Re: Arron Afflalo

That's a good question. I think people underrate him because he is not a sexy pick. He's not very fast, and his name is hard to write.

I like him a lot, I just don`t think he will see much action this year. My pick for the steal of this years draft will be DJ Strawberry.

He may not see much time with the Suns either, however, I believe he will get a chance and will make the most of it.

I am not sure Affalo will get that chance.

You just proved Roscoe's second point that his name Afflalo is hard to write.

Re: Arron Afflalo

I'm going to wait for at least one preseason game before I call Afflela a steal.

If you don't like his game you can always call him Afooloh. On the other hand if he seems to catch on quick to Dr. Flip's play book then maybe you would want to call him Afeeloo.

Re: Arron Afflalo

I like calling him Double A, because that's my initials too!

Re: Arron Afflalo

I am hoping Stucky plays let alone AA.

Hunter is still around so you know he is going to get X-amt. Flip can also swing Hayes over to the guard spot and I assume Murry will still be on the team.

Its going to be tough for AA. He has to really stand out in the pre-season.

I wish there were a player on the Pistons roster that shared my initial too, but sadly they've never once signed a player who has only one name that starts with the letter L.

Another member of the AA club. You may want to bring one along when you go camping. LOL

Aardvark The aardvark (or ant bear), Orycteropus afer, is the only species in the MAMMAL family Orycteropodidae, order Tubulidentata. Its name is derived from the Afrikaans for "earth pig," and this slow, massive animal somewhat resembles a pig. It is brown to yellowish, about 150 cm (5 ft) long, with a 60-cm-long (2-ft) tail, and weighs 45 to 77 kg (100 to 170 lb). It has a narrow head and a long snout. Its ears are large and rabbitlike, and hearing is acute. The short, stout legs, partially webbed feet, and long claws are well suited for burrowing its large sleeping dens and for tearing apart mounds of the ants and termites on which it feeds with its long, sticky tongue.
