Get Well Soon, Hedo

[ploto]

Magic forward Hedo Turkoglu will be sidelined for at least another three days because of the lingering and puzzling flu-like symptoms that continue to plague him. The Magic have sent him for blood tests in hopes of determining the cause of the problem.

Poor guy! I'll pray for him. :)

Feel better Hedo. :)

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Leave it to angel to have compassion for everybody.

[angel_luv]

:) How nice!

And actually, Hedo is one of my favorites. :)

Better start smiling or I'll be forced to try and cheer you up. :D

[Bob Lanier]

It's probably cancer.

He strained himself reaching for an errant pass.

[angel_luv]

Thanks GIG. I really hope all is okay. :)

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Guys, this isnt funny. One of my best friend's is Hedo's cousin. I will ask her today and let you know.

As opposed to everything else?

So what is the cutting off point for humor with breakfast taco-loving ex-Spurs?

[E20]

I wonder if it is because of fasting or is Hedo not Muslim?

Good question. I thought he was, but I don't know for sure.

Damn.... were Alfrederick Hughes, Steve Smith, and Paul Pressey some of your favorites too?

I doubt it. One of my friends was a very close friend of Hedo's in Turkey (back before he became a primma donna millionaire), and from everything he's told me about Ms. Man-Purse, there's no way in hell he would ever have the discilpine for that.

Well, the breakfast tacos can't be as good in Orlando as they are in SA.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

I just talked to my friend. She said that Hedo ate some Mexican food before a game and hasnt felt the same since. She also doesnt think it is that serious. Hopefully she is right.

Damn the Cowboys for making me carry this sig and not that one.

It's all funny until it's someone you know (sort of). Hypo.

Thanks for the update.

Yes he's Muslim.

Maybe Allah is punishing him for eating Mexican food during the time he's supposed to be fasting for Ramadan :)

[baseline bum]

Hedo got sand in his vagina again I'm guessing?

[z0sa]

i wish theyd bring hedo back if it was possible...

[FromWayDowntown]

Hope it's truly nothing bad.

[baseline bum]

What the fuck would the Spurs want to bring that bitch back for? He was the major weak point in a 2004 Spurs team that should have easily taken the title.

So Beno looks better by comparison?

[Obstructed_View]

Damn, you beat me to it. Maybe he watched Kobe on TV and his throat tightened up.

[spurschick]

ESPN reports that it's been something that's been bothering him off and on since last year. Sounds a bit more serious than eating some bad food.

Yeah I heard that too.

Maybe GiG's source isn't too reliable :lol

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

I was really hoping it was because the Mexican food smack would have just been too fun. People could get some Mexican food at the concession stand and just hold it up to Hedo as he ran down the court.

spurschick, that's on you to pull that off this season, okay.

[ploto]

I'm hoping he hasn't developed something like colitis. GI problems can be really hard to decipher- if that is where it is coming from.

[trueD]

Yeah I heard that too.

It was reported on our local sports station--he had boughts of this same kind of sickness last year. He gets very hard chills and throws up lots. It doesn't look good. :depressed

Hedo was part of our deep 2001-2003 bench, one of the crowd favs. He is still very close with Peja and Vlade.

[baseline bum]

Maybe he's just a fatass.

[Kori Ellis]

Hedo had been feeling funny after some mexican food before a game.
I still question why he'd be eating during the day during Ramadan. I doubt he would.

Magic small forward Hedo Turkoglu has a mystery illness and will miss the team's preseason opener Tuesday night.

Turkoglu has experienced flu-like symptons, including violent chills, dating back to last year. He has suffered two bouts in training camp and will undergo tests to try to find the root of the problem.

"I'm going to get some blood tests, and I have to rest three days and then get some urine tests," Turkoglu told reporters. "I'm just curious why it's happening."

Turkoglu averaged a career-best 14.9 points and 2.8 assists in 78 games last season for the Magic in his second season in Orlando. Turkoglu also has played for Sacramento and San Antonio in his six-year career.

From Hedo's chat today:

Mike(St. Augustine): What is your mystery illness? Is it serious? Will it keep you out for the regular season? I hope not you're the reason I got season tickets.

Hedo Turkoglu: Actually, I've been feeling better the past few days. I don't know what the illness is, but I'm waiting for the doctors to tell me the results of a group of tests I've just had. I hope it's good news, that it's not anything serious, and that I can get back out on the court as soon as possible.


Hedo Turkoglu: I want to let eveyone know that I hope my illness isn't serious. In a few days or a week I hope to be back on the court. Thank you all for supporting me over the years, it's greatly appreciated. God Bless You All and I'll see you at the games.

Maybe GiG's source isn't too reliable :lol

GiG thinks he knows the cousin/uncle/distant-relative
of most professional athletes..

The first one is Hedo and my friend after a game in his hotel room. The second is of me and her. Fuck you.

I'm flattered you took your time to make this post.

[Sense]

Anything to make you shut the fuck up and eat your own words.

Just cuz you got this right don't mean all the shit that comes out of your mouth is true.

[angel_luv]

That is a really cute picture of Hedo with his cousin. She's a pretty girl. :)

Pardon the interruption. Go back to arguing if you must. :lol

[jman3000]

she must be pretty damn tall 6ish?

[jman3000]

either way... she's hot.

[Trainwreck2100]

Wait, so GiG banged some chick that banged Hedo, if we are to believe those AIDS commercials on TV doesn't that mean that GiG has banged Hedo?

[Obstructed_View]

either way... she's hot.
Ditto. My condolences GiG for ending up in the friend zone with her.

[jman3000]

:downspin: for her not having his nose :downspin:

[jman3000]

even better.
