Jerry Stackhouse needs his tights

If you are thinking about picking Jerry Stackhouse next season, please check the NBA’s uniform regulations first. If they ban tights next season, Stackhouse could be in for a very bad season.

“They’ve really become important to me,” Stackhouse said, ESPN reported. “I’ve had a couple groin injuries and they help me get comfortable. I wear thigh sleeves, too, and the tights also help keep them from sliding down my legs. They just hold everything together.”

So, if the NBA bans tights, Jerry Stackhouse will literally FALL APART. I’m pretty sure that would preclude him from scoring anything near the 23 points he had when the Mavs got demolished by the Cavs a couple days ago.

In other news: Why does Microsoft insist on breaking Firefox? That MSNBC article above (see “ban tights next season”) is completely unreadable in THE BEST BROWSER. Okay… sure, I understand they have a business interest in deliberately structuring their pages to not work in Firefox. The ironic part is that the article also looks like complete shit in Internet Explorer. There’s like 4 words per line and the rest of the page is taken up with ads and links to other content (where they can show you more ads). Compare their 5 paragraph article to the 5 paragraph article you are reading here. I was going to make some cool poll like they have on YaySports sometimes, but it’s not even worth it for this one. I will be happy to read ugly-ass MSNBC articles for you, so that you never have to look at such a horribly designed page again (at least until you find something on About.com).
