    Hmm I wonder why Aaron snubbed you twice? My friends met him a couple of times, and both times, he let him take pics. :confused:

    i heard the same thing about him, so you can imagine the disappointment. but i've been around enough of these guys to know how to act so i dont come off as imposing or rude. he was in a good mood (they just one on his shot no less) and he was really just hanging around and talking.

    oh well.

    Yeah I did get to play Landry, we played about 1.5 quarters and I was up like 33 - 18 or something like that and he had to leave to sign autographs or do something for the fans. He did say something I thought was funny and will always remember. I asked him "where are you in this game carl?" and he goes "man your right, i'm not in here, this game sucks, it' ain't got no me!"

    That pic was taken at a bank where aaron was signing autographs..he seems really down to earth and quiet. All he said was "whats up", I told him he was doing a great job as starting point and to keep it up and he just looked at me and kinda nodded. He just reminded me of any regular kid I would meet like in class or something lol.

    yeah i dont think it's going to work from myspace because of it's security settings..you're going to have to host the pic elsewhere or make it public.

    Devin Harris just earned some respect from me. Seemed like a really nice guy.

    Maybe Brooks will be in the trade with McGrady?

    they were. almost all of them said the pic has to be fast. they all wanted to get going, and probably just get the cleveland trip over with. but at least scola packed his lunch lol

    the times i've met aaron i've realized he really keeps to himself, especially if his wife and daughter are around he will only stick with them and not talk to any of the other people. he is a nice guy though but it really depends on the time and place you get a hold of him.
