I can't believe I got that wrong about Pearl Jam actually... spot on, they were going to call themselves after Blaylock. I even have a PJ t-shirt with "10" and "MOOKIE" written on the back.<BR/><BR/>Ahh, the good old days of NBA Jam. The Hawks certainly were tough to stop with the Plastic Man and the Human Highlight Film dunking all over everyone!<BR/><BR/>-- Mookiemookiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08128551629050493505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3076712139324513303.post-79214783198754974702008-09-30T03:26:00.000+01:002008-09-30T03:26:00.000+01:00Mookie, <BR/><BR/>Pearl Jam actually wanted to name their BAND, Mookie Blaylock!!<BR/><BR/>I remember we nicknamed Terry Porter "peanut" from how he looked on NBA Jam. One of my friends was a Blazers fan which was Drexler and Porter at that time. My Hawks with Dominique and Augmon used to take care of them tho. <BR/><BR/>Fingers crossed for the Bullets<BR/><BR/>Dodge<BR/>http://shootingbasketballtips.blogspot.com/Dodge Taylorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10989801682213400197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3076712139324513303.post-23169717406278850372008-09-29T15:06:00.000+01:002008-09-29T15:06:00.000+01:00Dodge, funnily enough, my parents nicknamed me mookie when I was young -- butI ended up liking Blaylock as a player after that. And then to tie it in even more after that, my favourite band, Pearl Jam almost named one of their albums after him!<BR/><BR/>You're right though, that is Terry Porter in the pic -- well spotted :) The Blazers are my favourite team.<BR/><BR/>That's a shame that the Bullets may take longer than that to get back into it... IF this new league structure comes about next year, I hope they are part of it.<BR/><BR/>Mmookiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08128551629050493505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3076712139324513303.post-55713838640813987482008-09-29T07:32:00.000+01:002008-09-29T07:32:00.000+01:00I'm confused ... your handle is Mookie, which I assume is a reference to one of my fav players Mookie Blaylock, yet your profile pic is Terry Porter?? <BR/><BR/>I know people who know people and I'm starting to think it might take more than a year to get the Bullets back in the league ... but fingers crossed sometime soon. <BR/><BR/>Dodge<BR/>http://shootingbasketballtips.blogspot.com/Dodge Taylorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10989801682213400197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3076712139324513303.post-86839050345320432342008-09-27T16:10:00.000+01:002008-09-27T16:10:00.000+01:00Thank you both for taking the time to write a comment and reading my blog.

I`m a big fan of The Alchemist and I`m surprised to see a basketball blog tie in to the work of Coelho. Altho, saying that I did read ages ago that Ray Allen`s favourite book is also The Alchemist. <BR/><BR/>Thanks also for the reference to my blog in the past and the link in your site. Greatly appreciated. <BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work with the Blog and go the Bullets (maybe next season)!<BR/><BR/>Dodge Taylor<BR/>http://shootingbasketballtips.blogspot.com/Dodge Taylorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10989801682213400197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3076712139324513303.post-67225727596307986322008-09-21T15:52:00.000+01:002008-09-21T15:52:00.000+01:00Hello!<BR/><BR/>I'm a big fan of Paulo Coelho!
