We predicted Jesse would win! Remember?
November 4, 1998
~~~ NOTE FROM CHRIS: ~~~
A little background information for our non-USA readers...
The National Basketball Association, or NBA, has cancelled the
first few weeks of its season as owners and players try to work
out a new labor agreement. At the moment, no teams are playing
-- not even my beloved Houston Rockets.
The Top 13 Hardships for Out-of-Work NBA Players
- Forced to cut back from classy $8000-a-night call girls to skanky $5000-a-night variety.
- Humiliating to have to ask that photographer you kicked in the groin for a loan.
- "Choking the coach" now a private affair between the player and himself.
- All these new summer tattoos and no one to show 'em to.
- No longer able to afford stretch limo, more prone to injuries during romp in backseat of an AMC Pacer with Madonna.
- Research for doctoral thesis "29 Hoes in 29 Cities" comes to a grinding halt.
- Instead of having high quality weed delivered, must venture out to pick up generic brand themselves.
- Charge account revoked at "Big and Tall Freak of Nature" shop.
- Trash talking totally ludicrous after sinking ten foot underwear-to-the-hamper shot.
- Spike Lee is camped out on the front lawn, and you're tired of hearing how you mow the lawn like a wimp.
- With no early morning practices, getting Toni Braxton to leave can be a real chore.
and the Number 1 Hardship for Out-of-Work NBA Players...
- Restricted to fathering illegitimate children in a confined geographical region.
