Someone Misjudged the Market..and TV Notes

Apparently Lamar Odom hasn't been getting the best advice, and maybe isn't aware of the recession our country is going through. Odom turned down a 3 year 3o million dollars deal and a 4 year36 million dollar deal from the Lakers, but Lamar wants his five year deal. The Heat could offer a 5 year deal but at just over 5 million a year, and it looks like right now Lamar might have screwed himself.

I hope he made this decision on his own, because I'd fire my agent if he advised me to do turn down the Lakers offer, and now Lakers owner Jerry Bus is not happy with the Odom camp, and if he does sign with the Lakers I wouldn't be surprised if it is at a discount.

Has Lamar looked around the league, even the younger and more coveted Paul Milsap? Who? only got a four year deal at 32 million. It just upsets me seeing these athletes trying to get every little dime out there, and watch Lamar get stuck with a 1 year deal. Lakers picked up Artest, he can fill the void left by Odom., and Lamar can watch them raise another banner. -SF 58

Tv Notes

T.O. Show- This show is awful. I wasted half of an hour watching it. If you like to see Terrell Owens with no shirt on and getting a pedicure, then it is for you. I'd love to see his day to day life in Buffalo, but don't need another Hills-esque reality show that is all staged. Buffalo fans, I feel for you, get ready for an offense and locker room to be torn apart by T.O. However, it is a one year deal, so he might shut his mouth and play hard for one season, but then he will want a multi year extension.

Sportsnation- This latest creation by the wizards at ESPN must have been made for kids 13 and under. If you like graphs and learning what the rest of the country thinks about every single topic out there, then you will enjoy it. For those who read this website and others who can formulate their own thoughts this show is not for you. Usually one or two poll questions a day are fine, but a whole show surrounding polls is just absolutely painful. Also, the hosts who are no names, are hard to watch as well. This show can't be on the air too long, but with the wizards at the ESPN you never know. - SF 58
