Goodbye Mr. Griffin

by Exhibit G on May 20, 2009 10:03 PM PDT in Commentary

We may feel like we got screwed in the draft lottery, but let's not forget that Blake Griffin is the true victim here. An ode to Mister Griffin, to the tune of Night Ranger's "Sister Christian".

Mister Griffin
Oh the time has come
And you know that you'll be number one
To play, in L.A.
Where you going?
What you looking for?
You know those boys
Don't want to play no more with you
It's true

You're Dunleavy’ed
That’s your draft day plight
Although it just ain’t right
You'll be a Clipper, draft night

Blake you know
You'll do as you must
And mama's worrying
That you’ll be a bust
Just say, let me play
Mister Griffin
There's so much in life

Don't you give it up
Before Simmons rips you
He's cruel
He's cruel yeah

Dunleavy'ed
Is your trade price right?
Dunleavy's got you in his sight
Ruin your career, he might
Dunleavy’ed
That’s your draft day plight
Although it just ain’t right
You'll be a Clipper, draft night

Dunleavy’ed
That’s your draft day plight
Although it just ain’t right
You'll be a Clipper, draft night

Mister Griffin
Oh the time has come
And you know that you'll be number one
To play, in L.A.
But you're Dunleavy'ed
You're Dunleavy'ed

G, your creativity never ceases to amaze

Question: Is being Dunleavy’ed worse than being Natted?

Yes

Because it happens for more than 60 games.

Free Bird

That’d probably be an easy one. Don’t have to change any lyrics for long-ass guitar solos!

Surprise people

They’ve already publicly stated that they want to draft Griffin

Hold out hope

Maybe they’ll mistakenly draft his brother.

That would be the best thing ever.

Blake and his brother legally switch names the day before the draft.

I think Simmons pointed it out best

3 years from now they will have Griffin, Gordon and Davis. No Dunleavy or cap hell. You better hope for some Clipper success or they might win our lottery pick again next year.

That

Almost makes me feel better.

But its still like I just did 6 months with a new friend named ‘Bubba’ in a cell at Folsom.

So imitate the action of the tiger!.

Maybe thats why they got the 4th pick

If the Kings can blow the crap out of them, repeatedly, these guys need some serious help.

AWESOME!!!

Although, one line made me think of someone else:
