    A bag of stale Doritos and a half a can of flat Mountain Dew.

    Wait, how stale are the Doritos? Like left open for a week stale? Or have been in the package, but just slightly less crunchy stale?

    I guess we could part with the unopened bag, but I won't budge on the can of Mountain Dew.

    I'd throw in the Dew withthe opened bag, but agreed, pairing the Dew with the unopened bag seems like too much.

    Yi will never play in this marketspace. Remember when he was drafted, and the Chinese government didn't want him playing there?

    But on the bright side of things....maybe...just maybe, if we got him here, we might get a lot of Chinese fans voting for other Blazers to make the all star team. :devilwink:

    That's an excellent idea. Maybe we should make sure to always have some sort of Chinese scrub on the bench to pump up the team's all star voting...

    Pendergraph will be a better pro than Yi.

    Sorry to burst your bubble, Eric.

    But Yi is 7 feet tall and plays like a small forward ... He's gonna be the next Dirk!! (minus the clutch shooting and rebounding)
