    Barry is right though. Battier's suggestion is the dumbest thing ever. Not only would the owners be against it over all the lost money, all the players would too since all their salaries would go down with less games played.

    I believe Battier acknowledged as much-- saying that his idea would never get adapted because of the money issue. He was simply saying that he thinks there are too many games, and it will better for the player's health were that to happen. Perhaps he was willing to make the trade off of money and health/longevity, but he knew most would not be.

    He's used to the San Antonio locker room, where the players and coaches ripped on each other frequently in a teasing manner. It shouldn't be taken seriously.

    How could Kevin Brown have survived the post game talk when Tracy went 13 in 35...

    Anytime anyone wants to arrange a date for this aging relic with any of these gorgeous RPD's it will be appreciated and remembered fondly. These ladies deserve nothing but adoration and respect.

    RPD: There's a couple cute ones...my favorite would probably have to be Natalie.

    Some of them have serious hair issues and some are just plain ugly.

    I got all nauseated looking at the RPD site. :(


    The controls were too hard to use. I had to be toooooo damn precise to stop it on a certain RPD.

    This years RPD crop just aren't impressive as in years past. Hopefully, their bubbly personalities make up for it. When I see them on the streets, or when I see them at Rocket functions, hopefully they'll say "Hey Kam, What's going on Bud?" and I'll say, "nothing." And then I'll keep walking.


    I like that Alumni site. I'm going to see my teacher on there. She was an RPD in the late 90s.
