Subject: OT: Ask Bluehen
Posted by: blue hen, almighty
- Leader [27048221] Fri, Feb 08, 2002, 01:29
RecycledSpinalFluid recently brought to my attention that I had not posted anything of value on these boards lately. Even though he's right, and that's not really a change from how things were previously, I have decided to do something about it.
I can't really post about basketball. Honestly, I haven't followed this season very closely, and there are probably scores of people on these boards who know more about it than me.
However, I do know a lot of things. So here's a perfect opportunity for you. Simply respond in this thread and ask me a question. It can be about sports. It can be about music. It can be about rocket science. It can be any question you want to know the answer to. If I know the answer, I will tell you it. If not, I will make up an answer. Or I will simply ignore you.
Good luck! |

Northern Delaware, eh? Then why have the "Philly" name? Take some pride in your state. You've got two of the best sportswriters I know of, right in your backyard: Doug Lesmerises and Buddy Hurlock.

Why do they put Braille on the number pads of drive-through bank machines? How did a fool and his money GET together? What's another word for thesaurus? What do they use to ship Styrofoam? How do you know when it's time to tune your bagpipes? Why do they call it a TV set when you only get one? Is it possible to be totally partial? What do little birdies see when they get knocked unconscious?

See Mike D's answer, post 39. I'm still trying to decide between Ted Dibiase and Typhoon. I think Typhoon will score more points over the long haul, but you can't deny the cash earning capability of a guy who calls himself The Million Dollar Man.

BH,
Being from Philly i have to ask this question... when the hell do you think "Dougy" Glanville will be replaced by someone, anyone, specifically Marlon Byrd? I can't take his .260ba with no power
PhillyTom
Doesn't matter how deep their pockets get, they won't be using any of that cash BTW, memo to Eddie Wade... We're gonna need a 3b and the return of Dave Hollins is going to cut it

PhilFlyBoy, PhillyTom, Y2JS various posts
If Glanville does not improve, the Phillies will yet again have the worst offense out of their centerfielders. However, the good news is that if Glanville sucks this year, they'll bring up Byrd and ruin his career too.

That's one thing that I can't stand about the Phillies. They consistently have the best farm system, but only call up guys when injuries dictate it. IE Duckworth.

I've seen the picture of Bluen Hen dunking. It could be him if he enters. I heard there may be a late 5th entry to the contest, and Blue Hen hasn't posted in 31 minutes.
Coincidence? I think not. So, my question is, will Blue Hen donate his Slam Dunk championship winnings to the Guru, and for one year be given the label of "Slam Leader?"

Why are the Pacers interested in dealing Jalen Rose to Denver for Nick Van Exel. If this particular trade occurs, The Pacers will have Tinsley, Best, Van Exel, and Reggie Miller playing the guard spots. Why?

Because blue hen, almighty is blue hen, almighty.
Simple enough. He doesn't come here and always pimp out his games to us. Well, except for that appalachian moonshine fantasy fishing thing, but we are all allowed our occational transgressions.

Huh. I didn't know that RSF. Anyway, I just noticed that in my last post (or is it most recent?) numbered 64, I called the almighty one "Bluen Hen." Ordinarily, I'd self-edit that. However, I'm real curious as to what subliminal message that may convey. Or, what subliminal message may have been in my head when I typed it, sort of "forcing me" to type it. Maybe I was compelled.
PS: No bluen hen sighting yet tonight, I believe this is conclusive proof that he is indeed the 5th dunker in the NBA Slam Dunk Contest. Either that, or he was abducted by aliens, and is having a metal chip installed in his trapezius area, as a homing device of sorts. It may be the new way to hunt. Not sure.

Nope, not dunking this year. My dunks just haven't been the same since I changed my name fom Cedric Ceballos to Blue Hen. And I promise that Twarpy (aka Harold Miner) isn't going to participate either.
Hillbilly Delight post 65 ... Because they're the Pacers and the wouldn't win if they traded for Shaq, Duncan, and Garnett.

Hell, I don't know for sure about recroots. All I know is that Mach is going to get Tristan Dobbs because Dan is a dumbass. I'm going to get a good class, but how good remains to be seen. As for who you'll get, I'm sure it will probably suck.

Whoever was enjoying themselves by inflating the ratings (programmatically, no doubt) somehow managed to screw up some of the related files.
I managed to restore the thread title file, but did not salvage the rating file (not that I wanted to).
I'd respectfully ask whoever was doing this to cease and desist. It was amusing at first, but the novelty has worn off. Furthermore, this activity strains system resources, and magnifies the potential for related file errors.
I'm also closing this thread to avoid the potential propagation of further errors.
