6/25 JD - BEgers in previous lives
by fanfaraway on Jun 25, 2009 5:08 AM PDT
Email
PrintAs TiH has pointed out, we have all had previous lives, and know that none of us were peasants.
So what where you in previous lives? A queen, a pirate, a dragon slayer?
If I believed in reincarnation I would say that I've been a duchess, a nun and a courtesan. I was also Fanny Mendelssohn and Maria Callas. All of these lifes have clearly influenced my current personality.

Now is your time to come clean or (hopefully) completely ignore this topic and bring up great topics of your own!

If you don't remember your previous lives, find out about them here
Also, please be nice, because even though I'm not a teenage girl or a laker fan, I'm spanish, and that's got to count for something too!

hahaha, thanks
but it’s all yours
I’ll take a page from a well-known Spanish singer and say that my previous lives were a Commie in Vegas, a drown guy in the Titanic, and a flautist in Hamelin. But if I could choose I’d be a one-legged pirate, with wooden leg and a patch over my eye.
According to this website:
I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were female in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern North Africa around the year 1125. Your profession was that of a farmer, weaver or tailor.Love the “I don’t know how you feel about it” part
Whoa, I got this from that
I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were male in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern Turkey around the year 1350. Your profession was that of a librarian, priest or keeper of tribal relics.
crraazy cool site
I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were male in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern Germany around the year 775. Your profession was that of a sailor or shoemaker.

NOW you have to remain credited
I’ll add your website to the top. This is what I got:

Your brief psychological profile in your past life:
As a natural talent in psychology, you knew how to use your opportunities. Cold-blooded and calm in any situation.
-——————————————————————————————————————-
The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:
Your task is to learn, to love and to trust the universe. You are bound to think, study, reflect, and to develop inner wisdom.
I can really relate to this, actually…. LOL

Or.. maybe we were twins separated at birth! Spending our whole lives feeling a connection with someone in a land the other one could not have possibly even knew existed! Making shoes or sailing or sailing around & making shoes.

I think it figured everything out
After the hushening, I wasn’t sure where I stood here on Blazers Edge. I was frequently used as an example in the hushening discussions and my comments kept getting deleted. I was confused by the conflicting messages, I was getting e-mails from different factions, and I was afraid if I took action I would get the Sabonis4Ever/Tommy Williams/Cool Hand Luke treatment. At the time, I had no other alternative, I had to go into hiding for my own protection.
While in exile, I struggled to define my role at BlazersEdge. Was I Neo or Harriet Tubman? Were the moderators Death Eaters or the Borg? Who was Dave and what about Ben? Then it dawned on me.
I’m Bart Simpson.
Dave – Superintendent Gary Chalmers
Ben. – Principal Seymour Skinner
-ken – Groundskeeper Willie
jorga – Edna Krabappel
prezofdeath – Martin Prince
usmcr3049 – Chief Clancy Wiggum

Interesting
Dragline thought he was Bart Simpson too.
I wonder how many folks who used you as an example in the hushening discussions were confusing you with the rehab guy.
Yeah
Well I’ve wanted a nemesis on BE for a long time. I scared off the first few and ended up agreeing with my last nemesis. Now I have eight so I think it will make things more exciting. I don’t want to keep talking about them, I just wanted to let them know where I stand.

No idea whatsoever who I was in a previous life,
but I totally believe in reincarnation. Suppose I’d have to spend about $200 and visit a psychic to find out. I’ve always enjoyed reading books on this subject along with life after death etc. Not sure why but I’ve always been drawn to things of this nature. I just find it all so fascinating.
Here I am posting in an old JD, and you’re over here basking in glory.
I feel quiet certain you missed one of your past lives – You were Helen of Troy and I was Mark Anthony….remember…I said "A beautiful face will launch a thousand ships but yours will bring them all home." That’s the way I remember it.

this is so lame
I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were female in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern South Australia around the year 1250. Your profession was that of a shepherd, horseman or forester.
Your brief psychological profile in your past life:
Person with huge energy, good in planning and supervising. If you were just garbage-man, you were chief garbage-man.
The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:
Your lesson is to learn humility and faith in spiritual principles. You should believe in higher reasons.
Do you remember now?
I blame Prez
You were a female horse thief that was sentenced to Australia? cool.

i freaking rode around on a horse all day in AUSTRALIA before it was populated...

