Tennesse's Summitt Health Problems

Yesterday Pat Summitt released a video (above) letting the world know that she has been struggling with memory lose for sometime and has been diagnosed with dementia-the Alzheimer type.  However, Coach Summitt does not plan to stop coaching and says she will return for next season. Originally thinking her memory lose was a side effect to the rheumatoid arthritis medicine she'd been prescribed, she later found it not to be so after doctors preformed a spinal tap with the aforementioned shocking results.

Our prayers go out to her, her family and team, may there be recovery in the midst and peace of mind for the legendary coach at all times.

Kevin Hart vs Shannon Brown: The show down!!!

Shaq Retires

After a 19 years of playing in the NBA, Shaquille O'neal arguably the greatest center of all-time has decided to hang up his sneakers.  In a short video Shaq let his fans know that it was the end of the road for him.  Spending most of my life as a child in Orlando, Fl it was great watching you play Diesel thanks for all the memories.

Scottie Pippen Is Out Of His Mind...again

Ok, Scottie Pippen, STOP.  Somewhere in your mind you never let those 94 playoffs go. I know,  I know, Michael had to ride in and save you after the Knicks put y'all in the dirt.  Its ok, let it go.  Time heals all wounds, and you'll never be able to find true happiness holding onto old butt whoppins. Lebron is great, he is a great scorer, a great passer, but he is NOT better than Michael Jordan.  He might not even be better than Magic.  Truthfully he probably ain't even better than Kobe.
A short list for you.
1. Michael played great defense, Lebron plays stat defense.
2. Michael led teams, Lebron has yet to prove himself as a leader.
3. Michael wanted to beat the best for his rings, Lebron took his talents to South Beach.

Scottie, Lebron is better than let's just say....you, but not Michael.

But What is a Word

I can't say I never thought i'd see the day, because I did. It is my humble opinion that David Stern WILL NOT REST until the NBA is all pillow taps and curtsies. The NBA is changing, its a family league, the new friendly league where any utterance of anger or malice is met with swift retribution. So, when Kobe Bryant walked over to his bench, slammed his towel down, screamed for a teammate, waited for Bennie Adams to walk by again and screamed out "f***in f**got" I knew he was going to catch a hefty....oh, wait, he never said it to the ref. UMMM welcome to the new NBA Kobert.

The sensitivity of the NBA is indictive of the sensitivity of America. I can't be soley angry with David Stern.  We as a people are so scared to offend, subjugate or upset anyone, of anything different. We smuther all questionable happenings. We find a sick pseudo-solace in the belief that punishing anothers faults cleanses our own sins.  Homophobia is a problem amongst America's straight males.  We are on the outside, looking into a lifestyle we don't completey understand.  Until there is a dialogue between gay and straight communities, we will continually over and under react. If the NBA really wanted to show the gay and lesbian community it cared, the association would sponser events and openly accept "in the closet" players (oh yeah there out there.) Unfortunately, most people don't want an answer to the problem, most people want a quick fix to make them feel ok.  History teaches us that when scared people congregate, bad things happen.  So Kobe, Dwayne, Lebron, watch out, because no matter how many kids you hug, no matter how many tickets you sell, your tar and feather moment is coming. We as Americans will always need a scapegoat, because we are too afraid to look in the mirror.
