    i do not, i had the magazine, which is supposed to come with it, but i got the subscription at amazon for like 3 bucks a year, and its not included with that package or someshit

    espn has got to the point where anything you want to read is insider, other than that it is basically useless

    cnnsi has decent baseball writers

    Yeah, I was okay when ESPN only had certain exclusive content available to Insiders, because it was really only an issue around draft time, and even that information would eventually be leaked by other sources anyway.

    Now it's like any half-way interesting article is Insider protected. The particular content that I'm trying to get a look at this time around is Chad Ford's updated big board. You can see his top 20, but outside of that, it's all locked up.

    Nah, Johnathan Williams III, the basketball recruit going to Mizzou,... had a cookout tonight (was like 60+ degrees in TN), so I went up to the cornerstore for some beers and ran into him. He's closer to the 6'9 that Rivals has him at than the 6'8 that ESPN lists him at, but ridiculously skinny and lanky, so I guess that creates an illusion of height...

    Anyone here been to law school or done any graduate school studying abroad?

    I just got offered a much better scholarship that I was expecting to a law school in an area where they practice Civil Law, and because they practice Civil instead of Common, they can offer study abroad programs in Europe, Central America, and South America.

    The idea of it sounds great, but I'm wondering how much of a distraction that really is. Does anyone have any experience in the area?

    Anyone see the Real Sports segment on free climbers?

    No ropes, no parachutes,... just alone in the elements on some of the hardest faces out there...

    These guys might all be facing inevitable death, but it's still awe inspiring to watch them do their work. The main guy they highlighted in the spot was Alex Honnold.

    Moral Quiz

    This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally.

    The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision.

    Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.
    THE SITUATION:
    You are in Florida , Miami to be specific.
    There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe
    flooding. This is a flood of biblical proportions.
    You are a photojournalist working for a major newspaper, and you're
    caught in the middle of this epic disaster.
    The situation is nearly hopeless.
    You're trying to shoot career-making photos.
    There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing
    under the water.
    Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.
    THE TEST:
    Suddenly you see a black man in the water. He is fighting for his
    life, trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer.
    Somehow the man looks familiar. You suddenly realize who it is. It's
    Barrack Obama!
    At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take
    him under forever.
    YOU HAVE TWO OPTIONS:
    You can save the life of Barrack Obama or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the world's most powerful socialist Muslim men hell bent on the destruction of America.
    THE QUESTION:
    Here's the question, and please give an honest answer........
    "Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the
    classic simplicity of black and white?"
