Melo Called for Traveling



Fellow Stiff readers might find this Onion article amusing in the midst of all the serious discussion that otherwise goes on at this blog.... Link after the jump.

For anyone not familiar with The Onion, it is a satirical weekly paper. The basic premise of this article is Melo calling out league officials for calling him for TIME travelling at a crucial time in the recent loss to the Rockets. There are a few gems in there, such as this one:

The NBA claims it has always taken a hard stance on flagrant and repeat violators of the traveling-though-time rule, saying it wants to avoid a total breakdown of basketball causality as we know it. Borgia said he has evidence suggesting there are several parallel-universe NBAs, including one in which the Nuggets won 16 straight championships before moving to Luna City, a timeline in which Anthony's name figures heavily. In other alternate worlds, where time-traveling is never called, the Utah Jazz of the 1990s were led by famous married couple Karl Malone and John Stockton, who won five championships together; a great Magic Johnson/Larry Bird partnership blossomed in Atlanta; and the WNBA challenges the men's league for sports dominance.

Anyway, have a laugh and enjoy the fact that the Nuggets are off to their best start through 69 games (I think) in their history.

GO NUGGETS!!!
