Four Seventeen Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Seeing Larry Hughes all dressed up for the Spurs Championship Party last night in Cleveland. All the stars were out and it was neat to see a Billiken mingle in there with the kinfolk. Seriously, if you can't play through some pain in the NBA Finals, you don't deserve to play professional basketball. Maybe all the fans in Cleveland should get tattoos of two tear drops underneath their eyes, because you were in "so much pain," that you couldn't even help your team, who pays you millions of dollars, to make that series respectable. You should be fined for not playing. You have all off-season to get surgery, rehab the foot, whatever. No one at CBC must have barked or screamed at you to get up for a big game, I take it. Character is more important than talent, Larry, and you showed your lack of courage and commitment to your team. You are a ***** for letting Daniel Gibson take your spot, and there's probably a roster in Israel that would love to have you this fall.

Quality Is Job 1 Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Maybe you'll wake up in time for the start of the Billikens first season in the "Chai," because the entire Cavaliers team (and the whole state of Ohio) have pummeled your drunk petard into a coma. Well, that's what you deserve, anyway! Heck, the Spurs probably joined in for some licks, too, just on principle. I'm sure the Spurs respect Hughes's efforts -- why can't you?

billiken_roy Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 metz, are you an idiot? the man has a torn tendon in his foot. this is the same issue that retired mark mcgwire. as to calling larry hughes a *****, i would think you calling him out as you have with one of your 4,000 names is more pussylike than trying to play basketball with a torn tendon in one's foot. btw, thanks for p!ssing off pdiddy. the most reliable source for information on the board.

slufanskip Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 His mommy is going to have to spank him again. I hope this time when he invents a new moniker that he is immediatey banned again instead of letting him stay when it was known and admitted that it was him. Made the banishment seem kind of silly. He's insulted every poster on the board, every player on the team. He regularly uses language which should be unnacceptable here and has made outright racist remarks. I am glad you guys acted quickly. Lets make sure he stays gone. He is an embarasment to SLU Official Billikens.com sponsor of H Waldman Official Sponser of the Stemmler and Ahearn could and would have helped club.

slu72 Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Hughes injury is the same that sidelined Michael Strahan of my Giants last year. I'd like to see Metzy call Strahan a ***** for not playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTIME Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 I dont like the comment about the injury, but I can live with it. Insulting the "tear drops" tattoo, I think its inexcusable. Lots of guys wear tear drops for fallen friends and family members. I assume he wears it for his brother. Everyone knows how much he loved his brother. For you to say that make light of that is just wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billiken Rich Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 A petard has nothing to do with one's back side. As a fellow student of the language I was interested in the origin of the phrase "hoist on your own petard" The following is from phrases.org.uk A petard is or rather was, as they have long since fallen out of use, a small engine of war used to blow breaches in gates or walls. They were originally metallic and bell-shaped but later cubical wooden boxes. Whatever the shape, the significant feature was that they were full of gunpowder - basically what we would now call a bomb. The device was used by the military forces of all the major European fighting nations by the 16th century. In French and English - petar or petard, and in Spanish and Italian - petardo. The dictionary maker John Florio defined them like this in 1598: "Petardo - a squib or petard of gun powder vsed to burst vp gates or doores with." The French have the word 'péter' - to fart, which it's hard to imagine is unrelated. Petar was part of the everyday language around that time, as in this rather colourful line from Zackary Coke in his work Logick, 1654: "The prayers of the Saints ascending with you, will Petarr your entrances through heavens Portcullis". Once the word is known, 'hoist by your own petard' is easy to fathom. It's nice also to have a definitive source - no less than Shakespeare, who gives the line to Hamlet (1603): "For tis the sport to have the enginer Hoist with his owne petar". Note: engineers were originally constructors of military engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonka Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Has anybody heard about the severity of this injury and was is his future like? Is this an injury he can come back from? I feel bad for the guy that he is on a team and makes the NBA finals, would have started every game and then is injured. Many players dream about playing D1 ball. Many dream about playing in the NBA. Larry got to realize that dream and then play in the NBA finals. That is great for Larry. I feel horrible he ultimately didn't really get to play in the Finals because of the injury.
