        Bill maybe get more playing time with this news..

        the Chesire Jets' deal with Ron Artest might be falling thru...
        Artest was supposed to fly to England and have face-to-face negotiations but he cancelled and gave no reason..
        Then some insurance issues arose..


        Oddly this article shows a weird side of Artest -- that his main goal right now is to advance his TV career even if it means doing a soap opera or going on TV in his underwear.....has he been watching too much TV about totally brainless & talentless people like "Keeping up with the Kardashians"

          from the staff at the Jets we have the team to do it this year.???

              U of I's Bill Cole has done OK his first four professional games...

              In his first game he had 19 pts/7 rebs...but he's been pretty consistently getting double figures...

              The last two games..
              - an 83-78 loss to Lilverpool - Bill had 11 pts, 9 rebs, 3 blocks, 2 steals
              - another loss 80-59 to Leicester - Bill had 11 pts, 3 rebs

              after 4 games he's averaging 14 ppg, 6.3 rpg, 53% shooting pct, 2 blks, 1.3 steals - among the team leaders in every stat..
              His 2 blocks per game leads the entire BBL (top British pro league)

                        Bill has been back in Peoria working for Stryker for several weeks. I think he reports to our own Danny Adams?

                          Can't believe he isn't working for O'Brien Steel. Stryker must pay real well.
