Another excellent chapter in rookie hazing

by Micah Hart

Gary Forbes, the lesson here is, nothing you can say or do is going to get you out of having to sing Happy Birthday to Kenyon Martin. The stalling tactics do you no good, and you are only making it worse on yourself by cutting it off in the middle.

Let his mistakes be a lesson to future rookies out there — when your number is up, best to just think of your humiliation like a band-aid. One tug — right off!
