You guys are all in time out. Knock this **** off. Politics should be like smoking where there are designated areas for it and you are looked at like scum if you partake.

How much did the fans pay for the Andrew Nicholson basketball camp. Shows what lenghths Dwight will go to to protect the image he has of himself. I don't think anything makes you look like an a hole quicker than getting full of yourself.

I agree that this is not the best place to discuss this stuff. However, you will notice that the post I just made on the gay rights topic that has spread here is the first I have made in some time. That is due to the fact that this is an Orlando Magic forum and there has been absolutely no news regarding the Magic since Vaughn was hired. We have nothing to talk about. In that situation you have to expect that non-Magic and even non-sports related news will spill over to fill the discussion void. As soon as rumors heat up again or the preseason kicks off, we will all get back on track. It is just a down time in the year for Magic basketball.

Catching up with Anthony "No Neck" Johnson.

He was a very good teammate when he was with us & I will NEVER forget when he posterized Theo Ratliff in the playoffs.

Good luck in coaching!!!

Let's get this thread back on topic. So, we might be signing Kyle O'Quinn to a three year deal? I wonder how much he will be getting?

I think it will be a normal rookie contract. The true question will be how much of it is guaranteed.

Yeah, if it's three years, I would guess something along the lines of near-minimum salary, fully guaranteed year one, partially guaranteed year two, fully un-guaranteed year three.

Probably is a better actor.

You could tell for awhile that JJ was fed up with the D12 saga.
