Under R.Horry it says DNP-Old age! usually it says coaches decision when a plalyer didn't play. That was funny! I wonder how it got on there?!

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

That's too damn funny.

[Horry For 3!]

I wonder who put that lol

[Sacramental]

just a hacker with no life.

[ShoogarBear]

I'm guess the Spurs are obligated to give an official pregame report to the league with the status of all players on the roster. And I'm guessing somebody on the team got their hands on that report.

[jaespur21]

However, I just emailed Yahoo! about that

[sabar]

Aw don't e-mail Yahoo!, I e-mailed the page link to the Express-News, I want to see a note and explanations in the paper tomarrow :D

[themvp]

:rollin

[Sacramental]

whats even funnier is the warriors getting owned by 37 pts.

[sprrs]

:lol I wouldn't be suprised if Brent is the one behind that.

[phyzik]

Im positive Brent, Bruce or Sean Elliott had something to do with this, LOL

However, I just emailed Yahoo! about that

If you really emailed Yahoo about it you're a bigger puss than I thought.

[SilverPlayer]

What does Yahoo need to change about it? It's funny because it's true, but it is true.

[phyzik]

someone needs to e-mail Ludden about this, Im dying to know who put Yahoo up to it! :lol

[lefty]

I'm the biggest puss

Don't be so hard on yourself

[boutons_]

"who put Yahoo up to it!"

Yahoo publishes what the NBA scorekeeper's officially release.
Yahoo doesn't change the content, or add original content. I'm sure the people who are responsible for "old age!" (or correcting it if it's a yahoo-sourced joke) have been told about it and have done nothing to change it beause it's not their content to change.

NBA.com box scores publishes only "DNP", with no reason.

ESPN doesn't publish stat lines for players who DNP.

[mqywaaah]

Man, this cracked everybody up over at the Mavs board. Did he really not play due to the said reason? Im sorry but this is just really funny.

[mqywaaah]

I got a theory...

ESPN is pro Spurs
Yahoo is the anti.

[LilMissSPURfect]

ROHO just getting his rest!


funny nevertheless

[angel_luv]

That Rob DNP is hilarious. :lol

[angel_luv]

Gino's a trickster. He should be a suspect too.
Maybe even Pop. :lol

[angel_luv]

P.j.?

[Hoopy Dunkalot]

This is not the first time they punk'd someone - check out why Jason Richardson sat out...
Funny shit... (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore?gid=2007010203)

[Trainwreck2100]

:rolleyes

[Agloco]

Man, this cracked everybody up over at the Mavs board. Did he really not play due to the said reason? Im sorry but this is just really funny.


Everyone seems to forget that Pop and Horry have an agreement about playing on the second night of back to backs.......


He doesn't play.

So what's the reason he doesn't play? It isn't a "DNP-coaches decision".

It's his age....... That was the genesis for the agreement in the first place.

The description is accurate. Funny, but accurate.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

And to agree with AHF and most of the rest of the board, lefty, to quote Hamlet:

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks."

It was really funny, so you write and complain so they'll end up taking it down? WTF? Somehow I don't think Horry would have been offended by that ... he has a sense of humor.

If you really have a problem with that, I don't know which I should do - feel sorry for you for being such a vagina, or take up a fund here at ST so we can get you a hooker and get you laid, because you obviously need it.

This thing is fucking hilarious and the fact that you went on the rag and whined to Yahoo! about it shows what a pussy you are.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I'm a retard? I'm not the one who emailed Yahoo! about a practical joke in a box score.

[lefty]

I'm a retard? I'm not the one who emailed Yahoo! about a practical joke in a box score.

I'll have a problem with it if some editor decides to change it because your pansy ass emailed them.

Just sit back and enjoy the humor, damn.

Way to go for ruining it, it doesnt matter if you told them it was funny or not, they were going to change as soon as you brought it to their attention.

[lefty]

So what? it's the end of the world ????

Plus, somebody was going to tell them anyway.

[shelshor]

Im positive Brent, Bruce or Sean Elliott had something to do with this, LOL
With his sense of humor, I can see Tim doing it too and staying totally straight faced about it

[Das Texan]

what a fucking douchebag that lefty is.

[mardigan]

So what? it's the end of the world ????

Plus, somebody was going to tell them anyway.
No its not the end of the world, but I would have liked to see it on the website, and it could have still been up there without the letter. But oh well, I really dont care

[lefty]

what a fucking douchebag that lefty is.

Jackass.

:downspin: :downspin:

[nsrammstein]

Thanks to idiots like lefty, Yahoo is going to think twice about pulling practical jokes like this one again. way to go putz.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

lefty shouldn't even be here. April something or other.

This is a guy who refused to believe taking $7M of cap room and an extra draft pick for the fourth-string PG was a good thing for Dallas.

[cheguevara]

that was funny.... until lefty ruined it. please ban him til next season.


check out Artest's DNP - beat wife

The description is accurate. Funny, but accurate.

Except for he's actually injured this time. So it's not really accurate. But it was funny nonetheless.

Vex and Walter are talking about this on STSA

Not really, actually I was in the game blog last night eh


I THINK SHOOG MEANS WALLY AND VEX :lol

Yeah, I meant STSA. :lol

[jmard5]

While browsing through NBA Fantasy news, even today's edition of Rotoworld mentioned this:

San Antonio Spurs

Well, it's official: Robert Horry is old. Out with a strained muscle last night, Yahoo! took the opportunity to poke fun at 36-year-old Big Shot Rob. Someone there has a sense of humor. Michael Finley, struggling through the lowest-scoring season of his career, caught some lightning in a bottle last night on his way to tying a season-high with 20 points in 20 minutes.

http://www.rotoworld.com/Content/features/column.aspx?sport=NBA&columnid=45&articleid=27981

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

lefty should be banned for the rest of the year for getting that changed. Fucking jackass :td

[Spurminator]

:lol

Do you guys really think Lefty was the only person who emailed them?

Hell, I'm inclined to think he didn't even email them and he's just pulling your legs.

[ShoogarBear]

http://sports.yahoo.com/Horry/mistake/thanks.html


Thanks to eagle-eyed reader "Lefty" from San Antonio for being the only one to point out our egregious mistake on the posted reason for Robert Horry's DNP the other night. The next time something like this happens, we promise that we will prosecute fully the disseminator of misinformation under the provisions of the Patriot Act.

[polandprzem]

lefty vs aggie

what a lightweight fight

[wildbill2u]

Pop's got a wicked sense of humor too!

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

:lol

No, but lefty kind of brings it on himself.

[Roxsfan]

that was great. :spin

Pop and his antics...

[Seventyniner]

Almost 5 years later to the day. Last time this happened, the Spurs won the title. Just sayin'

[Phenomanul]

Lefty being Lefty.
