Bobcats defeat the Grizzlies with a Gerald Wallace tip-in 89-87

Posted by on Jan 9, 2010 in Gerald Wallace, Memphis Grizzlies | 0 comments

There were 8.8 seconds left on the clock,the game was tied 87-87, OJ Mayo who had a STRONG game with 25 points and 6 rebounds had just hit a dagger 3 pointer to tie the game up. Things were looking up for the Grizzlies and then this happened:

Raymond Felton drives to the basket, misses the shot BUT Gerald Wallace outjumps Zach Randolph to tap it in with 0.5 seconds remaining for the game winner. Good Times in Bobcatsland.

There were several Bobcats that contributed heavily towards this win. There was Wallace with 18 points, 8 boards and 3 blocked shots. Raymond Felton led the team in scoring with 19 points to go along with 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocked shots. Flip Murray continued to be warm with 14 points and 2 three pointers.

In seasons past, this was exactly the types of game that the Bobcats would lose. Once OJ Mayo hit that 3 pointer to send the game to OT, that would have been the point where the old Bobcats packed it up, folded their tents and called it an evening. Not any more!

Next up, The Houston Rockets.

5th year franchises

Posted by on Mar 11, 2009 in Memphis Grizzlies, Minnesota Timberwolves, Toronto Raptors | 0 comments

In my quest for context with this whole success thing that the Bobcats seem to be having lately, I’ve looked to the other previous franchises in their early existence.  I’m really curious to see how we line up.  There doesn’t seem to be a blueprint or any type of standard that has been set.  No team comes into the league and lights the world on fire out of the gates.  Here’s a short synopsis of what I’ve found so far:
 
1988 Charlotte Hornets – The team we’re all probably most familiar with, except the young guys on the board here.  Kelly Tripuka was the instant offense, Mugsey Bogues and Rex Chapman were the stars, then came Kendall Gill but no big win totals even though it was the hugest thing ever for this city with every game selling out for 9 straight seasons and season tickets accounting for about 20k seats a game.  It was a different time, first time for this city with any major league professional sport and really, no one knew how bad these guys were.  20 wins, 19 wins, 26, 31 then finally in their, hey wait, it was the 5th year that they broke out onto the scene with their largest win total behind the strong play of Larry Johnson and Alonzo Mourning, then a rookie.  The next year, no playoffs but the year after was the best year until Chris Paul and the New Orleans Hornets went and had the best record in the West.  So, lesson there:  draft well (Gill, Johnson and Mourning) fill in with role players and you might make the playoffs in the 5th year.  Pretty easy to draft well when you hit the lotto once and then get the 2nd overall with Mourning.  Notice there’s no mention of coaches, that would probably be because the Hornets didn’t have any to speak of until Bristow and he was a one hit wonder, never to coach again that I know of. 
Hornets: first 4 years nothing, 5th year playoffs and a freak first round win.
 
1988 Miami Heat – Miami had a bit harder go at it.  I’m not sure why but they were placed in the Western Conference to start out and their road trips had to be the worst.  Rony Seikly was their top rookie the first year and they finished with 15 wins, only to match that last year, the year after winning their championship but I’m skipping ahead.  18 wins the next year and 24 the year after, basically by adding Glen Rice, who coincidentally led the 2nd wave in Charlotte with the Hornets.  The 4th year the Heat actually made the playoffs with Rice, Seikly and Steve Smith, who was a rookie that year and also coincidentally came to Charlotte in the expansion draft and then was sent back to Miami to be a part of the Championship team.  Playoffs year four, not in year 5 back in year six and they’ve been on the up and up ever since.  You could always tell when Miami was good or bad by when Pat Riley was coaching.  Things started going bad so he fired himself and put Stan VanGundy in after a 25 win season in 02-03 then when they were good again he took over for VanGundy, then he backed out towards the end of last year when they were really bad and in full tank mode trying to get the first overall pick.  I like Miami.  They faught throughout the ’90s with the Knicks, that makes you cool to me.
Heat: First 3 years worse than the Hornets but Playoffs in year 4.
 