I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were female in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern North New Zealand around the year 1350. Your profession was that of a banker, usurer, moneylender or judge. Your brief psychological profile in your past life:
As a natural talent in psychology, you knew how to use your opportunities. Cold-blooded and calm in any situation. The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:

LOL!
I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were male in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern Egypt around the year 1150. Your profession was that of a writer, dramatist or organiser of rituals.
Your brief psychological profile in your past life: Ruthless character, carefully weighing his decisions in critical situations, with excellent self-control and strong will. Such people are generally liked, but not always loved.
The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation: Your lesson is to combat violence and disharmony in our world, to understand its roots and origins. All global problems have similar origins.
What have I been doing since then? Floating around in the ether? Obviously wasting time…
LOL, you have mod written all over your previous life
“carefully weighing his decisions in critical situations (like S4E banning)”
“Your lesson is to combat violence (ad hominem attacks, cursing) and disharmony (flame wars) in our world”
“Such people are generally liked, but not always loved.”

I guess in my last life I was a male Bulgarian watchmaker in the 1600s who was inventive and had a knack for drama. The lesson i’ve learned from it is supposedly that there’s an invisible connection to the material and spiritual worlds and my “lesson” is to search, find, then use this “magical bridge”. I guess i’m supposed to trip on alot of acid untill I start seeing things that aren’t there and believe myself to be magical…

Well, well, well... I know you mean the Cuban Armada.
On 16 October 1962, US president John F Kennedy was told by his security officials that the Soviet Union was in the process of installing nuclear missile on Cuban soil, barely 90 miles from American territory.

Maybe you recognized her
but the nun in the post is Saint Teresa of Ávila, my namesake. She is a doctor of the Catholic church and wrote some really steamy poetry about her love for Jesus that Bernini (a sculptor), as well as many others, interpreted as sexual ecstasy. I agree :)
I’m not very religious, but her work is really interesting… read about it here
she was one weird puppy
remember reading some of her poetry in school (“muero porque no muero”). I think Paz Vega did a movie about her.
Yeah she was really crazy, but I like her poetry
and Paz Vega did play her a couple of years ago… I didn’t see it, don’t know if it was good or not
I could have been...
George Mikan, but Destiny said he was to be a l@ker
Wilt Chamberlain, but Destiny said he was to be a l@ker
So I waited around a while longer and became Woody Harrelson without a sense of humor, shorter arms than Rex, and a worse jump shot than the 61st pick

I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were female in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern Korea around the year 1650. Your profession was that of a warrior, hunter, fisherman or executor of sacrifices.

Your brief psychological profile in your past life:
You were a sane, practical person, a materialist with no spiritual consciousness. Your simple wisdom helped the weaker and the poor.

The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:
You should develop your talent for love, happiness and enthusiasm and you should distribute these feelings to all people.

Do you remember now?
The Princess of Blazersedge
A warrior? That is awesome.
More awesome than my “former” job.

I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were female in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern West Russia around the year 1175. Your profession was that of a librarian, priest or keeper of tribal relics.
Your brief psychological profile in your past life:
Seeker of truth and wisdom. You could have seen your future lives. Others perceived you as an idealist illuminating path to future.
The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:
You fulfill your lesson by helping old folks and children. You came to this life to learn to care about the weak and the helpless.
I idealistically illuminate the truth that we get 60+ wins next year and rings the following year.

He worked at the Sealife Park in Waimanalo and then when he’s on that dirt road, that’s a ranch on the norf shore where they filmed Jurassic Park.
Gotta love MJ.
• Louisville’s Terrence Williams has a right to be upset. After working out against Gerald Henderson on Monday in Charlotte, Williams thought he got a promise to be drafted by Charlotte at No. 12. Larry Brown had fallen in love with him, and Williams was confident enough that he skipped a workout the next day with New Jersey.
Then Michael Jordan showed up. According to sources, Jordan isn’t a big Williams fan and would prefer the Bobcats either trade the pick or draft Wake Forest’s James Johnson.
Can’t wait to see how that one turns out.

It's amazing how...
the term “Then Michael Jordan showed up” has a completely opposite meaning in retirement than it did when he was an active player.

