This is preemptive, and all I have to say is that that dude is permanently and irrevocably f*cked in the head. He cannot be trusted and is a legitimate danger to himself and others and will continue to be so until he makes it into his mid-to-late 40's when the currently unchecked strength of his emotions and the control they exert over his behavior succumb to the slow march of time. Please do not post any trade proposals to bring him to Dallas (excepting that such trade proposals be submitted in jest). If you do, I believe that you will be doing irrepairable damage to the Mavs' collective karma and that the franchise and its fans will be doomed to suffer through a curse of Cubs-ian proportions that will last well into the 22nd Century. Thank you.
