Ack!!!!!!

I cannot believe the blasphemy about Mr. Jordan in this post and others.

What are you people thinking!

He is a hero to middle aged men everywhere!

Last time when he came back they said he was past his prime and couldn't get it done anymore. Ha! He left them with egg all over their faces.

I am pulling for him to do it again.

4,000 season tickets were sold since his announcement here. He stands to make a huge dunk on some money. He will have to sell his 10% of the team to make even more money on that deal as well as a cool million for playing and then comes the endorsements.... I suspect he will play this year than leave town shortly after that. Cutting his ties here completely. Not a bad investment on his part I think his new name will be ground Jordan...no more jumping from the free throw line to dunk. We will see. I still like him and I dont know why...

Oh ! I'm not wishing for his demise, it's just his indecision to retire or play! And I agree that he would make an EXCELLENT coach for future generations! again! *Gasp!* I forgot for a moment to whom I was speaking. Sorry oh Enlightened One! Please forgive my impertinent s!

Well, I for one won't forgive her so easily ! Sharp-tongued women who maliciously and malevolently meddle with the only sacred thing still left for us middle-aged guys -sports - are far, far worse than even the plague ! And "that woman" has not only done that, she has gone so far as to speak disrespectfully of the highest-ranking immortal sports god there is: utter blasphemy and heresy ! Oh, it hurts so much, I feel like crying:



Please, dearest Dio, accept my invitation to some "serious" male-bonding: "united we stand, alone we fall !" - that is for sure the only thing that might be able to save us from the ones like her !

(btw, Rikard, IMO the best news source on the NBA is the following: here)

So long !

R³ aka "The Ramonster"(thanks Sir Tainly) - proud to be the official spokesman for the most noble Lady Bilqis, Desert Rose of Ironworks - equally proud to be Moiraine's "permanent advocate" !

Btw, the cow is queuing in the slaughterhouse right now !

'That woman'?!? *crosses arms and taps foot impatiently*
BIG for that! You just wait! I'll get you for that one later, my dear!

P.S. - Fix your marquee, sweetie. You forgot the last >.

I agree
