"Great Sprits Have Always Encountered Violent Opposition from Mediocre Minds" SPOTLIGHT.. The one, the only, JEFF SABIN.



Introducing the top villain of PCTI:

1. Nickname: Sabedog, Sabedizzle, Sabes, Bringer of the Midrange, Peyton Manning, Steve Kerr, and my favorite-"PCTI's Most Physically Imposing 35 year old."

2. Height/Weight: 6'2" 189lbs. 10.1% body fat, 33 inch vertical leap, 4.9 40, 255lb Bench Press, 300lb Deadlift, 10.4 second shuttle run with a weightest vest.

3. Employer: Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas. I am a banker and help lend money to banks. Yes, I like money and yes, I like to talk about money. #probablybadmanners.

4. College: Texas A&M Commerce. 2000 Academic All Conference and Dean's List for 8 consectutive semesters. Averaged 7.2ppg Sr. Year in the D2 Lone Star Conference. 2010 MBA from University of Texas at Dallas. Magna Cum Laude.

5. Favorite Sports Team: 1987 and 2011 NBA Champion Dallas Mavericks, 1991 UNLV Running Rebels, 1984 and 1986 Boston Celtics, 1985 and 87 LA Lakers, 2005 Phoenix Suns, and 1990 Loyola Maramount with Hank Geathers and Bo Kimble. Also nominated, the 1994 North Mesquite Stallions High School Hoops Team.

6. NBA Comparison: Fat Lever. I love the guys game. He had a shot, some handle, could board, and defended his position well. Much like Lever, I played the majority of my basketball career in relative obscurity.

7. Favorite Teammate: Danny Krow. Much like Wilson, dude just finds a way for me to score. I also love the Bruise, he is like my big, little brother. I have a feeling I will love Beas and Smo this year too. Once I play with Donley, this could change as he is one of my favorites. BC is up there too.

8. Biggest PCTI Enemy: Since Pitto and I will be best friends this year, I'm going to focus my efforts on Joe Thompson. I like Joe alot, but we really would prefer kicking each others ass when we matchup. I respect his bulldogedness, and he respects mine. We have a love-hate relationship, and he will be seeing a lot of me in PCTI3. Much love and much hate for this guy.

9. Favorite PCTI Moment: Game 4 cramp game was an iconic moment. Thursday night videos sessions when Ben Wilson asked me why I didn't make that shot, Saturday evening dinner and recap, anytime game 7 concludes, Bruise's pre-game dunk, and Danny being mad anytime women are in the gym.

10. Biggest Question Mark on Your Team: Whether or not our team will physically impose our will on Breaking Bad by a lot or just a little. We are much more bulldogged than them, but I hope they bring a fight to the table. My hope is that they don't bring a knife to a gunfight.

11. Bold Prediction: Bruise and Ben don't fall down on the new court. Breaking Bad runs it's offense through Hops. Wes knocks down five 3's in one game and we never hear from him again. McKinney is the new most physically imposing player in PCTI. And of course, DK gets to the line.

12. Not So Bold Prediction: Smo wins defensive player of the year, Breaking Bad has chemistry problems for much of the weekend, Legs Feed the Wolf enjoy playing together, B-EZ chips a tooth and plays through it, Pitto and I have a cordial conversation.

Editor's Reaction:

1. Brute Strength, The Villain, The Lionheart, The Gladiator all come to mind as well.

2. If any of you thought he was joking about any of this, jokes on you.

3. Let's all give it up to PCTI's official sponsor, Federal Home Loan Bank. We all owe that company a big thanks.

4. What were your college accolades Stephens? Combine you, B-EZ, Hops, and Little Brent and maybe you could come close to accomplishing what The Lionheart did.

5. Ask Sabin who the best player he ever played against was (The answer is Greg Ostertag).

6. I was thinking Dennis Rodman or Charles Oakley.

7. Yet another guy that appreciates the perfect chest pass I throw that sets people up for a 35ft. 3 ball.

8. I hope we get round 2 between these bulldogs in PCTI3.

9. I guess I'm going to have to get over the women being there seeing as how we might be the next most entertaining hoops event now that the NBA is done.

10. Sabin is 100% responsible for the 30 different fights that are going to take place this year. I call first punch on Dawson.

11. The team names "Breaking Bad" and "Legs Feed the Kitten" have me laughing uncontrollably everytime I hear them. Both are possibly making a run at the greatest team name of all time, Team 2.

12. I hope I'm not there to witness the awkward conversation between Sabin and Pitto. I've never seen two people with such a mature, non-volatile hatred for each other.
