    As many of you know, I run fan sites for Robert Horry, Tony Parker and Brian Cook. Because of this, I get a number of "interesting" e-mails from people who seem to think their e-mails are going to someone other than me.

    For example, here's one I got today:
    Dear Mr. Popovich:

    I really question your objectivity when it comes to chastising your players, and also assessing which player you should be building your team around. You have to be either prejudice or blind not to see that Manu is your best player, and you should be building your team around him and not Duncan. Furthermore, I have never seen you chastise that little jock Parker; he hardly ever passes the ball and especially to Manu. He is obviously jealous of Manu's charisma and great ability. If you intend to have a championship team again, then get on the ball and use Manu as the hub around which your team should revolve. Without Manu your team stinks! Just look at what happened on Christmas day against the Pistons. If you need some advice, I'll provide it free of charge.
    Just had to share because I was laughing so hard.

    Pop should really think about bringing this guy onto the coaching staff.

    No surprises.

    But yeah, he has some valid points (about Tony - Pop doesn't bark at him as he used to) - call it a conspiracy theory.

    Go Manu!!!

    Holy crap!! The guy made valid points..plural??

    Maybe he doesn't yell at Tony as much because Tony doesn't up as much? Maybe because he's improved?????

    I thought there might be some others that would get as much of a kick out of that e-mail as I did. I bet Kori has gotten quite a collection of funny e-mails as well, the craziest ones are where some love-sick 12-year-old thinks they are writing to Tony, yikes!

    Very funny.

    Last season I used to get these emails from one gentleman in Argentina every week. They were addressed to Pop but CC'd to me, Johnny Ludden and Buck Harvey. He was always saying to Pop, "Look here, Boy" and if Manu had a good game he'd say "Now you are learning, Boy". When the Spurs would win, he'd congratulate Pop for "using my advice" and if they'd lose he'd call him "too stubborn to not use my advice". When they won the Championship, the writer of the emails took all the credit. I wonder if he got a ring.

    Its interesting to see how everyone immediately assumes this guy is Argentinian. He could just be an American with crazy man love for Manu God knows you guys have plenty of them too.

    Truth? That email doesn't reflect the majority opinion. Manu is an integral part of the team, but it's Timmy's team. I think the only truth here is that you hate Argentineans and Manu fans.

    I knew I sent those emails to Ludden and Harvey along with Pop, but I never meant for Kori to get ahold of them.

    damn, boy!

    Sorry, I don't know what came over me. I mean, we've nevereverver seen a post like that e-mail before, since the dawn of mankind. And we probably nevereverever will again, until the end of the universe.
