Who would you send to the Moon....

[Box and one]

I'm sure by now many of you heard about Space Adventures LTD offering you a chance to fly to the moon for 100 million on a Soyuz spacecraft.It's a 12 day trip stopping off at the Space Station and going around the moon for 3 days.[no landing]
Space Adv has already sent two tourist to space.

So I was thinking. What sports person would I like to send to the moon.Being a big time Phillie,NY Giants and Knicks fan I can think of many I would like to send to the moon.
Personalities in sports headlines today could be TO of the Eagles,Ralphie P of Balt or mabye Rodgers of the Rangers.

But if I had to pick one hmmm...
If I was a Red Sox fan maybe Bill Buckner
or any of the steriods boys..McGuire,Sosa,Bonds,etc

But if I had one I like to send to the moon...
Mitch Williams in 1993 pitching for the Phillies vs Toronto.
In game 4 he was "lite up" in.Then in game 6 with a 6-5 lead in the 9th,two out..Carter gets up.
I knew it...any real Phillie fan knew it too.Boom...Series over....I also think Fregosi could be Mitch's travelling partner since they are taking 2 up there.

So maybe you can list who you would like to see go to the moon.No political,fellow madjackers,etc
Only sports people.

 

[ferdville]

Terrell Owens - just on general principle

 

[SixFive]

Bill Walton

 

[dawgball]

1. Christian Laettner -- for hitting THE shot against UK and keeping Jamal Mashburn off the Olympic team
2. Steve Spurrier -- for periennally kicking our ass in Jacksonville

Great topic! I had Jesse Jackson buckled in and halfway there when I read "only sports people".

 

[Sun Tzu]

Tough one. I have some candidates:

Stuart Scott
Steven A Smith
Coach K
John Elway
Adrian Peterson (preferably for a launch around October 7)
Barry Bonds

 

[wareagle]

roy firestone

linda cone

bear bryant

michael jackson

OJ

zach greinke

stromile swift

 

[MadJack]

Peter Angelos, owner of the orioles. i hated the guy ever since he took over years ago. totally ruined the team.

 

[pd1]

George W. (with a one way ticket)

 

[dr. freeze]

Gotta agree with Sun:
Stephen A Smith
Stuart Scott

Not sure how these punks who cannot speak the language correctly passed 8th grade English much less got into journalism/broadcasting career

 

[Jawz]

Drew Rosenhaus
Terrell Owens (because he's a punk)
John Madden

 

[ELVIS]

jane (communist whore) fonda - and leave her there. :clap:





jaws: there would be no football wo/ john madden - nor the greatest evolving video game either - madden can go, but must return

With the NFL coming up soon i gotta vote for Joe Thiesman. I'd rather be in a dentist chair than listen to him gab.
Send his ass to the moon!

 

[kickserv]

Bob Saget

(and yes I know he's not a sport dude...but man that guy annoys the hell outta me)

 

[kickserv]

as for sports...............


hockey player Nick Antropov (he plays for my Leafs and he just sucks beyond sh**.......my grandma could go into a corner with him and come out with the puck!)

 

[BahamaMama]

sorry, can't come up with any sports guys for ya..... but when they actually LAND civilians on the moon (and have a chance of forgetting them there), i'll have a list of 5 for ya

 

[kickserv]

oh and Canadians would know this:

Bob Cole and Harry Neale...............the worst and I mean the absolute worst commentators in the history of sports.........Harry Neale misses 90% of the play (I swear he's blind) and play by play announcer Bob Cole is about 30 seconds behind the play......I mean if you think Bill Walton and Joe Theisman are bad.....you outta hear Bob Cole and Harry Neale, it is absolutely hilarious how bad these two are together..............I mean those two guys are pathetic! And I'm not making this up...there are numerous times where Harry Neale will actually say "great glove save" when the goalie stopped it with his blocker.......or "penalty coming up on New York" when in actuallity the penalty was on San Jose....it's just plain laughable...............those two guys on the moon....man that would be great!!

Luis Gonzalez
~This guy cost me a $500 winning ticket. I had Yankees to win WS future bet when NY met AZ in WS. He got the winning hit off Mariano Rivera in the 9th inning. Going into the 9th, I thought I had a winning ticket with Mariano as the closer. I think he was perfect in the post season at that pt. Or something like that. Back then $500 was a huge payday! That sucked.

The Ref in the 2002 BCS NC game
~I had Miami ML in a 3-team ML parlay 2k to win 3k against OSU. I didn't hedge because I thought it was an easy winner. OSU had 4th down and threw ball in endzone, INC Pass, I WIN! I WIN! Miami players jumping up and down. I was jumping up and down. There comes the ref running from the back of the endzone throwing his flag. What a BS call. Hate that ref!

Paul Hacket
~Horrible USC coach. What painful years that was for USC fans. Hate this guy! Offensive guru my a$$. But without him, USC wouldn't have Pete Carroll.

Ryan Killen (USC FG Kicker)
~Not only did this guy choke "every" pressure kick he ever attempted, I blame him for USC not winning a unanimous National Championship in 2003. Missed easy FG against CAL in triple OT. Hate this guy with a passion. He made ton of FG's for USC but choked "every" single pressure kick. Very painful.

Shaq
~ I hate this guy and for some reason the LA media never onced bashed this guy. Never came to camp in shape, waited to get surgery on his toe so it would be on company time (his exact quotes), always lazy on defense and never once lead the NBA in rebounding in his career (most dominating player my a$$), always saying I'll make my free throws when I have too (what BS), screaming on the court in pre-season for the owner to give him a raise (what a classless jerk), publicly badmouthing Laker owner Buss, etc etc etc. So many things to dislike about Shaq. I think I can come up with 20 legit examples to hate this guy. Get him off the planet!

Darren Driefort
~ For stealing millions from the Dodgers. This guy NEVER played. Every year got injured. Amazing. What a worthless player. I always laugh thinking about how much Dodgers have paid this dude with him hardly ever playing throughout his entire contract. This guy was paid millions to rehab every year.

Terrel Owens
~If you look at is entire contract, he is the 3rd highest paid WR in the NFL. Honor the damn contract.

ND
~For beating USC something like 13 straight years and costing USC a NC in 1988. :cursin: Send all those players and coaches to the moon. What a horrible streak! My cousin and his family are big ND fans and I had to hear about it every year (especially thanksgiving) throughout my childhood! That was tough on a kid to take. Not beating your rival. Geesh.

Last but not least............

Anybody who bashes the Pac 10! :mj07:

 

[The Judge]

Adrian Peterson (preferably for a launch around October 7)

LOL, I'm with Sun on this guy. :Yep:

I agree Theismann blows, but Paul Maguire is the worst.

I would also like to boot Al Franken. Local radio station just picked him up, and I can hardly believe my ears. This guys a friggin' nutjob.

Hillary Clinton deserves to get the boot, but I'd like to see her stay to recieve the next Demo nomination get humiliated in the election.

Trev Alberts & Steven A. Smith. These 2 windbags hurt my ears with their nonsense.

 

[RexBudler]

Send Michael Jackson and all the Catholic priest molestors