yep done with exams trying to get my friends (offline as well as online) to love me again
I’ve been neglecting them…
Thought I’d finally get round to postint a JD, one of my longtime ambitions.
I hope jksnake99 shows up, I want to know what he was in his previous life, and if he’s going out with girl nº2 again, although we should probably stop calling her nº2, it just feels wrong.
great JD!
don’t worry, you were replaced while you were gone;) but we take you back now….
jksnake99 was a nun in a previous life.
yeah, i wonder if n2 called back…nothing wrong with calling her n2….girl #6 is where its at
Go Blazers!!!!!!!!!! Wooooooooooot Wooooooooooooot!!!!!!!!!
I finally showed up
In a previous life, I was a great athlete, a very socially confident individual and an idiot who hated math and the hard science. This life, I’m the complete opposite.
The girl never called me back. Too bad. I liked her pretty well and she was smart and cute. Oh well. My confidence level is higher than it was before the speed dating, so that’s something. No regrets.
Hey that's what I always say
no regrets, and I’ve been known to do some very stupid things (not implying that you have), so coming from me, its extra true. You think about it for a while, take the best you can from it, and move on.
She doesn’t know what she’s missing. Now we can continue to call her nº2 without shame
I can’t see why you aren’t socially confident in this life, maths and hard science are hot! No really, I love maths, and everything I love is hot…
haha, thanks
I maybe could have done a few things differently on the date, but I thought it went reasonably well, so my feeling is that a 3rd date just wasn’t meant to be.
Yay for math and the hard sciences.
Nah, don't look back and say
I should have done it this way or that way, you did things your way and that is always the best way :)
yeah, i'll be over it in another day or so probobly
especially if the Blazers find a way to trade for Kirk Hinrich or something.
Sorry I brought it up...
But I’m sure you’ll get some trades. Why do you want a trade so bad anyway?
You realise that if Rudy gets traded I’ll gradually visit less and less and, eventually, I’ll stop coming to see you… how sad
I want trades because I don't think the current Blazer roster will ever be good enough to win a championship
and I want to know what it feels like for my team to win one.
If Rudy got traded, that would be a sad day indeed, and I would only want to see that if the Blazers were getting a really great player in return.
Can't believe I'm more of a homer than you are
I think they’re a brill and perfectly capable of winning a championship just as they are… Well perhaps they need to restrain Blake from taking ill advised shots at ill advised moments, but that is about it!

If I needed another reason to want Rudy to stay (I didn’t really), I have another one now.

This place has a way of growing on you however you come about being a Blazer fan.
it would be really hard to see Rudy traded, especially this year. Seems we’ve barely scratched that surface.

My sister thinks I'm crazy...
she’s always asking me: “but what do you do there?” and when I laugh and try to explain, she says “you’re crazy…”
The other day she asked me to read her a bit of the JD so she could understand why I was always at Blazer’s Edge. She still doesn’t understand :)
I also think Rudy has a lot to show still. I bet he’s going to kick ass in the european championship!!
Yea, it is tough to explain
Especially during the off-season.. I don’t think that I could really explain it to anyone who wasn’t here. And the JD is the craziest part to explain.
I hope that someone will broadcast the euro championships out here. I think NBATV usually does some of it.

Ew, not happy with my past life.
I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were male in your last earthly incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern Poland around the year 1000. Your profession was that of a builder of roads, bridges and docks.
Your brief psychological profile in your past life:
Person with huge energy, good in planning and supervising. If you were just garbage-man, you were chief garbage-man.
The lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:
Your lesson is to learn humility and faith in spiritual principles. You should believe in higher reasons

I just failed my driving test
I still want to tear my evaluator apart…GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. WHY MUST THE DMV BE A BUNCHA OF LOW LIFE WUSSIES!!!
Here’s my biggest frustration because I kinda see a bit of a paradox. I was docked off for speeding a couple of times and underspeeding (if there’s a such crap word). I felt like I was always in the flow of traffic and never made it awkward for anyone, but that of course is another discussion, especially since the DMV handbook itself claims that the first priority is for the flow of traffic cut off by the speed limit, which is the maximum.
Apparently I was going 30 mph in a school zone, but my gripe is this: the speed limit there is 35 mph, unless the school zone speed is flashing. Of course, this being summer break without a single school employee or student in sight, I went 30 mph. But if I go 20 mph, wouldn’t I be docked for “underspeeding.” Or is it a good rule to always go 20 mph in school zones…
We didn’t even go on the effing highway. I was extra cautious (I used turn signals when backing out of the curb, OH!!! KUDOS TO ME!!! I follow the manual), but the DMV doesn’t seem to care about some forms of caution, but is extra meticulous on some other things.

Well, when I did my driving test
I went super slow the entire time. I would say around 25 and then 15 in school zones. I didn’t get marked off for under-speeding either. I usually speed all the time, but I went super conservative for my test. I think the school zone thing did you in, they really care about that stuff.

Yes I know, you can go regular speed through a school zone during the summer.
But not when you are doing a DMV driving test. The driving test is there to see if you know how to drive, how to read signs properly and how to follow the DMV handbook. Even if you take your driving test during the summer, you still have to go the school speed zone when you pass a school because your DMV person wants to see that you know the correct speed to go when in a school zone.

