When I first read the headline yesterday that FIU was looking to hire Isiah Thomas as the head coach of their basketball team, I thought it'd never really happen. Wrong! It did happen and now Isiah Thomas is headed to South Florida! I guess this is a good look for them because all they were known for before was Raja Bell and that nigga with the droopy eye on College Hill South Beach. Maybe they should hire Matt Millen to head up their football program next lol.
I wonder why FIU was so eager to bring him in?? If he sexually harassed someone as ugly as Anucha Browne in New York, there's no telling what he'll do with all the sweet ass down here. The nigga's head might explode! I go to FAU, but I've been to FIU a few times and trust me, there is some fine ones roaming that campus. Welp, I guess we'll have to wait and see how this turns out.

Where Isiah Happens
The other day I was reading Bill Simmons' Page 2 column/blog on ESPN.com and he had this new shit up about some great NBA "what ifs" and #3 had me ROLLIN'! Bill ripped this shit and I was actually thinking about making a real video out of it, but I'll let y'all see what he had to say about #3: What if the Knicks had never hired Isiah Thomas?
This could have been its own bizarro "Where Amazing Happens" commercial called "Where Isiah Happens."
(Cue up the annoying piano music that haunts me every time I try to fall asleep after hearing it for five straight months.)
(Picture of the '05 Suns celebrating after a playoff win.)
Where Phoenix dumps the Stephon Marbury and Penny Hardaway contracts on someone and remakes its team into a contender happens.
(Picture of the '07 Bulls celebrating after a playoff win.)
Where Chicago dumps Eddy Curry for two lottery picks and copious amounts of cap space happens.
(Picture of the '07 Raptors celebrating after a playoff win.)
Where Toronto finds some dummy to take Jalen Rose's contract and aid its rebuilding process happens.

Where a 60-year tradition of professional basketball goes down the tubes happens.
(Picture of Isiah sitting on the bench with that frozen, blank look on his face like he's either flatlining or planning to kill everyone on the locker room after the game.)
Where Isiah Happens.
(Follow-up note: Has a GM ever directly altered the fortunes of SIX franchises before? Portland, San Antonio, Phoenix, Toronto, Chicago and New York. That's 20 percent of the league. See if you can top that resume, Chris Wallace!)
Classic! Here's the rest if you wanna check it out.
