TJ Pouting?

As they say over here, not bloody likely! But the Canadian press do love to stir up trouble.

Nice read from NBA analyst Scoop Jackson on the two-headed monster playing PG for the Raptors.

"I don't mind people writing whatever they want to write," Ford said in response to media coverage, of being Darth Vader in the Raptors' personal war of stars because he allegedly sulked, let his attitude hold the team hostage and stopped being the same player once his starting job was taken from him. "But [I have an issue with them] writing on my behalf. If you make your own assessment about me, make sure you state it that way. Saying that I'm unhappy or that I don't like the situation, I never said that, and I don't think I ever showcased that. Everyone in this league wants to play. I want to play. Just because I get mad for a split second does not mean that I'm unhappy about an entire situation. That's just the competitive nature when you are out there battling. But people don't see it that way."

i couldn't love him any more

TJ always seems to say the right thing in my mind.
they're trying to make a villain out of a leader.

My adopted son Curtis Brown has the power of flight, but can't navigate his way onto the field.

I love TJ of course, one of my top 5 favorite Horns of all time. But he's been surpassed by his replacement. Calderon's playing much better basketball than him, and has been for quite some time. Oh well, I wouldnt mind seeing TJ being somewhere other than Toronto anyway.