A lot of the school zones are 20mph at all times, even 11pm on a Saturday in July. The school zone surrounding Sunset is this way if I remember correctly.

I was a female artist, magician or fortune teller
in Northern Canada, around 375AD.
It was cold, really cold. So cold my oil paintings would never dry.
I was purportedly cable of understanding ancient books, which is good. The ability to read modern books wouldn’t have meant diddly squat to the other members of my Inuit tribe, what with modern books not yet having been invented.
However as a fortune teller, I had great success. It was in 384 that I predicted the rise of a basketball team way down south, near the great Columbia River, that would take the world by storm. Their leader was Brandon Roy, a great and fearless warrior.
If you doubt this, just go ask the other members of my tribe. They clearly remember the time I babbled about basketball. It happened shortly before they sacrificed me to keep the polar bears away.
All right, I was a Sumatran babe that is TOTALLY hot

It's from Vescey, so take it with a Great Salt Lake
Columnist Peter Vescey’s NBA sources indicate the Rockets are “leaning toward” trading Tracy McGrady, Carl Landry and Aaron Brooks to the Suns for Leandro Barbosa and Amare Stoudemire.
Stoudemire has been disgruntled in Phoenix for a while now, and ESPN’s Ric Bucher reported on Thursday that he will indeed be traded. The Suns would acquire two solid young players in Landry and Brooks, while gaining financial flexibility with T-Mac’s expiring $22 million contract. So far nothing is official, but stay tuned throughout what promises to be a hectic draft day.

What people don't figure into the equation with hybrids is that in the US energy gets produced mainly by burning dirty coal (the least efficient fossil fuel). And nuclear power plants.

Scenes from a brand new day. Hope dancing in stiletto heels.”

Serious mode now.
Hoosiers is basically movie #1 to watch if you haven’t seen it.
If you’re watching with a girl and like 80’s NBA, consider Forget Paris. The NBA scenes, which use actual NBA stars, are fun if you can deal with the romantic storyline. (“Well, let me be the first one to say ‘Farewell’!”).
It’s hard to find a really great basketball movie. Some other movies to consider (of varying quality) include Hoop Dreams, Basketball Diaries, White Men Can’t Jump, Space Jam, Through the Fire, and He Got Game.
actually, another one
that I’m surprised I liked is Love and Basketball. Forgot Hoop Dreams. That’s the best one probably.

It was like a high schooler playing 6th graders
But that is a bad thing since he won’t be that way in the NBA. He small.
I think it was Norsk (or was it Ben?) who compared him to Kenyon Martin. I like that comparison.
I will be shocked if Curry is a real star in the league
And I will be shocked if Oden is not a dominant center.
Trading Oden for any of those dudes makes no sense since he has a much bigger chance of being a truly impactful player.
Beasley had the best college stats ever too, ya know. Size and skill matter in the NBA. Beasley has skill, but SF size. Griffin has SF size, and no skill. He might be okay but I don’t see a Oden-level type player out of him.
ESPN and ESPN fans told me Oden is a a bust
Bill Simmons confirms it.
It will never happen and it’s not really intriguing, but I think it’s a better deal than the proverbial 3 quarters for 1 dollar. I might take Durant + Brook Lopez over Oden + Bayless though.
I'll wait another year before I'd say Lopez and Durant is better
I was a HUGE fan of Durant coming into the league, but his extremely overrated and limited offensive game bugs me a lot. I can’t stand scorers who only score and nothing else, since it makes them seem like they are impacting the game when they aren’t.
Last season, sure, Lopez and Durant is a no brainer better tandem than Oden Bayless. But, I think Oden will be good enough to be more valuable than both of them combined.
I’m just really unhappy with how Durant’s offensive game has developed. He was supposed to be a more athletic, quicker version of Nowitzki, not just a less versatile Carmelo.
I don’t like Durant’s defense either. But offensively in a duo with Roy that would be killing the opposition since both can get you 25+ any night. Oden is likely also more dominant than Lopez, but Lopez is an able shot blocker and scorer. A bit like a more physical less versatile LaMarcus. A decent point guard like Blake would be enough in that lineup to be pretty darn dangerous against any team.
between Roy and Durant, who guards Kobe/Wade/LeBron/etc.?

