Ruminations from the Bench - the NCAA can't vacate my gorilla dunks!
[scene: Joey Dorsey gets the news that the NCAA might force Memphis to vacate everything from its 2007-08 basketball season]

Joey [sees story on ESPN about Memphis]: What the f--k? They want to take our whole season away? Can they do that? Where's Jesse Jackson and the dude with the weird hair to fight for our rights? This is like a violation of my civil rights or some s--t!
[pause]
Joey [no one in the room... talking to himself]: Oh, shit... are they gonna try to take away all the records of my gorilla dunks, too?!?!? Noooooo!
Shit... I better find out what's going on. That freshman better have some answers for me!
[Joey calls Derrick Rose. After the third try, Rose finally answers the phone]
Joey: Yo, freshman, what the fuck is going on?!?

Derrick Rose: Hey, fuck you Dorsey, I'm not a freshman anymore. In fact, I finally get paid more than you now. What do you want? My brother's on the other line asking about getting reimbursed for travel expenses... even though I already paid his friend for taking my SATs. Greedy bastard.
Joey: They say they may take our season away!! You remember - the year I took us to the FInal Four! Shit, we could even have won the whole thing if you could make a damn free throw. Stupid freshman. You owe me. Joey only got 2nd place poon that night. I was all ready to wear my "fuck like a champion" t-shirt that next day, too. Dammit.

Rose: How does any of this concern me, Joey? I did my time, umm, I mean my one year. Now I'm in the NBA. I'm a pro, bitch. Why should I care what happens to Memphis? That would be like you caring about the skanks you banged on the road that year. Why would you even care? Don't you get NBA-quality tail now? Quit living in the past.
Joey [missing the entire point]: Oh, shit! I didn't even think about that! If they wipe out our season, that ho from your dorm can't be tryin' to collect no child support and shit from Dorsey no mo' - cause the NCAA said it never happened! Yup, Joey's sexual record be cleaned of bitches from that year. Good thinkin' freshman. I forgot how helpful you could be...

Rose [bored]: Whatever, dude. Go call Cal and leave me out of this.
[Derrick Rose hangs up... Dorsey frantically gets Coach John Calipari on the phone]
Joey [frantic]: Yo, Coach Cal... Coach Cal!!!!!

Calipari [nervously]: Oh, no, Joseph - did they get to you, too? Just say "no comment". And promise me you won't tell anyone about that night in San Antonio before the NCAA Championship game. The girls were not particularly attractive, but they sure had a lot of "personality" if you know what I mean! Right, Joseph? Right??
Joey [giddy]: Coach, that's what I'm calling to tell you!!! Derrick Rose told me that shit doesn't count anymore! You don't have to worry about your hot-ass wife finding out about any of that!! The NCAA is about to rule that our entire year never happened! Like "poof!" bitches be gone and shit! You can safely move back to Memphis now because that girl can't file that harassment complaint against you no mo'!

Calipari [annoyed]: Joseph, that's not exactly how it is going to work.
Joey [confused]; I don't understand, Coach. Did you go and bang that girl again? Cause if you did it in the calendar year of 2009, Rose and I can't help you no more. I think that shit might still count, Coach. You might want to verify with the NCAA though. Or just call Derrick. Freshman seems to have the answers to this particular dilemma.
Calipari: Joseph....... I gotta go. Just... be safe out there. Go work hard and help the Houston Rockets.
Joey: Oh, don't worry, Coach. Now that they are taking an entire year away from me... I gotta go out and make up for lost time. I have to double my gorilla dunks next season just to make up for what the NCAA is about to take away from me! Talk to ya soon, Coach!
Calipari: *sigh*

Do you work for the FBI?
Because wiretaps are usually illegal for private citizens.
Also, Gorilla Dunks are outside of time, like unicorns or Tom Cruise’s teeth. No one can take them away.
"So do you keep open 3pt FG percentage?"
"Yeah, we'd have everything you'd want, Bill."
"I hate you."

Let's see:
Memphis commits recruiting violations, and nothing important happens.
The T-Wolves violate the CBA, and Stern destroys them for a decade.
Yes, friends, this is why the NCAA is a fucking joke.

I agree with OAL
I know the post was a joke, and I laughed, but it really is pathetic what the NCAA has become since destroying SMU

At this point Dave
I’m not sure whether your sick mind or Joey Dorsey is the genius.
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....

my favorite part
was you having Joey use the word “dilemma” after making him sound retarded the rest of the time.
I dunno why, but that in particular was hilarious, imo.

he's like an idiot savant
Joey using borderline SAT words is all part of the fun.
