David Griffin: "How the h*** do we not love the Utah Jazz?"

Studies done on college team show the more successful teams Road together. I think that is the way the Jazz are going, we are keeping our core intact and we are growing into champions

Yeah, this really has the feeling of last season where 2-3 bad losses will be the difference between the 3 and being out of the playoffs.

One advantage the Jazz and Nuggets used to have is that they both seem to get teams on a back to back and they play in altitude. I think it's due to the geographic proximity of the teams and the fact there aren't many teams around them, so it makes sense for a team to play in Denver one night and Salt Lake the next (and vice-versa). I always thought in the past that was worth 2-3 wins at least. However, with the season being extended I'm not sure the Jazz get as many of those games like they used to.
 
The Jazz need a reliable, athletic 20+ point scorer in the front court. They might have enough of everything else.
 
Cool podcast, been listening to his interview with Adam Duritz of the Counting Crows who were one of my favourite bands when I was a teenager. Thanks for the link!

Saw the Counting Crows at Red Butte recently and unfortunately Duritz couldn't even come close to singing in the same key as the songs required. The band was good but I felt ripped off. Love their music though. Back up singers could have made it so much better, which makes me think either he has a huge ego or the whole band and management are deaf. Oh, and he was dressed like he just walked out of Walmart... dirty looking oversized jeans with an oversized t-shirt for his out-of-shape physique. Luckily it was still a good night because Red Butte and its crowd is awesome.

Holy ****, you’re right.

 
He should be Counting Calories.
They paved paradise and put up an all-you-can-eat buffet.




Edit: Let's just hope I never run for political office. Fat-shaming would come back to haunt me. But seriously, I've never understood the nostalgia for these over-the-hill former stars. Let their "good" music live on, but let the actual singers retire to Shady Pines and not try to perform WAY past their primes.

I just saw Whitesnake a couple weeks ago. And Foreigner. But I didn’t go for them. **** them. The singer has been in the band since 2004 but kept talking like he was there from the beginning.

think he blew out his voice on the second or third tour, I think the weight gain had something to do with giving up cocaine...

In the video I posted, it’s not just the voice — it’s the effort.
