Drunk Ernie Photo of the Week

Ern calls this the Raptor dance.  Very formal attire for Ernie I have to say.

well there's gold and there's gold:

sometimes you can't say anything at all.  you just sit back and soak it all in.  this is one of those times.




i told you.

Manute Bol - good for more than touching really high things.

Well it's a sad day for the world when some one of Manute Bol's size dies.  And I'm not talking about his physical stature, but the size of his contributions to the world through his humanitarian efforts and his overall presence.  Manute, best known for having more blocked shots than points in the NBA, fighting the Fridge in a boxing match, and playing minor league hockey.  Two of the three listings were to raise money for his native Sudan.  For being some one that seldom looks like they don't have a soul, I don't even want to say a bad thing about Manute.  (And trust me, the jokes are firing off in my head at an unbelievable pace)

Did Manute Bol create the phrase, "My Bad."?

Now it has been widely discussed, and some say most definitely.  Others say that it was around a decade before Bol started using it during his playing days in the late 80's.  All I'm saying, is that if he came up with the phrase, he just moved past Don Rickles into 7th place on my list of favorite people.
