Spurs Valentine’s Day Cards


Happy All-Star bre...I mean, Happy Valentine’s Day...weekend...thing!

Star-divide

Actually... not really. I hate this friggin’ holiday. Bad memories, man... Years of consistent rejection, tables for one, and restraining orders take a wicked toll on a man... -like thing.

 

"I got a date already."

 

"You’re a good friend but..."

 

"For the 435th time, NO." 

 

"Sorry, I have to bleach my eyes."

 

"I, uh, suddenly died!" -audible thud-

 

But despite one man’s painful recollections, the lovey-dovey corporate juggernaut rolls on. Did you know the Spurs players have to write Valentine’s card every year? Yep, it’s true (possibly). Apparently, Mr. Holt takes this goody-goody squeaky clean image of ours a little too seriously.

 

Here are some of the most recent ones! (click for larger versions)

Manu never responds to my cards... probably due to the nudity.

I learned that I can't take pictures of spit very well.

 

Hey kids! Why don’t you try writing a V-Day card or poem from/to a Spur? Go nuts!

Don't compare RJ to Sean unless he's coming up clutch while playing with a failing kidney.

Now get cracking (doesn’t need be a picture). :-)

"We suck on 'D. Both individually and team-wise, we suck. We're pretty consistent that way. I don't know if I have an answer to that. If I did, we wouldn't suck quite so bad." - Popovich

The last one made me laugh so much. SiMA even cracked a smile.

Front page worthy!

"We'll see how our character is," guard Tony Parker said. "We don't have time to be sad. Nobody cares. It's just us. We're the only ones who can help each other."
