The things you find when you google you...Holy crap. The things you find when you google your name. That was definately The Glove we saw on our way to the Paramount. Him and his sweet, pimped out Jeep Cherokee. What stands out most to me isn't running into Payton, but the fact that the Clippers would've stuck us with Don Maclean had they drafted Doug Christie instead of Randy Woods.
