    Please! Techies were pulling this move decades ago -- most notably when Ethernet inventor Bob Metcalfe ate his words about an Internet crash he predicted:

    He's averaging 11 points and 12 rebounds after about EIGHT GAMES. But for his admittedly short career, he's averaging about six points for each. A little early on the column dining, Morrissey. Talk to me when Noah averages a double-double for his CAREER. #retractions

    @A Message To Rudy: remember that homeboy tore it up in the playoffs last year, as well.

    but yeah, point taken. #retractions

    @johnny_carsick: Living here in Chicago I am well aware of his playoff surge. I am also well aware of his carboard-like presence the previous 100-plus games, so, yeah, I do feel that even with his post-season heroics, saying he has proven himself is a little premature. #retractions

    @A Message To Rudy: well, noah's the kind of player that's only really effective in certain kinds of systems - he can run, passes well, and has a good handle for a big guy.

    i think skiles had something to do with handcuffing him then, i think derrick rose deserves a bit of credit for how he's playing now. kid's coming into his own.

    that being said, i'm a homer. loved those back-to-back UF teams. and i generally hate UF. #retractions

    @johnny_carsick: Yeah, I definitely see your point. Some of the pressure's off Noah with Rose coming in. That plus the fact that he's maturing as a player will hopefully lead to more boards (the main thing I want out of him). Dont' get me wrong, I like the guy. Just hasn't proven that he deserves the apologies of any doubters yet. To me. #retractions

    Both of these guys are wonderful.

    I'd like to see Arianna Huffington eat all of the passages in her books that she "improperly referenced." #retractions

    I don't know what's sadder? The very idea, the execution, Rick's shirt, the salsa, the fact that he's going to crap this later, it's 5:00 of total sad. #retractions

    It is the duty of everyone in the computer gaming industry to only make war games that stimulates my sense of patriotic hubris as I wipe the Cheeto dust from my plump and pale fingers onto my filthy sweatshirt.
