A 7’0 tall basketball player.
Apparently he asked her through his interpreter. And he plays for my favorite team of all time.
I’m sure none of you will believe me, but that’s just fucking awesome.
Hope it goes well. But… Through his interpreter? How can one have a date with someone one can’t talk to?
Jeez, haven’t you ever heard of a threesome?
Why did I laugh?
Because it was funny as hell.
Aside…
Have we ever had a “Yay! My daughter has a date with the basketball team!” thread?
I can’t see any possible way this could turn out badly.
What are the odds that, sometime during the evening, your sister will say exactly that? 
Just don’t bring along a date for the interpreter. The guy will be too flattered to talk about himself for once, and Monica will run off with him.
Is it Zaza Pachulia? Because that’s a pretty cool name.
Who is it??
I’m an interpreter, and I NEVER get asked out on dates. ::pout::
Maybe it’s the “kinki” part, you know…
So - wait: I’m the first person to ask to see pics of your sister? 
Beyond that, I hope she’s a smart person who can stick up for herself. If so, at the very least it could be one of those in “had to try it at least once” type of experiences…
ETA: oh, and I like the juxtaposition of username and OP - a sports fan for sure (or maybe Pearl Jam? Didn’t they consider “mookie blaylock” for their band name before arriving at the decidedly-NOT-a-reference-to-jizz Pearl Jam, mature lads that they were?)
Men go on dates with women all the time. And there is very little evidence of successful inter-gender communication that I’m aware of.
Scene: Baller’s bedroom.
Sister on top. She starts ramping up the aggression. He starts signing, fingers and hands flying around everywhere. She freezes, confused. She looks across the room to the interpretter, who’s sitting in suit & tie in the corner.
Terp: (eyeroll) “Ohhh ooh, don’t stop.”
That was kinda fun to work out backwards.
He wouldn’t be kinki if his tongue wasn’t out!
Spill the beans… who is the athlete?
Addendum numero uno: Pics or it didn’t happen.
(Yes)
I thought that would help with getting dates, dammit.
I agree! I had no idea that would happen, but I kinda liked it.
She.
/hijack/Hey, you got any snow up thar yet? /hijack/
That’s what she said. And nope, no snow yet, except for on the mountains. I like snow but I hear it piles up and blocks the roads and all other sorts of nastiness.
So, when are you visiting?
