Jon Cohen of Palo Alto writes that he once jotted down some of Bill King's remarks so he could have them verbatim. Two of his favorites: ``Once again, in this stadium, as in all of life, idle minds succumb to the wave.'' ``Instead of a throw to the plate, the best Canseco could do was a pitiful, off-line, looping blooper.'' That's the magic of the man. People remember phrases from decades past. We've received loads of quotes. Can't confirm them all. But they sure do sound like things Bill would say, don't they? ``Jascha Heifetz never played a violin with more dexterity than Kenny Stabler is playing the Minnesota Vikings this afternoon in the Rose Bowl.'' -- Mark Cursi, Gilroy ``Grasshopper dribble-drives into the lane! Kicks out to Sarge on the wing. Sarge swings it to C.J. Jumper from the top of the key. TWO!'' -- Richard Gin, Foster City ``The epitome of mediocrity!'' -- Rob Halstrom, Milpitas ``The official will be forever ensconced in the annals of mediocrity.'' -- Russ Smith, Fremont ``The Spurs are on the heels of the Warriors.'' -- John Burr, Los Altos
In the new Maxim they asked "Will the Spurs repeat? And if not, who's gonna take the title from them?" Davis replied "We are! The Warriors. I'd be a fool to say we won't"

Do people even do the wave anymore at ballparks? Hmmmm, that reminds me of an interesting "Girls Gone Wild" event I'd like to see done. Can anyone guess what I'm thinking of?
