It's entirely about partying... And thankfully, due to flopping fines, hopefully we will never see CP3 step any further down that dangerous road... @ Ron: The Joakim Noah route was in full effect up there. You know what I mean. Uh huh. @ Jim E: And I too have seen my share of upstate NY sporting events! Memories... @ Mattmc: I wouldn’t want to distract him from his game or anything…

That is, so many technicals and you get a mandatory suspension. They should do the same thing regarding flops. Actually, now that I mention it, I'm partial to flops being called AS technicals. But either way, Michael's right. There needs to be some additional penalty. I mean the good news is, Ely, Bowen, and the guys on the bottom of the list (and those similarly situated elsewhere) might put a stop to it, but don't look for the big moneymakers to give a flip.

Honestly I still feel like the league is being controlled because the way some things happen. Refs will have total control over what is a flop and what isn't and that means veteran floppers(kobe) will continue to get the same calls. Frankly they need to find a better way to handle things like three point plays and if the lakers get one more four point play I'm going to throw up.

It's no Ithaca College, but it's alright I guess. Just kidding. (Go Bombers though!) I'm gonna go out on a limb and say I'm the only Hornets Hype visitor who has seen the St. Lawrence Saints in action in men's basketball, women's basketball, football and field hockey. I've always said the Empire 8 is an underrated conference.. Have fun on your trip back to the best state in the union. haha St. Lawrence? It’s no Ithaca College, but it’s alright I guess.

(Insert patent-pending 'mW sarcasm button'). Hahaha. Safe travels, and don't talk to the police. Anyway, good news posted, especially on a fitting step towards the 'Stop the Flop' movement, though in all honesty, CP3 needs to be careful too. Next stop: Relinquishment of all past salaries and championships due to flopping...
