Basketball Jonez

So I'm listening to the radio this morning and they're interviewing one of the Boston Celtics.

It went something like this:

RADIO GUY: "Pretty impressive win...what are you going to do in game 3?"

BASKETBALL BRAINIAC: "Well....I'll tell you what we're NOT gonna do...we're not gonna rest our laurels."

------------------

Now as a sports fan this concerns me. I get nervous when my sports heroes have tired laurels!

(I'm resting my laurels right now)

SO TO SUM UP:
Play the game, don't speak.

  1. Just don't rest your laurels too long. I hear that's how you get the special constables.

    It isn't racist...it's a commentary on atheletes who can't speak correct english.

  12. Bruce Willis was at last night's Celtics game. I think that his presence will finally bring credibility and notoriety to the National Basketball League (I think that's what they're calling it).

  15. No real ath-a-leet rests his (or her)laurels! If you rest your laurels, they'll atrophy! Same goes for your pectorals, your deltoids, your triceps, etc.!

    So, to sum up:

    A trophy, Good.
    Atrophy, Bad.

  16. And there's nothing racist about Dibney World. Just ask the Elongated Man.

    No, wait. That's Dibny. No "e."

    (Why do I even know s**t like this?!?!)
