Get Thee to a Punnery

[BD80]

...
PG:
Cat Barber 6'2" 165 out of Hampton ...

That's GOT to be one of life's most dangerous professions ...

If the kid's quick enough and brave enough for that - PG in the ACC should be a piece of cake.

Some early reports seem to indicate he has feline-like quickness.

I read where he is a tiger on defense.

You ain't lion.

[MChambers]

You ain't lion.

He's only begun to scratch the surface.

[BD80]

I prefer to envision Mr Barber slicing up the opposition

We need to nip this now...

Some act as if we are clawing at the post on the issue.

I heard that he "ballou" by the other PG's in his class

(for all you youngster's, google 1965 Oscar and Lee Marvin)

Glad to see we are not tip-toeing around his prospects.

Not to throw a hissy fit, but these puns are ridiculous.

Lashes from a cat-o-nine-tails for the next person who posts a pun in this thread.

Awe, come on, don't be such a puss.... in boots!

[BD80]

You know I'd join in, but the cat's got my tongue.

[OldPhiKap]

Hope he ain't a cheetah.

Can someone post some lynx to his videos?

[oldnavy]

I feel like I am coming down with 'scratch fever' myself....

[mkline09]

This kid probably sings 'If I were King of the Forrressssst' in the shower.2599

[Mtn.Devil.91.92.01.10.15]

Hope he follows NCAA regs to the litter of the law

[Dr. Rosenrosen]

Wherever he ends up going, I'm sure he'll land on his feet.

[miramar]

but this is purrrfectly ridiculous.

Lots of good ones in this thread, but these are really the cat's pajamas!

[Indoor66]

And Punnery rhymes with Nunnery and you know that that means? Get thee to a Brothel.

Is "nunnery" a euphemism for a brothel in Hamlet? (http://www.shakespeare-online.com/faq/hamletfaq.html)
"It is true that "nunnery" had two very different meanings in Tudor England. Modern dictionaries only list one definition of the word, which is, of course, a convent. However, if you look up "nunnery" in a dictionary of archaic words and uses, you will see that "nunnery" did mean both a convent and a brothel in Shakespeare's day. Its meaning as a "brothel" was colloquial, though, even in Tudor England."

[Big Pappa]

I read that as a kid he used to play in the sand with former Duke commit Carrick Felix.

[Duke_92]

I'm in a catatonic state after reading all of those.

[Edouble]

I'm hearing whiskers that he might red shirt.

[-jk]

Hmm... An oddly curious thread.

Arggh. Mff. Ack. <thud>

[-jk]

Well, that's that. Gratifying.

[Mtn.Devil.91.92.01.10.15]

Well, that's that. Gratifying.

Next season's tip off is fur away

[DukieInKansas]

All this puns are beginning to rub me the wrong way. They've gone to fur.

[Wheat/"/"/"]

This thread is littered with posters thinking outside the box.

[Reilly]

If this guy gets a Duke offer, he'll be sitting in the catbird seat ....

[Dukehky]

I want him to commit to Duke right meow.

[riddle me this]

This thread is a catastrophe. Fur real though, you have to be kitten me.

[oldnavy]

Too bad Kelvin Sampson isn't still around, I am sure he would love to make some cat calls...

[BD80]

In a potentially catastrophic turn of events, wildcat coach calico-pari appears to be sticking a sticky (stinky?) paw into this recruiting catcophony to burgle Mr. Barber. With his ubiquitous "cat-who-ate-the-canary" grin, he played his familiar cat-and-mouse game with the press, refusing to categorically deny his interest, claiming that uk is in the catbird seat: "with us recruiting is just a cat-tle call, the top 100 show up and NBA scouts tell me which ones they want me to play." When asked if Mr Barber would play immediately, coach cal replied: "we'll hand him the keys the moment he signs ..., of course, EVERY recruit gets keys to a new Jaguar when they sign."

Can cal cat-nap Mr Barber?

[OldPhiKap]

Arggh. Mff. Ack. <thud>

-jk = Bill the Cat?

