• Question:-Why is the NBA season during the winter?
  Isn't basketball a summer sport? So why does the NBA have their season during the winter months? Hockey is a cold weather sport so it is played in the winter, football is played in the fall to experience the warm and cold weather and baseball is a summer sport played in the summer.
  
  Does my logic make sense to anybody else?
  
  Answer:-You must live somewhere warm. Maybe because all of us east coasters are miserable during the winter months and basketball is the one thing I look forward to during the week. It gives me something to watch and keeps me entertained on those cold winter nights. People are more likely to sit in their house in the winter and watch the games. Summer nights people can go out and enjoy the weather. That might have nothing to do with the real reason, but that is my rational. Also, basketball players do have a spoiled lifestyle, and they get the summer months off if you think about it. They probably don't want the winter months off - they get the summer off.

What are your predictons on teams, trades, and draft picks? Let me know everything you thing is gonna happen during the 09-10 season.
  
  Answer:-- I'm very excited about this upcoming season!
  
  - Blake Griffin. I can't wait to see the Clipper rookie in action! Heard he's better than Amare.
  
  - There will be another big trade involving the: Celtics, Lakers, Spurs, Cavs, Nuggets, or Magic at some point during the season.
  
  - At least one of the above teams will lose a key star to injury.
  
  - At least four coaches will be fired.
  
  - Allen Iverson will sign with a team.
  
  - Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony will both make the All-Star game.
  
  - Trevor Ariza will have a monster year with the Rockets
  
  - At least one all-star will be traded.
  
  - The Lakers will win the Pacific Division by more than 10 games.

• Question:-Can anyone give me info on the NBA season where they played less than 82 games?
  I heard there was an NBA season where there were only like, 50 games played. Why is that? Which season was that? First to give good answer will be awarded 10 points! Thanks!
  
  Answer:-Yeah, it was the 1998-99 season. Due to a lockout, the season did not start until February 5, 1999 after a new six year Collective Bargaining Agreement was reached between the NBA and the National Basketball Players Association. All 29 teams played a shortened 50 game regular season schedule, and the 16 teams who qualified for the playoffs played a full post-season schedule.
  
  I remember that well, and I was pissed because all the squabbling over money. I remember thinking that there wasn't going to be a season at all. The San antonio Spurs won the championship over the New York Knicks 4-1.

  I personaly know Ben Howland but that isn't going t omake a differance im a 4'11" Guard and im bound to grow im in 6th grade.
  How can i get better to get a scholarship?
  
  Answer:-Hold up there. If you are 4'11 in 6th grade, you are gonna have to grow a lot. I'm assuming you will probably end up between 5'7 and 6'0, which is pretty small, so you are going to have to work on your dribbling, 3 point shooting, and defense. Just work your tail off. I think it's great you want to play for the best school ever, UCLA BRUINS!
• Question:-Did UCLA Basketball deserve their wins over Stanford and Cal this past week?
  There was a questionable call at a critical moment in both games. Were the calls valid? Could they have gone either way? Did the officials give UCLA the benefit of the doubt because they were the home team or just because they're UCLA?
  
  Answer:-Hey you can't question the ref's you learn this when your like 2. I think that UCLA fought their heart out and won both games Shipps shot was clean and Collision got the free throws. UCLA fought and won they are a top ranked team and they played to stay there. The calls could have gone either way. I don't think the refs were biased in any way i think it was perception and how they saw what happened.
  
  Go bruins

• Question:-McRIB??!!!??????????????
  WHEN IF EVER IS IT COMING BACK AGAIN? I narrowly missed it in the Southern States...grr. Anyone know of any plans to revive it?
  
  Answer:-Well McDonalds has decided to treat the McRib as a LTO menu item. LTO - Limited Time Offer.
  The McRib was a favorite of many but it did not sustain enough sales to make it a regular menu item. But they have decided to bring it back once and awhile. The last time was last year in Canada for one month. In the States it has not been decided, instead they brought the Southern Style Chicken.
  
  Hope that helps.
• Question:-Liberals. Is the McRib a Conspiracy to divert attention from your attack on Happy Meals?
  Although many fascists want to censor the tasty and tender McRib, that is not the issue and you know it!!!! McDonalds knows there is more profit in getting children hooked on their products. The McDonalds corporation has determined the attack on Happy Meals in San Francisco is having an impact. So they sell the McRib to the weak in order to keep the toys flowing and the happy meals going.
  
  Answer:-
• Question:-Does the return of the McRib signal that we are heading for another recession?
  When McDonald's released the McRib 5 years ago, sales rose 5% and the nation plunged into a deep recession. Now that McDonald's just announced it will sell the tender, savory, tangy, oniony McRib again, will the economy fall?

• Question:-Where on the pig does the meat for the McRib come from?

  Answer:-its whatever product that is leftover from like say ribs, loin all areas that are not pretty enough to sell in a butcher shop...so scraps all pressed together and formed into that fake looking rib patty
• Question:-Why is the McRib such a rare thing on the McDonalds menu?
  People love the McRib, so shouldn't McDonalds make it a regular choice?
  
  Answer:-I don't know, but it makes me mad that it is not a regular menu item.
  
  I guess they do it, to attract a lot of people into McDonald's when they think business is going downhill. It is probably the best sandwich they sell.
