    Good job Clutch. Even though I expected it, when I initially saw the headline, I had to double check just to make sure it was April 1st. Thanks for the laugh on an otherwise dreary day!

    And to so many who posted in this thread .......you guys suck .....you take yourselves, this BBS, and in general, life, waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too seriously. I feel sorry for ya'll.

    Haha. I bet this is why xcomp was banned yesterday.

    He was flipping out in the chat last night.

    LOL on the 24hr bans!

    Loved the joke, hate how so many of the newer peeps ruin it for the rookies.

    It was funny seeing them react so surprised that the "vets" were so gullible when we played along.

    Pretty good April Fools Joke Clutch.

    I knew you had done a great job when I got a text from a friend at 2:08p.m. yesterday afternoon saying "Dude I have been hearin that hakeem is comin back!" and when a few people were calling into the station yesterday asking if we had heard about Hakeem making a comeback with the Rockets.

    Bravo.

    yeah, i've lurked on this site for a long time w/o ever signing up but i guess i just never checked it on April 1st. I didn't fall for it but i thought everyone else did so i just kinda played along and then i said something that kinda gave it away and i got banned.

    I didn't know what was going on and i finally caught on that you have to play along to stay in.

    Does his support for Obama bother you that much?? I mean, seriously, who cares...

    Oh, and yeah, people who ruin jokes are no fun. People who don't get jokes are also un-fun.

    Thanks you Clutchfans for being fun.

    I remembered once Clutch put a April 1st joke that really ruined my day until I realized it's April fool's joke. It was about Mutumbo (who was with New Jersey at the time) hit Yao and Yao was out for the season.)

    I honestly never saw that post as I rarely post in this forum due to all the rooks and Rox bashing. Thanks for the heads up.

    You still need to add me to your sig, though.
