-we need a pf asap

What was the tweet? Or was the whole thing fantasy haha.

 

[Dann]

"Gon shock the world !!"

 

[Tenspro2002]

I doubt Noel was even following college basketball in 1999. He would have been what, about 6 years old?

 

[NOTaDIME]

"Gon shock the world !!"

I hear this type of stuff every signing day for football and basketball.

I think the last time we heard a recruit say that, Rodney Purvis stayed home and went to NC State. Think he could be going to Georgetown.

Let me preface this by saying that I have no doubt that I am probably 20 years older than you and at least 20 times more easily provoked than you will ever be. You are a pleasant soul, I'm not. One of us is a jerk and it is not you.

With that understood...

Is there something about the shift key on your keyboard that scares you? Is there a reason that you refuse to use it? Can I pay you to start using it? Is English your third or fourth language?

Further, did it occur to you that maybe including Noel's tweet would add some context to your post? Do you do this to see if you can make a blood vessel in my brain explode? Are you trying to kill me? Can you stop trying?

 

[61cygni]

He totally used it for those sweet parentheses.

How about this:

I will use the shift key from now on (but probally won't). You have to tell the board one crazy story a week about a active poster here as the trade off. I'm 42, I'm a man. You are not that much older than me. For the record, yes there is a shift key issue. The one on the left side of my keyboard on my crapy old laptop is broke so I hate using the right one becuase I have crapy typing skills and it's awkward using the right side one (yes I'm part challenged mentally). English is my first language, don't make me go all AO Sr. on you! But being my first language doesn't mean I'm literate. Just ask my 8th grade grammar teacher.

i will now stop tryin as ur brain explodes...

Lol.

My God.

I am younger than you. (By days, weeks or months, but not years.) But you are clearly nicer than I am.

I have just pried up my left shift key. I am mailing it to you - you need it more than I do.

If you drive down my driveway and don't turn around at the bottom but instead turn around on the front lawn grass, you would see I'm not that nice of a guy. But really, I'm old enough to party. How much do I owe you for that shift key? BestBuy wanted $5 and I instead bought a Zona ice tea and some chips at the Sunoco. Way better investment. I'll just wait it out until I finish Grad school and buy a Apple (food for thought).

In other news: Shabazz M. is down to the 3 we all know (duke/uk/ucla). So there is no hope with him if anyone had any.

You two are going to need to get a room.

It's funny that you would be the one to comment on a "relationship". Maybe I should take Fishy on a trip to ahh, hmm, Colorado?

If you could leave Fishy naked on a mountain in Colorado, you would be my new favorite poster!

I think I'm going to f'ng cry. This was, without a doubt, the most touching exchange I've ever read on this forum. Or maybe anywhere. It was as if I had stepped into a Meg Ryan movie. An absolute thing of beauty, and so unexpected. Amore.

 

[willie99]

are the "..." supposed to represent what Noel said?

Jimmy said somebody is joining us soon, that means something to me

I'm thinking that somebody is RJ Evans, who's probably just waiting to find out for sure that Lamb is gone.

Regarding Noel, many of these recruits try very, very hard to keep their college choices a surprise, but very few actually succeed. Gotta give credit to Noel and Shabazz Muhammad, who seem to have people confused. Of course, they'll probably just do the least surprising thing and both go to Kentucky.

Been there done that...the last time Fishy visited Cuse...we tied him up naked waist down in a newborn calf pen at a nearby dairy farm.

Help the man out Fishy.

7.85 at Sprawlmart: Dan - you do have a USB port on your computer, right?

 

[Prezidint]

BTW - If Noels comes to UConn, you'd have to seriously question his decision making.
Guy is a one and done.
It would be a horrible decision to come to UConn and potentially miss out on his one and only tourni.

Would blow me away.

Or, as Fishy calls it, Tuesday.

Brightsiding here....

Maybe he was sold on the old "Less games, less chance for injury" pitch.....

That's better than the alternative of still being tied similarly but flipped around and in the Bull pen.......or maybe not....

 

[Bill Sussman]

Given our recent track record at Tilton......

I think Nickelback producing a quality song is more likely than Noels coming to UConn.

Noel would do himself a favor by coming to UCONN... Could showcase his big man talents with AO and probably Drummond gone...
