Iguodala has the most dunks for a small forward in the league, that's what he's good for. So Charlie Villanueva tweets that KG called him a cancer patient during last night's game. What a scene.

The Pistons look like they could be the worst team in the league so far. Too many minutes for Austin Daye and Charlie V, just depressing. Ben Wallace plays like 44 minutes...Ben Gordon(who's been paid way too much) should be starting over Rip, who we should get rid of, and Rodney Stuckey should be one of the best 6TH MEN in the league not a starter. Where are Greg Monroe's minutes? Why did we draft this guy if he's only gonna play a few minutes in the second quarter? They're gonna have to go 0-10 before a change is gonna come. Fingers crossed for acquiring Josh Smith or maybe Chris Kaman as the season progresses. and last night that bastard Jermaine O'Neal was dunking all over the palace of auburn hills. Back in the glory days when Sheed was guarding him that would never happen! /iMAD

so is it similar to 'trapped in the closet'?

going to Yankee stadium today for the game, this could be elimination for the bombers. I'm a Tigers fan, so I;m strictly cheering for Curtis Granderson and enjoying my free tickets courtesy of my boss. Could be some Rangers franchise history in the making!

I saw him on tour with Aceyalone, Ab Rude and micah 9 about 8 years ago. Acey was killin it, then Eyedea grabbed the mic and suggested that all freestyles consist of 3-syllable words for the rest of the session. That is what I will always remember him for, unfortunately. The Rock Steady reunion freestyle on the CM FAMALAM show was decent. RIP

Is the Banksy opening of the Simpsons transgressive or subversive? No, not unless you think millionaires tweaking the noses of billionaires is subversive; I'd like to see Werner Herzog or Michael Haneke do one. I'd also like the show not to be so terrible, but if wishes were horses, then that would be super weird.

that Pistons/Heat game was rough.

I second the Polish Village recommendation, thank god brooklyn has greenpoint for a surrogate Hamtramck in my life

Re: I wanna see your...........PETS! My pit looks similar to your dog, these pics don't do it the most justice but the resemblance in the tug o war photo is spot on

Yahoo fantasy basketball every year. My league is in its 6th season

play some blackjack at the Greektown casino. When Allen Iverson was a Piston, he would cash game checks there! You should get the detroit style coney at least once while visiting. Try Lafayette coney island at 118 W. Lafayette Blvd. Right around the cross streets of Mt. Elliot and Mack, there is an outdoor installation art display called the Heidelberg Project that has been there for decades, it takes up most of a block or more. I guess that would be worth checking out too.

Detroit trumps Ann Arbor anyday, A2 is just a college town full of well-to-do liberals. I'd say start by checking out these bars: Lager House Corktown Tavern The Bronx Bar The Old Miami The Magic Stick/Majestic TV Bar and see if that leads to any after-hours shit. Helps if you actually know someone there, otherwise you're done drinkin at 2am and lookin for a titty bar. Check out "The Booby Trap" on 8 mile.

it DOES seem very fake

this shit has already come and gone in my neighborhood, but at its height I remember girls carrying ice in their purses to counter ice someone. We kept some at the bar I worked at, there was a girl who would ice customers. This all happened back in like April or May, I can't believe it's stilll going. Kinda reminds me of edward 40 hands as a trend.

It's been two weeks today, he's as chill as can be. big hit at the neighborhood veterinary clinic, thank god I found a doctor off the bat who loves pitbulls, that is hard to come by. My vet actually owns a pit. This little guy loves people, he is a very affectionate dog. When I walk him around on my nights off, we hit the bars with yards and such, he draws a lot of attention(which he loves). The ASPCA finally got me his papers, i got him on heartgaard, just registered his chip information under my name.

haha! Happy birchday, congrats on gettin it!

It's been about a week since I adopted this 8 month old pit bull/staffordshire terrier mix from the kill shelter in my area. He was found in the Bronx tied to a fence in a heavy rainstorm, left to die with no food or shelter around him. He gets along great with the beagle/lab mixed dog I've had for 3 years. They have a royal rumble in the living room every day around 2pm

oy vey! My tap water is cloudy at first also, and when I'm refilling water pitchers in the restaurant I work at, the pitchers are cloudy for a minute. We have to wait for them to clear up before the waiters refill people's water at the tables. I heard that the secret to great tasting New York pizza is in the water, and that authentic New York pizza joints in other states have the water imported.

Chris Kaman plays for Germany, similar situation

did I catch a niner in there?

I keep reading this thread title as "COUNT required therapy"

yeah, I'm working off student loans by slingin drinks every night. The occasional freelance job related to my degree, definitely not career material.

I haven't had a chance to watch this show yet, but I met Denis Leary when they were filming part of it on my block in Brooklyn. I actually had to open the bar I work at around 7am for them to pan across it for a shot, and the restaurant on the corner was participating as well. They had a pickup truck crashed through the window as part of the set, and they remodeled everything inside(temporarily) and we all closed our businesses for about 4 days. Needless to say, we were heavily compensated by the show, that was some of the easiest money I've ever made.
