    I only post this because there was the discussion about whether or not KP should entertain a trade for Emeka, all I can say is, "damn! What a scrub."

    That's pretty bad! It's one thing to have the media or the fans against you, but if your teammates don't have your back, you are done!

    Don't worry HCP, he only registered here for the prediction game, hopefully he will follow his own sig and stop posting shortly.

    I'd love it if we could get Okafor- i'd offer Joel and Rudy. This would take care of the front court for the next few years.

    He's only missed a significant number of games in one season. He played every regular season game the last two years, averages 34 minutes/game for his career.

    Jesus dies and goes up to Heaven. The first thing he does is look for his father, as he has never met the man before and is curious as to what he looks like, and whether or not Jesus looks like his mother or father, etc. He looks high and low but cannot find him.

    He asks St. Peter "Where is my father?" But St. Peter says he doesn't know.

    He asks the archangel Gabriel "Where is my father?" But Gabriel doesn't know.

    He asks John the Baptist "Where is my father?" But John does not know. So he wanders Heaven, impatiently searching.

    Suddenly he sees out of the mist an old man coming toward him. The man is very old, with white hair, stooped over a little. "Stop!" Jesus yells. "Who are you?"

    "Oh, please help me, I am an old man in search of my son." Jesus is very curious. Could this be his father? "Tell me of your son, old man."

    "Oh, you would know him if you saw him. Holes in his hand where the nails used to be, he was nailed to a cross, you know..."

    "Father!!!!!" Screams Jesus.

    "Pinocchio!!!!!!!" yells the old man.

    :drumroll:

    Seriously though, you can't lose something you didn't have in the first place. If they had any respect for him, they wouldn't think he was loafing.

    I find that extremely offensive and you can consider me offended. How dare you suggest we don't have a sense of humor. How dare you sir!!!

    Oh man. That is hilarious. I was on vodka when I typed that. I haven't a clue as to what it means.

    HCP! I got your highest honor--your vaunted 3 question mark-answer! This is only the second time you've given me that. In fact, a few days ago, I told you, "And don't give me your 3 question mark answer!" I actually wanted it. I gave up on ever getting one again.

    Every time I get your ??? I whittle another notch in my bedpost! No jumping on the bed anymore. ¡Hombre! ¡Su esposa está en mi sofá!
