I support him a lot and I feel really strongly that he's going to be a legit player down the road, but its virtually impossible to get other people to understand why I think that way. It's kind of a weird feeling. The last couple players I've felt like that about were Eli Manning (who lived up to it) and Felix Potvin (who didn't, even though it wasn't entirely his fault).</div> Have you ever heard of Shannon Brown? I'm not gonna lie, this whole Hot Chick Draft thing is creepin' me out a bit. On another note, just watched Mike Beasley's first draft video on ESPN, and that guy's got a lot more personality than D-Rose. I like how he gets a call from his Kansas State teammate from Minnesota after the lottery telling him he should go to the Wolves, and he says something to the extent of, "It's cold up there right now, right? That's not right! It's SUMMER!" Haha, I hope for his sake Minny doesn't trade for the #2, because he seemed pretty excited about Chicago and Miami. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>I feel that way about Stromile Swift :|</div> If Stromile didn't get cocked all the time, he may be worth something.

I find him to soft and he can have great moments, his best year won't be with SMitch. He needs some structure right now and he's not getting it. I wanted an NBA ready guy and Andrea is to inconsistent for me. And if he ever became great with the Raptors, I would support him for sure, but you won't see me going crazy for him.

He's the same dude that got KTFO by Alexander Johnson, losing 3 teeth, but still got up and hit those free throws. He manned up against Dwight Howard in the playoffs and wasn't afraid to try and shove him out of the paint (if the refs called off-the-ball contact fairly, he could've done a better job). When he's got his game going, he regularly talks shit to his opponents. Also he posterized Kobe (I wish I could find that picture again). He's not strong enough yet, but I don't think that makes him soft.

I haven't really watched the Real World in a long time. I usually tune in to the first couple of episodes to see if I'll like it, but this season seemed like it was going to suck (once again). The hottest Real World cast member was Johanna though.

Secondly, it's not an opinion but a fact that the deep south is almost all non-Italian/Jewish whites and blacks. Everything I posted supports that, whereas you're just talking out of your ass on the topic. Thirdly, I really have no idea what the fuck this is supposed to mean - "now you act like only girl that watch Real World should be 15 year old girl." Seriously man, what's your deal? How long have you been speaking our language? I'd reply to that point of your post, but I'm not sure what the hell it means. Lastly, you know who listens to Lil' Wayne? Everyone in the clubs and everyone at New Orleans. Lil' Wayne is not the most talented rapper, but he's a rapper I associate with my home, all the good times I've had this last year, and all of my friends in New Orleans. That's why I support him, not because I give a damn about the MTV portion of his fanbase or his actual rapping abilities. It's a nostalgia thing. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>I swear that o.iatl has to be chinese.
