Good Job Telus

In the past year and a half Canada has seen more drastic changes in the mobile industry than its had in a long time. On December 16, 2009, A fourth mobile carrier, Wind Mobile, launched and differentiated itself from the"big 3" by providing consumers with no-contract plans and unlimited minutes. This was a first for Canadian customers, as they now were able to switch to a carrier that had no cancellation fees. 

NBA Rumour

Remix in the works???

From ESPN

The New Orleans Hornets have yet to start entertaining trade offers for Chris Paul, but that hasn't stopped the superstar point guard from making exit plans.

The Orlando Magic have emerged as the top team on Paul's list of preferred destinations, replacing the New York Knicks, according to league sources.

Paul

While the Knicks are still high on Paul's list, he believes the Magic, with All-Star center Dwight Howard, would be a better fit. Paul also realizes Orlando has much more to offer New Orleans in a trade and therefore believes it is a more realistic destination than New York, according to the sources.

Paul will meet with Hornets president Hugh Weber, new general manager Dell Demps and new head coach Monty Williams to discuss the future direction of the club. The Hornets hope to convince Paul to give the new regime a chance, but sources say he is fully expected to present New Orleans with a list of teams he would like to be traded to.

In addition to Orlando and New York, Dallas and Portland are on Paul's list. The New Orleans Times-Picayune reported on Friday that Paul's agent Leon Rose reached out to all four teams this week.

While New Orleans currently has no plans to trade Paul, the club also realizes how problematic it would be to have Williams start his coaching career with a disgruntled star.

That's why the Hornets may indeed decide to trade Paul even though he has two years left on his contract. But New Orleans would not limit itself to the four clubs on Paul's list. Instead, New Orleans would look for the best deal for its franchise, according to league sources.

New Jersey and Charlotte are known to be among the many teams that would make offers for Paul. Some league sources believe New Orleans would insist that Hornets center Emeka Okafor, who has four years and $52 million left on his contract, be included in any deal for Paul.

Orlando is one of several teams that called New Orleans about trading for Paul earlier this summer, but under former GM Jeff Bower the Hornets refused to consider moving the three-time All-Star. League executives are now wondering if that stance will change under Demps.

New Orleans has not listened to proposals yet, and most clubs will likely wait until after Monday's meeting to begin making offers. Orlando has not had trade discussions with the Hornets regarding Paul, according to sources.

Paul's desire to play in New York is largely tied to Carmelo Anthony, the Denver Nuggets' star. Both players would like to team with new Knick Amare Stoudemire to form a Big Three that could rival Miami's trio of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.

But while such a scenario is possible, it will be difficult to pull off. First, Anthony must turn down Denver's three-year, $65 million extension offer, which is something most league insiders don't believe he will do. Then, the Knicks must put together a package for Paul that entices the Hornets without eating up all the future cap space they would use to sign Anthony as a free agent next summer. If the Knicks took back Okafor with Paul, signing Anthony as a free agent in 2011 would be impossible.

Beyond that, sources say New Orleans may be unlikely to send Paul to New York because so many other teams could present better offers.

My opinion: 

+

Not much else to be said.

NFL Recap

Top Players This week

Jay Cutler, QB- With a big matchup against the NFC-leading Eagles, Cutler had his best game of the season. Completing 14 of 21 throws, 4 touchdowns and NO Interceptions. For the first time this season, somebody outperformed Mr. Vick

Dwayne Bowe, WR- So much for that weak start to the season. 13 receptions, 170 yards 3 touchdowns. Back-to-back-to-back multi-touchdown games, Can't be stopped. Bonus points for being on my fantasy team. 

Tom Brady, QB- 21 for 27, 341 yards, 4 touchdowns, perfect QB rating , no big deal just another day at the office.

Sam Bradford, QB- 308 yards, 3 touchdowns. How is this guy leading the Rams to the playoffs as a rookie, much respect. Wonder how good he will be in 3 years.

And now for the Pay This Man of the Week Award:

Peyton Hillis, RB

131 rushing yards, 63 yards recieving, 3 touchdowns. Making the Broncos (and fantasy owners) look more and more foolish each week. The Browns have a great strategy; give this guy the ball and he'll do something.

Shameless Promoting

Worth a chuckle

A friend emailed the NBA and this was the response... I thought it was funny 
FROM: Blank

MESSAGE:
This is in regards to the Indiana Pacers / Miami Heat game on Nov. 22. At
the end of the first quarter, it appeared that Lebron James scored a
legitimate two point field goal that would have put the score at 24-19 for
Miami. The score was never changed to reflect that and no explanation was
proffered at anytime, with even the television announcers noting the
irregularity. Given the NBA'S dubious history concerning a lack of
integrity with its officials and referees I would like a legitimate
explanation. I am seriously considering disregarding the sport in the
future, because I am unable to confidently believe that the sport is
conducted in an entirely fair and honest manner. This is very
disconcerting. An explanation would be much appreciated.

Thank you


Dear Blank:

Thank you for writing the National Basketball Association with your
concerns. I reviewed the tape and watched the last minute of the first
quarter. If you remember, Juwan Howard scored a basket while
simultaneously committing a charging foul. The television scorekeeper
counted the basket at the time and did not take it down. When LeBron
scored, then, he did not add the basket to the total score but kept it at
22. Thus, it was the correct score at the end of the quarter.

Thank you again for writing.

Sincerely,

NBA Fan Relations
