    Pretty sad to see Mobley close to retiring loved him as a Rocket.

    teve Francis told the Houston Chronicle that his friend Cuttino Mobley is despondent over the possibility of early retirement.

    Mobley has an enlarged heart that could force him to retire.

    "That's the same ailment he has played with his whole career," said Francis. "It's terrible. He didn't sound too good today.

    "It's tough. I know how much he loves playing basketball. I don’t know how he'd react. He's close to a decision."

    I read in one of the NY papers that Knicks' team doctors have already concluded he's retiring.

    Not at all, I could see if it was one of the other threads where we joke about their relationship, but this is pretty serious.

    Let him make it, man. He was just giving a bit of pertinent advice, since "Steve Francis has huge balls............."



    But honestly, the jokes should at least be geared toward the "Cuttino's enlarged heart always showed on the court" end of the spectrum.

    ...because we'll miss him if he has to retire :(

    He should donate the extra tissue to Tracy McGrady.

    7 posts before this turned into a bash Tracy thread. So sad.

    Aside from being a r****ded half-assed attempt at being funny, it doesn't even make any sense. Since when does an enlarged heart have any relation to unprotected gay sex?

    So the first reply which implied that Cuttino took it up the ass from Steve just didn't happen? Yeah, Tracy really has it rough on this board... :rolleyes:

    Yes. Sad that the franchise player takes time off against the advice of the doctors.

    but to stay on topic, I feel bad for Mobley until I realize he is already 33 (already old for a SG) and a millionaire. I would trade places with him every day of the week. I do wish we had a few guys on this team with his heart if not his decision making on the court.

    If you guys are going to crack jokes in such poor taste, you should at least try to be funny.
