[hhcmatt]

This Friday, Aug 22nd.  Not sure if JBD plays regular minutes but he's on the Puerto Rico roster with JJ Barea and Renaldo Balkman.

While not quite up to date, this might be a bit easier to read for rosters.

Good for him, and us even because he was a Husker.

nustudent is going to hate-watch this game just so he can complain about how soft Diaz is...

It's OK for a guy to have puss-itis if he's on the other team.

I want nustudent back!

Here is a theory on this subject: nustudent is no longer a student (probably hasn't been for quite a while), so he no longer posts on this board or on Red Sea Scrolls under that name--but he still posts on both this board and Red Sea Scrolls under different names. Anyone know if this theory is anywhere close to accurate?

Perhaps the gangling student has turned into a beautiful swan!

Now that's funny! But I wouldn't want to cast aspersions on NUStudent by suggesting or leaving an implication that I am he. I'm not.

[atskooc]

He was here once or twice during the season.

[PimpMario]

I am sad we lost him.  Losing 10 points a game always hurts.

Chrome asked me if I wanted to translate this page to English. I said yes, and this is what the Puerto Rican roster became:

 

Shipowners - Carlos Arroyo, José Juan Barea and Carlos Rivera 

Escorts and eaves - David Huertas, Angel D. Vassallo, Alexander Franklin and Alex Galindo 

Front and pivots - Ramon Clemente, Ricky Sanchez, Renaldo Balkman, Jorge Brian Diaz and Danny Santiago

[49r]

So...is Diaz a Front or a Pivot?

Hope his team doesn't like dunks

Nope.

Still here.  Haven't been a student since the Collier era.   Just unfortunate luck that a job change which keeps me pretty busy happens during a magical 18 month run.

Too bad that job change didn't happen during the last season of Doc.

I had a dream the other night that JBD was in an episode of Law and Order.  The cops needed information from him and questioned him as he was waiting in the drinking fountain line during practice.

Hmmmm.  Little known fact:  I'm an amateur pop-psychologist.

 

I'm going to interpret your dream for you ... for free.

 

First of all, water always represents sex.  Except when you're thirsty.  So, question:  Were you dehydrated that night? 

 

And JBD was waiting in line for water and not actually drinking.  Hmmmm.  Did you view him as someone shy and quiet who maybe wasn't getting any?  Hmm?

[atskooc]

Well, he didn't dunk very often, if that's what you mean.

Priceless.

 

I wish we still had the emot that rolls on the ground and pounds the floor while laughing.

[atskooc]

I almost went with something about not taking it to the hole, but the dunk bit was too good to let sit.
