Izzo, that’s too much credit. Posey is alright, at best. He played well for the Heat in 05-06 and was WAY inconsistent last season. Plus he said he wants to have a more expanded role on offense, but he’s going to a team with three more guys who have to have the ball to be successful. And he’s really more of a good team defender and not quite a lock-down guy. Drunken bufoon.

James Posey is a dirty player.

Cheryl says:
are you guys blocking me for some reason? My posts have been hit or miss lately.
Aug.27 at 11:42 am
Cheryl says:
Oh, okay that one went through. I pretty much echoed Eboy in my first post here. We, who live in South Florida recognize that Pose was a decent team defender at best, and could hit a three or two at times, but nothing special.
Aug.27 at 11:42 am
H to the izzo says:
Cheryl:After you announced that you were packing a piece I’m scared of you and would never block you out.Eboy:I meant player in the loosest meaning of the word .
Aug.27 at 11:42 am
white hot eboy says:
They have something against all of us, Cheryl. We’ve all noticed it.

Jess says:
I think this was a good pick up for the celts. Im not a huge Posey fan but the Celts did a good job picking up another player (which they need)..cheap
Aug.27 at 11:47 am
white hot eboy says:
Seriously, if his mind’s right, he’ll fit in well with the Celts. But between him, Eddie House and Pollard, their bench is horrible, still. They still need a solid PG that can run that team.
Aug.27 at 11:53 am
H to the izzo says:
Or maybe if he doesn’t get another suspension for not being properly conditioned.I think that the biggest problem that the Celtics will have is Doc Rivers,I mean they really need a better coach than him and its not like it would be hard to find a replacement,who wouldn’t want to coach these guys?
Eboy:Check my blog for something I think you’ll like
Aug.27 at 12:00 pm
Cheryl says:
Izzo, I’m really not dangerous. I am a really good target shooter, and enjoy the sport. And Eboy, that bench is also really…eccentric. I’d love to see those three hang out in Vegas or someplace like it. Bet it would be fun…
Aug.27 at 12:07 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, in the immortal words of Borat “very nice!!!” It almost seems impromptu, but I doubt it. Cheryl, what do you prefer to fire? I carry a Ruger 9mm in my trials and tribulations in PBC. I enjoy the release of the shooting range too. Can we even discuss this? Whatever, there’s no threats going on.
Aug.27 at 12:20 pm
Tarzan Cooper says:
9mm? ha. i got a 45 with extended clip.
Aug.27 at 12:28 pm
white hot eboy says:
Tarzan, if you shoot like you post, there wouldn’t be a threat to a target if you had a Desert Eagle.
Aug.27 at 12:31 pm
Cheryl says:
Wow, I like where this one is going. My favorite for the range is the S&W .357. I enjoy the power. But my Sig Sauer feels best in my hand and kick back is minimal.
Aug.27 at 12:37 pm
white hot eboy says:
Cheryl, I keep a snub nose S&W .357 in a lock box in my vehicle (now that little eboy thinks he can drive and such). I’ve had that since I was 21. I hope this doesn’t take a turn for the worst. Either gun critics will come through and call us vigilantes or some idiots(s) will say they run their streets like they’re Scarface and shoot first and ask questions later. And Jesus kind of went there already by laughing at the caliber of mine. Big dummy.
Aug.27 at 12:39 pm
Cheryl says:
yeah, that’s a possibility. Let’s hope it doesn’t go there.
Aug.27 at 12:55 pm
H to the izzo says:
I’ll just say:You people scare me sometimes
Aug.27 at 12:58 pm
Cheryl says:
It’s the american way, izzo.
Aug.27 at 1:00 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, do they still go bare-knuckle brawling with a large crowd encircling the two combatants via the Quiet Man, in your area of the world?
Aug.27 at 1:04 pm
H to the izzo says:
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again stereotyping is awesome.
Eboy:Bare knuckle boxing is so 50’s and even if it was, its still not shooting someone
Aug.27 at 1:12 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, so which one is more acceptable to you?
Aug.27 at 1:13 pm
Cheryl says:
I shoot no living thing, Izzo. Just a square piece of paper with concentric circles. I try to hit the smallest one in the middle. Oh year, I also shot a hole in a quarter at 100yards. But, I even made sure the mosquitoes had moved out of the path…
Aug.27 at 1:17 pm
H to the izzo says:
Eboy:Seeing as bare knuckle boxing is non-existent and gangland shooting is a big problem(over here anyway) you do the math as to which one I think is worse
Aug.27 at 1:18 pm
white hot eboy says:
Co-sign Cheryl, dum dum. Except the quarter thing. Damn lady, that sounds like some sniper-type sh*t. It had to be a long-range weapon, right?
Aug.27 at 1:24 pm
H to the izzo says:
Couldn’t you just take up archery if you like target “sports”?
Aug.27 at 1:27 pm
Cheryl says:
oh yeah, but i ain’t going there. don’t want izzo to wet his pants… Just kidding, Izzo. I do understand your concern. I am an activist where it comes to getting guns off the street and stiffening the requirements to owning one. But, it is a sport I picked up from my ex who was a cop. He taught me so I wouldn’t be intimidated with one in the house. As I learned how good I was at targets, I just continued with it. It’s meditative in a strange sort of way. anyway…
Aug.27 at 1:28 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, Cheryl and I can probably go story for story of gun problems in our surrounding areas so I think we know the deal.
Aug.27 at 1:30 pm
H to the izzo says:
Let me tell you Eboy,I have a few personal stories on guns myself,my opposition to them didn’t fall from the sky you know.But I can see were both of you are coming from
Aug.27 at 1:32 pm
white hot eboy says:
Oh and Izzo, just to be clear, as much as I like target shooting, I have no qualms about using the weapon of my choice for self-protection if my business, home or family is threatend. Because as Cheryl pointed out, the gun crimes in this country are commited by criminals and I have no intentions of losing my life to some punk motherfu*ker who illegally has what I have and am well-versed in using.
