Congrats Dwayne Wade

hmmm, since when is this an NBA forum?

goomlah,

At 2:20 AM with 7 members signed on, including yourself, beenthere and me, who cares?

Beenthere, I really don't like Riley, never did, but Dwayne Wade is the best thing going since MJ.

Who missed the extra point for the Sox tonight?

Dwayne Wade is an excellent player perhaps the best in the league but I have never seen a player draw more ticky tack fouls in my life. With 2 minutes to go up by 2 Wade drove to in the lane and stuck his forearm into Dirk, pushed off and got a foul, it was horrible.
It is also a joke that Stackhouse was suspended for Game 5. It was a hard foul but you can't suspend a guy for the most important game of the series.
It is part of the WUSSIFICATION of sports. All of the sudden a batter gets hit in the MLB warnings are issued and a pitcher can't throw inside the rest of the game in an era where the hitter has every advantage.

goom...Dwayne Wade once played Little League.

It's all about baseball.

I thought this was a baseball forum

Cou...goom....

Both of you have, obviously, not been reading anything else on this website.

Different topics all over the place.

What did Wade have to do with baseball? He played Little League ball.

No he isn't imho. Dwayne is obviously a great, Hall of Fame (HOF) type player. Even in the HOF, there are distinctions. You guys will say I am a homer, but no one compares to LeBron James imho.

Any comparison to MJ is foolish. Check this out.

LeBron and Wade may be potential HOF but they won't be in the same wing as MJ.

MJ and Dwayne have one thing that LeBron doesn't and that's a title.

I just wish his mom had spelled his name correctly. D-W-Y-A-N-E? That is just wrong. Along the same lines as I-S-I-A-H Thomas.

il2008,

Thanks for the reminder (although I can't say I approve of the musical accompaniment)...former White Sox minor leaguer Jordan was the best. One tends to forget how incredible he was in the first half of his career.

Goose, you're right...that's how the former little leaguer knows he's a "next level" superstar.

ClevelandDad, how can LeBron be any good if he never played baseball? Really!

Mj, 6 titles

Good point Mike!

Seriously, I have not heard LeBron played baseball, but he was an All-State football player in hs and they said he could have had a monster football career if he so desired

CD, I have to admit that the non baseball playin' LeBron is one of my favorites. But the Chicago area native former little leaguer Dwayne Wade seems to have supplanted Carmello Anthony as LeBron's primary counterpoint over the next several years. It should be fun to watch (between baseball games).

Mike - I agree with your assessment It will be a great matchup for years to come
