You have to go about 5 mi North on Eagle Rd, and THEN you have to turn right on State St (not to be confused with Boise's State St, which is ID 44) to get into downtown Eagle.

Much faster to take Power Line Rd (which turns into Victory), due to the ridiculous traffic at the Meridian exit during most hours of the day (road way too narrow) 50: I-84 East to Eagle is ridiculous.

Robert Swift = Shawn Bradley Seriously when I saw his picture I thought they'd drafted Conan O'Brian's younger brother. That Swift draft pick still boggles my mind. 7 foot white guys never work out.

Poor draft choices, poor head-coach selections, inability to fix roster holes (Rick "Pokey" Brunson anyone?) - Weiss was working with one hand tied behind his back. The fact that the star players were lobbying for Bobby Nice Guy should have been the first clue - ever heard players say what great guys Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, Gregg Popovich, Jerry Sloane, Larry Brown are?
