What does it mean when…

Just a little fun thing to do today, some of it has to do with sports, some of it doesn’t. If you only want analysis of games, skip this post. If you want something to take your mind off the weekend you have to spend with the in-laws, keep reading.

(Fun or serious answers welcome. Feel free to add your own questions. Answer as many or as few as you’d like)

What does it mean when your best friend e-mails a group of people, but yours is one of the last e-mails listed?

What does it mean when a parent calls because their kid isn’t listed in the stats leaders?

What does it mean when a team continues throwing the ball in the fourth quarter despite a big lead?

What does it mean when a basketball player slams the ball onto the floor?

What does it mean when your mother-in-law won’t eat your (or your wife’s) cooking?

What does it mean when you have Christmas music on and it’s not Thanksgiving yet?

What does it mean when you sign your name as someone else’s on the blog?

    I think this all means that you are bored and ready for the holiday Joanna. :)

  • Joanna

    Actually, what it really means is I’m swamped and trying to get everything done before the holiday.

  • vonerich

    Yeah, I know the feeling. Not only is it the holidays, but its the end of the semester for college. Which means grading papers. Not a whole lot of holiday cheer in that. Good luck with all that you got going on.

    What does it mean when a parent calls because their kid isn’t listed in the stats leaders?

    It means they are the proud parent of the next Bill Gates not Bo Jackson.

    What does it mean when a basketball player slams the ball onto the floor?

    It means the official needs to lose another 20 pounds so he can be in proper position for the block/charge call.

    What does it mean when a team continues throwing the ball in the fourth quarter despite a big lead?

    It means you’re a KC Chief fan who fell asleep on the couch after stuffing yourself on Thanksgiving. You’re awaken from your fantasy dream by Uncle Bill’s belching.

  • Joanna

    Ding, ding, ding! Dr Jay has done it. This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for playing, man.

  • Sports Fan

    What does it mean when your best friend e-mails a group of people, but yours is one of the last e-mails listed? It means they added you at the last minute in case someone else forwards it to you.

    What does it mean when a parent calls because their kid isn’t listed in the stats leaders? It means the parent needs proof for his/her bragging rights!

    What does it mean when a team continues throwing the ball in the fourth quarter despite a big lead? It means they are from BC and they are too cocky!

    What does it mean when a basketball player slams the ball onto the floor? He is sick of the city league refs.

    What does it mean when your mother-in-law won’t eat your (or your wife’s) cooking? She wouldn’t know a good meal even if Emeril cooked it!

    What does it mean when you have Christmas music on and it’s not Thanksgiving yet? It means you’ll be sick of the holidays before they get here.

    What does it mean when you sign your name as someone else’s on the blog? It means you are afraid of how your kid will get punished for your opinions.

    What is the difference between a politician and a high school coach? Absolutely nothing, they both are great at the game of politics!

    What does it mean when your mother-in-law won’t eat your cooking?It means she doesn’t know what a good plate of Mac-cheese and hot dogs tastes like!

  • Joanna

    Ha! You have a great memory, Jim. Maybe I’ll make that for the kiddos tonight. Mmmm.

  • Jim Cross

    Christmas music played before Thanksgiving, means they don’t have any good Pink Floyd CD’s

  • Kick

    What does it mean when your best friend e-mails a group of people, but yours is one of the last e-mails listed?

    The friend needed seven names or else they wouldn’t be visited by the tooth fairy.

    What does it mean when a parent calls because their kid isn’t listed in the stats leaders?

    One of two things: The name is misspelled or the parent hasn’t been at many games.

    What does it mean when a team continues throwing the ball in the fourth quarter despite a big lead?

    They’re like Circle and can’t move the ball any other way (although they’d never have a big lead…)

    What does it mean when a basketball player slams the ball onto the floor?

    It’s time to do something about that roach problem.

    What does it mean when your mother-in-law won’t eat your (or your wife’s) cooking?

    It means my wife has been cooking.

    What does it mean when you have Christmas music on and it’s not Thanksgiving yet?

    You’re too lazy to change the radio station from 105.3.

    What does it mean when you sign your name as someone else’s on the blog?

    You’re probably the type of person that would call Joanna wondering why your child isn’t on the leaderboard.

  • David

    Hey Jim, you’re 100 percent right on! I will NEVER listen to 105.3 again in Wichita! Christmas music 24/7 a week before Thanksgiving? PLEASE.

    To answer your last question, Joanna, to sign someone else’s name to a blog post means you don’t have the courage or the conviction to stand behind your own views, no matter how much you, Jonathan or someone else may disagree, or how controversial they are.
