                My top 5 Raptors moments for sure, but I only heard this on the FAN 590 Radio, also while Chuck Swirsky commentated that dunk like if GOD dropped into our world and did a missionary in the middle of the court with a fully resurrected Marylin Monroe.

                      You say that like your surprised or its a bad thing. We old guys need a place to talk ball too you know.

                      Quite frankly and no offence to the young-ins here, but I like chattin' basketball while wearing my Depends and enjoying a nice bowl of prunes. Certainly keep me regular and spry.
                      No no! I love talking with the older guys, especially the ones who bring a lot like yourself, the moderators and so on!

                      I just never realized that this forum had a lot of older guys, I was expecting a bit more young-in's in here!

                            Major crash n' burn right here.

                            I applaud the effort though.

                            • The more I read what Reuben said actually. It makes him sound like he is part of that group from that south park episode about the confusion between cartmans group and that group of old dudes into young boys.

                                Damn that show is funny as hell, Adam is funniest IMO. And the Boss Lady, the episode when they do the acid, best one ever.
