The Suns are playing at San Antonio on March 17. All I can say is he better not show up for the game drunk as a lord!

Hey Irish, I think that you wasted too much time for a 12th man ;)

I don't think "chagrin" is the right word in the last sentence.

i agree, i think you meant "delight." unless burke doesn't really want to play in the nba.

A young Irishman sat at a pub in the New World drinking beer and conversin'
with the barkeep. Another comes in and sits besides him. He says how you do
and hears the lilt and says you be Irish? Yes I am. The first man yells
barkeep give us another round and one for my friend here he's from the mother
country as well. The second man asks-so where in the old country ye from.
Dublin responds the first. Dublin you say - so am I and the second man
hollers barkeep bring us another round and a shot of your best Irish Whiskey
for me and my friend here. Afterwards the first man asks from where in Dublin
and the second man responds with the street and the first man says well I'll
be - so am I and yells barkeep another pair of beers and Irish Whiskey for
the pair of us.
The phone behind the bar rings and the barkeep answers it. The owner of the
pub asks - how is business. The barkeep responds - not too bad -


The O'Brien twins are here getting drunk again.

As long as only one of them posts, I think I can just tolerate it.

The text is from Suns.com. I'll probably be writing original stuff when the opportunity comes up.

Why bother? There are 38 million people of Irish ancestry (direct) in the US and at least a few might be interested in how he does. If he plays at all, I expect to get pieces published in the Irish papers.

That sounds like a good plan to get published.

Maybe someday you can do a piece on Arkansas' Track Coach John McDonnell. He never gets enough press for his accomplishments.

Not Arkansas. Too close to Atlanta. :biglaugh:

Seriously, I write for various Irish publications. I expect to do a piece on Burke for the Phoenix based Desert Shamrock. I ususually write about music, but it will be a kick to write a piece on basketball for them.
