Currently it’s Caruso or Connaughton.
I’d give anything to hear about Pats vert or opportunity to play in the majors right now.

Caruso ain't more athletic than Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk.

Who y’all got?

 

[darthska]

Who y’all got?

Dray and it's not close.

Klay is too verbally bland. He provides nothing to the convo. He's like a cat who knows he's not here to entertain you so deal with it.

Steph is all company lines, 'Team came together' and 'Tough test but we passed so we'll hope for the same tomorrow.'

Kerr is too safe. Similar to Steph, but w/ a hint of wit & sarcasm. Thinks he's a riot, though.

And honestly, it's ALOTTA times I rely can't understand Giannis.

And Dray is entirely more ignorant than all of them combined.

You gotta scroll. There’s a small arrow in the middle of the picture length-wise on the right that allows you to click through and see other pics (in this case other Zoom calls)

HOLY ****!

Scratch Dray. Action Jackson or Matt Barnes.

Or James Har_en, but for slanderous purposes.

Why on EARTH is Kiwi an option? Buddy as interesting as New Balance.

Went to Costco and I grabbed another Kobe Magazine, I regret not copping the other ones when they had them (LA Times, TIME, etc.)

I waited an hour in line to get inside the store with my GF, and the line looked like the ones you see in those apocalyptic movies. They had three separates lines and they had wooden pallets in between to keep the line organized (It was in a loop).

Anyways, it was windy and dusty AF, and my GF let out a sneeze. This one dude in front of us got startled and looked like he just saw a Ghost lol. Also, we had Masks and gloves on.

 

[QU!K]

Does Manu Ginobili count as white? or do they have to be American?

 

[storm2006]

Does Manu Ginobili count as white? or do they have to be American?

Based on the responses, I am assuming American

Got waitlisted for UMD out of HS. Still wanted to go to a big school. Had some friends going to WVU so decided to go as well. It was fun, and I enjoyed visiting, but not somewhere I really would've wanted to spend 4 years at.

Give us some more WVU Stories?

SLaton ad Pat White were there when you were there?

 

[frshstunna]

Don’t sleep on ATL legend Matt Harpring either

 

[pmatic]

Birdman was pretty athletic.

 

[dmbrhs]

Rex Chapman was pretty athletic. Had a little wiggle to him in addition to having bounce.



I also stand by my position that Steve Nash is a great athlete because of his next-level hand-eye coordination.

Ii remember in his book, Bill Simmons put Chapman on his all-time "White Guys Who Played Like Black Guys" team lol

 

[B Sox]

Joe and Alex were the only dudes I hooped with. Basketball games were pretty fun because the team was just starting to get good, but it sucked that the student section was all in the upper deck.

Slaton and Pat White were both freshmen as well (05-06). Had a psychology class with Slaton. Don't really remember much else. I was at the forefront of wanting Pat White to be the starting QB when he was in a battle for the job with a more traditional QB. Still give my friends **** for them saying the white dude should've had the job. Tailgating and football games were fun as hell.

Lots of house parties, and they have a solid bar scene. Had a good time.

Campus is set up really odd. Freshmen dorms aren't even in walking distance to the rest of the campus where all the classes are. They have this monorail thing that you have to take in order to get down there.

Lots of Jersey kids (same as UMD), Pittsburgh area kids, Maryland, and then West Virginians. The West Virginia folks were cool, but I just couldn't really relate to them at all.

I forgot he added Chapman later in a column and was upset he didn't put him in the book.
