If only, mill. But I think I'm about 10,000 words short of the vaunted doclinkin cup.

This is true. Perhaps the "dlts20 Cup"? Not quite as sought after but an award nonetheless.

Pretty sure he just celebrated his 21st BD.

edit to add - hey Fisher, it'd be fun to get together with you b4 a game as well (as BobbyD
and the usual suspects, proof, Donk, LR).


I took about a month hiatus from attending games but started my streak again last night. I'm up for a pre game happy hour (probably do us all some good, too).

The Denver game might be a good one since it's a Friday and an 8PM start.

I'm going to have to follow up with my ticket rep on the seat upgrade deal. They always shaft me on those things (last year my rep said I was on the "list" to participate in one of the shooting contest (Papa Johns, Southwest Airlines etc.), but I've yet to receive my Gatorade call up. I need to follow up on that, too).

watched the video of the game last night

My wife and daughter were visible briefly before one of Shaq's first half
FTs.

During the Legal Seafood trivia question answer, they zero'd in on me
and my daughter for about 10 or so. I looked like a phat phk wearing a
Gil home jersey, my daughter in a road AJ jersey.

My older daughter was just in the edge of the screen when Blatche
left the court in the 4th.

I can try to do a meetup before the DEN game.

big aristotle delivered on the post-game interview:

"what do you think of the young fellow Javale McGee?"
"he reminds me a lot of me when i was a rookie. young. good looking. light skinned. skinny."

What are you talking about? I ain't even wrong twice in one calendar year. Sheeeeit.

What's funny is I half-dread when people keep bumping these old threads thinking I'm sure I must have gotten something wrong and looked like an ass, but the re-read either vindicates me or I didn't comment. I must be burying my mistakes pretty well.

Even Caron's struggle at 2-guard made me look good. It's almost like I know something about the game.

Can I get the SD20 trophy for braggin' on myself? My thighs are looking massively muscled right now.

Heh, I wasn't really referencing you being wrong. Just you being unconditionally, unflappably optimistic.

Nothing wrong with that...Heck, I wish I was half as optimistic as some on this board. I'm just naturally pessimistic. Probably has something to do with me being a Wizards fan and all.

:D
