    Lol, I'd been preparing april fool jokes all evening yesterday so I wasn't phased much by it.

    I've learned that April Fools days can still be funny though, just not necessarily surprising for the last 22 years I've been alive ;)

    The only one that got me was the Ryan Bowen prank a few years ago. That was well-played.

    Too many pranks today so I didn't fall for it. I did last year though.

    If you actually watch that video you'd have to wonder why T-Mac would allow that stuff on a site he owns.

    I didnt really fall for this one. believed in clutch selling the site (that could always really happen) until it mentioned the site was going to become t-mac.com

    I thought some of the shots in that video were inappropriate. I mean, why bring down all the actual good stuff he does in the community with the rest of it?? I really disliked the inclusion of the shot from the NBA Caring spots.

    I actually tried to go to the main page to see what the prank would be. Earlier this morning it still had the Spurs victory, so I was disappointed.

    clutchcity.com moment was probably the best... I fell for that one.. I think this April fools was pretty easy, usually I don't know when it's April Fools, but for some reason this time I had planned on doing wicked things on April Fools so I mean I couldn't get fooled on something by someone else.

    It had me for 2 secs but then it made me realize what day this was so I decided to play a prank on a friend on mine at work who is a Dallas Mavericks fan. I sent him this e-mail:

    He figured out that it was a prank pretty fast. Maybe after clicking the fake link.

    Because, my friend, when you take your first strokes into the dark, wide ocean of T-Mac hate, the undertow is fierce... there is no turning back... the waters will overtake you, until you can no longer remember that T-Mac is a human being, or that he ever did anything good.... embrace it.....
