~( I'm sensing a New York theme : )~

 

[God's Child]

What can I say, they're my favorite team, and you can probably guess that the Nets and the 76ers are my second and third favorite teams.

 

[Scott]

A.I. is?? I never would have guessed.

 

[God's Child]

I didn't think so either, but I read it on a website. He wears crosses, and has a tattoo of praying hands on his chest.

 

[lakesider]

I think David Robinson and Moses Malone are too...

 

[Vic C.]

Here is part of the liat I put together on a different thread...

Charlie Ward
David Robinson
A.C. Green
Allan Houston
Derek Fischer
Mark Jackson
Meadowlark Lemon
Avery_Johnson
Julius_Erving
LaPhonso_Ellis

And I'm sure there are LOTS more that we forgot or don't know about.

:o :o I didn't know A I claimed to be Christian either......Ya never know~

 

[Saved-By-Jesus]

Sound like the lord is really moving on sidelines of the New York Knicks.

 

[God's Child]

Isn't Charlie Ward on the Knicks?

 

[Vic C.]

Yes he is. The best quaterback in NY...and he plays basketball!!!

 

[Scott]

I don't know Vic, I think Drew Bledsoe or Chad Pennington (even though he plays in NJ) could make a strong agrument there. : :

 

[Scott]

I will say Charlie Ward was more athletic. Unfortunately he was a Seminole and I'm a Hurricane fan so I had to root against him. :fadein:

 

[Vic C.]

LOL, well at the time Charlie was drafted into the NBA, Drew wes still in N.E. and Chad wasn't in the NFL. Though I think he would have made a better QB that Chad. Poor Chad...out for 12 weeks!

'Caines??? I'm gonna sick Bobby B. on ya! :

 

[lakesider]

I saw Lee Nailon of the Knicks play at TCU--he was awesome. Those were some good teams when Billy Tubbs was coach.

 

[Scott]

I'll give it to Bobby Bowden, he knows how to recruit kickers....

 

[Vic C.]

ROTFLMBO!
