Re: Doug McDermott

MY bad, yes the Cavs, I was looking at the previous post...(that's what I get for trying to post on my Windows Phone)
It sounded for a while that the Cavs were out out the Love Sweepstakes, which put the Bulls on the table, but now it seems certain the Cavs will be trading for him.

Sounds like the Bulls will trade for Love after Wiggin's 30 day post signing draft eligibility ends in a few weeks.

Re: Bravo! Cucina Italiana (Village Pointe)

Don't get me wrong, our service was above average, but to get the real accolades, your wait needs to know what is good or not on the menu that day, but those are hard to find, and when you do, you always sit at their tables.
