Unique "Did Not Play" note

Fri Apr 06, 2007 4:16 pm

Just when you think you've heard all the jabs at Robert Horry ribbing him about his age, along comes the Suns/Spurs boxscore for April 5th, 2007.

I can't wait to see any DNP entries for Kevin Willis.

Fri Apr 06, 2007 4:23 pm

It also happened in the Spurs and Warriors game.

Found this at another forum.

Someone must really hate Horry. :lol: :shock:

I don't know what's funnier, the fact that James "Flight" White got playing time from Popovich or Robert Horry's reason for why he DNP.


NEWB.

ALREADY BEEN POSTED!!!! BAN THIS FOOL! :lol:

Two times already. :lol:
Brent Barry must have been bribing a lot of guys to have it in the records. :lol:

haha this is classic.

Kevin Willis was spared in the boxscores for today's Mavs/Nuggets game. Looks like they're only interested in picking on Horry. ;)

Sat Apr 07, 2007 11:23 pm

Maybe Popovich and Duncan are part of the prank too. :lol:

:shock: I missed that. 14 minutes! I <3 Popovich!

Sun Apr 08, 2007 2:16 pm

I missed that as well. He played nine minutes against the Warriors today as well, though Horry was spared any further shots at his age.

Sun Apr 08, 2007 2:38 pm

Haha is that for real? that has to be photoshopped.

Sun Apr 08, 2007 7:30 pm

go to the yahoo link. I thought so too.

it's legit both of them are.

They've yet to change it on either boxscore. I guess it's their story and they're sticking to it.

Tue Apr 10, 2007 8:56 am

I don't know if it's photoshopped or not but I found one for Jason Richardson during a game last January.
Probably a typo:

It's legit. Probably a mistake but given the Robert Horry situaion, I guess you never know.

Tue Apr 10, 2007 9:27 pm

Maybe mutombo is the one responsible for this...

Tue Apr 10, 2007 11:34 pm

there's probably a limited number of characters you can enter when they type in the DNP reason and they ran out of room for Richardson.

Wed Apr 11, 2007 8:18 pm

The name "Jason Richardson" takes up sixteen characters including the space, the same number as "Coach's Decision" and fewer than some of the listed injuries, such as "Right Shoulder Cont(usion)". Assuming the presence of a Yahoo! Sports employee looking to inject some humour into the boxscores is nothing but a paranoid fantasy, I'd say the Richardson mistake is just an oversight.

Sat Apr 14, 2007 8:01 pm

What does this mean? For Josh Smith?

Picture link.

Sat Apr 14, 2007 8:15 pm

I'd say it's an abbreviation for "Not With Team", in this case owing to his suspension.

Sun Apr 15, 2007 3:12 pm

LaMarcus Alridge is the latest player to receive special attention in the boxscore for today's Sonics/Blazers game. Something definitely amiss with Yahoo! Sports as of late.

Sun Apr 15, 2007 3:29 pm

they're on that bin laden weed.

Sun Apr 15, 2007 3:47 pm

Wow, too many pranks on that "Did not play" note

Sun Apr 15, 2007 9:21 pm

lamarcus has a heart condition thats the name of that disease....he's kinda like curry

Mon Apr 16, 2007 4:10 am

hmm "Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome"
