    this year i remembered he always does a joke, so i came to the site and expected a joke, it was cool thought, because of the yahoo site, i looked at a thing to see iot was fake, i finally saw the adress. i liked the one where clutch changes it in a spurs site, i also fel for the one where olajuwon was taken of the top 50 of all time list.:( yes i was naive

    Clutch - you rock. That was awesome.

    But... you know some Chinese media outlet will pick it up and treat it as fact. :D

    I might've fallen for the Spurs one, but I'm pretty sure the only one that freaked me out was the Rudy T quitting one. I was on the phone to call Major when I figured it out.

    I always look forward to this day to see the April Fools. That fake "Yahoo" link was awesome! Even the "mouse over" on the link on the front page displayed http://sports.yahoo.com/etc etc. And then to have a fake Yahoo page with the story. Outstanding! And how great was it to use last night's Mutombo/Yao incident as the basis of the story? Very timely! ;)

    Clutch rules!

    How interesting would it be if China news organizations start reporting this after reading it on the Clutch City website???? ha!

    I fall for it every year. I was outraged that Kobe Bryant replaced Hakeem on the 50 all-time greatest list a few years ago.
