Around SBN: Chan Sung Jung Wins Thriller Over Dustin Poirier

Getting the giggles

Have you ever played with an anagram creator?  (One is here.

I entered "Portland Trail Blazers" and it gave me all sorts of interesting things.  When you stroll through Saturday Market look for strange things because "Bazaar trend : troll lips".  Then again, don't listen to your dog because "Labrador rants tell zip".   And don't listen to your bird either because "Banal parrots trill zed."  

But I really got the giggles when I discovered that Blazers Edge is nothing but Bald Geezers!

HEY!
We are all manly men here!  Manly, virile, virile and manly, extra-super-special men with youthful complexions and hair flowing in wavy locks wondrous to behold!  A veritable smorgasbord of manliness and virility this is!  Really!

I beg to differ...
I ain't bald.

don't forget
I'm 19. AND not balding. I know that for myself, I'm not a know-it-all. I am still learning nba ball. I'm learning how to take blazers games for what it is. Its much more than the winning/losing and the score. Its about chemistry within.
Go Blazers!

I hope you don't think I was calling anyone here a bald geezer (even the ones who are) - it's what the anagram creator did with "blazers edge".

FWIW, it also considers Kevin Pritchard to be a Hick Tavern Drip or maybe a Darn Thick Viper.  Mike Rice is an Ickier Me and Nate McMillan a Camel Lint Man .

Have you done the players yet?

Brandon a Celtic?
Brandon Roy = Ran by Rondo.

Tell me that isn't weird.

I've done some
but it can't do much with Ime Udoka or Jarrett Jack...  

OTOH, there is a Blazer Joy Pill and someone is on an Amoral Email Jag. Another, while driving down the lane shouts out Tremble Wastrel! and a good shot blocker will administer Our Vital Swat.  Poor Dan D. is nothing but a Candid Auk

Sergio's name generates lots of things (in English) with great phrases like "queer orzo" and "gorier squid" but most were like fortune cookies.  My favorite is "Quiz Rogers or die!"

The story told solely in anagrams:

Ingrate bleats, narrates bilge. Barrage silent, tangibles rare.

(Wish I could figure out a way to work in "lesbian garter.")

by jorga on Mar 7, 2007 7:15 PM PST reply actions  

I want to rearrange that
Ingrate bleats, narrates bilge; tangibles rare, barrage silent.

by jorga on Mar 7, 2007 7:17 PM PST up reply actions  

You tack a question mark
onto the end of 'lesbian garter' and it will work.

Ingrate bleats, narrates bilge.  Tangibles rare, lesbian garter?  Barrage silent.

Are you suggesting that coconuts migrate??
