    Yeah, I was just thinking about what sport his size/ skills would best fit -- he would still be too small to be an NFL QB, but he would be slightly above average in size playing soccer.

    I think I would go with Kareem. I think Kareem's initial NBA weight was less than Jordan's ending NBA weight.

    AI probably could have been a phenomenal cornerback though.

    Is Manute Bol pound for pound the thinnest player ever?

    Who was it that Murph grabbed by the hair and shredded their face with punches?

    Maybe grabbin' their hair kept the face down low so he could pound it with his punches. Murph was unreal. If we had one of his balls on the team, we'd be takin' names and kickin' butt. That, and half the Power Dancers would be preggers.

    No doubt -- maybe even a receiver.

    pound for pound?

    maybe he is the best pound for pound player ever, but thats because he weighs so little.

    by those standards, shaq would be the worst pound for pound player to ever win an mvp award... i mean, bring his weight down to iversons and who has more game?


    this analogy just doesn't work for this sport.

    Pound for pound, Spud Webb is the greatest dunker ever.
    Pound for pound, Antoine Walker is the worst 3pt shooter ever.
    Pound for pound, Minute Bol is the best shot blocker ever.

    there's no rule that says iverson can't gain more weight. if more weight helps, he will get that.

    I just love how JVG calls out Jackson every chance he gets. The Knicks are going to absolutely SUCK under him, and I can't wait to watch it happen. I never really liked him as a player (his freaking back-it-up post play ALWAYS rubbed me the wrong way.....just so annoying to watch), and after he did the Rockets-Spurs game where he just blindly bashed T-Mac for NO REASON WHATSOEVER, I hate him as a commentator. JVG kept giving him reasons why T-Mac should at least be CONSIDERED for MVP, and he just kept saying "NOPE...KOBE, CP3, LEBRON, KG....THAT'S IT." He wouldn't even explain himself. He's an assh*le, and I truly hope he fails as a head coach.

    Sounds to me like he would rather take George Karls job and coach AI!
