My little Brother is in the US Army, Infantry, at Fort Lewis Washington...
Evidently him and some guys from his unit are going to eat a pregame meal with the Sonics...then watch the game for free...Pretty cool of the Sonics..
I'm callin right now to request my Durrant autograph
I want a Durrant autograph too!!!
Me too. Too bad its the Sonics they have to sit through though.
just called him, they are sittin courtside at practice
:::Update:::
He just called and said that after practice earlier today, a bunch of the players came over and sit down in the bleechers and talked to them...My Brother told them that he didn't follow basketball much but that I had asked for Kevin Durrant's autograph...One of the players sitting there with him pointed on the floor and said that Kevin was the only one still shooting because he is a rookie and has to shoot extra after practice most days...They told my brother he was free to go over to the bench area and watch Kev shoot, and he did...So when Kevin got finished shooting, he came over and talked for a minute or two, and my brother told him about my request, Kevin asked him if he had anything for him to sign, and my brother told him no, since the suvineer shop wasn't open in the middle of the day...Kevin said "no problem come with me"...Took my brother back through the locker room and in to the weight room, opened a storage room full of Jerseys, and hats and such, pulled out a Sonics hat and asked if he thought I would like that one, which he said yes...Kevin laid his name across the front of it, and it will be on it's way home to me in a couple of days...
That was pretty cool of him, I never knew anything about him, I just wanted his autograph cause he looks like he coud be a great one someday...Now I guess I am inclined, and glad to be a fan of his...
Very cool. A lot of players would not have went to the trouble.
nice......thats cool of him
He said that everyplayer on the team at some point shook each one of there hands, and told them thanks for protecting this country so that guys like them could do what they do for a living, and proud to have them courtside (row 1 behind the bench)......
Very Cool
when it comes to military even the guys who are usually the biggest dicks.......arent
Very cool. No doubt.