So, he was really talking about a cathouse?

[Mike Corey]

Roy Williams is doing some negative recruiting, told Cat our coeds were a bunch of dogs.

Coach Collins heard about this, flipped Roy the bird.

[jacone21]

I heard that, in his most recent game, he came up one life short of a triple double.

[DevilWearsPrada]

Reading all of this, I think I have come down with Cat Scratch Fever. It really makes me as Nervous as a Cheshire Cat sitting up in a tree!


I love all of your quotes! Its really the Cat's Meow!

[oldnavy]

I wonder if the pressure makes Cat feel like he is on a "hot tin roof"...

Also, do you thin he catapults up the rankings if he chooses Duke like some recrutis have?


P.s. Please close this thread, I feel like I have wasted about 3 of my 9 lives on this! :)

[OldPhiKap]

We shouldn't close the thread. We should pin it to the top of the page with a little tabby.

[Reilly]

I hope Cat's not concentrating so much on hoops that he's ignorning his high school social life: "Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody ...."

[Jderf]

We shouldn't close the thread. We should pin it to the top of the page with a little tabby.

I've found that, with cats, the best way to use a thread is to dangle in front of them and watch them go crazy. Or is that some other kind of thread? I get confused sometimes.

[devildeac]

Y'all must be kittying me that this thread has endured this long...

Or have we reached the tail end of it.

[MCFinARL]

Is it really appropriate for us to continue a thread that is this catological?

[Indoor66]

You are doggone right we should.

[Mike Corey]

I guess we'll see this thread in another life, when we are all cats.

[MCFinARL]

Don't want to be dogmatic about it, but if I have to live my next life as a cat, that would be catastrophic.

[Indoor66]

I would become catatonic.

Nothing a catscan couldn't fix.

[devildeac]

Nothing a catscan couldn't fix.

If we're going to start raining cats AND dogs in this thread, we'll need a PET scan instead of a CAT scan.

[oldnavy]

This thread is making me sleepy, I think I will take a cat nap then take off for Katmando.

[hurleyfor3]

These puns hurt. Me: Ow.

[oldnavy]

Lets get this Cat in the cradle, with the rest of the kids with a silver spoon...

[MChambers]

Lets get this Cat in the cradle, with the rest of the kids with a silver spoon...

I predict a cataclysm.

[Meal Jar]

Don't worry about offending Cat with all these puns. No matter what happens to him, I'm sure he'll land on his feet. (Paws for laughter)

[With 10:13 left in the second half, a very foul odor settles over the basketball court. Furious, the coach calls a timeout. As the team heads towards the bench, Coach is staring darts through Cat Barber]

"SPREAD the offense! I said SPREAD!"

"Sorry coach, thought you said SPRAY."

-Meal Jar

[Meal Jar]

So Cat Barber comes back to his dorm after practice to find his girlfriend weeping incessantly and uncontrollably on the couch.

"What is it Patches," he inquires.

"You don't see it," she retorted with a hurt-filled meow. "All over the campus. Everywhere! The signs. Oh how could you come to this awful place Cat!?

"What? Signs? What signs!?"

Patches reached to floor with her paw to grab a wadded up piece of paper - what was left of a sign on campus. Cat reached down and unfurled the meshed paper.

"NO LITTERING."

"Oh," gasped Cat.

"You bastard," she meowed.

Later that day, his girlfriend is commiserating with a classmate.

"I didn't get any sleep last night," she sighed. "My boyfriend's team was on a road trip, and it seemed like all of the rodents in the building came down to my room. They all pulled out teeny, tiny musical instruments and jammed until dawn."

"That's incredible," gasped the classmate. "Have you ever seen anything like that before?"

"Happens all the time," replied the girlfriend. "When the Cat's away, the mice will play."

[chrishoke]

No, "Spray." Have you never heard of this?

I knew you meant spray, I was just stupidly adding my own.:D

I heard he had dreams of success; and wants to cram his trophy case with awards, even if he has to put some catercorner.

But then his ranking slipped a little, so he's clawing his way back.
