That would suck. Perkins has been one of my favorite players whether in Dallas, LA, Seattle, or Indiana.

I hate flying. This will not help things. I wonder if they had any survivors?

[Ronaldo McDonald]

yahoo article says 68 died and 22 survived. Guess we'll have to wait and see what happened to him.

Man, he trashed my Suns a few times, but the guy would crack me up. He'd look half asleep all the time then stick you with a 3 point dagger.

Hopefully he is ok.

[Brutalis]

Whoa I hope he's alright..

Slammin Sam?

Never heard him referred to as "Slammin Sam", but "Sleepy Sam" yah. Dude looked stoned 24/7. He never dunked unless wide open. Looks like the only thing he slammed were cheeseburgers.
