It's Time for the Birdman to Fly

Tonight's High Man is Chris Anderson, long-time weirdo and newly reinstated member of the Charlotte Oklahoma New Orleans Hornets. He got kicked out for using any/all of the following: methamphetamine; cocaine; LSD; opiates, including heroin, codeine and morphine; and PCP.


surprising.

More awesome facts:

"Known as "Birdman" for his high-flying dunks, Andersen was a fan favorite among Hornets fans. He is best known for his performance in the NBA's dunk contest in 2005 when he needed eight tries to finish his first dunk.

Andersen was the first player kicked out of the NBA because of drugs since Stanley Roberts in 1999."

I remember watching that dunk contest. He looked right into the camera and said, "it's time for the Birdman to fly." Then he missed 7 dunks in a row. and he's 6'10".

Welcome back, Birdman.
The ceiling on this season just got a little higher.
I think this is the final push the Hornets needed to make that title run.

I was really hoping the Hornets got this Birdman though. Just sayin.
