The guy is always injured. The clips may have screwed themselves into being another middling nba team

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
I hope there was a tongue and cheek element to this; otherwise it is a little embarrassing for both the Clips and Griffin.

 I would have put him on a shirt with

 Sabonis
 Rick Smits
 Greg Oden
 Ralph Sampson
 Brandon Roy

 Great players that couldn't stay on the court

Does this mean the Celtics should compare Hayward to Larry Bird and to Jesus Christ?

I would ask you to explain how this could possibly be tongue in cheek, but then I would have to explain how in the world it could not be. LOL !!!

Trump has already revised the shirt and his silhouette is in place of Obama.

So he went with the repeal and replace after all. 8)

Minor edit.  If he chooses Boston, that sounds fair.  :)
