Caption contest celebrates Wilt Chamberlain and his night of 100 points
March 3rd, 2010 by Chris HumpherysThis week’s caption contest celebrates one of the most recognizable sports photos ever taken: Wilt “The Stilt” Chamberlain holding up a piece of paper with “100” written on it after just torching the Knicks for 100 points. Wilt took 63 shots that night, making 36 of them. He also went 28-32 from the free throw line. And we thought Allen Iverson shot a lot.
This week marked the 48th anniversary of that fateful evening that I’m sure those covering Wilt would love to forget. Allegedly only around 4,000 fans were in Hershey, Pennsylvania to see Wilt’s performance which remains a league record to this day. That particular game was not televised.
To ease all of you into this caption contest, Wilt probably has several other, off-the-court records that remain untouched to this day.
So, sportschump readers, have at it. And please remember to keep it tasteful as my mom is reading.
“Um… you might want to add a couple of zeros.”
Wow, I score 100 points and they give me the gayest sign ever
FDF…
How much do you think that little piece of paper and the Bic pen that wrote that ‘100′ are going for on eBay?
Yes I AM READING

ps: Let ‘em rip Sportschump readers!
Careful what you wish for. You have just given TheBasketballOracle free reign.
I’ll get my censors ready.
EARMUFFS!
December 31st
Donny C… I do believe the records show that Wilt was not only active on that date, but 364 others as well.
Wilt’s minimum daily requirement.
Hey Wilt, i’m open !

In response to your chatroll comment. And Jesse Ventura is no dumb a_s like Sen Jim Bunning (D-Ky) ! What type of a moron holds up legislation in the Senate to allegedly make a point over government overspending , when he has participated in legislative bills that’ve added in excess of a $ 1 trillion ($1,000,000,000,000) to the national debt over the course of his political career ?

There’s nothing noteworthy at present happening over at the asketballoracle . You have my assurances on that !
Alan Parkins
Wow, I thought my original entry couldn’t be touched but Jon and Aer came up with two GREAT ones!
Very nicely done, fellas.
Jonny, you still going to Gator home games? Might I ask why? Are we in or out?
Look, I passed the STD test with a perfect score! Oh wait…positive was a bad thing?
“I did not have sexual relations… with more than this many women… this weekend… after 8pm…”
Bert…. Wow! Another fantastic entry! Very nicely done!
“I’m really smiling, cuz i know these 0’s look like little boobies, and i looooove me some boobies!”
Bert obviously woke up on the right side of the bed this morning.
Come on, Bert. Who doesn’t like boobies?
i’d be smiling too if i seen as many as he did!
Bert…. with the help of the internet, you should be able to knock that out in a few hours.
Might wanna get started soon though.

There could well be more trouble brewing ahead for Tiger and it has nothing to do with ‘laying the wood to some skanks’ .
See my this post written by me and let me know what you think as to its merits ?
If It Walks Like A Duck And Quacks Like A Duck Then It Ought To Be A Duck ……… !
Alan Parkins
Things’ll get worse for Tiger if he goes 0-for in his first five or ten tourneys.
I scored 100 today – twice!
You know what they say about us people. Yes, it is 100 inches long.
Newlywed Game format:
Bob Eubanks: “What is the age of the oldest lucky lady on THE list?”
Chris
That’s not the situation I’m speaking of. I don’t know whether or not you’re aware but the Feds and Justice Dept are investigating a doctor by the name of Anthony Galea . He’s a well known doctor who’s worked with a number of athletes , in particular MLB players and a number of NFL stars.
Well recently an assistant of his was caught with HGH that was bring back across the border into the US. Cause for concern ? Yes ! The drugs were not prescribed and they were allegedly to be vended to athletes in the sports arena . Amongst athletes who’ve been a patient of Galea’s , has been Woods, A-Rod , Mets’ players Carlos Beltran and Jose Reyes. Galea may well be indicted and implicated in the illegal transportation of not only HGH but also the drug Actovegin. The latter is a derivative of calf’s blood and is used in the speeding up in athletes recovery. It’s not been sanctioned for approval by the FDA in the US. Side effects are said to be damaging.
See my most recent piece in which I detail much of this out.
If this ball of wax unravels and Woods is implicated in anyway. Then he might as well move to Timbuktu !

