Roberts doing well in Europe...

[ballboy458]

I wanted to see how B-Rob was faring overseas so I tried to reach out to those near his camp and I guess he's doing real well. He's quickly become acclimated to being outside of the US(well he had no choice) and has also quickly adjusted to the international game.

He has played in a few pre-season tournaments in Europe (Ukraine and a few other places) winning tourney MVP in a couple of them. Every European team has American players with names that we'd all recognize, for they were all high caliber players that just missed out on the NBA, as did Roberts. I found a couple articles on his last game going up against Carlos Arroyo(Pistons, Mavs,etc). There were a few NBA "people" there and it was just a preseason tourney. Let's hope he continues his high level of play.

Good find. Thanks for that. It's nice to see roberts succeeding over there. Hopefully that can translate to ending up in the nba sometime soon.

Good for Brian. Perhaps he can stop off at the Wailing Wall the night before the first Xavier game and slip a note in saying something like: "Dear God, please give the Musketeers food poisoning tomorrow morning as that may be the only way my alma mater can beat those B******s."

Was that tongue-in-cheek?

That clip looks like Cordiero in JC playing in front of a Deveroes crowd.

I love JB but are those guys actually making money??

I know, how are they making money? There is no one in the stands.

Pay to play.
The Gym looked liked Fordham.
What are the Techno Twins (Claude and Veter) numbers.

	Fordham FORDHAM Fordham University is an independent Jesuit university established in 1841 as St. John's College on old Rose Hill Manor in the village of Fordham, then part of Westchester County in the Bronx, NY. The name Fordham is derived from the Anglo-Saxon words "ford" and "ham," meaning a wading place or ford by a settlement. Rose Hill is the name given to the site in 1787 by Robert Watts, a wealthy New York merchant, in honor of his family's ancestral home of the same name in Scotland. The College was originally staffed by diocesan clergy. The name was officially changed to Fordham University in 1907. Fordham's 10 schools enroll 14,448 students. There are 7,652 undergraduates, of whom 3,842 live in University-managed housing either on-campus or in the local community. Fellow members of the A10 Conference. Nickname is the Rams. Athletic claim to fame is consistent mediocrity in nearly all sports and few A10 title winning programs.

In B-robs pictures they were at least playing defense. Binnie looked like a pickup game - no defense and throw up a shot. If he is getting paid more power to him.

I always wondered how to spell "Roberts" in Hebrew.
