I bet the kids are like...."Who are you?"

Boy, what a breath-of-fresh-air comment! Thanks for adding so much to the site.

I was just trying to make a joke about it. As a six year old do you really think they would have any idea who a journeyman point guard for the Jazz is by his face? Can you tell me you can pick out Milt Palacio in a room.

Yeah... that's a good one! Thanks for the explanation!! MMmmmm.... nice.

When you were six, would you have refused to get an autograph from an NBA player. Would you have thought at age six, why would I want an autograph from a journeyman point guard? Those last two statements are at about a 6 year old level. Get a clue.

Journeyman? This is his third year in the league he's played for two teams and from what I have heard they like his work ethic. Now if in five years from now he is on his sixth team I would say he is a journeyman...

Methinks someone has a bit of an inferiority complex...

I would love for you to show me where I said the kids should or would not want an autograph from McLeod. I just said they likely have no idea who he is before they are told. Pick Milt Palacio out of a group of ten black men 5-11 to 6-5.

When I was in Korea last year kids their age came up to me and asked me for an autograph. They had no clue who I was.

Agreed, i was searching for a better adjective and did not find one.

Milt the Stilt would be a journeyman. Right now he falls somewhere between College Free Agent who could surprise and Journeyman.

Journemyan still make 100 times my salary in a year.

Keith McLeod is by far a better athlete and basketball player than me. If I saw him I would ask for his autograph.

Crap like this is why I hate this site sometimes...

Thanks.

When I was a six years old in Kansas City, my Mom took me to the mall to get Dennis Leonard's autograph. A simple little autograph and ten seconds of conversation from some obscure Royals pitcher made my day. I am sure those kids were excited that an NBA starter from their hometown team was at their school signing autographs.

And for the record, a guy like Chauncey Billups has made a good living being an NBA journeyman.

Couldn't agree more...
