The Story:
----------------------------------------------------
It's a warm sunny morning in july, i wake up, take a nice cold shower, drink a nice cup of folgers coffee, and i'm off to work. I get out of my house, start my silver honda accord, and pick up the New Jersey Star Ledger on the front lawn. I hop into my car thinking to myself what new events have occured in this boring life. as i skim through the text i see numerous headlines such as"What do we expect of John Kerry?" and "More troops to Iraq?". Finally i reach the sports section and the front page leaves my mind in shock. i just couldn't believe my eyes when i read it:"New Jersey Net Kenyon Martin traded for three draft picks?" All i could say in my mind was, 'this is a joke, right?' 'Ok' I thought to myself, 'well its not really the end of the world is it?'

The following week, i come home from a stressful day of working and experimenting on a breakthrough invention: this time machine device in the works since i first got this job. As I try to rid sofa with white pinstripes. I boot up my Dell PC, click on Internet Explorer, and go straight to http://www.nba.com/nets to check up on the progress. It reads, "Long time Net Kerry Kittles traded to clippers" I wasn't fully dissapointed, thinking we traded for someone like Marko Jaric, but to my dismay, we traded him for a second round draft pick! In my mind I thought that the Nets management has gone crazy. I had to do something to stop this madness!

The next day, I go to the laboratory to fix the time machine. I was so close! It was so close to being finished and a light bulb had gone off in my head! The formula was... But I was fatigued to a great extend and my head fell straight on my desk... I fell into a deep sleep...



I wake up, look at the time and it reads 8:25 AM. I'm late for work! I get dressed, and hop into my Accord. I whip out my cellphone and it reads: 8:45 AM, June 27th, 2004. How could this be? It, it can't be... It was probably just the wrong date. But when i arrived in the laboratory, all the clocks showed June 27th, 2004. Had i gone mad? Thinking to myself, what posibilities could have been... Wait! It had to be the time machine! It must've been activated while i was asleep... Another thought pops into my head... But wait, the Nets! They're still intact and the Bruce Ratner ownership hadn't been approved yet! A whole plethora of ideas kept bursting in my head for the next hour and I had a plan...

I contacted Nets management, and the clerk picked up the phone, "Hello, New Jersey Nets Management, how many I help you?" I replied, "May i speak to the owner please?" After a couple of days, i recieved a phone call by the owner. I said, "I'm willing to buy the New Jersey Nets Basketball Team. May we discuss terms?" The owner said, "Well you do have some competition sir, but I'm listening..."

The next week, i recieve another phone call from the owner stating that he will sell the team to me! I thought to myself, "Now we're in business, we can save this team!"
