My Fanster colleagues Greg Esposito and Matt Blake were discussing the upcoming Suns season with me this afternoon and naturally, the subject of Amare’s future came up.
Greg is legitimately concerned that Stoudemire will bolt once he’s able to exercise his player option in a couple of years. This is a worry I share with […]

My fellow Planet Orange residents,
I do not plan on going anywhere.
You might have heard I have a bad back.  You might have heard I will soon be entering my late 30’s.  YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD I have logged quite a few minutes while being asked to shoulder an incredible load in Mike D’Antoni’s fun n’ […]

Minus a healthy iris in his right eye, Amare will apparently be wearing goggles for the rest of his career.  As a dedicated follower of fashion, Amare will no doubt break out some rather stylish eyewear.
If he’s smart, he’ll get himself an endorsement deal out of the situation, and maybe even spark a new league […]

My brother and I headed down to Tucson yesterday afternoon for the Suns intrasquad scrimmage at McKale Center, despite our shared dislike for all things UofA (sorry, Matt.) Even though we left a half an hour late, almost ran out of gas on the way down there, and forgot a camera (all my […]

We have a plethora of links today, with a bunch coming from Coro covering training camp.  Let’s get to it.
-Shaq says the odds were against the team succeeding last year after he came over in the trade and can’t help but get a dig in on the Heat yet again.  Let it go, big man.
-Terry […]

Well, here’s a picture from Suns Fantasy Camp a couple of weeks ago.  The goofball in the middle with the big ol’ sh*teating grin who the Suns dancers can’t seem to keep their hands off is yours truly.  Not sure how those other four guys got in the picture.
Best day ever.

Whoa.  Wow.  Jeez.  Oh man.  Holy sh*t.  That’s what I found myself saying when reading John Hollinger’s Phoenix Suns season preview.  
Hollinger loves Nash and Amare (how can one not?) but isn’t a big fan of the changes Steve Kerr made in the offseason.
Okay, okay.  He hates, despises, loathes, the changes Steve Kerr made to the […]

Paul Coro reminds us this morning that:
Drafting Lopez 15th in June gives the Suns their first pairing of 7-footers in the rotation since the 2000-01 season, when Jake Tsakalidis and Daniel Santiago played.
Shaq and Lopez are more of a formidable tandem than Jake the Greek and Santiago, that’s for sure.  So much so that I […]

Brett Edwards of AOL Fanhouse attended Suns Media Day and came away with a bit of humor from Steve Nash.  I’d usually make things easy on you and embed the video but hey, this is AOL we’re dealing with here.
Be sure and check out highlights from the media’s Q&A with Coach Porter, as well as […]

For the most part, I was fortunate enough to have great teachers throughout my educational career.  They were smart, funny, sometimes attractive, and usually very good at their jobs.  However, as is always the case in life, there were exceptions to the rule.
A few of my teachers or professors were known to be nasty, miserable […]
