    I said vows just to watch it ended abruptly
    Let some people in, and now these niggas disgust me
    I learned that a wolf could sometimes resemble a husky
    Swear that they your dog, then they sell you shorter then Mugsy


    Lyrics from 'Farewell' paint a picture that Dame might be going through more than just a break up with the Trailblazers. A friend thinks Dame is going through a divorce from someone he talked to but no idea if it's true or not, might explain some of the erratic behavior.

    As a dog, this brings a tear to my eye.

    Thanks Dame!

    Yep. It's been confirmed in here by some people in the know that Dame is going through some serious personal stuff.

    Makes total sense to me. I feel for the guy.

    Luckily the blazers gave him hundreds of millions in contracts to help him work his way through it and then put him in the best possible situation to win a championship.

    It sucks to see this breakup, but I really appreciate both Dame and Cronin.

    You are neither Wolf nor Husky. Well, husky the adjective, maybe.

    I'm ENGLISH. You're talking about Haggis. And buddy, let me tell you, there's nothing more disgusting than what they eat below the Mason Dixon line. I lived in Arkansas for three years and no country that calls that stuff food can make jokes about British cuisine.

    My great aunt had a lamb named Juno who was a bit of an asshole. Let's just say that Juno was delicious.

    You telling me mountain oysters and deep fried okra are bad food? My girlfriend back in the day and all her Liverpudlian family and friends had nothing good to say about English food other than England has awesome Indian food. I guess some things are acquired tastes. A southern fried chicken dinner with biscuits or a southern baked apple pie are awesome. There's some great food in the south but they do deep fry to the extreme with lard in some areas. Southern BBQ is the bomb.

    That sucks to hear, sounded like it was just a rumor from this friend but to have others confirm really is sad. Divorce, while a part of life, still really sucks for those involved, especially when there is infidelity along with young kids. I'm not a huge fan of how Dame handled this whole thing (not a fan of how Goodwin or Cronin did either) but never want some one to have to go through this. Out of all the mess, he is in a great spot to win a ring or two and then hopefully come back home and retire with a pinwheel on his chest.

    Given that @SlyPokerDog thinks Alpo is amazing I think he is well positioned to talk about British cuisine

    Hey, slypokerdog is just being modest. His cover story trip to the Yucatan was blown when he showed up on national TV a couple nights ago.

    He was really in Pasadena picking up the $1,000,000 winnings from the AGT show.

    Now SPD is in the Las Vegas MGM skylofts super luxury suite smoothered in submissive poodle and chihuahau bitches hand feeding him scooby treats.

    So he’s going to leave slandering the FO more than thanking the fans?

    Oh, and fried okra is a delicacy

    Fried chicken, mashed taters, cob corn, gravy.

    Peach crisp and black coffee for dessert. (large dollop of whipped cream on the dessert that you might spoon into your coffee).

    Dame is going through a separation that may lead to a divorce according to a friend of his.

    I've never watched that show but I dig Sam Richardson. His mother is Ghanian and while that's' not the same accent as Nigerian (not that I could tell the difference, personally), it's geographically close so I am interested to see him doing that accent.
