[manubili]

I used to play with a friend, Martin, who used to play with Scola as teens, who played with Manu, who played with Tim Duncan!! That's 4 steps!!!

Ok, this is a dumb-ass topic... but there's almost nothing to talk about!

I'm married to Spursy who used to hand deliver Timmy's newspapers (NY Times, USA Today, SA Buisness Journal, Barrons, etc etc).= 2 steps

I'm married to Spursy who, a few years back, replaced a grill guard on a souped up black wrangler that Timmy owned.= 2 steps

[Summers]

Can I touch Spursy? :lol It's a good thing I'm not married to him, because I'd probably find a way to get myself issued a restraining order...

And where do you live? :lol

It's probably something easy to figure out isn't it? I used to know this woman who was obsessed with a band (a musical band) and all the guys lived in the same area and she was frighteningly good at figuring out gate codes, etc, just by trying birthdays and stuff like that. (I certainly don't condone stalking!) If I were famous, I think I'd come up with a number that would seem random to the public. Like "21". :lol Just kidding.

What do you want to know? I don't know that what I know can be condensed to something that would fit in a thread. Dude is a wonderful running back, but is a great guy. That's enough for me.

[toosmallshoes]

one time the spurs airplane crashed and they all needed blood and I donated all the blood, so I'm, like, practically a spur.

I've got some semi-old school connections to Tim.

I've spent hours talking to Sean and Avery because their women were always late picking them up at Incarnate Word gym where they used to practice. I used to have a pair of autographed Sean Elliott game shoes and my friend and I had to give Avery a ride home because his future wife (Cassandra?) couldn't pick him up one day. My friend and I would ask for Avery's shoes (especially since he wore our size) but he would always comment that he didn't make the same money the other guys made and he had to wear his shoes for several games.

We met and talked to David enough times that when we saw him at Mencius, he said "Oh no, here comes trouble" and waved us over to his table so he could introduce his wife.

On older notes, (pre-Tim), Willie Anderson gave us a ride home in his convertible one day and we met Terry Cummings so many times that when we saw him at North Star Mall, he dropped and shook his head when he saw us and called us over to introduce his wife and kids. Terry autographed some shoes for my friend and he later lent them to me when we went to play basketball and I only had dress shoes with me. It was a little difficult being a size 11 and playing in 15s. Good times.

At the time, we were autograph seekers and I had over half a Skybox set autographed, and seven autographed Hoops David Robinson rookie cards (the ones where he is wearing a suit and holding his jersey). Of course, like all youngsters with collections, at some point, my parents found the card stash and decided they needed the space for something like mittens or doillies (sp?) and moved the cards to a storage shed where the Skybox set was water damaged and five of the Hoops cards were mysteriously lost.
