NBA Wants More Respect for Game and Officials.....
 
NBA will whistle more techs for 'overt' gestures - NBA - Yahoo! Sports

WHACK!

I guess this means Rasheed Wallace will be ejected from 82 regular season games this year.

How about Don Nelson throwing a towel in this music video? No doubt Bill Fitch would for getting in an officials face.

BTW- turn on your speakers.

He must really look old today? And Mark Padgett: Jack Sonni, the Dire Straits bare footed guitarist, must not be a big deal for you. Don't all you tree hugging, pot smoking, Oregonian hippies go bare foot all the time? How do you guys prevent trench foot since it rains almost every day out there in the Pacific Northwest?

Hey - we actually have two seasons: the rainy season and July 17th. :rolleyes:

BTW - we all do go barefoot, but we tape Nike logos on our ankles. :D

What If You Have Six Toes On Each Foot ???

Send me a photo and I will send you my credit card number and my three digit credit card code to purchase a pair. I will need size eleven, with six toes on each foot.

Use a Sharpie to touch up any part that isn't black.

Great, maybe it will filter down to the lower levels as well.