1989 – Minnesota Timberwolves – The Wolves have had a pretty hard time.  They haven’t had a whole heck of a lot of luck and when they did put some pieces together, they lost in the first round of the playoffs.  Really, they should have changed their name to bounced in the first.  It’s hard to pick on them because they’re the first team we’re looking at in the Western Conference and also because they’ve never done anything.  It’s like picking on the chubby kid in gym class.  You may like him, but he’s not that good at anything.  But you know they’ll hit a high point and maybe they’ll get that one magical day playing hockey or something and score like 5 goals, never to duplicate it again.   Minnesota played their first season in the Metrodome, which is huge and I know you’ve seen the piece they do every year before the Final Four about how it throws you off playing in a huge arena.  Tony Campbell(?) was their leading scorer and I really couldn’t name any other players except for their horrible drafts where they had to take Christian Latener and they wound up with Isaiah JR Rider somehow.  That’s it.  Just look at their chart on basketball-reference.com You can tell where Kevin Garnett came in and thus the first round losses, one good year where they made it to the Western Conference Finals and now they’re bad again. 
T-Wolves: NOTHING UNTIL YEAR 8!!!
 
1989 – Orlando Magic – Other than Charlotte probably the team you know the most about.  Orlando got some star power early and played pretty well until Doc Rivers lost them, as he might have in Boston before the never-fail gift of last season.  They parlayed that year into Dwight Howard.  Anyway, the first few years was basically a whole lot of Nick Anderson, Scott Skiles and a little Sam Vincent and Reggie Theus.  I actually read where Sam Vincent was injured and that was part of the reason the second season went a little down hill.  How do you like that, the most I’ve heard about him in any capacity than holding back a good team as a coach.  Anyway, in the win department they went 18, 31, 21 and then the Diesel came to town.  This guy is a big deal, we all know that now.  He was the first rookie since MJ to make an All Star game.  He tore down entire basket stanchions, he was the most dominant offensive force and back then he even blocked shots.  His rookie year he took the Magic to a tie for 8th but they didn’t have a tie-breaker with Indiana, so they didn’t make the playoffs.  The next year, they did.  The year after: the Finals.  I don’t care what they’ve done since Shaq left, they were huge in the early ’90s.  
Magic: Sam Vincent, Shaq, Playoffs in year 5(but could have easily been in year 4).
 
1995 – Toronto Raptors – Joining the Bobcats as a first year franchise with a Rookie of the Year, Damon Stodumire and the Raptors tore their way to a 21 – 61 record.  A little better the next year and then crash and burn in year 3.  Then Isaiah Thomas left and like always, things got better.  I really don’t have much to say about Canada except that they too made the playoffs in year 5. 
Raptors: Isaiah Thomas, Damon Stodumire, Camby then they got real in year 5 and made the playoffs.
 
1995 – Vancouver Grizzlies – Vancouver was horrible, Memphis wasn’t much better, except for the Hubie Brown years.  Seriously, Big Country, Sharif Abdu Rahhim and not much else…they didn’t make the playoffs until year 8, and they had 8 wins one year ( the 98-99 strike shortened year ).  EIGHT!  I don’t know but I can’t think of anything good to say about the Memphis/Vancouver franchise.
Grizzlies – NOTHING UNTIL YEAR 8!!!
 
So that’s it.  6 teams in my lifetime.  Two have done nothing.  Two were pretty successful and 2 moved.  As to playoff berths, everyone has made it at some point.  The only team to make it before the 5th season was Miami.  Miami has to be the measuring stick you look at for a “modern” NBA franchise.  They’ve had the fewest coaches, they’ve won a championship, and promoted from within.  Does the fact that they’re in Miami help?  Yeah.  Has Pat Riley’s influence helped?  Probably.  Were their first 5 years as successful as the Bobcats?  I don’t know.  It depends on what you call success.  Attendance, wins, playoff appearances, popular players.  I’d say even on playoffs in 5 years (assuming the Bobcats make it this year.  HUGE ASSUMPTION).  Even on popular players (both teams have developed from within and through drafts).  Wins, Charlotte has more.  Attendance is no comparison.  It was impossible to not sell NBA tickets in the early ’90s especially in new cities.  Miami hasn’t always had the best attendance but Charlotte is so far lacking, even the win difference (Charlotte had 14 more after 4 years) is hugely overshadowed by the seeming irrelevance to the team’s home city. 
 
