Talk about a WTF moment! Tim Donaghy, in my mind should be given the max of 25 years in prison. An out involving money shouldn’t even be an option! I can’t seem to figure out why on earth would be want to cheat the system and the dignity of the game. The guy makes $260k a year. One would think that its more than enough to live on. Maybe I wouldn’t be as focused into this current event if he hadn’t been calling the Suns vs Spurs series but he was and me being a Suns fan..I am a bit pissed off! As if it wasn’t bad enough that the Suns got the short end of the stick with the body check of Nash from Horry and it was Diaw and Stat who got suspended for leaving the bench at that instant. Talk about another WTF moment. Don’t even get me started on that one! So apparently, in court, Donaghy said he is receiving psychiatric treatment for his gambling problem and is taking antidepressant and anxiety medication. Well damn, I should bill him for the anxiety meds I needed during the playoff series! Not that I took any but I am just saying..

On a side note, I love Reggie Miller. He’s one of my all time favorite players. He should not come out of retirement to play for the Celtics. He had a good run with the Pacers, a great player, last second daggers, hate him if you’re playing with him and a great retirement tribute and ceremony. Let’s not ruin it. I even had a tear watching your retirement on TV.  Stay retired..I like listening to you commentate. Besides, should Miller play for the Celtics and they meet the Suns in the Finals, I wouldn’t know which team to root for. Who am I kidding, Go Suns! Stay retired Reggie!
