Isiah Thomas is actively looking for a new job and met with Clippers' owner Donald Sterling about a front office position. The meeting was arranged by Mike Dunleavy.

Several NBA sources confirmed the February meeting to ESPN.com.

Well they can't really sink much lower can they?  A negative and a negative makes a positive right?  ???

What's the worst that could happen?  First team in the modern NBA era to contract?

After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class

Only the worst franchise in sports history would contemplate hiring the worst GM in professional sports history. Sure sounds like a match made in heaven.

The question is, do 2 wrongs make a right? The answer is no, but it'll be entertaining.

Amazing.  The Clips have been running in place since the early 80's.  The team had a nice nucleus a few times along the way but they always self destruct, much of the time with help from the GM.  Isiah will fit right in.

You know where Isaih Thomas would be good? as a college head coach as some public university that has a vague morality.

Wow, Isiah must have some serious stuff on some people in the league, that's the only explanation I can think of.

The thing is, if someone is dumb enough to interview him for a job, he's going to get the job almost every time because he's such a great bs'er.  I bet he's an outstanding interview.
