I never thought I would see a worst dressed draftee than Karl Malone in the 1985 NBA Draft.....
...until I saw Joakim Noah come on the stage tonight!
The bow tie might be worse than the knit tie and although Malone looked like he pulled a pair of old Dockers out of his closet and mugged a 6'11" waiter on his way to the draft, nothing compares to the Krusty the Klown Hair and the peace sign. This image will live in infamy FOREVER!!!
Please allow me to introduce myself I’m a man of wealth and taste I’ve been around for a few long years Stole many a fans soul and faith And I was round when Larry Brown Had his moment of doubt and pain Made damn sure that Isiah Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name But what’s puzzling you Is the nature of my game
I stuck around in midtown When I saw it was a time for a change Killed Van Gundy and his ministers Season ticket holders screamed in vain I owned the bank Cablevision stock sank When the draft picks raged And the draft picks stank
Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name, oh yeah Ah, what’s puzzling you Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
I watched with glee While Francis and Marbury Choked for 82 games For the contracts we gave I shouted out, Who killed the championship teams? When after all It wasn’t you, it was me
Let me please introduce myself I’m a man of wealth and taste And I drafted Balkman in 2006 another pick that was fueled in haste
Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah But what’s puzzling you Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby Just as every league has a laughingstock And an owner that screams in vain As heads is tails Just call me…Jim cause I’m in need of some restraint
So if you meet me Have some courtesy Have some sympathy, and some taste Use all your well-learned politesse Or I’ll lay your team to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name, um yeah But what’s puzzling you Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down Allan HOU-STON…Allan HOU-STON Oh yeah, get on down
My name is Frank Irizarry and I am an Assistant Professor of Communication at Suffolk University in beautiful Beantown. I teach courses in public relations. I am an avid sports fan with football being my true passion. I played two seasons of College Football for Marist College in Poughkeepsie, New York (1989-1991). My most rewarding football experience though has come in the past four years as the Head Coach for my oldest son's Pop Warner football team, the Deland Knights. This past season we were 8-1, 6-0 in our Division and we finished in third place in the Mid-Florida Conference (The SEC of youth football!) . I used to be a college debate coach so I like to make and hear what I think are good arguments.
