Favourite Current Raptor: Chris Bosh
Favourite All Time Raptor: Carter at the time, Bosh now
Worst All time Moments: There are too many to list. Some of the worst are the Babcock era, the Grunwald signings that crippled us financially, drafting of Camby ahead of so many studs, the drafting of Alex Radojevic in '99, Chris Jefferies in '02, Michael Bradley in '01, Hoffa in '04, Joey Graham in '05...all of which I felt at the time, not in hindsight, were disasterous picks. Owing a 2007 first round pick for freakin' Lamond Murray because we didn't pay the debt off sooner.
