PBA Import

I just had to post this here.  I saw this somewhere on the net, must have been taken years ago when the cool cat[1] was still in Alaska.  It's just funny, and well photoshopped!
I guess theoretically this can probably happen, when Yao Ming's around 42, 43 years old already?

[1] Yes, I still researched that.  I know I'm not the best person to ask about PBA nicknames[2].
[2] Yes, I know I used to think that Big J was Abdul Jabbar.

The chances of Yao Ming being a PBA Import is slim as the PBA imposes height ceiling limit, though this is possible because of rule changes. Now if only PBA Teams can come up with the money.

As for the "Cool Cat" nickname, it came not from PBA but from UAAP days of Mike Cortez. Probably from Jude Turcuato (Kaboom!) himself.

Maybe we can ask Jude directly. Here's his friendster link

No need to be embarassed for mistaking Adbul Jabbar as the Big J. Anyone would have made that mistake.

When i was young my dad always made the joke that I was really lucky that I wasn't named Turcuato. I guess he found it a silly or funny name. I couldn't help but laugh when i first saw Jude's last name as he was doing his commentary on TV
