Couldn't you come up with another story. I guess you talking about Korvers underwear will be stimulating to some readers. Jimmy's Sneakers will be chief among them.
Jimmy's Boyfriend | 12:17 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Tim did you really have to bring up Korvers brief's?How's a guy supposed to hang on to Jimmy with you talking about things like that.
Is Jimmy's sneakers really.. | 12:26 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
...Tim Buckley?? Jimmy is always on the posts, and somehow always gets his through. Now this talk from Tim about Korvers briefs, sounds like Jimmy to me.

Jimmy will let Korver borrow some of his briefs. It would be a real thrill to do such.
Jim Buckley | 12:44 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
I liked what the player from Seattle had to say about the Jazz. I agree that Korver can be the missing piece, but only if they play defense.
Timmy's Sneakers | 12:53 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Jimmy, I mean Timmy thinks that when Korver is hot that no one can stop him. Timmy likes to watch Korver light it up from long range.
amgolfer | 12:57 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Korver you're the man. I am so thrilled you are in Utah. I have followed you since your Creighton days brother. I sincerely hope the Jazz keep you long-term; you deserve a sweet contract. One question for the panel--how long do we have Korver signed for????
Washer&Dryer | 1:12 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Korver
I've got a washer and dryer.
You can borrow it anytime. Just sign a basketball for me and we'll call it even.
Ute Fan | 1:28 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
This article reminds me of the good ole acronym given by Ute fans for BYU...Bring Your Underwear. :)
dyc | 6:24 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Okay, Jimmy Sneakers and Ute Fan really. . . . Scare Me! :-) I'm guessing Korver can afford to send someone to the store to buy some underwear for him. It must have been a slow sports day.
Inappropriate | 6:33 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
What person in their right mind would want an article written about them concerning their underwear, and not only that, but dirty. That is totally embarrassing and the writer should be ashamed of himself. No, I don't need to lighten up. How would any of you like to have an article written like this about you?

Get some class with your writing please.
Take a trip to the store | 6:44 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
What are there no men's clothes stores in Utah? Buy some new clothes. Dumb way to talk about the pending All-star break.
Clark | 6:52 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
We have Korver for this season and then two more afterwards at about 5 mil a season.
Bring Your Underwear? | 6:47 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Nice comment Ute Fan. Did you and a bunch of first graders get together and come up with that one? Way to put that U of U education to work.
Jimmy Keeler | 7:39 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Jimmy thinks that some of you know who I really am. It's kind of like a debriefing.
Jimmy's Buckleys | 7:36 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Thanks for the great reads Timmy. I like it.
tiny tim | 7:38 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Loves J.B. and Korver.
Clarky boy | 7:39 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Tim this is better than stringing tennis raquets.
Jimmy's Tonsils | 7:40 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Tim this is crazy man, writing about a mans underpants.
Jimmy's Buffet | 7:43 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Hey its all you can eat with Tim Buckley reporting. Go Korver! Go Jazz! Go Sinan!
Jimmy's Stinkers | 7:51 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Dear Jimmy,

Please take all of these posts as constructive criticism. While we all appreciate your Jazzfanedness, the whole "Jimmy thinks" thing is just tiring. We're annoyed. Please refrain from this in the future, and we can all be Jazz fan friends once again!

Sincerely,

All Jazz post readers
Jimmy's Tweakers | 7:53 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
This is crazy man. I hope the jazz win
Jimmy's Wiskers. | 7:54 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Jimmy loves the Jazz and Korver.
Pleased | 7:52 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
I'm glad people like Memo feel the same as I do. Travel, travel all the time and we would think he wants to take a trip during All-Star break? That being said I'll bet he won't even waste some of his time watching the fiasco, I know I won't. What a out-lived piece of crap the whole All-Star scene is.
Jimmy's Boyfriend | 7:57 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Jimmy's Boyfriend thinks... just kidding; I know how to talk in the 1st person. My mom used to tell me "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." I'd like to change that to apply to this article. "If you don't have anything meaningful to write, don't write anything at all." I think anyone reading this with an IQ above 3 would know that ummm... Kyle Korver makes a little over minimum wage. He lives in a hotel. My guess, is that he can afford to buy new panties if he needs them. I hope DesNews places some accountability on its writers for insanely stupid and immature articles that they spew out to the general public.
Tomorrow's column: "Matt Harpring eats too much Totino's Pizza and caramel popcorn balls. Gets nasty gas and punishes team on the bus."
Jimmy's Toe Jam | 8:07 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Is there a way we can incorporate a player's hygene into LHM's metric used to measure a player's performance. Here's how it could work... Add up a players points, Free throw attempts, deflections, shots that almost went in but didn't, rebounds, fouls, whines to the ref. Then subtract any minute that Jason Hart plays, your age, zip code. Then divide all that by your minutes played. Subtract that total by your hygene score (on a scale of 1 to 10).
I really think that might help indicate who performs well in each game.
carter | 8:16 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
do you people seriously think that korver cares or is gonna get any flack for a story on his drawers? no....chill out y'all its just good fun
Dear Tim: | 8:21 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Maybe the next "clever" story angle about the Utah Jazz could be the lovefest on these boards with some dude named "Jimmy's sneakers."

IMO, it would be better than the BVD angle from today.

Not funny, or clever, sorry. Let the college papers and students in training go that route.

Just write me a sports story.

