moondog sir cc ahmaad's advantage
"I usually get my nails clipped or check out the action at the dog park." PREGAME RITUAL "I steam my cape and make sure my sweet wine hat is clean and looking sharp." "Moondog puts himself in a position where the ladies can take pictures and kiss him."
"Mostly cardio to get myself ready for the long haul of the season. I watch a lot of videotapes too, some even of basketball." PREP FOR THE SEASON "Lots of time at the gym working on my craft: posing for pictures, finding ways to make people laugh and rolling thousands of T-shirts." "CC used to wear a coat over his cape, but now it's just the cape. He likes to show off his guns."
"The pooper scooper slow clap. Nothing says, 'Let's get up and get behind the good guys' like a multipurpose scooper at center court." GO-TO HYPE MOVE "Sprinting around the court in the fourth quarter with my 'sCCream' banner. It makes the fans at The Q go crazy." Moondog. "That pooper scooper move definitely works. It always gets everybody going."
"I enjoy the intimate prom pose or making the manly men strike an old-school sorority girl pose." GO-TO FAN PHOTO MOVE "I like to show off my muscles, so getting the fans to bust a flex with me." "Moondog has the funniest moves I have seen in the league."
"When in doubt, push send — and try to keep the apology tweet to 140 characters or less." TWITTER PHILOSOPHY "In the words of Jalen Rose and David Jacoby, 'Don't get fired.' " Draw. "They're both very clever when it comes to social media."
"I am unfamiliar with this situation. The trained professionals that work as our league officials are the best and brightest in all of sports. I don't know what I would do — probably something sarcastic." REACTION TO A BAD CALL BY AN OFFICIAL "Uhh, no comment." "Moondog is right. You've got to get the refs on our side."
