your players. Thanks. Atlanta Hawks - Boston Celtics - Charlotte Bobcats - Chicago Bulls - Cleveland Cavaliers - Dallas Mavericks - Denver Nuggets - Detroit Pistons - Golden State Warriors - Houston Rockets - Indiana Pacers - Los Angeles Clippers - Los Angeles Lakers - Memphis Grizzlies - Miami Heat - Milwaukee Bucks - Minnesota Timberwolves - New Jersey Nets - New Orleans Hornets - New York Knicks - Oklahoma City Thunder - Orlando Magic - Philadelphia 76ers - Phoenix Suns - Portland Trail Blazers - Sacramento Kings - San Antonio Spurs - Toronto Raptors - Utah Jazz - Washington Wizards -

Hahahahaha... ^_^

If the big three keep their previous season's scoring averages, they won't even get the top seed in the conference. I doubt the three provides THAT much scoring. As for LeBron getting a triple-double...really? http://i36.tinypic.com/10y2zkm.jpg

Wouldn't say the movie itself is on that level, but Ledger's performance was. Blew Jack's Joker out of the water.

Yeah, it happened with PSA, BBW, NBAD, RBS, CTS, S2, M2, and a bunch of other sites that rebuilt their forums. Don't appreciate the spamming by some of our members, not one bit...but it's expected, nonetheless. Things will be back to the way they were, and OTR will still be up and running. Always happens that way.

Ah, yeah...I didn't see those fights. I figured you were talking about Guida...because he was getting hit quite a bit, but that one punch he connected with was devastating, and it broke dos Anjos' jaw. He made him tap in the end, but it was probably more about the jaw than anything else.

Are you talking about Guida? Dude broke the man's jaw.

Silva was waiting for that triangle in that fifth round. Right when Sonnen put him on his back, Silva wasn't even trying to get up, unlike that fourth. What was up with the submission, though? He clearly tapped, and Silva just grabbed that arm again, started yanking on it. Sonnen looked like he wanted to kill Anderson for that, haha.

Shaq ditched Orlando, left them hanging. By the end of his career, Howard will be one of the best defensive centers in the last 20 years (he already is, really), and if he continues to improve his offensive game, even though it's coming slowly, he'll most definitely surpass Shaq as the greatest player in Orlando's history.

Haha, yeah. You dunk until you catch fire, then you shoot a couple of threes. Really weird, though...there should've been many more rebounds in the total. I'm not sure why there were so few. I did miss a few threes.

By the looks of things, the entire Buss family will be history by the time Shaq retires, so it'll be in Los Angeles. He hasn't done anything significant ENOUGH to get his jersey retired elsewhere. Dwight Howard will end up being the greatest player Orlando has ever seen (he's already won more Finals games than Orlando's Shaq, granted it's just one) and the Heat will be too busy slobbering over James and Wade to even remember the 2006 Shaq.

Jackson. Elton John is talented, but I didn't even have to think about this one.

I'm going to install a whole new message board just for the UFC, and just for you, Sean. You can just create all of the topics and initiate all of the discussion, lol. I really don't know THAT much about Sonnen. I just know that I didn't think he was going to do that good against Marquardt. Being one of the best wrestlers (or probably the best) in his weight class, I think Sonnen has a chance only if he sets the pace. Doing that against Silva seems impossible, though. I really have yet to see a fighter dictate the pace in a fight against him. Good point about Henderson, though. I just watched and read a few things about Sonnen's trash-talking, and now I'm backing Silva. Dude seems way too confident and cocky that he's going to topple Silva, and he NEVER shuts up. Silva could've destroyed Maia, literally, if he really wanted to. I just hope the judges don't hand the victory to Sonnen if the fight does go five AND it's somewhat close, just because they are still butt-hurt over what he did to Maia. And I hope Nelson wins. I don't like him, and I want Brock to tear him to pieces.

Then why don't you have Deron Williams in your top six? If we're talking overall skills/abilities, Howard doesn't break the list.

You're welcome. Thread closed.

Discussion of other sites is allowed as long as it isn't promoting them intentionally...but I'm not going to allow members to bash any other active site.

There's no way I'm selling OTR. I have no idea who Rush is, and he/she doesn't concern me. I shut down OTR for a day not because of a rumor about me, but because someone pulled strings and manipulated the entire community. Ask the members who were around. Misinformation is bad information. Yes, I know former members are spamming. I created a topic about it earlier. And what a former member says about me doesn't concern me, either. Nobody else has ever owned OTR. I've had basically the same staff for over five years. I don't promote trolling on other boards to get back at them. I don't need administrators from other sites assisting me with everything I do. I don't create 15 different sites with multiple domains, sell any, purchase any, merge with any...don't care because I don't need it. There's nothing more to say, really.

Not the new one (although you can talk about that one coming out, too), but I just KILLED IT with Karl Malone, and I used the keyboard, lol. http://i33.tinypic.com/qys1eb.jpg "NO JOHN, YOU DO NOT GET TO SCORE."

Gotta put Bryant ahead of everyone when he's healthy. Tossing the statistics out the window (because you'll have to do that during the upcoming season, since Wade, James and Bosh are sharing now), Kobe is the most complete player out of everyone in the league. 1) Kobe 2) James 3) Wade 4) Durant

We had a choice between choir or band, had to pick one or the other (sucked), so I picked the trumpet. Ended up ranked #1 in the state of Kansas for two consecutive years, in state solo competitions...so I stuck with it after I shattered my ankle playing ball. On the other hand, I absolutely HATED band. Didn't like marching, didn't like anything about it. People would all go and see movies and [expletive] together, and I would never go, didn't even really know anyone in my band besides this really hot clarinet player.

Nothing important? As mentioned, he did serve a purpose. Had it not been for Person, I'm not really sure if Kobe could've continued playing...and he may have opted to get the surgery. Maybe a good thing for the future (the surgery), but I wonder how that would've changed things for last season.

Don't spam my PM system with other sites, simple as that. I'll not only ban the member(s) doing it, but I'll also delete the accounts, completely, and ban IP addresses from viewing the board as a guest, then post your name and the site name in this topic, for everyone to see. A simple "http" and ".com" search in the database provides me with those links. Nothing further to discuss, so the topic is closed.

Silva will probably win, but he's losing a fan more and more each time he taunts his opponents. I'm to the point where I want to see him tap (not knocked out from some lucky punch). This might be one of his toughest fights yet, though.