I feel like, as Bobcats fans, we can be happy, not disappointed with the first 5 years of the new Charlotte NBA franchise.  They have gotten better every year except for the debacle that was the Ham Biscuit Era.  With a little luck and a lot of hard work this team could make the playoffs this year which would be right about on pace with everyone else, except the horrible, hapless Timberwolves and the sorry, sad Grizzlies.  That sounds a lot better than the same adjectives before “Charlotte Bobcats.”

BigCat’s Take on the streak

Posted by on Mar 10, 2009 in Memphis Grizzlies, Oklahoma City Thunder | 0 comments

I’m honestly, kind of freaking out about the last few weeks in Bobcats history.  6 straight wins is a big deal.  Legit chances in playoff hunt is a huge deal.  Wheeling and dealing and making mini-roster moves to get ready for the playoffs and just getting set and ready under a legit coach and a front office that may have learned their lessons, even bigger.  I’m looking for a little context.  I feel like I’m not supposed to talk about it.  I hit bobcatsplanet.com and there it is, uncharted territory, 6 straight, playoffs but shhhhh, are we really supposed to be talking about this?  Isn’t it kind of like a no-hitter?  No one talks about it until it’s over?  I mean I was ready to be Randy Quaid in Major League for the next 2-3 years.  I’m not even sure how to act exactly.
 
All I can think to do is look at the “recent” NBA expansion teams.  20 years work for you?  The last important team to me in the NBA was of course, the Hornets of the 1988 expansion class.  They came in with Miami.  Miami has won a championship but that was like 2006?  18 years?  New Orleans, Charlotte, you can’t really talk about what the Hornets are or what they’ve done because of the move and because of Katrina, right?  They’re in good hands with Chris Paul and his current teammates.
 
1989 brought Minnesota, Orlando and yours truly’s first kiss.  Yeah, 7 years old and I laid one on her, we were playing wedding because that’s the only way you could get the girls in the neighborhood to stay close enough to you to throw things at them, ahhh one of the twins, Lorrine or Lorraine and I’m not making up those names folks.  Anyway, peak for Orlando could be right now or last year but really, it’s got to be the Shaq/Penny team that went to the finals and lost against Houston in one of the Jordanless years of the ’90s.  Minnesota might have made a finals, maybe with KG?  Actually, I don’t remember them as an expansion team but whatever, they’re up there in Minnesota, aye, who keeps up with them?
 
Nothing happened until 1995 when the Panthers came into existence along with the two teams that made the “National Basketball Association” “International” with Toronto and Vancouver.  Toronto is still Toronto but The Grizzlies kept the name, lost Big Country and moved to Memphis, where there are no Grizzlies but there are plenty of guys you could call “Big Country.”  Memphis has never really done anything, I can’t remember them making the playoffs, maybe once with Gasol?  Toronto’s peak came over an All-Star Weekend when Tracy McGrady tossed an ally-oop to Vince Carter in the sickest Slam Dunk performance ever.  We’ll actually research these in a minute, I’m just making a list right now, I think….
 
2004 our dearly beloved Bobcats came into existence and that would end our list, except Wikipedia claims Oklahoma City’s Thunder is an expansion team (though they maintain the roster of the Sonics?”  First I’ve heard of this.  Either way, they don’t count.  Charlotte’s highest win total would be 33 and the biggest national moment would have to be Okafor’s Rookie of the Year award?  Until the playoffs actually happen, I’m not sure if you can say the triple overtime Lakers victory or the Boston overtime victory or the Phoenix beatdown could measure up to Okafor’s ROY trophy on a national scale.
 
So, we’re in year 5 right now, 28-35, fourth in the Southeast and tied for 10th in the East, 1 game out of the 8th spot.  How did the other expansion teams in my cognizant lifetime fare in the first 5 years?  Hell, this is starting to feel like a research paper, more tomorrow or the next day…I’ve got some work to do.

Charlotte Bobcats / Memphis Grizzlies recap 1/22

Posted by on Jan 22, 2009 in Memphis Grizzlies | 0 comments

Bobcats beat Memphis cause that’s what they’s supposed to do.  What?  You want a cookie?
 
