Tomorrow's sim I have no clue what time, so if you want to make a draft list, do it asap

Had Jesus "Has" Risen as my top choice, but Brett's son will suffice. Can't teach size, right?

Ugh....what a blasphemous name. What are the odds of that.

Lord have mercy  :hail:

Devil's program.

We oughta just change it

I'm not religious so I'm not offended by having a 'Jesus Risen' on my team. But if other people feel uncomfortbale about it I wouldn't have a problem with a change - maybe making his last name 'Rison'?.

I think Nets actually PM'd the commish about changing his first name to Joseph.

Haha..this is hillarious

Well, crap again. I was sure that I'd be able to scoop Favre (a local New Jersey boy for those who are curious) at #5.....but Jacobson will have to do - tho I'n not going to bother to check, I seem to recall that they are exactly the same guy. As good a gamble as any in the second round I suppose.

And yeah, I suggested Joseph instead of Jesus the last draft segment thread. That is quite the randomism....

c'mon guys, that's ridiculous.
Jesus isn't some sort of "holy protected trademark" it's an ordinary name as well, plus an attribute of greatness.

Or otherwise i will refer to Larry Bird as the Basketball JOSEPH from now on !
 :hail:

btw, I'm sure HE wouldn't mind to share his name with a basketball player, since tolerance was one of his primary goals ...

Now you see why i gave you that pick for free. I don't want any part of that curse and devils worship on my team. :wink:

In catholic circles, Tom, that is quite the coincidence. Yes, Jesus is a common name....but Jesus Risen, an easy reference to Christ's resurrection, is not. Don't know how much you know about Catholicism, but we're a guilt ridden lot and live in fear of eternal damnation when breaking commandments. It's our lot in life - and little things like that shake at our god-fearing existence - because, you never know, God might be checking the boards. And theres all that about worshiping false idols and so on and so forth....  :bods: :lol:
A little tongue in cheek there, but IMO, as a god fearing catholic, this sort of thing gets my attention in some way. Just before easter? It's weird, and coincidental, and makes me go "hmmmm".
And forgive me father for I have sinned, but I did have him listed on my draft list :lol: His defence was just too good to not consider selecting him. 

Yeah, i agree with the Nets here. Jesus is/was a common name but Jesus "has" Risen could be considered as offensive for any christian beliver.

Also, i'm kinda psycho when it comes to this stuff. I belive in omens, sings and all that shit, this is definitely weird. I don't belive it's a coincidence, not sayin it isn't but...it's pretty odd.



Dude you just sold your soul to Devil over a B- defender!! :)

Blasphemy! Jesus is a B defender!  :hail:

It was probably just a joke by the guy who created the game :)

Testify!