Aug.27 at 1:34 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, what do you oppose? The owning of them and using them for self-defense by responsible people or the illegal use of them and the mistreatment of them by people who do not use them respectfully?
Aug.27 at 1:38 pm
H to the izzo says:
I oppose guns being easily and readily available to anyone who wants them.Especially when a lot of people use them to pad their ego.I think there should be some sort of aptitude test to those who want them.And I also agree with you,if my life is in danger,that f*cker is gonna get it but only in that situation
Aug.27 at 1:44 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, me and many other’s like me have to take a course in America (at least in Florida) before you are issued a state concealed weapons license. You also have to have your federal records reviewed before legal acceptance of a weapon can occur. So, yeah, there are a large group of people who do it the “right way” liked Larry Brown. But there is an even larger, more dangerous group that makes it bad for the lrest of the population, so it’s double-edged. But I would rather be able to help someone in need with my knowledge than to see an innocent person(s) be exploited, injured or killed by some “wannabe” thug. Just call me Eboy Bronson. Without the mustache.
Aug.27 at 1:47 pm
Cheryl says:
We’re on the same page, Izzo. Trust me. As f*k’d up as it is, I’d rather have one than not. And, it is sad that they’re so readily available. I said “american way” tongue-in-cheek earlier, but on the real, this is this country’s ethos. And that, my friend, could be a whole ‘nother topic of discussion. You know what I like so much about this site? Is that a post about James (no shorts) Posey can turn into a dissertation about gun ownership. Awesome.
Aug.27 at 1:53 pm
H to the izzo says:
Eboy:I was wondering why you liked Dog the Bounty Hunter so much.
I can see why people would feel safer with a gun but I think too many turn to vigilanteism or constantly trying to be a hero making some situations worse than they needed to be.I grew up in a place were one would have been useful and got in a few situations were one could have potentially needed but I did fine without one
Aug.27 at 2:00 pm
white hot eboy says:
Cheryl, can you hit jumpers with 100 yd accuracy like you hit the quarter, cause on the real, I could have used you in the Hoop-It-Up tournament I was this weekend. My dudes were pure garbage. I also ran into your boy “The Coach” Tony Fiorentino and T-Bug. They were there watching Timmy’s nephew, who go’s to school in Miami Lakes. Kid was nice. Cat’s looked at me crazy,when me and Timmy started speaking. I saw him about 2 months ago at my “blog” park. He told me he’s gonna bring his nephew up next time. I’m gonna have to let you know when he’s coming through.
Aug.27 at 2:05 pm
H to the izzo says:
Eboy:I got to see one of those runs you guys have sometime.Sounds like some good comp
Aug.27 at 2:06 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, when you get to Cheryl and my ages, (no slight, lady, you know it’s love)fistacuffs and posturing are way past us. I did that sh*t throughout my teen years and most of my 20’s. When you have your own family, business, home, whatever, sh*t takes a different perspective. And my dad, not too long before he passed, was mugged at gunpoint, by a piece of sh*t, about 1/4 mile from my home, in a supermarket parking lot, when he was coming to visit me, my wife and my son. Needless to say, that is something that can’t be overlooked and part of the reason I stay “warm”.
Aug.27 at 2:07 pm
Cheryl says:
Yeah, I like to see that, Eboy. And alas, my jumper left me a few years back. Haven’t seen her in quite a while now.
Aug.27 at 2:10 pm
Cheryl says:
Hey Y’All, did we scare away everyone else? Or is Posey so inconsequential that no one has checked into this one yet. I do like chatting with you two, though.
Aug.27 at 2:12 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, I have video clips somewhere from a couple of years ago. If I can find them somewhere, you’ll see me pull a step-back jumper in “real” Eboy’s mug and later a clear layup of mine smashed to the parking lot by Caron Butler (with exagerrated commentary by my boy who was filming it).
Aug.27 at 2:12 pm
Cheryl says:
And, by the way. If you guys met me, I can say 100% that unless I told you, you’d never believe I was an enthusiast. I am very laid back and easy going. And this is especially why you should never mess with the quiet ones!
Aug.27 at 2:12 pm
H to the izzo says:
Eboy:I don’t even get involved in that type of crap,but when faced with the type of sh*t that did that to your dad,you do what you need to.
Aug.27 at 2:23 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, let’s just be happy and say that if you ever made it to Florida and saw Cheryl or I, we could keep you safe while in these wild-west type scenarios we’re bullsh*tting about. (Not that you would need it, Tyler Durden) Oh, and Cheryl, the SLAM cats must be finishing an issue, because it’s been dead all around, since last week.
Aug.27 at 2:27 pm
H to the izzo says:
Eboy:I said that I look out for myself,I never said I won the fights.Although you can’t really talk about these things without looking like you’re bragging
Aug.27 at 2:33 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, I know that, I was messing with you. Although, the Irish are known tough guys. And I kind of get douche chills each time I mention the games I run in here, because I know 99.999% of the people reading it are saying “Eboy is a bullshi**er”. Whatever. If I was going big, I’d say MJ, Shaq, Kobe and Lebron came to the house for a barbecue. Actually, those 4 in one spot would be unreal.
Aug.27 at 2:36 pm
H to the izzo says:
Actually Eboy they say: “white hoe boy is a b*tch”
Aug.27 at 2:37 pm