It took a while, long game it felt like.  Seriously, games like tonight need to just be run and run and run time out, run, halftime, run run run timeout, run some more, game over.  Bobcats win by 17 but man this game dragged out.  Turnovers, sloppy play, missed lay-ups, questionable foul calls, it just wore on me.  So did the 35 lbs of clothes I had on.  It’s cold but man and I have some kind of sinus thing going on and I’m scared to get cold, so I sweat during most of the game.  Sorry to sound like an old Jewish lady, ”My son, the doctor, tells me this time of year is the worst, just the worst for colds.”  Anyway, Bobcats starters played well, the bench however only accounted for 16 points.  Coach Brown said on the radio after the game something to the effect of, “Yeah, it’s on me to make the bench work.  I left Gerald out there (LB’s quote: I just want to mention here that Gerald’s all around game is getting better and better.  He keeps playing this way and he’ll be piling up the triple doubles in no time) I don’t know, I wanted to leave Raja out there, not that I don’t trust Shannon to guard Mayo…”  Then he trails off into his LB stream of consciousness drumming his fingers on the table and making everyone’s mic go nuts.   
 
Listen, the Bobcats are playing pretty well, however they need to get more out of the bench and cut the turnovers.  All I want is consistent scoring out of Adam Morrison and no fall off on defense from Gerald, Raja and Mek to Shannon, Diop and whoever our back-up to Gerald is.  I guess we don’t do a line change, like the coach at my alma mater did.  The rotation hasn’t given itself, no one off the bench has really shown what they want to do on a consistent basis.  All I ask is consistency, but lo, this is the NBA.  Injuries, match-ups, attitude and the constant drive of the schedule does not help with gaining consistency.  Nights like tonight should be where you hone your bench’s confidence but it wasn’t to be.  
 
4 ties in the first half and a scare or 3 in the 3rd quarter didn’t allow Larry to sub in his bench and let the guys get a good run.  While I’m dwelling on the bench and their lack of help, I forget that DJ Augustin is out and has been for the last 3 games and probably will be out for 2-3 more.  DJ brings something big off the bench and probably replaces whatever starter is having the worst night, as the ’Cats go down the stretch in games.  I don’t think he can single handedly keep the starters rested but he takes the 6th man role and responsibility off of Adam Morrison, which frees him up to be the shooter we need him to be.  I see the joy of LB’s 2 PG system now.
 

So yeah, I had a lot of time to think while BS fouls were being called, balls taken out of bounds, calls argued, and layups were being missed, tonight.  I just hope that Friday will bring good things against a “good” team in the west.  I use “” because any team that loses to the Knicks can’t be that good.

Blazers & Spurs Wrapup plus the Memphis Grizzlies preview

Posted by on Jan 20, 2009 in Memphis Grizzlies, Portland Trailblazers, San Antonio Spurs | 0 comments

Welcome to the 3 game win streak, by round of applause how do you feel?

 
It’s Stand Up Month on Comedy Central.  Last weekend I laid on the couch and ended a run of pretty good comedians with the biggest name in comedy from about 8 years ago.  Dane Cook is lame as hell but he took one of my original ideas for “BigCat: The Stand Up Experience.”   It drives me crazy that an acceptable form of communication is “WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO”  Sort of like the greeting “Hey.”  Anyway, he made the point that no where else does the “By round of applause how do you feel?” work.  But after tonight I feel all “WHOOOOOOO” and standing ovation, clapping and hollering for about 10 mins after the game, and you know what?  I actually did.  That was awesome.  I wish we had ended it in the regulation period but overtime WIN will have to do.  Man, we’ve had 4 chances at that 3rd win this year and finally January 17 it happens.  Gerald Wallace with 31, Okafor with 22.  BY ROUND OF APPLAUSE, HOW DO YOU FEEL?
 
Gerald Wallace had one of the best dunks that I’ve seen all year.  Greg Oden got posterized by both Gerald and Okafor as well as blocked by Adam Morrison.  When I went to the bathroom with about 98 seconds left in the game, whenever that last time out was, the radio announcer mentioned that the Blazer’s bench had 41 of their 90 or something points at the time.  That’s a lot.  Bayless, Fernandez, yeah, big deal.  We’ve got Raymond Felton and he’s feeling it at the end of games.  He made some beautiful moves there at the end of regulation.  Got his man, Fernandez (I think) on his heels and nailed a shot to pull ahead by 2 but this game was destined for overtime. 
 
I really liked how Charlotte held the lead for most of the game.  Strong game for the ‘Cats.  And I fell asleep before finishing this one…lets move on to this afternoon against San Antonio, shall we?
 
