THE PICKER

Dynasties to Dinosaurs

We were flipping through some games over the weekend and stopped on what we thought was the Purdue game.

But we thought ...

Dallas Pretty Much Stinks

After the fluke win over the Giants, a game in which the visitor gave up six turnovers and still appeared to be the better ...

This quiz says all you need to know about several important subjects.

1. Who said, after the first day when this guy stepped onto the basketball court, as numerous media members far and wide were calling for parades and proclaiming the greatness of the moment, that if Kendrick Perkins got half a point for hitting the rim, he still couldn't average 10 PPG?

Answer: The Picker said it.

2. Who said that trading James Harden to Houston, leaving the Thunder with a starting lineup of two stars and three stiffs, and a bench of Others, was one of the worst moves in the history of the NBA?

Answer: The Picker said it.

3. Who said that, after hideous draft pick after daffy draft pick, and after questionable trade after horrendous trade, that Thunder GM Presti needed to quit trying to play "Moneyball" with this basketball team and focus on winning the title right now, this instant, before Durant started looking west to Loopyland and Hollyweird?

Answer: The Picker said it.

4. Who says everything of merit first and is then followed by the rest of the media lap dogs?

Answer: The Picker.

Speaking of picking, it's only slightly more than a month from the greatest contest going, Outpick the Picker, where readers around the globe match wits with halfwits and experts alike for glory and tremendous prizes.

This season promises to be one of the most memorable ever, as OSU tries to assert state supremecy from the fading Stoops empire.

Last year the picking contest was won by a man from Washington state.

Come on people.

Represent.
