Note, I was not in my Utica Wreckers jersey, but I will be tomorrow. I've offered a $10 reward to the first person who can set me up with a pic with Mr 10K. (I have already asked two people, but they never gave me an answer..)

I put up a 10k reward if someone steals his toupee and hands him a Wreckers jersey

Hey Sweep, how was the dunk contest? Was there a good crowd?
See ya tomorrow after about three hours of sleep. I am pulling an overnight tonight so I could be brain dead tomorrow when I get there.
Can you e-mail me the pics of you, me and Carter?

Was a good crowd. Chris Cayole won the dunk contest. I recorded it and will post it monday.
Once I get the camera back, I'll send you the pic.
Brain dead? So you're coming as Newman too?

HAHAHAHAHAHA.
Any takers in the 10k??? Take his wig and put a Wreckers Jersey on him and you get 10k and that means no digital edits I want this to be in the news too. You tube it real pictures. 10K.

I was at the All-Star Game today and met Joe for the first time. I was expecting the worse considering our dealings, but I actually enjoyed talking to him. In person he was pleasant, he was funny, and he was insightful. We talked for about 20-25 minutes overall and I cannot say a bad thing about the conversation.
By the way, East over the West 161-140 in a game that did not feature much defense. (Obviously)

TR, you are too much. You say to Sweep to "grow some nads and walk up and introduce yourself". Why don't you take your own advice. There have been 5 or 6 posters on the Frost Heaves Fan Website that have asked you to meet with them at the games and you seem to be afraid. You need to grow some nads!!:confused:

Ole Joe didn't wear a suit? I thought he was like David Stern the commissioner of a Basketball League? Weird. jack

Fells after talking to Joe...........
"I want an ABA franchise" "I want an ABA franchise"
Fells eyes glossy and wide open, looking straight ahead, walking like a frankenstein toward an ATM machine.
" I want an ABA franchise"
and I heard Joe say. "Renfield, get me my bank deposit ticket, now, hurry you fool."

Joe Newman generally attends games dressed much as in the photo. He always comes across very well in conversations. He is a very good salesman.
I find the photo very interesting. The commissioner of the league sitting in isolation in a nearly full arena. It seems very fitting to me.

I wouldn't call it "hypnotized". I had a conversation that was pleasant with a man whom for the most part I have only corresponded with via e-mail.
Give me some credit A1.........

I may not have gotten the pic with Joe (I did try, you can ask Chris). I did get a pic with Chichester. He saw the uniform and laughed..

By the way, I passed Joe on the stairwell. He saw me, I stopped, he put his head down and kept walking....

He tried and tried and tried but to no avail.
That is a great picture of you and Tom. You have to love the fact he appreciated the joke and was willing to take a picture.
