Updated throughout the day with quick takes from staff.
If you're not religiously reading FAT SHAWN KEMP yet, shame on you; it's a world-class, if mostly NBA-centric, repository of the ridiculousness of the sports world and its trading cards at their height, 15-20 years ago. Doubt us? Do so at your own peril; the site has everything.
- Joe Wolf's mullet? Check.
- The reprehensible 1995 NBA All-Star jerseys? Check.
- A painting of John Stockton playing outside with some weird '50s-era radio technology going on between him and the basketball? Chizzzzzeck.

First of all, those are not his real arms and never were. Those are prosthetic Hulk joke arms. Second, who could ever forget his "I've had this since the 2nd grade, why do you ask?" haircut. And third, the photo editing is botchtastic; they overdid the shadows on Doleac without bothering to put any on the court, and they didn't match the dimensions of the floor and Doleac correctly, so it looks like he's about 5'3".
