    It has nothing to do with whether or not someone is WILLING to sign... it has to do with how you carry yourself through this world as a human being. If a bum on the street asks me for money, at minimum I acknowledge them and say "sorry" as I continue on my life....

    It's called reading comprehension... as I said, if someone doesn't want to sign - no prob - they dont owe me anything and I bear no ill will to someone that declines... but if yer gonna be a jerk, don't expect me to buy yer jersey and cheer for your success... jus sayin...

    Well from seeing his demeanor and interaction with the other players he seems like a shy kid, and speaking from personal experience sometimes shy kids come off as rude, but truthfully they are just trying to keep to themselves.

    This. Or the autograph seeker is an unlikable or unattractive human. I personally never bother with the uglies.

    Fatties, sometimes. But never the uglies.

    Yeah, he was pretty bad. I knew a guy who worked at a Service Station that was right beside the apartments where Olajuwon's girlfriend, Lita Spencer, lived. He said that Olajuwon was the cheapest and rudest customer they had.

    I remember Olajuwon fighting his brother in the parking lot of the Summit.

    Striking a convenience store employee for commenting about his being rude to customers still in line. Olajuwon's gf was in the store and heard the comment.

    Olajuwon punched a cameraman in his gf's apartment complex.

    I was a season ticket holder back in 86 and I'd go to the player's entrance behind the Summit after most games. Akeem was always rude. As much crap has Zampson caught for being aloof he was far more courteous than Olajuwon.

    Loved Akeem the player, not a fan of the guy back then.

    You are more tolerant than me. I never bother with the fatties, uglies or the stinkies.

    Especially the stinkies. Unlike fatties and uglies, can't pretend to ignore the stinkies, must give wide berth.

    With all due respect, who cares? For all you know, he was looking for some chick that he hoped to hook up with after the game. There could be dozens of reasons not having a damn thing to do with you. Honestly, the vast majority of us are tired of your interruption of a thread about the game, not who did, or didn't get an autograph.

    Oh s**t, I thought I stepped into the twilight zone, because I thought I was going to read about Game 5 of the SL. Damn the thread gods!

    Just curious, anyone know how Chad Ford graded our draft? Was it the A+ that Morey totally deserves?

    :)

    Even though I still wish we had gotten Meyers.

    :(