I couldn’t decide what to do with today’s game.  It’s 2pm tip, I didn’t have the day off.  So umm anyway, the game was cool.  Sean May was in uniform was the first basketball related thing I noticed.  Who didn’t?  I mean come on the guy is huge.  That was not nice but hey, it was there for the taking.  DJ is still hurt and Diop, who I still haven’t decided on how to pronounce, wasn’t ready to play, he only practiced through part of it yesterday according to professional radio announcer Stan Smith.  Side-note: has anyone noticed that the station that carries the Bobcats games has changed to Latin radio?  You know, you get in the car the morning after a game and it’s still tuned there and you hear the trumpets and maracas?  What’s the deal?  How can this town not support an oldies radio station? 
 
Anyway, game started well for the Bobcats even though Tim Duncan scored on his first 3 baskets and made it look easy.  I really wish I could have payed closer attention but I had friends come in from out of town and buddy of mine brought his “new” girlfriend and I had to do the whole “Hey, nice to meet you.  What do you do for a living?  How did you meet?  Thanks for confirming my friend isn’t gay, thing.”  Anyway, the game was fun.  I mean I can’t stand the way San Antonio plays.  I saw their first offensive set and to be honest I figured it’d be a really boring game.  They have the offensive set of, 3′s are worth more than 2′s.  I figured they’d just spread it out, pick and roll, Ginobli, Parker and Duncan making back door cuts.  Hill, Oberto, Mason no one really took over the game but the Bobcats were down by 8 to end the quarter.
 
I wasn’t really worried because I kept hearing my Dad’s voice in my head “Ugh, you know son, the Bobcats aren’t really that bad.  It just seems like they don’t get the ball through the hoop as often as the other team.”  Basically the Bobcats are fun and easy to watch, even when they’re down by 8.  The 2nd quarter kind of threw me.  I didn’t understand why Larry was leaving Mohommed out there for such a stretch.  Also, Howard, I like the attitude but he doesn’t bring much in the way of points.  It’s the presence I guess.  Also, Duncan sat for most of the 2nd and 3rd, Larry liked his match-up there I think.  Okafor and Duncan match up pretty well.  I like how Okafor plays against him.  The offensive end for Okafor is rarely strong, but this after noon he actually dunked on him.  I don’t like Duncan at all.  He constantly whines, he’s never committed a foul and when he does he holds his hands up and backs away like a b-word.  Just as he did today and Gerald let him know he didn’t appreciate it and I think that was the sequence that led to Larry getting a tech to end the half.  I made a really good joke when the Bobcats came back from half.  “Hey SEAN!  How does it feel to wear a uniform?”  Good one right? 
 
Coming back after the mini-Bobcats or whatever the bunches of kids roaming the court was at halftime, (yeah I ripped on some 7-8 year old kids.  What about it?) Finley got to take the technical foul shot.  I thought that was a little weird but whatever, I don’t think he made it.  I was trying to find a soda.  3 concession area’s open today, TWC Arena staff?  Really?  You thought only like 1/4 of the crowd wanted something to eat or drink at 2-5 PM today?  Smart…By the time I got back to my seat the Cats were actually up by 3.  You can attribute most of that comeback to Raja Bell.  Raja played well today, he really did.  I just kept looking up at the scores and hey, dude had like 21.  It actually surprised me, I guess because I missed that run to open the 2nd half.  Morrison couldn’t get anything, couldn’t get open, didn’t make his shots.  Sean Singletary played pretty well on defense and didn’t make any turnovers.  I was happy going into the 3rd, with Okafor grinding Duncan’s shoulder blade just letting him know he just got dunked on and the ‘Cats holding a lead.  4th quarter and the Spurs come back, somehow, I guess the Bobcats were missing shots they were making them.  Thanks there John Madden.  I can’t analyze it, I don’t think the Bobcats were giving it away and I don’t think the Spurs were taking over.  I guess, looking at the play-by-play it started with Ginobli’s 3 with 3:30 to go in the game, then another 3.  But then the Bobcats made some free throws and it didn’t seem like it was getting out of hand, but 3 vs 2 here and there with them making a few free throws…then Duncan on sort of an isolation and Okafor blocked his shot.  Felton, trying a little too hard again to end the game, get’s his shot blocked by Duncan straight to Diaw for 3 and he missed it barely to lose to the damn Spurs for the 8th time out of 9.  Whatever, we’ll see you flopping a-holes in San Antionio March 10, when we’ll be rolling towards the playoffs.
 
