Mavs fans make me laugh

by CMoney on Jul 3, 2008 1:49 PM CDT

So I wandered over to Mavs Moneyball to see what they were talking about and I found this. We're not even close to locking up Maggette, and they're starting to freak out. I had a good laugh after reading this...

Baron Davis signs with the Clippers...
WOW…

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3470016

One plus is that it all but guarantees Corey Maggette will not get more than the MLE… They’ve got to renounce his sign and trade rights to make this deal work, so he’s out there for 5.5 million or whatever…

So, what this means is that we can no longer do a S&T for Maggette... no one can. So with everyone out there targeting Corey with their MLE, do the Mavs have what it takes to seperate themselves from the likes of Boston, Orlando, or even Phoenix?

I believe so, and it's because of one of the most outspoken and player-friendly owners in the league. Time to step up Mark... the money is even out there for him, but what are the Mavericks organization going to offer him that other teams wont?

[Note by Toddy, 07/01/08 9:55 PM MDT ] Dont worry, it just got worse... Spurs are reported as being the front runners for Maggette...

@#$%@$%@^$@!#$!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn

Spurs are the Front runners....

Thats Typical

The Spurs get Maggette….They didnt win the finals last year which means their due for one this year…..This always happens to the Mavs Always….I remember a few years ago the mavs could have made a deal for Rasheed…..This was in the Nellie and Big 3 days and one of the big 3 wasnt even involved ….its inevitable….Mavs have the curse of the bambino….They cant ever get the coveted FA or work the right deal….Its always the deal they should have made….The Spurs get Maggette we might get Finley ….dont like that scenario at all!!!!!!!!!!

Classic.

Some would say it’s not honorable to kick a man when he’s down. But to that comment, I respond by swiftly delivering a dropkick to the speakers’ genitals. Seeing the mavs and the suns implode before our eyes is priceless, regardless of what Maggette does. Comments and concerns like these never get old, and I will never be above mocking and ridiculing those mavs fans around me who still cling to hope. Karma’s a bitch, folks. Sent a congratulatory email out just yesterday to all my mavs friends about the Diop signing.

Not to quibble, but...

don’t you have to be holding something in order to dropkick it? I mean, the first part of the word is “drop.”

Correct

In fact, a dropkick involves dropping a ball all the way to ground, and then kicking it off the bounce. (For example, Doug Flutie’s dropkicked extra point in his last game.

Right. Why is SiMA holding a man’s genitals? Or maybe he doesn’t mean that he is holding this speakers genitals, in particular, but the genitals of all Suns and Mavs fans. SiMA, you go girl!

I hate all three of you. Damn you for ruining my comment and making it less than the clean and pure way it was intended.

I stand corrected

Despite the italicized wikipedia warning “Not to be confused with drop kick, a maneuver in the football codes.” I mixed up dropkick and drop kick.

Also, what the hell is a “maneuver in the football codes”?

Ooohhhhhh, a WRESTLER'S dropkick

That makes sense now.

But it sure was amusing trying to figure out why in the world you’d be using the football term in that context.

Additionally, I love how you refer to your intention of dropkicking someone in the privates as “clean and pure.” Not sure whether to be proud of you, or a little frightened—guess I’ll settle for a bit of both.

Wait, so you are saying that you are using the wrestling dropkick? That makes no sense. That would be like me threatening to throw a punch “close” to your head. You know, for like show or something. What kind of hostility is that?

So, in essence, you are saying that 1) You aren’t agile and athletic enough to get your feet any higher than the speakers genitals. 2) You don’t intend to actually hit them in the genitals. 3) In the glory of your non-kick to the genitals, you are going to strut around in your tights as if you did something. Hmmm, this sounds like something straight out of the Kenyon Martin playbook. You go girl!

You’re pure evil. A bald hairy mass of evil incarnate. In fact, I’ve had to revise my most hated people list for 070908 just based on this evilness.

You’re assuming all wrestling is fake. I mostly agree. But for an untrained fool such as myself attempting to perform a wrestling move, we’re in a different ballpark. The novice doesn’t know how to pull punches as a thespian. For example, we can both agree that the sport is scripted but you none-the-less would hesitate to offer up your skull for my swinging chair. If I’m wrong, let me know.

1.) I’m as agile as a jungle cat. I’m like a jaguar, only said in the normal way and not the retarded way that the car company says it.
2.) My dropkick’s accuracy never wavers. If it is directed towards someone’s grapes, those grapes it will swiftly find.
3.) No tights, they constrict things that need to breathe. Only very baggy clothing for the jungle cat. And no tats and mindless screaming, so the KMart comparison is a stretch at best.
