I like his zeal.  He walked right into the gE.com living room and took a piss on the carpet while we were all sitting right there on the couch and you know clams really loved that carpet too, I mean he did pick it out.

Clams is a wait and see guy.  I mean, the carpet did with the confy champy last season and that piss may not be as bad as it sounds.  With any luck, it won't smell, at least.

According to Miami head coach Jim Larrañaga, Rodriguez spent the summer trying to get to 100% as a couple of nagging injuries kept him off the court.

“One was a wrist injury, and one was a very serious tendinitis in his knee,” Larrañaga said. “When we had him visit with our trainer Wes Brown, Wes felt that it was so severe that he took him to our team doctors. They did x-rays and MRI’s, and eventually shut him down the entire summer.”

eff you, oscar Weber.  Glad Angel's somewhere he'll be taken care of.

Damn it. 

Angel should have demanded a medical redshirt this year. Then when oscar is fired in two years, Angel can play his senior season with whatever new Stud head coach is brought in.  We really should have approached Angel with this proposition. :frown:

he didn't use the tilde until he moved to miami.  btw, i found this delightful quote from him in an old article about art that everyone has already read, but maybe didn't see the quote.  which is why i dug up this thread.

Quote
Manu is adorable and will have to be aware of all the girls who are going to be interested in him,” Larrañaga said. “He is a very good-looking young man, smart and has a very mature way of approaching his schoolwork and basketball. I am very, very impressed with him as a person
