Meme time, baby!

Jeff Wong over at The Score stole the Mad Libs idea from Brett Edwards at AOL FanHouse, and who am I if not the World Greatest Copycheater?

Here’s the words you’ll need:

Player Name

noun

Write them down on a piece of scrap paper, in your Moleskine, in a notepad file, or keep track of them via a comment on the post… and then fill them in as you read.

Once again, __[URL]__ aren’t necessarily late in updating their stats since it’s only 8 in the morning, but I’m writing this post now, and their stats aren’t updated.

Line of the Night: __[Player Name]__ was surprisingly not the Line of the Night! We may not __[verb]__ him around these parts, but fellow Hornet David West (1.36) shot 58% on 24 shots, for 34 points, along with 16 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks. He was 7/7 from the __[noun]__.

Honorable Mentions: The __[adjective]__ Chris Paul (1.09) was #2 last night with his 31 points and 14 assists and 3 steals. Man, could we __[verb]__ him any more? I don’t think so. Tim Duncan (0.95) had 19, 15, and 4 blocks for 3rd on the night. He who shall not be named (even in Madlibs) (0.93) had 28, 13, and 2 blocks. (Okay, it was Carlos the Jackal). Josh Howard __[verb, past tense]__ 36 points while Dirk Nowitzki __[verb, past tense]__ on the bench. I really wanted to get down to Joakim Noah and Drew Gooden of the Bulls, but now that I’m there… I’m a little __[adverb]__ __[verb, past tense]__.

Waiver Wire Line of the Night: Travis Diener (0.59) is available in the DroppingDimes Experts League, but not in the GMTR Readers League. Whatever the case, he was #12 on the night, so I guess that’s good for __[noun]__.

The Biggest Loser: Antawn Jamison (-0.40) netted 9 points on an __[adjective]__ 23.1% from the field. He had 8 rebounds, which would be fine if it was Nick Collision or someone like that. But the expectations are little higher for Jamison.

Update on the Dance Team Bracket: By the time you read this, voting for the current matchups will probably be over, and I can guess that the Heat and the Nuggets will win their matchups. Why is that? Sapphic Photos. What does that mean? It means the girls look like they’re ready to __[verb]__ each other.

I mean, I’m sure it doesn’t hurt that their boobs look like they’re about to __[verb]__ out of their tops. But if you check the 2008 Dance Team Bracket, there’s only been a few teams that have won a matchup where the members of the other team are touching each other. And in those upsets, the touching that was captured in the photo was clearly lacking a demonstration of intent to __[verb]__.
