So it seems like every time I feel guilty about not getting any posts up, I turn to graphics to make you guys happy. Usually it's in the form of a desktop wallpaper, but today, thanks to a little inspiration from 4D, in the comments area of this post, it comes in the form of some good old fashioned Afro Comedy. Okay, so I don't know if there is such a thing as old-fashioned Afro Comedy, but I'm calling it Afro Comedy none the less. I figure we can make it a semi-regular series, maybe not weekly, but every now and then when the mood strikes or when things to blog about slow down a bit, we can have this series on standby. That way you'll get some new content to check out even when we are experiencing writers block or just get a bit run down from writing so many posts.
In today's episode of "Real Thunder Players, Fake Comedic Afro's" we feature one of my personal favorite Thunder players, Nick Collison. I always appreciate Nick's tremendous effort on the court, and more recently the discovery of his sense of humor, via his twitter page. I think Nick will be proud to be the first player featured in this series, and we'll do our best to make sure he sees this post by messaging him on his twitter and asking him to check out the link. Of course we urge you to do the same thing, and for those of you who aren't following Nick Collison on Twitter yet, you can find his page at this link. So are you ready? Well, make the damn jump already to view all the photochopped afro goodness!

The first three turned out pretty great.
The last one leaves a bit to be desired. Overall I think they are pretty funny. What do you guys think?

My favorite white man in my favorite sport gettin the fro treatment. Who needs the draft?
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain

I think the Thunder still do, if they want to get better. ;-)

All right, you convinced me.

Afro Comedy
His hair in the first one looks like the lion from the wizard of oz. Glad he plays with courage.
You've just been blogged by the Ebony Marshal!

That’s the most natural looking one as well. I love afro’s, I’ve always wanted to grow one like 5x the size of my head. So big that it scrapes both sides of the doorway as I walk out the door :-D

I like #2 the best
Every great afro deserves an equally great pick.

The pick is great, however, I do think he might be receiving a fine from the NBA now for having it in during play. Sorry Nick

Hah. That’s great, Mr. P. You really know how to keep us awake during the long, long offseason. :)

Just trying to give
people more reasons to come back, as well as get the site out there as much as possible. Thanks to JE Skeets for linking us and giving us more exposure, even if he doesn’t know why we’d post something like this.
Gotta have comedy. :-D

I think he is someone’s mail-order-bride gone wrong.

I'm just saying....
he’s sitting on his mom’s couch right now eating 10 pounds of bagel bites and watching Speed 3. There should be no reason he doesn’t get donned with a sick Fro.
