Adonal Foyle: The Life, The Legacy, and the Future of Zorgon

Hey guys,

I'm sitting in a hotel right now with an extremely slow computer that won't let me open more than three windows, a very low chair, and a very high monitor (I must crane my neck). So, in other words, excuse the sloppiness.

I can't begin of what to think or say....Ever since I picked up that first copy of NBA Live '98, Adonal has been there. I watch a Warriors game, whether on the court or the bench, Adonal is there. No matter how good or bad our record gets, Adonal is there. No matter how heavily or lightly a new coach plays him, he's there.

And now....he's not.

The one constant throughout the whole time I've watched the Warriors...gone.

Gone.

I understand some of you older guys will come up and say, "I've been through three generations of players, stop crying." But the first time....it's always the hardest.

I mean, I know Adonal will get to play on the Celtics or Magic....But it's not the same. It's like seeing Patrick Ewing on the Sonics or Michael Jordan on the Wizards.

I really do hope he can win a championship, and demonstate his new 12 foot shot next to KG. I'd really like that.

As for my future as a Warriors fan...I don't know. It's hard. There's a huge part of me that just want's to say, "Screw the Warriors, go pick up a Celtics shirt and forget it all happened."

But no. I know it's not right to follow a player around and ride the Celtics to the championship. It's just wrong.

So, I'm going to be a Warriors fan. Will I start enjoying Nellie-ball? No. Will Baron Davis become my new god? No. But I will continue to cheer the Warriors on, even if it takes 50 years for me to really and truely like them again.

So, Zorgon? Who's your new big obsession?

Adonal Foyle will always be #1 to me. Whenever we play the Celtics, I'll cheer for him first and foremost, the Warriors second. Now, I want the Warriors to win, but I want Adonal to score 50 at the same time. :)

As for my new favourite Warriors player?

Probobly Kelenna Azubuike. I saw his debut against NOK and he was simply fantastic, especially for the first time playing in the NBA. I've been hooked ever since.

Will Kelenna become a new Foyle-like obsession?

No. Foyle is always #1. More or less, you'll see me become a regular (if a bit kooky, and hating of Don Nelson) GSoM member.

Your take on the Warriors' and Adonals' future?

I think the Warriors arebasically a steady boat, waiting for development this season. We could get lucky, or we could go right back to 30 some wins. But, rest assured, I'll be there all the way.

Adonal probobly has 267 years left, at least in the NBA. He will be MVP for 13 seasons straight (interrupted once by a zombie takeover) and average 77 points, 45 rebounds, 12 assists, 92 blocks, and 10 steals per game.

So why the Foyle love?

Well, its because he plays like me on the court, and I am a huge fan of his values off of the court. On the court, I fumble the ball all the time, and my only real value is post defense, rebounding, and hustle. Same for Adonal. As for off the court, Democracy Matters works to have clean elections, and get money out of politics, so it is easier for lesser known or poorer candidates to run. Its not a soup kitchen, but I am sure as hell for it.

I will close this long, sloppy rant with my thoughts on the buyout itself.

"Godd** it! F*! S*! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! C*! G*J! AAAAARGH! SH*****!!! ********************************** ********************************

Adonal Foyle will always live on in our hearts....

But in the eyes of Warriorsnation, he is now but an empty shell in the sands of time....

PS: In my poll, please value hs basketball playing abilities and his person. NOT his contract.
