    Evidently, they weren't big on geography at the University of Kansas, or at least it wasn't Drew Gooden's strong point. The fourth pick in the draft by the Memphis Grizzlies, Gooden was asked by the San Francisco Chronicle if he intended to visit Graceland, the storied home of the late Elvis Presley. Gooden's response? "I didn't even know Elvis was from Memphis. I thought he was Tennessee."

    Nice start in Memphis, Tennessee for Drew :D

    I'm surprised it was not a quote from Kenny Smith

    How about Ming saying he's gonna block Shaq's dunks?

    That's pretty ****ing stupid.

    Drew seemed intelligent before I saw him speak to the media.

    Don't all people seem that way?

    That is a terrible mishap by Drew. I hope it was by accident.

    You mean non-education. I've been in classes designed for "athletes". If you're a non-athlete, they'll kick you out cause you're taking a valuable spot. Just think how your classes were in 7th grade and you're getting college credit! lol :D

    Just praying the law school folks don't know :(

    What are you talking about? That was the most coherent and edifying quote I've heard in a very long time - from anyone...

    I think the irony is crash making fun of Gooden, but spelling "biggest" incorrectly in the subject of this thread.

    Now that's funny... :)

    ...sorry Crash, had to.

    People you think look smart are smart until you hear them open their mouth.

    No, I knew Ming was stupid before he said he would block Shaq's dunks.

    Why can't he? Eddie did it when he was 80 lbs. lighter, and 9 inches shorter than Ming. You're pretty f#$ing stupid for thinking he couldn't block shaq once in awhile...
