    I did that, too! I always ended up seeing my mom, though. Hmmm...

    I like that one, too. Mutombo's one of my favorite players, especially because of the way he goes back to Africa to help the kids and he's everyone's hero. He's just a good guy, all around.

    I kind of felt bad, knowing he was poor and all as a child and didn't expierience the feeling of having money and toys as a child. Yet it still was nice that him and his siblings enjoyed the stories/advice from his father.

    Hahaha, what a nerd.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Karl Malone, L.A. Lakers:
    "My health."</div>

    Can Karl Malone get any more retarded? This one was by far the stupidest.
