Wednesday Bucks Notes

• FreeDarko debates the merits of rooting for the 07/08 Bucks.

  So, what is the compromise between pure liberated fandom and pure home-team allegiance? Adopting a team, as I imagine people in Montana, Kansas, and Louisiana are often forced to do. With no regard for the fact that many of my good friends are from Wisconsin, I am arbitrarily thinking about proclaiming the Milwaukee Bucks as my honorary favorite team this year, and following them with the same zeal that Shoals would follow Gerald Wallace, or Gilbert in his pre-Nevermind days and with the same dedication that the Brown Recluse, esq. would follow any number of Tar Heels.

• Jason Williams at RealGM actually sounds kind of upbeat about the 07/08 Bucks.
  
• Bobby Simmons is going to be a part owner of a high end sneaker shop in Milwaukee. Alligator skin on a pair of Jordans? For $2,300? Not sure about that, Bobbo.
  
• FSN Wisconsin will show 70 Bucks games this year, the first year the Bucks will be carried exclusively on cable.
