    He'll never be able to do it again with threads like this on the front page of the GARM in the middle of the frickin day.

    If you have to ruin it for everyone, why not do it here?

    Yeeeeeesh.

    I say you start treating everyday as April Fool's Day. If on May 8th you decide you want to start a, "I'm shutting down Clutchfans," or, "Yao buys Rockets and will move them to China," or, "Rockets resign TMac," or, "Aaron Brooks to play for WNBA after sex change operation," thread, then you go right ahead and do it. It might be even better if its done on a non-April 1st day b/c then everyone would freak out and the whole message board would explode into a thousand million pieces!

    Now the anticipation for next April Fool's Day will be off the hook, strong work Clutch!

    It's a big ?. Clutch said they didn't let him in the offices like they normally do.

    The insider in the GARM posted something yesterday but hasn't been heard from yet.

    My friend works at the TC and overheard Daryl Morey and Tad Brown getting at each other behind closed doors. Couldn't make it out, though.

    I was actually in contact with him via twitter earlier, he said that there would be some sort of update later on tonight. I'm not going to compromise his name at this point, but he told me to look for a hidden message later on today.

    I'm not sure what thread it will be in, or how it will go down. I'll post more information as I have time. I am in school right now, but once I see something that's worth pointing out, I will fill you guys in.

    you're right about that one... believe me, a lot of these posters are just speculating

    this has NOTHING to do with daryl morey

    it is a little bit more interesting than that....

    Most people already anticipate the joke, but thanks for bringing it out in the open to the people that are completely oblivious to it.

    You should pick a random month to make up for it Clutch. You could really get some people if you did it in a few months as opposed to April.

    Clutch decided to run the April Fool's joke on the UH basketball program with his announcement today that James Dickey - currently coaching in Jr. High School - will replace Tom Penders.

    That's not only a joke but the cruelest joke of all...

    All the complaints about me spoiling it? Seriously. :grin:

    Some of you guys haven't been around these parts for very long obviously. If Clutch would have pulled one this year...

    1) He wouldn't have waited to do it sometime in the frickin afternoon hence me asking,

    2) there would already be a bazillion posts on the joke already on this BBS like occurs every year that he does do it
