That soda remark's going to be really funny when he signs his first soft drink endorsement deal.

This sounds like something he made up while hanging out with his friends. Funny stuff.

My faves? "Do you want to go to college?" "Of course" "Are you a health freak?" "Sort off" Wow, who could question this young man's turning down a college education? And what high school gave him a diploma?

I would like to applaud David Stern, the NBA, and the Lakers for hiring the handicapped.

And what high school gave him a diploma? Apparently the same institution of higher learning that some of our new members have attended. BOO-YAH!!

I think it's funny. Maybe he's got a little of Shaq's humor to go along with the size.

If he flops in four years, will he still have all his friends, I wonder? Oh well. At least he has this, and so do we. We should make all draft picks do this, just for the entertainment value.

folks, the kid is 17, and it looks like he did this for fun. Give him a break. Andrew has some maturing to do, and he would have been better off at Uconn. I feel for the kid, he is going to get eaten alive by the groupies and his fellow players.
