Anyone familiar with the NBA knows of the term "sick." Here is the oft-maligned Stephon Marbury giving a visual demonstration of the concept. It's kind of like filthy, but even nastier, to the point where the dirt, sweat and funk on a play make you queasy.

I don't think, though, that's it's supposed to be taken literally. Unfortunately, no one told the Memphis Grizzlies that. The team has incorporated the possibility of throwing up into their campaign for Rudy Gay, Rookie of the Year. From the Memphis Commercial Appeal:
The campaign features a brochure in the form of an airline ticket. The in-flight services say there will be highlight reel dunks, blocks and game-winning shots featured every flight...

Attached to the air sickness bag is a pair of pilots' wings, which reads, 'Rudy Air. Taking flight, every night.' Also included is a luggage tag with Rudy Gay for Rookie of the Year.
Okay, I guess that would make me want to heave a vote his way. Since, you know, nothing makes me like a player like being reminded of puking on airplanes.
