Adrian Dantley, Patrick Ewing, Hakeem Olajuwon, Pat Riley, Cathy Rush, and (ugh) Dick Vitale were all inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame this weekend. Unfortunately, Ewing had to leave early for his induction into the Corporate Picnic Hall of Fame. Those linen shorts aren’t going to rock themselves, you know.

By wearing shorts, it’s easier for the strippers at the Gold Club to reach your scrotum. It’s basic physics.
I knew Pat Riley had a lot of clout, but sending Hyman Roth in his place to the Hall of Fame induction? Wow. That’s big time.
So, Patrick Ewing, have you tried… PANTS?

Nice brown shoes, fuckface.
Black = Tall
White = Short
Got it.
That’s like the clothing equivalent of a mullet – business up top, party down below.
Everythings comin’ up Milhouse!
Nice brown shoes, fuckface.
They’re riding boots. You know, like cowboy boots for rich people. Oh! You weren’t talking about Patrick Ewing. Sorry.
Pat Riley looks like an old lesbian.
Patrick is wearing shorts because he had already sweat through his slacks.

it was nice of their moms to dress them up for the big day.
Patrick Ewing actually did arrive in pants, but Reggie Miller stole them.
Sports Machine: Damn right, and that’s the way it’s supposed to be.