Wednesday, the Memphis Grizzlies come to town and as the PA guy told me, their star player is OJ Mayo.  Do you feel like you’ve been hearing about OJ Mayo since he was 11?  The new rule comes into effect before his “rookie” season and he is forced to go to USC, that would be Southern Cal, not the other “Carolina” you hicks.  I remember asking someone “Is USC a good college team for being in the Pac-10?”  “No, he’s just going there because he wants to be in LA before he gets drafted.  You know he’ll only be there one year.”  That’s when I knew that the one year of college rule was BS.  Anyway, the Bobcats had their most complete victory and largest margin in Memphis before the J-Rich trade.  The comments after from some of the veterans were along the lines of “Yeah, nice win but we play again tomorrow and then the rest of the season.  Don’t pat yourselves on the back so fast.  Be a pro.”  I can’t find that link but I remember reading it.  After 3 straight and then today’s narrow loss to San Antonio, I hope they remember to keep their heads and just go out and beat the Griz.  It’s easily do-able and I would like to see Diop get some run if we get up large.  You know who else I’d like to see?  Alexis!  GEEE man that would be awesome….We’ll see, we shall see.  Stay tuned BCP!

Bobcats / Grizzlies Recap 12/20

Posted by on Dec 20, 2008 in Memphis Grizzlies | 0 comments

Bobcats @ Grizzlies 12/19/08 Recap 

What a complete victory?  Top to bottom just a beat down of an inferior team.  I can say that tonight after such a huge win, I mean come on have you seen the box score?  25, 26, 22 from Mek, Diaw and Wallace respectively.  Raja was all over Mayo, first to hold him under 10 ever in the NBA.  The PG’s with 18 total assists.  Ajinca came in for some garbage minutes (under 4 total) scored 6 points on 3-4 shooting.  The whole team was .658 from the field.  Rebounds were 41 to 23!  Just complete domination on both ends and a complete victory, not much else I can say.   

Memphis does not impress me.  They are so young and inexperienced and don’t seem like they can run a play or something.  Mike Ivaroni has his work cut out for him.  The team leaders are Rudy Gay and OJ Mayo, possibly the worst sports combo name in existence.  The Gay-Mayo combo looks like a joke from strange wedding couples or something Leno would do.  I know that’s mean and you shouldn’t make fun of people’s last names because seriously, unless they want to change it to something like Ocho Cinco you can’t do anything about your last name.  That’s a very Berman thing to do.   

DJ Augustin is a huge bright spot on this team.  I know consecutive games of him playing well and the other high draft pick, Mayo and previously Rose, not playing well, is going to get things going on the ROY talk.  My buddy DJ didn’t get the points but he did play well.  2 points 10 assists but 5 turnovers.  I was trying to remember the last Rookie of the Year that was a PG and forgot about one of my least favorite players: Chris Paul.  According to this: Paul, the fourth overall pick in the 2005 NBA Draft, averaged rookie highs of 16.1 points, 7.8 assists, 2.24 steals and posted 21 double-doubles to lead the Hornets to a 20-win improvement over last season.  Previous to tonight’s game, DJ is averaging 13.9, 4.5 and .6 steals.  The 10 assists will help but 2 points and 0 steals won’t help.  Dude is 4th among rookies in scoring and 2nd in assists.  He’ll be fine, I’m not saying he’s leading the race for ROY but a couple more 25+ nights and we need to get a chant started.  How do you chant Rookie of the Year?  Or ROY?   

I look forward to tomorrow night against Golden State.  They got handled tonight in Atlanta, losing 115-99.  5 of the Hawks finished with double figures lead by Marvin Williams’ 22.  I see Diaw and Okafor going off again tomorrow night.  Those two seem to be finding a rhythm.  Brandan Wright was one of GSW’s high point men tonight but I doubt he’ll do the same tomorrow.  Marco Belinelli had 27 but Bell isn’t tired from chasing around the likes of Mayo and Gay.  Let’s get a roll going here ‘Cats.  I need it after this week of traffic and shopping hassles.  Seriously, have you seen it out there?
