    Was able to meet Mr. Jim Foley today through a mutual friend. He absolutely hates Russell Westbrook and says many in the organization say Tilman is cheaper than we all think.

    I saw Jim Foley at a grocery store in Pearland yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
    He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
    I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
    The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
    When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

    Was he still wearing his championship ring? When I used to wait tables, many, many moons ago, I would wait on him frequently. He was always sporting the ring and chain smoking - and quite frankly - he was a bitter ass b*stard.

    Has that changed?

    Didn't notice the ring. Just a green polo and some khaki slacks. This was at Le Madeleine by the way lol.

    oh and Jim, if you happen to read this, you were a lousy tipper too. That's why I always ignored you.
