The Clipper's Curse?

I'm no fancy big city Clipper's fan mindya, but I gotta say that this news about Blake Griffin majorly sucks. I was pretty stoked to see the b-diddy, gordon, thornton, kaman, griffin lineup tear some fools up. But Griffin, who was originally only out for a few months, is shutting it down for the year. I was recently in a debate where we were trying to come up with the quintessential example of a "bummer." I of course won with the example of really really having to drop a deuce but sitting on the toilet and finding yourself to be constipated. Well I rescind my title, and acknowledge that Blake Griffin, my friends, is the true definition of a bummer. It especially sucks for a kid that has been asked about playing for a "cursed" franchise since the moment he was drafted and always took it in stride saying that the past doesn't matter....and I think he meant it. As far as the Clipper's cursed first round picks go, let's just hope that Griffin is more of the Eric Gordon, Antonio McDyess, Lamar Odom caliber and less of the Shaun Livingston, Michael Olowakandi, Chris Wilcox, Darius Miles, Yaroslav Korolev (?) etc mold.
