    Turkcan did actually get some playing time under JVG in NY back in in the 99/00 season. He got traded midseason to the Bucks (coached by George Karl).

    Read YAO's book and get back to me. He doesn't call him big brother just because he doesn't want to diss him. Also, If you ever saw Francis play in Houston, he was never a character problem for us, except for the Superbowl thing but thats about it. Never was a locker room problem here either. He loves it here, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen to come back. V-Span will never be half the player Francis was or is.

    Give up all the "he woulda, he coulda, blah blah, what if" bullcrap. He couldn't cut it in the NBA and that is a fact. He got his chances, he complained, b****ed, whined, cried and got sent to the end of the bench. His only competition was JL3 and he couldn't even beat him out? What a joke.

    Oh and how about this excuse, "He wasn't able to play his role! He sucked because he was forced to shoot open shots and play defense. He woulda played better if he got to penetrate and dish!" Well, Mr. Lucas III didn't have a problem filling that role at all. He's more effective with the ball in his hands but you didn't see him complaining about the role and minutes he was given. He took advantage, something V-Gina should have done instead of complaining like a baby girl. There is no proof that V-Span could of, or would of been a serviceable NBA player, its nothing but all speculation. But there is proof that he indeed SUCKED in his time as a "NBA player". Nothing will change that.

    In that case, seek professional help.

    Based on your posts over the years I think that's an example of the pot calling the kettle black.

    Yeah, SamF appears to be a foul, twisted, and abusive person. I guess he just likes to be that way.

    Even though this thread has a perverse fascination for me, I think it is wasted energy. JVG and V-Span are history and I wish them both well. I think we all have a LOT to look forward to with the Rockets this year, and wish we could just put this stuff in the past where it belongs. We can't change any of it now anyway.

    Here's to the future!

    He must have dirty pictures of clutch or something cause I've never seen someone insult as many people as he does on a daily basis without receiving a ban. But I admit, his posts are amusing, cause everything he says is more of a self reflection of himself. He just likes to act out on a messageboard for attention due to the anonymity.

    I kinda doubt he has any compromising Clutch photos, but your theory could hold water. The late great Sigmund Freud might suggest that he has an obsession with "donkey balls" and "jockstraps" due to some sort of ill-defined penis envy, which provokes an obscene amount of bravado behind the protection of his computer screen.

    V-Span is just a pretext for this sick, uncouth pervert to lash out against Rocket fans. I'd like to see the trash he posts banned.

    did you mean to write emasculates or encapsulates?

    you VSpan fans just don't get it. I'm getting the last word on this issue. And that last word is best described by string theory. do you know what string theory is?

    figuratively speaking...string theory is a figurative theory. not literal. There are strings instead of particals...sorta like threads but not quite. But this IS a thread. And our replies are strings....at least in computer terms our replies are strings.

    allow me to add a visual

    <img src="http://www.heypartner.com/images/stringsfordummies.jpg">

    so, do you not see the pattern? I might have put Space and Time on the wrong axis, but you get the general idea, right? Also, string theory has more dimensions than my microsoft paint can deal with. Imagine 11 dimensions...which is somewhat ironic in the sense that Yao's number is 11, as well. Yao is the magical 11th dimension of string theory.

    but back to my point. As you can see from my graphic, "Me" referes to me, not You and not VSpan. I am getting the last string in this thread. not You. And my string is going to say "VSpan SuCKS!" in all caps!!!

    Thing that you will also notice in my chart is Clutch has nowhere to go. If he moves one way or another on this issue it means he is going to get closer to You, Me or VSpan. right? do you not see that!! Clutch must take a side.

    well, Or maybe he'll just wipe us off the space / time continuum chart like some theoretical Big Bang that only Clutch can do.

    bottomline: Notice JVG is off the chart!

    Well, I challenge your T-bar antiquark to an ultra-light, nasal-decongestant, glacier-melting rendevous in the stratosphere!

    All HeyP was trying to say is that V-Span and Gundy are tragic gay lovers in an alternate parallel universe, and that Gundy is soon to be outta the picture.

    Take it to the bank. It took me an hour to figure it out.

    Ha! Not sure I would go that far, but I think V-Span should stand trial for the US losing the war in Iraq and driving this SamFisher guy into eating Greek-flavored turds.

    This might be the greatest of your 16,596 posts. Nicely done! (even though I have no idea what any of it means)

    I think we've crossed over into:


    You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension: a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into... the Twilight Zone. :D

    really Sam, how often do any of us *really* understand what heyp is saying?

    I get the same feeling sometimes when we are at games and something sets him off.

    You wanna have some *real* fun?

    go to an old blues bar with both him AND naismith....after quite a few drinks.

    An old song from the Ramones comes to mind. ;)
