Drinking my coffee and look at the cover of the newspaper. On the bottom it says " Knicks vs. Pelicans."

Who in the blue fuck are the Pelicans? I have never heard of this NBA team.

No the Utah Jazz moved from the New Orleans -- perhaps the least jazziest place in the Universe.

So you don't pay attention to basketball and yet you are surprised when you see basketball news you're not familar with?

I am right there with you. I bet there is probably about 10 teams I haven't heard of....Also basketball is stupid.

The Jazz moved to Utah in the 70's. The Hornets became the Pelicans in 2013.

Also the Dodgers and Giants are in California now, and they tore down Ebbets Field and the Polo Grounds.

If you're telling me "The Pelicans" have been in the NBA for an entire season then you are confirming my suspicion that I am in a parallel universe.

I don't think there is a white guy or black guy in the world who watched more basketball than I did 79 through mid 90s.

Then basketball started to become MTV Hip Hop and I stopped.  I was at my mom's last week and she had on the Spurs.   "Who is playing" I asked

"the Pelicans"

"What the hell is that:

New Orleans

then why not the Jazz (ala pistol pete truck robinson era).

So even when you don't keep up on something in your mind you expect to still know all the details and are surprised when you dont?

I'm sure there's a personality disorder somewhere in there.

No.

NBA players and stats, etc....I'm completely clueless. But pretty sure you couldn't surprise me with the name of a team.....prior to today.
