It's funny though because I actually completely forgot about the punishment for losing the competition. At some point I forgot there even was a competition.

Pressed by his fanboys, who want to emulate his sculptural coiffures, Lin admitted that he used a betony poultice to keep the assortment of hair styles in place.

The Warriors found the right theriaca to deal with the dangerous venom of the Thunder's star duo.
Meanwhile...

Damn! How did I miss this. This thread would have been gold in the Phx forum. I love watching this and I was recently wondering when it was.

Are we doing a Spelling Bee draft again this year? If so, the Bee is June 1st at 8:30 on ESPN.
I have mixed feelings. On one hand, it was hilarious and fun. Would be a cool summer tradition for the board. On the other hand the Spelling Bee founder, Flip Murray has disappeared. He has not logged on since January. If anyone has a clue to his whereabouts, find him and get him to a computer.
Should we proceed, even without Flip?

I'm leaving for some work on the 31st until the 10th and will have very limited tv/internet access. I'd love to join back in to defend my title as Spelling Bee Champ.
Y'all are lucky

I still think there is some kind of connection between Flip Murrays disappearance and our season falling apart.

Flip is one of the few core posters on this board that I have no way of contacting outside of a PM. Many of you, I know your real names, thru our talks over the years, or e-mail addresses, or I follow you on twitter etc, or I have seen you posting on other sites. But Flip, I have nothing.

I cut off cable for the summer, so will have to figure out ESPN access, but I'm in.
