Well, come on. Someone has to step up and lead this young Warriors team. Everyone who watched the team regularly last year knows that Baron Davis brought much more then his great stats to the team. That's why his departure gives rise to one of biggest unknowns for the 2008-09 season. Who will lead this team?

Warriors management made a big move today that should help retain the dwindling female fan base. Resigning Kelenna Azubuike.

Oh, and they resigned Monta too.

Could it be Jermaine O'Neal? Perhaps Detroit's Jason Maxiell. If all else fails, we could search the Sierra's for Sasquashi...

Obama's quick hands netted a few Boom-esque steals while hooping with the Kokomo High Schoolers. His 3-on-3 team, which included Indiana Fever player Alison Bales, took the 15 minute game 15-5.

Janny Hu of the SF Chronicle is reporting Chris Webber will announce his retirement after 15 seasons in the NBA at a press conference tomorrow morning at 10am.

Regardless of his production (or lack of) on the hardwood for the Dubs, it sounds like the move to bring C-Webb back to Oakland has been productive and emotional healing for he and Nelson.

The race is the West in fearsome. It's time for ALL Warriors fans to 'beard up" for the final push. Get yours today!

"Gasol to the Lakers makes them a contender. O'Neal to the Suns and Kidd to the Mavs makes them contenders. Benson to the Warriors? Oh snap son! They just became contenders!"

We would like to recognize our own movie mogul, Oakland point man and all-around swagger talisman, Boom Dizzle for his contributions to the Hollywood fodder this year. Now, the nominees...

In the last few weeks one Warrior has been in most every conversation among our posse. Some of us call him "Bay Bay", some call him "Monta All Day" or just "Young Monta". But all of us know he his real name. "The Future".

The Western Conference coaches may want to reconsider. This might just make The Beard rattle off a couple 40-point outings and rack up a few more triple-doubles in protest.

The enormous growth on Mankins' face that covers far down his neck. The top-flight guard, a first-round pick by New England in 2005, has been growing it since August. In all that time, he hasn't taken a razor to it to trim it in any way, the hair growing in undulating patterns that resemble some model formed by a wave machine.

Reebok jumped on the bandwagon for Boom Dizz. But was it too little too late?

All-star voting is complete. Now we wait to see if Baron Davis and his much deserving beard make the list on the 29th. Meanwhile, Forbes has released their own list. America's Top 10 Sports Mascots.

Caveman scruff vs. Teddy Pendergrass proper. 43 points vs. 19 assists. Whose whiskers reign supreme?

Next year, the Warriors own Austin Croshere will take on such a talisman. And, god willing, by the end of a perfect 82 win season, the Dubs will have made history...