Jody, Jody, Jody.
Only twice?
Must’ve been a slow day for Wilt.
Your ordinary human can do better than that in one night at Emeralds.
Snake…
I didn’t know Wilt was Jewish too.
SD knows what the Newlywed Game?
Must be thanks to GSN or Nick TV.
Al… I do remember the name as tied into the brief Tiger disappearance.
I’ll be right over to check it out.
“Chances are, I probably slept with your mother!”
That’s all Tiger – really? C’mon I topped that in February.
Luca breakin’ out the yo momma jokes. Very nice.
KSP… Tiger was doing his best to emulate Wilt. Wouldn’t it be fun to see the UGLIEST women they ever slept with?
Or maybe not.
Actually, Wilt was 110″ before his circumcision..
Snake… sounds like a little more than just the tip, huh?
Think your boy Nate gets as much action?
lol the Newlywed Game one cracked me up!
Bert… there were a number of classics for this one.
Definitely the best caption contest to date.
Chris
Dropped this on the upcoming bout between Mayweather and Mosley.
I’m Just Not That Into You ! Hell The Sport of Boxing Is Now One Big Farce !

Still of the opinion that Ben Roethlisberger is innocent of nothing more than having consensual sex with that female in Lake Tahoe ? Bear in mind that there’s now been a second allegation made against him this time be a female in Atlanta , Georgia. This is no longer an isolated incident or one where he’s being wrongfully accused ! One incident maybe but two ? C’mon now !

Al… I agree with you on the fight. I’ll be right over to comment.
Al… when I first heard the news about Big Ben, I thought it was the same incident.
This will likely not bode well for the guy.
I just wanted to score 1 point for every cat that I own. Other than basketball my life is all about the pussy.
p.s. Sports Chump is now listed on the SKK blogroll. Expect your traffic to increase exponentially!! Well, at least my a three or four hits a day…

Let’s put this way , I wouldn’t at all be surprised if Big Ben ended up on a sexual predator’s lit alongside an ex Catholic priest. That’s how low things could well get for the guy.
And then another question , bearing in mind both Tank Johnson and Pacman Jones have been suspended for far less than the accusations now being leveled at Roethlisberger . What should Roger Goodell now actually do ? Leave it in the hands of the state law enforcement (GBI) in Georgia ? Or suspend him ’til their investigation is done. Bear in mind this is the second such allegation made against him and the civil suit trial is in the process of going ahead. Need I remind you that the victim there Andrea McNulty (first victim) filed her complaint in a timely manner concerning that incident. But it Ben’s friends at the resort who tried to delay & waylay the whole entire process.

I don’t know that the Gators will get in. At best they might make it through as an at large contestant. But to my mind they need to do well as in win the SEC tournament or at least make the final four, there.
If not, then expect Donovan and the Gators get an invite to the NIT . I know it’s a step down but at least it’s something isn’t it ?

Got to take ‘Buster’ (dog) for a walk as the both of need the exercise and I can scout the ‘talent’ in Winter Haven. The girlfriend is staying at her place this weekend up in Orlando. She’s got an early morning appointment on Monday with a client.
Ah the joys of being a bachelor once again !
Alan Parkins
Did my cousin just say p*ssy on my website.
He used to be such a nice boychick.
I’ll keep you posted on the traffic bump.
Thanks for the love.
Al… does that mean that Big Ben will have to go door to door like John Turturro as the Jesus in the Big Lebowski telling everyone he’s a sexual predator?
That’s a lot of confessional autographs.
Al… it’s a huge step down. This team was killing it not long ago and now this’ll make three straight NIT appearances.
Unacceptable.
Al… did you just say ‘talent’ and ‘Winter Haven’ in the same sentence? That might be the first time anyone’s ever said that.
Ohhhh, boy am I going to be in trouble with my Polk County readers.
