    Bang. And I fucking hate Duke.

    Of course, the thing about being glad about his parents still working well into their 60s... I hope I'm not still working well into my 60s!!! :lol:

    no need to relive it. anytime the fab 5 come up, you just know, time out is going to be right behind. i'm sure he is sick of hearing about it. :lol:

    yeah but at once he can talk about it and maybe that'll stop the questioning...regardless, he's still a pussy ;)

    yeah you're probably right

    i'd say that's a top 5 all time bonehead play in sports in general :lol:

    good for Grant to respond. I watched this show and thought Jalen's comments were borderline inapppropriate. between basically calling Grant an uncle tom and basic stereotypical racist thoughts about Laettner and Hurley . as i watched it i thought to myself that if a white guy got up there and made comments in a similar vein how the shit would have hit the fan.

    It's funny how Jalen would say those things about the Duke players when his teammate Chris Webber went to a private school and his family was pretty well off.

    Yeah, they talked about Chris Webber like he lived in the projects in that doc. Give me a freakin' break.

    It really hurts that my Temple Owls lost in the Elite 8 to that team who later had to pull down their Final Four banner. :twisted:

    really?
    exhibit A . jersey was a gift to him.
    exhibit B . Liked and followed a player.


    exhibit C . this must be what seals the fraudulent deal. The jersey is "sweet"


    Aside from exhibit C , this brings up an interesting point about fraudulance.(is that even a word?)

    Being in New Orleans that night, I barely remember a thing ;) . My friend bet big bucks on the fab 5 that night :? . You could hear his scream "noooooooooooooooooo" :lol: echoing throughout the superdome before most people realized they had no timeouts left :shock: . So much for doubleling down the price of the trip :lol: , I'm glad I stopped betting. BTW 6 nights in New Orleans is a bit too much :oops: . 3 of the 8 of us got alcohol sickness :lol: , also glad I can control myself ;) .

    can i not like individual players throughout the league while still solely endorsing my hometown team?? i liked/respected barkley, miller, and kemp a lot back in the day too... i'll always have a soft spot for deron williams cause he's an illini... i think nash is a hell of a player

    i would never root for anyone playing my bulls though

    i'm a fan of the GAME 8-)

    Respect!

    Same goes for me in just about every sport, I like individual teams and individual players as well. Some of my favorite players aren't on the home teams, but if they were they'd be dynasties.

    you can like and follow a player. everyone does that. wearing that players jersey if its not your home town team? i gotta think that's crossing the line. not a big jersey guy anyway unless it's day of the game though.......and in this case it is the jersey of one of his hometown's rivals.
