    I work at a dps/dmv office. I saw several very tall guys come in. I didn't think they were ball players. But the second such person I saw was at the counter near me. I recognized the person, but I couldn't remember his name. So I went over and asked "Sir, what is your name? He quietly pointed to his passport and said there it is. It was Carl Landry. I didn't ask any questions. I shook, his hand, told him I like his game, and that i wish he was still with the Rockets. I left it at that.

    Less than an hour later I noticed this guy milling around outside with an expensive digital camera. I didn't see a new truck, so I couldn't figure it out. Later when I went inside some of my female co workers, who are not sports fans, asked who that tall guy it that they are recording. I immediately recognized Clint Capella. I told him that I like his game as well.

    I'm told Clint took a road exam to get his license. The result? Let's just say he parallel parks like hs shoots free throws.

    Some body who lives in Sacto would know him. He is just not a name in the airwaves here since he was traded.

    I hope that was just some random guy with the same name Carl Landry. Probably made his day.

    The real question is, do your female coworkers like YOUR game? ::p


    Cool experience. You should probably recognize Carl though. :)

    You should have told Landry his dunk on Lamar Odom was sooo memorable.

    He can rebound and block shots... Learning to drive will add another dimension to his game.
