12/23 Jay Dee - Dinner Date edition
by Philthyanimal on Dec 23, 2009 12:49 AM PST
Email
PrintI was thinking of the first time I actually spent time with a BEdger IRL. I recall the moment began in a JD, and Prezofdeath was asking for recommendations on places to have dinner at. Prez ended up choosing my recommendation (Apizza Scholls) and asked me to join him....and the rest is history.
Speaking of history...if you could have a drink or go out to dinner with any person who would it be with? Why? How about anybody that is alive now? Which BEdger do you wanna get to know better that you haven't had the chance to get to know yet? Tell us about where you would go and what you would order. Any burning questions that you will ask them?
Deceased person you would dine with?
Alive person you would dine with?
BEdger you would dine with?

I would throw back a few with any of you right now
Seriously, I broke out the scotch again tonight..
Oh and I hope I wasn’t the only one who noticed that Dwight Jaynes had more than one drink in front of him during “Talking Ball”.

I can't usually
This is cask strength stuff (bought duty free in the Puerto Vallarta airport last year) so usually I have to dilute it. I was so numb tonight I just threw back a shot without doing so.
Only one though, had we lost it would have been at least five, and then I would have been passed out on the floor with visions of a happy Mark Cuban haunting me for days.

This was me at halftime of the Houston game
Think: “I NEED SEVERAL DRINKS” (look at prices remember that I’d have to take out a large loan to get drunk at a sport event)
Choose to buy 2 large orders of fries instead.

Robert Johnson!
We could ask him if it was all true! – Elgin
Travis Outlaw, the Funnel Cake of the Blazers
anyone alive: it’s between christopher walken or MF DOOM. i have a ton of questions i would like to ask both. Probably i would go with DOOM, cause there really isn’t much written about him and he seems like he would have a really interesting story
anyone dead: my uncle morgan. He died when i was a baby and from what i have heard me and him where a lot a like so i would like to meet him.
bedger i would dine with: whoever is older between SO and jscot(he’s old right?). I like to talk to old people, they have better stories.

I like the idea of having a drink with unknown relatives
Both my grandfathers were dead before I was born. I would have enjoyed meeting both of them, judging by the stories I’ve heard about them. – Elgin
Travis Outlaw, the Funnel Cake of the Blazers
I was thinking about what historical figure to get a drink with
and then a thought occurred to me. Why would any of the great, influential people want to have a drink with me? I’d probably bore the heck out of them or be smitten with hero worship.
I think it would be really difficult to have a conversation with someone like Einstein or Da Vinci (language barrier aside) because it would be so one sided. I’ve never met a celebrity so I really have no idea how I would treat someone famous.
You won.

It requires humility on the part of the famous person.

Dead – i cant seem to think of a good one
Living – I’d love to discuss race and equality with Morgan Freeman
Bedge – I’d have to say Amlmart11…Amlmart isnt around much anymore,but it was amazing how quickly he learned english just through posting here. I loved his translations of Rudy’s performances, and he even bought me a Rudy jersey from Spain. It’d be fun to have him order authentic Spanish Tapas dishes at Toro Bravo.

i would like to ask morgan freeman
why he was driving a mid 90’s maxima when he got into a car accident a few years ago, he seems like he would be a very engaging person

I would have much to learn from any of the Spanish BEdgers
That would be a fascinating dining experience. – Elgin
Travis Outlaw, the Funnel Cake of the Blazers
I know you mean one of the Spanish BEdgers girls, but I'll answer anyways...
For us, proud Spanish people, dinners (food in general) are very, very important. But the most important thing in the world is “fiesta”. Partying all night long (that’s the standard) with a Spaniard can be much more fascinating than just a dinner, I tell you.
On a different note, the cultural exchange in these blogs is amazing. I’m learning so much about the Americans and the American society that my whole perspective has changed 180º (or even more!).
i hope that means it changed in a good way.

Must be related to the High Schooler’s that get A’s but then C’s in college.
And the ones that get C’s turn around and get A’s in college.
However all the people I knew in high school that got A’s, also got A’s in college.
But I here about that grade reversal phenomenon all the time.

by Philthyanimal on Dec 23, 2009 2:00 AM PST up reply actions
I think that'd be pointless
Oden is the best chance at being GREAT, not a Wade-type… if he is indeed going to be a Wade type.
#52
I might do that also.
Roy has oodles more trade value than Oden now. You simply can’t ignore his injury history. If you could get a Wade type for him, you pretty much have to do it.
I would trade Oden for Wall and possibly Roy for Wall but not both.
#52
Yes, you can't ignore his injury history
But the point is to win titles, not to have the safest most likely pick for a good player.
A Wade type does not win titles without a dominant big— even though Shaq was at the end of hi career, their title was fluky in addition to being based around a great guard and dominant-still big.
Getting Wall, without having ANY good bigs, means nothing. So we’d be for-sure better than we’d be without Oden… who cares? That ain’t the point.
Titles are the point. Oden gives us the best shot at it, through his position and style of play. No guard does.
#52
I doubt anyone who can get Wall would do the trade anyways
For the same reasons we wouldn’t… Oden means more to us than to them, and samesies for their #1 pick.
#52
I love Roy but Wall is special. Way more explosive than Roy.
I feel very comfortable saying the team that gets the #1 pick would not trade it for Roy.
#52
They would be fools not to
The thing everyone fails to take into account is that the draft is a crap shoot……even sure-fire can’t miss locks sometimes have issues (microfractures, broken patellas so forth) . This is the very reason KP would never even consider trading Roy for the #1 straight up. Never..ever..ever. He knows what he has got with Roy…..the real deal…no guessing…no wishing..he has it…right here

whatever we can. young or in prime frontcourt depth maybe. draft picks. i dunno.
Anybody we won’t need in a year or two we should look to move.

I think Miller could get a better big than Blake
Unless someone is looking for just salary dump for Blake and Outlaw.

i think a salary dump would be more important than Miller.

I need to do some reasearch on Andre Miller
Didn’t the Sixers sign a big free agent who got injured for the whole season? How does Miller stay healthy? I think he somehow transfers his injuries to his teammates. He’s some sort of ninjutsu or using black magic on our players.

he exerts a ton of energy when he plays. maybe thats why he’s never hurt.

I don't know
some people just don’t get injured I guess. I’m fortunate enough to be one of those people. In 10+ years of competitive running I never once had an injury. I never even had to ice or take advil for swelling. I only spent time in the training room waiting for teammates to be done. It’s not like I did anything different from anyone else.
I’ve never broken anything ever. I’m just a healthy guy I suppose.

I used to run road races with as thin of sole as possible – never been injured either.
I always felt the ones who needed big thick soles didn’t strike the ground properly. But then running is completely different than basketball.
Romance me with that Roy rainbow shot which took flight from way beyond the arc and sailed so high that before it came back down to earth sealing the victory, it kissed the rafters and said "You're mine baby."

The amount of Thunder love is disgusting. I really hope that they get destroyed if they make the playoffs this year.
The way you get championships is to have Hall of Fame-caliber players on your team, and it’s up to Durant to become that.
AK1984.
Mortimer.
Norsktroll.
the media loves high volume scorers
Durant = George Gervin
Durant is a bit taller and rebounds more, but I’d say that’s the best comparison for him.
