Post Office calls Malone

[Patrick Carey]

The U.S. Post Office has called Karl Malone and requested that he stop
using the nickname, "the mailman." "It's just bad for our image," said a
spokesperson for the post office, "I mean look at what he did in game 2.
The important thing for mailmen is that they deliver - all of the time."

Malone has no comment on losing his nickname, though reports have surfaced
that he is checking for a new nickname, "the garbage man" in honor of all
of the points he scored in the fourth quarter of game 2. He's checking with
the department of sanitation first though, to see if they have any
objection.
