Stu’s Hunt Down: Cherokee Parks
Posted on June 26th, 2008 – 2:05 PMBy Michael Rand
Thanks to the magic of Interweb technology, if we do not put the U.S. Women’s Open tag on a particular entry, it does not get sucked onto the project page. So this is for regular reader eyes only. And it’s a beauty. In honor of the impending NBA draft Redactular (4.5 hours and counting, and you best believe we’ll be thirsty after a day on the course), the Hunt Down:
Name: Cherokee Parks
Claim to Fame, Minnesota: played for the Wolves from 1996-1998. As you probably guessed, the Wolves traded a first round pick to get him. On a positive note, we got a fantastic Nike commercial out of the deal, and the pick turned out to be Kelvin Cato.
Claim to Fame, Everywhere Else: went to Duke and flamed out in the NBA. In other news, water is wet. Also had many, many tattoos.
Where He Is Now: it says here that he has a “2.4-mile scenic loop, with separate lanes for vehicle traffic (one-way) and recreational users.” Wait, that’s not right. OK, here we go: looks like he moved back to his hometown of Huntington Beach, CA and opened a punk rock club called the Brigg. You’d be forgiven for thinking it looks exactly like the punk rock club where Seth and Ryan hung out on The O.C. Yes, I watched The O.C. Sorry, haters. Anyway, the Brigg is apparently no longer, so we’ll assume Cherokee has moved on to bigger and better tattoos.
Glorious Randomness: his sister Corey was in a band whose name cannot be mentioned in affiliation with the NOTTC. Google it yourself, pervs. A friend of mine saw them play at the Entry and his review was, “Loud. Fire. Amazons.” More bands should be like that.
Proprietor note: Sorry about that photo.

I am convinced that this information is, in fact, correct.
What was Will Avery busy?
Dave, when read in tandem with that picture, I tend to think that your interpretation is solid (and that Joe Smith just got to third base).
“Proprietor note: Sorry about that photo.”
Were the other photos of guys grabbing at Parks’ man purse to graphic?
I’m just shocked that Will Avery was the only Wolves lottery draft bust listed by ESPN. I’m convinced their top 15 could have been filled at least halfway with Wolves lottery picks
“A friend of mine saw them play at the Entry and his review was, “Loud. Fire. Amazons.” ”
You’re freinds with Carlos Gomez?

Quit with all that remembering of funny things. I guess my drinking is catching up to me.

A 6′3″ female bassist that looks like Cherokee Parks? Yiiikes.
/OFF TOPIC- kind of
So I decided I hate work today so I have been checking out updated Mock Drafts.(Don’t tell my boss) It looks like there is a good chance that the Wolves are going to reunite OJ Mayo and Bill Walker. Would this be a good or bad thing for these 2 players?

There’s no reason to say Joker’s ex looks like Cherokee. That is flat out mean!
Gross. Did you see that guy’s balls?

Here’s Corey Parks. Ahem.
I was under the impression that the bassist in that particular band was Tom Gugliotta’s sister.
Cherokee Parks makes much more sense.

Which ex? (Corey Parks pictured left)

Don’t ever use the word “Solid” when refering to Joe Smith, Third Base, and showing a picture of it happening. You totally ruined my visual of previously mentioned threesomes.
I guess, maybe it was her who got Cherokee into tattoos then? Just a hunch. I wonder if any of them mean “I love my brother.” If not, I bet he’s really [redacted] angry at AC/DC.
Wow, you guys weren’t wrong, except you should have said an uglier version of Cherokee. Yuck!
I think it would be awesome to have a David Bowie impersonator as my sister. You could totally hook up with the sister of a Mick Jagger impersonator.
Clarence, if imitation was supposed to be like reality, wouldn’t you want to hook up with the wife/girlfriend of a Mick Jagger impersonator?
Dave-
Upon further review, you are correct and the call on the field has been reversed. We definitely used up the full allotment of time reviewing the film under the hood.
