OK, top 5, in no particular order Coltrane Tyrone Maximus Elway Jethro I don't feel too strong about any of them.
dude, Vengeance, you just beat me to it. I was reading this whole thread, thinking, "oh, it's got to be Shaft. why hasn't anyone said Shaft yet?". and then there it was, the last post in the thread. anyway, VesceySux has provided me with a total jog of the memory and a chuckle with Ming the Merciless. now, the Rockets must get Yao Ming just so we can call him that. I think that would be a good follow-up to Hakeem the Dream Olajuwon. . . Yao Ming the Merciless "alright, I'll kick you monkey asses my fuc*ing self. you think I open a restaurant in the middle of the 'hood and don't know what's going on? I fuc*ing represent. I will avenge my brothers by representing and whipping your ass, word is bond. I will show you flying fists of judah. . . this is a Chinese restaurant, but like Burger King, have it your way! WHAP WHAP."
