    Diaw talking about some weird . I remember someone saying Diaw was the worst smelling player in the NBA



    Boris Diaw is prepared to take his coffee obsession to the extreme.The Wall Street Journal's Ben Cohen profiled the NBA veteran's love for coffee. It's not unusual for an adult with a hectic work schedule to enjoy a caffeinated beverage.

    Yet the new Utah Jazz big man is a special kind of coffee nut. The kind who brings an espresso machine to the Grand Canyon:

    The 34-year-old has spread his passion to teammates in Utah, not exactly a coffee haven.

    Yet he's open to trying anything, as Cohen proved at the end of his piece:
    "Diaw's next pressing need is to try some of the world's most expensive coffee. It comes from coffee beans that have been digested, and then defecated, by cats and elephants.

    'I heard about that,' Diaw said, 'and was like oh I gotta try it.'"

    Wait, shouldn't that cost less? Or not exist at all? Diaw isn't the biggest Starbucks fan, but its coffee might be a safer bet.

    The French don't put as big an emphasis on bathing as Americans. Viva la difference!

    If I worked at a Starbucks I wouldn't want to help Diaw, seems like the real anal coffee taste type especially if he plans on drinking digested coffee from animals (yuck). Folgers is good enough for me, and I love to drink coffee.

    Bustelo's pretty badass, for cheap grounds, I find. That's always my emergency stuff. Otherwise I go to my local bean roaster. That way I know the beans are fresh and he doesn't charge that much.

    He said he tried the second most expensive coffee, which is cold-brewed in used condoms, but it was just a little too tame for his tastes. But coffee straight from a cat's ass, along with some moldy cheese sounds perfect.

    LOL, low class, bourgeois tools allowing their archaic minds to bind them to the limitations of, well, low class, bourgeois trash that wouldn't know the finer things in life if it raped.

    His rep on the Spurs outside of basketball was for having super-model-like girlfriends in every city. If there was an attractive stewardess he'd have their # by the end of the flight. I think Boris is doing just fine.

    My best friend is a big-time wake boarder out there in the waters of Austin. Lake Travis, Lady Bird... those places. He saw that old boy multiple times and said he would hunt where you could see a bunch of boats were tied up and invade, like a true player. Even the guys that were there didn't mind that he was taking food off the menu, so to speak, in more than one way...

    It is meant to be very good coffee, buy absurdly expensive. It goes thought a huge cleaning process and is really a non issue. Heck, you know there are people out there that eat their umbilical cord?

    Yeah... honestly, I think it's because of the beans going through the digestion process is the subs ute for roasting, like we traditionally do, so the beans are "roasted" but the flavor is very different. They aren't roasted at all, in post harvest.

    I'm sure that it was crazy prized, back in the day, and still is now, but maybe more for posterity and arrogant reasons, than before.

    Nowadays, with all the flavoring technology we have at our employ, such a coffee is more for the purists with luxurious tastes and really... people who like to brag about having it, or having had it, because of it's rarity, exoticism and price.

    Just like wine. You can get some really good tasting wine. But some people want to drink that $300 bottle, because as listed above.
