It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it. Maybe next year, I'll have a contest of some sort, winner gets to be my assistant for the Orlando Magic Dancers shoot day.

Magic just re-signed Foyle: http://www.nba.com/magic/news/...gn_foyle_082709.html

Megan was crowned Miss Florida USA and will be fulfilling obligations for that. Deanna's pregnant and her and her husband are in the process of building a family. Just as a side note, all the veterans that opted to audition made the roster.

She decided to pursue other interests and not audition this time around. She could make a comeback when we head into the new arena though.

He says what could ... not a curse word.

I'm not a big ticket sales guy, so there could be more advantages than I'm pointing out here, but from talking to people around the office, here's what I know. 1) They probably would have had a player or two there, but it just happened to fall on the same week as Jameer Nelson's team unity trip. 2) The big advantage of going today is you get to select your package before others. With the extremely limited amount of tickets left, it's a much bigger advantage than in years past. You also get an in-person view of the seat, which is more accurate than any program can provide.

The Orlando Magic have been informed that the photos that appeared on MediaTakeOut.com are in fact fake and have been doctored. These are not photos of Dwight Howard. Out of respect to Howard, I removed previous thread.
