It's a classic

Phoebe and I watched a somewhat cheesy but awesome commemorative dvd of the pistons 2004 championship season recently, and one thing stood out. Even though that was only 3 seasons ago, there are only 5 current pistons who were on that team! (Billups, Hamilton, Sheed, Tayshaun, and Lindsey "I said Whaaat?" Hunter). The other 7 on the roster were Ben Wallace (Bulls), Darko Milicis (Magic), Memet Okur (Jazz), Mike James (Timberwolves), Corliss Williamson (Kings), Elden Campbell (retired) and "Dunkin" Darvin Ham, who, Wikipedia tells me, was last seen playing in the Phillipines, for a team called the Talk 'N Text Phone Pals. The other teams in the "Fiesta Conference" are equally strange-sounding sponsored teams that actually sound like they should be fantasy baseball teams in one of our leagues: San Miguel Beermen, Sta. Lucia Realtors, and the Purefoods Tender Juicy Giants. I'd love to have courtside seats for Phone Pals vs. Juicy Giants. That's not supposed to be ironic, either -- I actually mean that would be awesome!!
