Talk about making lemonade out of lemons.

RE: Operation "Divine Wind"

Dear Eric,

It was nice meeting with you. Some day you will need to teach us how to make those cool animated transitions in PowerPoint. The dancing banana dude singing "Peanutbutter Jelly Time" on slide 24 really sold it.

Are you a gambling man, Eric? We are, and our newest game is the lottery. That said, you know what you need to do. We like the idea on slide 18 of reading aloud from the collected works of Sylvia Plath in the locker room during half time. That should really take the energy level down a few notches going into the third quarter. Also, no substitution is too strange or disruptive. Get creative. Thomas at Point Guard? Douby at Center? The combinations are endless. Find a reason and make it stick. Worst case, if we're leading with two minutes to go, call the time out, and reenforce the importance to the boys of man-on-man play. Ask them, "how many posters or Nike ads have you ever seen of a player assisting or passing?" Let the Bushido code of the Kamikazee inspire you.

Also, as a side note, we don't care what you have to tell his agent, but do not play the one called Hart. He is the Chosen One, and his destiny lies along a different path from ours. You must protect him. No harm or injury must come to him, for the future of all mankind rests in his survival. All will be revealed.

Carry on.

I can only hope that Jason Hart's secret quest is to retrieve our second round pick.

That is the funniest thing I have read in a long time. What a post!

He and Pot can go on their quest together! You know, something like this:

Every other team's GM: Who goes there?
Jason: It is I, Jason, son of Uther Pendragon, from the castle of Camelot. King of the Britons, defeater of the Saxons, Sovereign of all England!
[URL="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001589/"]Every other team's GM[/URL]: Pull the other one!
Jason: I am, and this is my trusty servant Vitaly. We have ridden the length and breadth of the land in search of knights who will join me in my court at Camelot. I must speak with your lord and master.
