I LOVE MY JOB!!

Most, if not all, of you know by now that I work for the Suns. And you've probably heard that there's a little excitement going on these days with the trade of Shawn Marion & Marcus Banks for Shaquille O'Neal.

Because I work for the web site, I was able to attend the press conference. And I can say it was the best day of work I've had here so far. Shaq is absolutely hilarious. He has already given him the title of Assistant Vice-President General Manager of the Phoenix Suns. He promised that he would make both Amare Stoudemire and Raja Bell better players. He pointed out that he couldn't really make Steve Nash any better. And he said that all of the negativity in the national press only encourages him more. His quote: "When I get mad, I win championships." He told us that when he called his mom to tell her he was on TV everywhere talking about him, she reminded him that a team is made up of "we" not "me".

This little ride I'm on right now with the Suns just got a heckuva lot more interesting!

So how small di dyou feel being that close to a big man? That is extremely exciting and the things you experience on a regular basis is what most of us hopes happens once or twice.
