[QUOTE=Rusty]Hey boys. Sorry I haven't been around as much lately. I've had a few things on. I should be back on a more regular basis from now on though...[/QUOTE]
eheh, was the peru comment for me?
peru is actually an incredibly temperate country to live in on the coast, which is where most people live. the summers don't go much above 80
It'll be nice to listen to a podcast where the Nets have a nice week.
[QUOTE=gigantes]eheh, was the peru comment for me?...
...an idea for you-- since 90% of the time all i can see watching nets games is blurry little blobs running around my PC screen, maybe you can make some more on-court observations given your far clearer viewing image. what i'm always interested in is picking out certain players, staying with them and noting their energy level, court awareness, decision-making and little things like that. tells me a lot about a player, but i rarely get to do that these days.
sometimes when you are reading back the scores and the stats for games i'm thinking "yea, yea, i know all that from reading the papers and online sites, but how did this or that guy actually [i]look[/i]?"...[/QUOTE]
Yup, you bet that Peru comment was for you buddy!....though, admittedly, I thought of Peru as just about the hottest country on earth. Clearly, Geography isn't my strong suit.
As for making more observations about certain players and the way they've played...great point. It's something I've tried to do in the past in some shows, but we (Pmac and I) try to place the majority of the time and effort of each episode into "news stories" about the teams. That's not to say we deliberately de-emphasize the game recaps, but that is the way it often pans out.
Still, like I said, your point is definitely a good one and I'll remember it when doing my preparation for future episodes. Thanks dude!

pmac is certainly a good sport about the requisite knicks diss (or two or three) that you throw in every game. :oldlol:
btw, record wildfires are unfortunately probably a very regular thing that will be happening down under. australia's national academy of sciences has predicted a very hot future for oz unless we fix global warming.
Episode #54 has been recorded and released. In this one, Pmac and I recap all the games played by both the Nets and Knicks since episode #53, and review All-Star weekend in its entirety.

I've been informed that there's an issue with subscribing to episode #55 via iTunes. At this stage, I don't know what's causing the problem. I'll try to figure it out, but in the mean time, you can listen to the episode by clicking the direct .mp3 link in the post before this one.
Cheers.
The iTunes issue seems to have resolved itself. You should be able to subscribe to episode #55 now and download it from iTunes without any problems.
Apologies for the lack of new episodes over the last couple of weeks. You can put that down to a HEAP of scheduling issues.
Episode #56 has now been recorded and released. In this one, I reluctantly bid farewell to Stephon Marbury as an elated Pmac shows his eagerness to put the Knicks
Episode #57 has now been recorded and released. In this one, we cover all the games played by the Nets and Knicks since episode #55 - discussing everything from the high scoring of Larry Hughes, to the worst Nets loss of the season, to the race for the playoffs.

Sorry for the delay with episode #58 guys. We had a HEAP of tech difficulties from when we recorded the episode, to when it was finally uploaded. The word 'nightmare' doesn't begin to describe that situation.
Anyway, In episode #58 - Pmac and I discuss the chances of the Nets and Knicks making the playoffs, their mid-week encounter, and a wager involving the season series between the two teams.

No worries buddy. Will do.

hi rusty- good to see you're still around!
i don't have an i-player yet but need to pick one up ASAP so i'll have something to listen to in the gym. (like your podcasts)
apologies again for not posting at your joint recently- i kind of embarrassed myself there and hope to reach a greater level of maturity before i go back. :S
[QUOTE=gigantes]...[B]apologies again for not posting at your joint recently[/B]- i kind of embarrassed myself there and hope to reach a greater level of maturity before i go back. :S[/QUOTE]
As far as the bold text is concerned - likewise.
As far as the rest is concerned... well I hope you're not serious. You're more mature than about 98% of our members. You're very welcome to come back and post whenever you like.
As for the podcast, well episode #63 is the most recent.
You can check it out here: [url]http://thesportsfans.hipcast.com/download/dbd7896d-a561-c606-b35e-bb7bddef610c.mp3[/url]

More recent than that episode, however, is our newest blog (posted earlier today). It's my in-depth lottery mock draft - obviously with a big focus on our Nets.
I hope all you Nets fans check it out!

cool, rusty.
i finally got my imitation i-pod and have been listening to a lot of podcasts as i ride my bike trainer. so i'll be checking you out...
re: your place,
honestly i would really like insidehoops (jeff) to release me from my mod duties so i can concentrate on netsdaily. so thanks for the compliment, but i'm very unsure how much time or desire i'll have for this place or TSS in future.
EDIT: listened to most of the ep so far and it's a fun episode, but [b]MAN DID YOU TWO GET FACED ON YOUR ORLANDO PREDICTIONS. NOT ONCE, BUT TWICE! TWO SEPARATE ROUNDS OF HUMILIATION![/b]
sorry, couldn't resist. :D
