I legit think that the likes of Essential and CP have a more firm grasp on the Lakers money situation than Kobe, and I'm not sure if it's a credit to them, or a knock on them.
If only you could see my computer at work, my laptop, my file cabinets, or emails to my own self.....
And I'm not even that smart. There is literally a ton I don't yet know.
But I search, and devour. It runs thru my head 24/7. Draft picks NFL (Dolphins), Free Agents/Draft NBA (Us), Minor League system MLB (Cubs), Recruiting NCAA (Miami), its always on. No matter what I do, 80% of my brain scans/scrolls info on these subjects.
I study history........like Jimmy Johnson in Dallas, then Miami. How the Colts built around Peyton. Green Bay. The Patriots.
I study Jerry West. All the way back to Mikan. Phil. UNLV, Fab Five, ACC.....Orlando now, some Utah, what OKC did, GS.
The Yankees. Devil Rays. Moneyball. Theo, Sox and Cubs.
Twitter helps a ton.
Tomorrow I go to work, short day, long weekend, I will update Dolphin spreadsheet, The U, Lakers, NBA Draft, 2014 and 2015 NFL Draft, and NBA Salary spreadsheets, then email all of them to myself so I can open on laptop at home to store them.
If I ever lose my job, my first fear will be losing my sheets, its why I update so often, then send to laptop, just in case. I worry about those, before I realize I'd be earning no more money.
Not sure what happened to me, but sports is wired into my soul. I'm pathetic.
It's the only thing I'm any "good" at. Not even playing sports.........following them, I guess.
I spent hours running numbers for 2014... I was on the verge of figuring out how to manage, manuever, draft, and create a fool proof team. And by verge, I mean I just had to figure out the order of everything to make sure we followed CBA to stay under cap to sign max players. Young with the exception of Kobe and couple of role players.. Scorers, Shooters, Slashers.. A **** ton of defense.. Under luxury tax as well.. Then Kobe and the Lakers just **** all over my hard work..
