A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum
Ok, actually it was when I was on my way to the library. But first, some background.
A few weeks ago a friend from church gave me a copy of NBA Live 2005, a game for the computer, which happens to be awesome. Though I haven't been able to watch any Pistons games yet this season, I can simulate some NBA action on the PC. Allison and I were doing this one night when she decided that it would be funny to write a letter to the Pistons on my behalf (a la Letters from a Nut--remembering giving me that book, Kathy?). So she wrote it and sent it.
Lo and behold, the Pistons responded with alarming speed:
They included a letter that mentioned Darko:
And a bunch of stickers, basketball cards, schedules, and a picture!
What an organization! Go Pistons!!!

Sweet. I just told all the Piston fans at work. Al, what did your letter say?
This is hilarious! Al, you are such a nice wife to pen a fan letter to someone other than the New Kids on the Block =)
Very funny! I always knew that Joe Dumars was a good guy - and he can sure run an organization too! (He's my all-time favorite NBA player, by the way). Do you think they might send me something if I wrote them? THere is little pistons coverage in Columbus ohio. People 'round here hate all things Michigan.
Eric-
You heard the man...GO TO WORK!! You guys are so lucky. I tried to approach Darko for an autograph and all he did was stare blankly at the paper...he was just too tall.
K-ROK
Well, Darko IS really tall. But you're also a lot older than he. So maybe he was intimidated.
