somehow I knew that the new post was yours dadakota. So you have Griffin starting over Mo Taylor? Very interesting. Do you also have Dan Langhi starting over Cuttino Mobley? He apparently played next to Morris and Griffin last night.
Somebody's violating the terms of the bet . No way in heck Griffin starts over Mo T. No way in heck Langhi starts over Griffin.

DaDakota would be right, if Dan even started at the 3. He didn't, he started at the two... .|.. ..|. ------------------ Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen...
Hey UT, sorry to leave you hangin. This thread got so long I never really had any time to read through the whole thing. Anyway, on to the remnaming. Even though I really like the A&Mmaroon, it's just way too easy. So here you go. Your new moniker is (drumroll please)..... BurntOrange I know, I know....Isn't nearly as mean as it should be. But, since you've been such a good sport about it, I didn't have the heart to be mean. ------------------
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! You have to use the A&M joke. My first exposure to the A&M and UT Austin rivalry was when a friend from Austin (working on a project in Salt Lake) flew his girlfriend out, so that he could work a little bit longer in Salt Lake and so that the client could pay for his & her weekend of skiing. Thursday night she flew in and we all went to dinner. Ayman mentioned that our coworker Jeff from the project(that lives in UT, anyway...) went to A&M. Ayman's girlfriend (? forget her name) asked in a sweet southern drawl, "Texas A&M? Isn't that were the dumb people go?". ROTFLMAO!
Calmate guys. No hounds now. No blankies except for crappy newbie posts.(great idea that newbiehad ) Let me reiterate what Crispee said: pick ONE name and stick to it til the 31st. Don't switch back and forth. If you want to cry because you can't handle losing and changing your name for a while, then fine, back out of the bet if you want, but i don't see why you agreed to bet in the first place. Trying to weasel out of it just makes you look bad. I think its ridiculous that Griffin is a pf in a freaking summer league on a team where the best players on his team are SFs and that is grounds for him being a pf for the season on a REAL NBA team. Like Mo is really going to sit on the bench(and I'm sure KT is going to get no time at all right?). Like Langhi is really going to be a starter AHEAD of Griffin. Will Griffin play pf at spots during the season? YES!! Did Walt play pf last season? Why yes he did, and he is no pf. gimme a break. ------------------ .,.·^*'´'|'\..........,.·^*'´¯¯¯'`*^·,...,/|'`*^·-, '|.......'|::\......,·'.....,.·:*:·,......'`i:'|.......| '|.......'|:::|.....;.......':,:::,:·.......';:|.......| '|.......|::;i - ·;i'`:,......¯¯.......,·´|::|.......| '|.......'´.......'|'i:::`*:~·.–·~^*'´: :'|::|.......'`*·-, '|........,.-:^:':'\:'`:;:: :: : : : :: ::;·'i::/`':^·.,......`'i '|..,.:'´:::::::::::'\| '`*^~·:–:·~^*'´..'|/:::::::::'`:^:., | '´:;:::::::::;:-·^*'´.....................`'*^·:;-.....:;·' ....`·;:·'´........................................'`^·:;·´
HP, I believe you posted after the name change with your HP name and not your crispee name. I am willing to do the bet, but it officially does not happen until October 31st, so switching back and forth is ok, plus it is kind of fun. Also, it looks like Langhi will be ahead of Griffin on the depth chart, if that is the case, does our side win the bet? I think maybe we are jumping a little too quick. Maybe HP's side should think up names for their counterparts just in case that Langhi is indeed ahead of Griffin.

Achebe, I don't have Griffin starting at all, I think he is only 19, and Rudy will bring him along slowly. I also think that too many people here think he is a superstar already...he isn't. I think he will play...but it will be up in the air as to whether he is a 3 or a 4. I think Langhi will be ahead of him on the depth chart, at the start of the season...if that is the case...HP's side wins the bet. Interesting NO? DaDakota? BahDakota? Let's play the weakest link !!!! ------------------ How long do I have to endure this ?
Dadakota, I did not do it on purpose. I did not type in the password, it was carried from my cookie while posting as heyp in this thread. And you know that, too. Screw this man. Dadakota is flat out testing Crisco's here. He is out of the bet. Don't anyone attempt to be a bi-uid on purpose by using a bet moniker with your old one. Dadakota is clearly doing this on purpose so that he will get kicked out, too. Reneger. I for one, do not think this is cool, at all.
This is not true. Notice you said "HP's side". You lose if your sides says they lose. This bet was not about the starter. You are just clinging to that, so you can say you didn't lose. The bet was what were our offseason priorities: SF or PF. We made a blockbuster trade, so now this has nothing to do with Langhi. Langhi was merely a tiebreaker, should there be no major acquisition. Sorry you didn't understand that. But notice how you are the only one pitching a fit about it ... "i didn't know" What a weasel!
Part of the bet was that once Heypee or Crisco conceded, their side lost. No questions asked, no recriminations, no reneging. That condition was clearly stated at the beginning of the bet, and those of you involved in the bet accepted said condition. Give it up, we lost. ------------------ It was the time of the preacher, in the year of '01 Now the preachin' is over, and the lessons begun . . .

So why concede the bet if we don't know whether or not Griffin is a PF or a SF? There is nothing wrong with waiting to see if there is no clear winner. As for name calling, I really could give a flying yahoo about that. Where is the Rudy quote that says that Griffin is a SF? WHERE?.... You never concede until you know the truth, that is just stupid.

Hey maybe this is off subject but can we at least get some updates on the proposed name changes on the first post HP, errr HD? thanks ------------------ "There are three kinds of lies: Lies, Damned Lies, and STATISTICS..." - Mark Twain -
You go DaDakota !!! So, by some of your definitions, if someone concedes ON HIS OWN accord, then we all should automatically concede. PUUUHHHLLLEEEAAASSSEEE!!!! HP seems to be a nice guy...sometimes...but to blindly follow him on a bet is not even funny. The old if he jumps of the bridge would you do it too? Comes to mind. If he conceded fine, but it is up to each one of us to concede too. No one said that simply because someone in their euphoria at getting Griffin, jumped the gun, that we all have to follow. I don't follow ANYONE, except my wife of course. DaDakota ------------------ How long do I have to endure this ?
DaDakota, I haven't heard anything from the Rockets that would lead one to believe Eddie Griffin would be a power forward. Mo Taylor will be resigned, Kenny Thomas deserves minutes and has done nothing to lose his backup spot, and therefore using Griffin primarily as a 4 makes no sense. In fact, the only reason he's starting at small forward in the LA summer league is because Kenny Thomas isn't there. ------------------ matirmama, alabdhabhuumikatva
TPL, I agree, and where is the quote that says he is a SF? You don't concede a bet BEFORE the outcome is clear, that is just plain stupid ! DaDakota ------------------ How long do I have to endure this ?
