Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

At least Shaq doesn't like getting embarrassed

    I will go strike out 100 times and make 60K for a couple months work for him then.

    Shaq can actually expect to play in the NFL and be a high draft pick. That 60k will be a pittance compared to how much he can boost his salary if he spends that time actually getting better at football. A couple of months is probably almost 10% of his remaining time at UW unless he for whatever reason decides to stick around as a senior. He can't afford to give up 10% of his football training.

    Did he transfer or something?

    Dez Tru was a 1st rounder. Sark has a knack for getting guys drafted in the first round!
