Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

Larry Bird had sex with my mom, who was a Celtics Roadie back in the day and 9 months later, POP, the next Bird was born. Its quite a touching story actually, if i was ever to meet my real dad...oh my gosh, that would be a dream come true.

You do know he was joking, right? Please tell me you do. Your signature is way too cool for you to be that moronic.

Well, my Dad is a cop, he brought a dead guy back to life after he got in a car accident and had a heart attack. 8-) kinda like superman, so I guess you can say I'm a super hero since I'm his son.
Also, my uncle is like a senator or something for the Canadian government. Damn I forget what it's called, I don't follow the stupid Canadian government. Well anyways he's loaded.
And my friend's aunt dated Nealon Greene who used to play for the Saskatchewan Roughriders (CFL), but that's pointless cause Nealon Greene sucks donkey balls

John Stockton is like my fourth or fifth cousin or something like that. I was at a giant family reunion and his wife and kids were there, but he didnt come. I've met him once or twice but I dont claim to know him, just that I am related to him.

I have a uncle in Hong Kong... pretty wealthy businessman, and was once associated with the Triads at one time. I guess all wealthy businessmen will at one time or another be associated with shady stuff like that. But that's pretty much it when it comes to famous relatives for me :lol:

My most famous relative is my dad. He was a pitcher in the triple a at one point.

Too bad it was back in the 70's, because he hurt his arm and he couldn't throw anymore. If this would have happened now, he would have had tommy john surgery.

Mike Goldman is great ... for late night TV, becuase I'm usually tired and he makes me sleep.

Supposedly if you trace waaay back in the family tree, I'm distantly (distantly distantly) related to John Forbes Kerry (minisculy!)

Other than that, not really. I met someone whose cousin is the guy who played Harm on Jag (David Elliot?)

Looking at all your examples make me kind of sad because I don't got any famous relatives. My most famous relative is an old man that was on a random website. 8-)

This may be corny or whatever but my grandfather fought in WWII (died :cry: ). Hes not famous as where alot of people know him but I think hes famous to me just because he was brave enough and had the courage to fight in the war :wink: .
