    I never thought I would share this story but...

    When we were still dating because we met online when few were doing it I went to go see her in Yorkville outside Chicago. We went into Chicago with her parents to see the city and have some fun. We went to a crowded restaurant in Chicago that was famous for its cheeseburgers and hot dogs. I was starving so I ordered one of each.  

    The burger comes in just as I ordered it with ketchup on it. There is no ketchup at the table. I looked at my hot dog and it was just a cheese dog with a little it of spicy brown mustard but not ketchup on it. I look up at the waiter and politely ask if he could bring me some ketchup to put on my hot dog. 

    The entire side of the restaurant went completely quiet. I was immediately the subject of the most angry stares I had gotten outside of playing college basketball. I look around absolutely bewildered as table after table started whispering harshly "He asked for KETCHUP for his HOT DOG!" and grown ass men and women were shaking their heads or fingers at me Dikembe style. 

    My table with my future Mrs. Sothron and her parents quickly stood up and apologized TO THE RESTAURANT and the WAITER. "Please don't get mad at him, he is from Georgia. They don't know any better down there." 

    The waiter was somewhat mollified and gave me a curt nod and said in a very angry voice "I will bring this...this SOUTHERN person a bottle of ketchup for his hot dog" and stormed off. The rest of the restaurant stopped staring and shaking their heads or fingers at me. "Go back to Georgia! We eat hunnerds and hunnerds of dogs here with no ketchup!" one very fat white guy told me before he sat back down and shook his head one last time at me.

    I look around the table as Mrs. Sothron and her parents sit back down. "Son, do not ever do that again," her dad told me and he was legit furious. "We don't eat ketchup on hot dogs. No one here does. Don't ever do that again while you are here."

    I look at my wonderful girlfriend, my future bride, expecting sympathy and some kind of explanation for what I can only describe as a hot dog cult that I had no idea existed. She reached her hand under the table and pinched the ever loving Jesus out of my leg. "Don't ever do that again. I love you but don't be an ass."

    I could only stare in shock and trying not to show how much it hurt when she pinched me I tried to make small talk. "Hunnerds and hunnerds of dogs, no ketchup here!" the fat guy shouted at me as his table got up to leave the restaurant. 

    The waiter returned, slammed the bottle of ketchup in front of me and said in an icy cold voice "I hope this ketchup was worth it, Mr. Georgia" and he flounced off before I could do anything.

    I put the ketchup on my cheese dog and relished every bite of it. I was now branded a hot dog heretic in Chicago and I could not care less. Hot dogs exist to put ketchup on them. This religious division has been the source of many battles between myself, Mrs. Sothron and her entire family ever since then. 

    When I would go back to Chicago Mrs. Sothron and her family refused to take me back to that restaurant because of the hot dog shame I brought onto their family. They took hot dogs something serious in Chicago, baby.

     Dang Soth, the reaction of those people at that restaurant was about like the KKK in the Clayton Bigsby skit on the Chapelle Show, when Chapelle's character took off his hood, LOL!

    Who s Trae's agent?

    Omar Wilkes of Klutch Sports.  Yeah I know he is in the same agency as LBJ, but I dont think Lebron really looks at Trae as a Superstar.  He passively slights Trae every time he picks his team members for the Allstar game. Furthermore, Trae has never talked about lebron being an influence in hi. Like Kobe.

    Huh? Absolutely not. CP3 wanted to go to Atlanta, he absolutely wanted the Hawks to draft him as it was the closest place to his home. Milwaukee no, Portland (then Utah) no, and he knew he would last to #5, all the mocks had him top 4, most with him going top 3. 
     

    I remember I wanted him or Marvin. Honestly I thought Marvin was destined to be Worthy and Cp to be Isiah Zeke, the latter came true minus the rings so far.

     Chris may have wanted to come to Atlanta, but I do do remember an article where his mother stated she didn't want him to go to a bad team like the Hawks.

    I really miss him and Jerome. I am not feeling these new guys. Bally must have went cheap. Jerome retired. 

    Maybe Bally didn't think Mike was a good fit with the current broadcast group (Trevor, Renee, Kelly, Lauren even Vince).  Yeah Rathbun is old but he is the play by play guy and Nique is the Hall of Famer.

    I don't know if John is referring to touches in General or getting the ball on the block. If it is the latter then he has some blame in that.  He hasn't been doing a good job lately at establishing position.  Vince was pointing out how John needs to  "sit down" more when trying to get the ball in the post to keep smaller players from going around him and stealing the ball.