Thanks for listening.
Jimmy Bashing?? | 8:39 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Why are we bashing on Jimmy Sneakers today? Are you a Sloan-Hater that is having a hard time coming up with bad things to say about Jerry? I think Jimmy Sneakers is welcome to write whatever comments he feels like and seeing that he has critics now just shows how big he has become in the DN comment world. He is not negative and simply shares his opinion. If you don't care for his comments, please skip them. Keep up the good work Jimmy Sneakers! Also...three cheers for Sinan! AND GO JAZZ!!!
Jimmy's Drawers | 8:48 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Jimmy thinks that Korver shouyld keep his pants clean. Then he will shoot even better.
Hollywood | 9:01 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Why is Korver so popular?
Because chicks dig the long ball.
Re: Jimmy Bashing?? | 9:10 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
AKA jimmy's sneakers. we know it's you defending yourself and you sound so much more inteligent in the first person. Keep it up.
Jimmy sneakers stink | 10:02 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Despite Korvers apparent lack of knowledge that he could go to Target and buy a 6-pack of briefs for $7.95 I am glad he is here.........dirty underpants and all. Kyle should and probably will have a long career in Utah as long as he performs like he is now. Now tell me, what was the guys name that we traded to get Korver???????????
Soupe | 10:03 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Looks like Jimmy's sneakers are juar as popular as Korvor's briefs in this discussion room.
Pre-emptive Jimmy | 10:11 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
What's with the pre-emptive Jimmy comments? He hasn't even posted yet! Me thinks you all have a love affair with Jimmy with a deep desire to know about his underwear also. GO JAZZ!!!
Jimmy's Sneakers | 10:06 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Jimmy says keep bringing the criticism but Jimmy says Korver's briefs whether relavant or not have brought good fortune to the Jazz. Jimmy thinks he may have been the missing link last year.
Korver | 10:07 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Kyle you can borrow my washer and dryer too,,, if you marry me :)
force | 10:10 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
YOU'RE ALL JUST A BUNCH OF JEALOUS 'JIMMY WANBEES'. WHO CARES IF HE POSTS IN THE THIRD PERSON....I CERTAINLY DON'T....I KNOW ONE THING FOR CERTAIN AND I'VE SAID IT BEFORE, JIMMY KNOWS MORE BASKETBALL AND WRITES MORE INSIGHTFUL, WELL THOUGHT OUT POSTS THAN 3/4 OF THE IDIOTS ON THIS PAGE....IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE FACT THAT HE POSTS IN THE THIRD PERSON, THAN DON'T READ THEM, JUST SKIP BY....NO NEED TO BAG ON A GUY THAT SEEMS TO BE NOT ONLY A DIEHARD JAZZ FAN, BUT A FAIRLY KNOWLEDGEABLE NBA FAN AS WELL.....GET A LIFE...
Maybe... | 10:10 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Maybe Jimmy Sneakers didnt even have a comment here yet, there is no ones name that is actually Jimmy Sneakers. If thats the case then i actually feel bad for poor 'ole Jimmy, at least today. He didn't say anything and is still getting bashed. HA. P.S, too bad, I would have loved to watch Korver in the three-point shootout.
Jimmy's Squeelers | 10:14 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Jimmy thinks everyone is jelous of him. I like Korvy and Matty. Go Jazz!
dee | 10:21 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
with your bucks i would buy -new- , ha!
Go Utes | 10:24 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Geez man go online, order new spankies. They can be there overnight in a discrete package, no one will no your secret shame. You could call Nordstrom and get a personal shopper to do it for your but please please stop flipping your drawers man -it is so unsexy.
Years ago I saw Kay Malone in front of me at the Costco checkout. She was buying several large boxes of laundry soap and a fax machine. The woman behind me made the comment that she has to buy so much at once because of having to wash Karl's Jazz uniform and exercise clothes -I nearly fell on the floor laughing. I bet cute old Kyle could get many girls to wash his tightie whities -maybe even me ha ha. What a funny story.
Jimmy's empty wallet | 10:29 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
I really need some dollars so I can purchase a burger or two. Korver is money downtown range???!!!
philly | 10:34 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
kudos to Jimmy's boyfriend and Jimmy's toe jam for actually making me laugh out loud.

To the real Jimmy, I'm not a hater; post all you want, I just want to know, how do you have time to post on so many articles.

Korver deserves the credit, but have we stopped to think that much of the success might be due to the absence of Giricek? One player's issues can cause a lot of problems.
clem | 10:49 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
dont change your shorts, it might change your game
I like Jimmy | 10:53 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
Even though Jimmy talks about himself in the third person I like him. In fact I like him alot more than most of the blow-hards who write in these posts.

I agree with the masses on this article though, it was more like something that my wife would watch on Insider or ET. It should have been published in the "Entertainment" section.
Jimmy's Alter Ego | 11:24 a.m. Feb. 13, 2008
JAE thinks that with a $4.5M annual salary, Kyle can afford to have someone run to Target and buy the dude some boxers - or even have some of the Korver fans stitch some from scratch for him. Jimmy's AE thinks this must be a sssslllllllooooowwww news day in Salt Lake.

The best dressed among us will soon be wearing Korver's drawers and Jimmy's sneakers.

END of SEASON PREDICTION:

Jazz 53-29

Destroying The Economy | 12:43 p.m. Feb. 13, 2008
TIM! You need to get the advertising department to work! This article is costing the DesNews 100's of dollars of advertising revenue. Also, you're depressing the local economy. You know all the wannabee's are going to think "If Korver wears dirty underwear and is in the NBA, if I wear dirty underwear, I can be in the NBA too!" Sales of laundry detergent will drop drastically. However, the lack of washing may help the annual drought so on 2nd thought, I guess this article is helping the environment. At least the liberals will be happy.
