Devean George exercised his Bird rights and shot down the proposed trade sending him, De Sagana Diop, Devin Harris, Jerry Stackhouse and other considerations to New Jersey for Jason Kidd.

I’m hearing that Stack will stay in Dallas get bought out and re-sign with the team.

Mark Cuban has to be going crazy right now. I’m sure this will get crazier heading up until the trade deadline.

After Sunday, 42 Super Bowls will have come and gone. This question is via TBR who says Super Bowl XIII is the G.O.A.T because of game quality and also because a combined 11 Hall of Fame members played that day. Jackie Smith missing a potential game winning catch in the end zone is one of the most memorable plays in the history of the game. That game featured a couple remarkable catches: One by the acrobatic Lynn Swann and John Stallworth’s game winner down the left sideline.

I have to go with Super Bowl XXXIV. Even though Steve McNair and the Tennessee Titans lost, dude put the team on his back in the fourth quarter fo sho. He had cats all over his on that last drive. There will forever be a debate about if he should have thrown into the end zone, but you gotta give it to Mike Jones (Who?); he made the play and kept Kevin Dyson out of the end zone.