And if all 4 of them were together something tells me a pissing contest would ensue

white hot eboy says:
Izzo, if you had to bet the shamrock farm today, who you got in a two on two game, between, MJ and Shaq, vs. Bron and the Mamba? I think that the young men would destroy them, but I have the feeling the two old men would play out of their minds for one game and pull it out.
Pride is more than a 5 letter word.

And Cheryl, there is either a hint of freakiness to you, or I read that last series of comments you read wrong.

H to the izzo says:
If I had to bet the Shamrock farm I’d go with MJ and Shaq.I’m still having trouble to figure out a plausable explanation,I think I just would pick them.
Aug.27 at 2:50 pm
Russ Bengtson says:
Mo’ guns, mo’ problems. That’s just my opinion, of course. (And I’ve been held up at gunpoint, too. Somehow I think my having a gun would have just made the situation worse. But, again, that’s just me.)
Aug.27 at 2:52 pm
white hot eboy says:
Izzo, I think as long as they got the ball first and kept scoring they could pull it out, but if LBJ and 24 got the ball it would be nasty to watch. Prime vs. Prime, I think the young men get lucky to score more than a few baskets. (You know it’s a dead time around here when we’re coming up with fantasy 2 on 2 games)

you guys are 2 funny. I would love to see that 2 on 2. Would it be all players in their prime? Then you gotta go with MJ and Shaq. c’mon, is there any question?? and as for the “freaky” stuff? i just like to keep y’all on ya toes!
Aug.27 at 3:13 pm
white hot eboy says:
Cheryl, I think “His Groundness” and the “MDE” (Most Dumplings Eaten)could still give the young cats a game. I saw video of Mike at his Flight School camp from earlier in the year and his jumper and fadeaway still look pure.
