Niki accepted an invitation to the Tidy Bowl by saying:
 NS> The Lakers?  I like Shaq.
Frankly, I don't. I know that there are those that love him but as long as he 
continues to shoot free throws like he does, the Lakers will never win a 
championship.
 NS> O.k.  So Kemp is a little too aggressive. But what about Peter
 NS> Vecsey?  NBC shoulda suspended him.  I'm serios.
Let me ask you something -- if this was all so wrong then why didn't Kemp sue 
him? You will notice that Michael Irvin and Erik Williams sued the police and 
the press for what happened to them so why didn't Kemp? I think that while 
its really not that big of a deal (unless Kemp plays drunk), there was 
probably some truth to what was said.
 NS> Uh,Pippen in Seattle?  Uh-uh. No way. He may be smart and he may be
 NS> just da bomb, but Kemp and Payton have AMAZING chemistry.
The kind of chemistry that has caused them to explode in the playoffs. I'll 
take Pippen over Kemp any day (I'm not a fan of Payton, however, I respect 
him more than Kemp because he keeps his problems in the locker room). 
Pippen's only done one thing on the floor that I've disagreed with and while 
Jordan says that he might have done it differently (As if Jackson was going 
to call something for someone else with Jordan in the game), he said that he 
could see Pippen's point.
 NS> So really, why do you know all this stuff?
First of all, I'm a lot older than you and I've seen a lot more of the things 
that you might think of as "history." Second, if you want to learn more then 
buy a book like the NBA Encyclopedia -- it's very biased but it still has 
some good info.
