As many of you are aware, while the lockout continues, many of our favorite NBA players have headed to foreign lands to play hoops. Not a shock. More curious, however, has been the occasional NBA player choosing to apply for jobs normally reserved for college graduates and middle-Americans kicked in the jimmies by the burst of the housing bubble. First, there was rumor of Brandon Jennings going to work at Foot Locker, but near as I can tell he was just passing though to promote himself. More recently came the news of Delonte West applying for a job at Home Depot.
Well, we at Basketbawful sent out some investigative reporters (along with a few small-time criminals) and managed to get our hands on Delonte's actual job application. This is some amazing stuff, folks. Pulitzer-worthy. Or least worthy of a backstage pass to the ESPYs. Or maybe a just fruit roll-up with a Celtics logo on it.

Bahaha @ "when can you start" answer.
OK, I couldn't go through all of the clues. Fun stuff, though! :)

Your feedback will be much appreciated
thanks
Funny stuff though, except for the whiny part from a butthurt Celtics fan. Though as an LA fan it made me smile.
Oof.
I got a load of NBA pins from my sister. She lives in Hong Kong. 'Chicago Balls' 'New Orelernr Hornts' and 'New Newyork Nicks' are the best bad spellings.
