Would the Lakers really know? Why would they discuss the old man's nip/tuck?

Man, I miss the Howard trade talks. Guess I'll have to wait until October for them to start up again!

Maybe Howard's back surgery was infectious.

I don't think it's really anyone's business what the surgery was, frankly.

Jerry had to surgically repair a stress fracture in his lower arm. I heard the weight of all the championship rings he was wearing since he bought the Lakers was a bit too much for him as he got older and his body started break down.
