    You mean 30/30. We knew once Mookie turned 30 years of age, his vertical leap would be less than 30 inches. Before you know it, he'll need a ladder to pick apples.

    You can't fix short; in players or in spouses.
    "Fans have become more entitled than anything. So they're starting to question our motives for the game, or how we approach the game. The ones that do question -- like who are you? Just shut up and watch the game tonight." --Kevin Durant on players' lack of effort in regular season games.

    Not even close to trying to make a joke. I know right - 28. Can't keep them too long. What possible sense would it have made to have signed him to a long term contract?

    My 32 (at the time) year old brother married a 21 year old who asked me about my brother's age - "He is 25 isn't he?" Oh yes of course was my reply!

    Very weak. Referring to the impression, not the joke.

    I like twist ending punchlines after a proper setup, with my standar Comedy Rule of Three…

    I would have been more honest. “He’s actually 32, but if it helps, he’s very immature.”

    No, only child syndrome. That's how I was able to convince her.

    Wow. That marriage doesn't pass the half the age plus 7 test. Yikes!
