Around SBN: How A Letter From Tom Coughlin Helped One Fan's Recovery

Tony Parker announces that De Colo will play with French National Team this summer

Earlier this week, the Spurs announced that De Colo will be on the roster for the Summer league.

Today, Tony Parker announced in a press conference in France that De Colo will play with the French National Team this summer. Although it is not really a surprise, it does not make sense with the Summer League roster announcement. The participation of the De Colo to the Summer league was letting us suppose that the Spurs wanted to integrate him directly in the roster for next year.

Nevertheless, Parker also sayd that the Spurs will let De Colo play in Europe for 2 or 3 years.

EDIT July 6th: SpurNando's agent has confirmed that De Colo will play with the French National Team this summer and with Valencia in Spain, next year.

Precisely — someone needs to find out who did that, and … um, like maybe let some air out of his tires or, pour some kinda dirty water on his windshield.

I wonder if the intense Vegas summer heat will actually just steam cook the fish. Thus making the creator of the summer league roster find a pleasant, delicious surprise in his car… You’ve let us down SCS!

Okay, I’ve underestimated you SCS. I do have a bit of a problem with you dispensing beer, but seeing as to how it is for a noble cause, I’ll let is slide.

And I have a problem with you calling Bud Light “beer”. But it’s ok, you still have a lot to learn o’ young one.

I know just the man to talk to for the Bud Light.

Damn. This ruins my plans to go to The Can during a Spurs-Nuggets game and sing “Spur Nando” during the timeouts.

You can still follow through with your plan; it’d just be a bit more random now, that it would have been otherwise.

Plus, it would really confuse the Nuggets fans. Hmmm.

Not that

that’s
just a hard thing to do.

I’m sorry, it’s just too easy. I couldn’t resist.

Why do you say that, rikiddo? Is Pop a big ABBA fan?

if he is an ABBA fan

then I’m now slightly less of a Spurs fan.
