Bad brake for Murphy

Wait that title is kinda wrong if you know what I mean. It happened again.

Pacers C Troy Murphy left in the first quarter after being hit in the face by a Lakers player while trying to grab a defensive rebound. Murphy broke his nose and did not return.

Was quoted from cbs sportsline. http://cbs.sportsline.com/nba/gamecenter/recap/NBA_20070202_LAL@IND

Can we get rid of the limit for these posts. Or can we at least make it fewer characters needed.

Reason for character limit

We have this in place so people write something of substance. Diaries aren't meant to be like a short message board post. They're a space for community members to post their detailed thoughts and analysis.

It works really well on Athletics Nation as I'm sure some of the crossover GSoM and AN audience can attest.

poor guy

that nose is gunna be freakin' huge(er) now.

i really hope he's able to play in our game against the pacers on monday. it would be incredibly anticlimactic for the first meeting against DUNMURPHY EAST to be without the Murph.
i'm looking forward to (dreading, no, looking forward to, no, dreading, no, looking forward to) that game i tell you what.