I think Durant will become a better defender over time by learning the game and gaining maybe a bit more upper body strength. Travis is in year 7 and still can’t guard them. Durant in year 7 will be pretty deadly.
I don’t like “Oden is a bust” claims after year 1 at all. But I think Durant will be an All-Star beginning next season or the year after, and remain that ever since.
It wasn’t just Durant’s lack of strength. He spaced out, wasn’t laterally quick enough to keep anyone in front of him… it was horrible.
draft dejuan blair
by Cablinasian on Jun 25, 2009 12:31 PM PDT up reply actions
I'm less concerned about his defense
And more concerned that, compared to every single dominant wing I can think of, his passing is so sub-par and he doesn’t get anyone else involved in the offense whilst being the primary ballhandler.
I think his defense will improve as well. But his lack of playmaking ability, even as a youngster, is SEVERELY lacking. McGrady, Kobe, VC, Roy, Dirk, Wade, Jordan, Drexler, pick your dominant perimeter player… they got others involved with their great scoring ability.
To me it seems like something that isn’t mentioned enough. His defense is bad and likely won’t be great, but that can be compensated for. But having your primary ballhandler not able to get others involved can’t be compensated for.
Right now he’s a rich man’s Kevin Martin, which is great but not one of the great perimeter players. And he has such a long way to go to be even a below average playmaker.
It would make him a great co-star
But if we’re talking about Durant as a potential MVP, potential all time great, like we all said before he was drafted, it’s a far cry from it.
He needs the ball to get his shots. He’d definitely give us another unstoppable weapon offensively, but most of his scoring would go wasted becayuse he won’t have the ball nearly as much.
And if he isn’t scoring, he isn’t doing enough otherwise.
He could still become that MVP level player, but as a focal point of a team’s offense, he’s lacking the ‘help your teammates’ skill.
I would love to have him
But the only thing he has done as well as I expected was score, which he is very good at.
I expected him to be a better passer and more focused defensively. Defense can improve, though.
Still a very good player
But just a scorer who doesn’t help others, and therefore a co-star.
Melo won’t ever be a MVP because he needs a playmaker next to him. That’s how I see Durant as well… he can’t help others, so he won’t be a true MVP level perimeter player.
Still an amazing scorer.
Bill Simmons thinks the Blazers have the most overrated roster in the league

Who would be happy today if we got both Nash and Hinrich?
and then outbid/over pay for B. Bass in a week?
Go Blazers!!!!!!!!!! Wooooooooooot Wooooooooooooot!!!!!!!!!
I'm sure I read somewhere where he said he didn't want to come to Portland.
But again I think that was during last season. Perhaps he has a change of mind now.
Nash said that?
I don’t recall that.
I remember it with Kidd, though.
I would expect Nash to fit in with Portland really well, culturally…
He said bad things about Terry Porter's new and "improved" offense
So by deduction you could argue he would hate Nate’s slow-paced style where he can’t let the player decide what plays to call. Maybe he would change his style for Nash. Maybe he wouldn’t.
Yeah, that'd be the thang
I wonder if Nash had a bigger problem with the pace, or if Porter was trying to call the play too often, removing Nash from using his judgement?
I know Nate has always glowed about Nash before, but it would appear to be an odd fit, for sure.
nash with lma and batum running the court would be nice...
Go Blazers!!!!!!!!!! Wooooooooooot Wooooooooooooot!!!!!!!!!
And Nash while not outright hating Shaq didn't like that he was supposed to play through him when he was on the floor
Oden might move a bit quicker than old Shaq, but he is not better at setting picks or getting in position yet. So I dunno if Nash wants to be the teacher to young Oden for the last years of his career.
Lets say Dallas trades Stackhouse and Barea and something to the Suns
Wouldn’t the Suns and Nash prefer that?
If Oden is in shape
I can see him being a bigger Amare, with the same good hands and willingness to dunk everything.
If he is in shape, he’d fit Nash really nice… as would LMA, of course.
If he’s plodding like last season, I’d say it wouldn’t fit as well… but Nash would like to win I hope.
And a big difference between Oden and Shq
Oden isn’t at the point, and won’t be this season, where you gotta pass it to him every time down court to get the most out of him, like with Shaq. Nash and Roy would still be the conduits, and Oden the finisher who will keep developing his passing game (which was pretty good, I say).
To me, if he is in shape, it is more similar to Amare before the ego, than old Shaq.
close to vancouver, bcq
where he has a vacation home near Whistler

Dirk gave a pretty good press conference in Germany as far as disaster management goes
Sounded like he will get over the whole affair.
I like Dirk
I totally wonder what the hell happened with that, but he’s always seemed like a good guy, a smart guy, and he’s one of the best of this generation.
He gets too much crap.
What was pretty crazy was that she originally called him and pretended to have called the wrong number. Then they phoned and e-mailed for a while before they met. The woman must have crazy social engineering skills. Life hacking.
There's just so much to this story
That isn’t being told.
What a weird way to have “met”. I didn’t know that part.
I need to follow the Kings thread when they are on the clock
The meltdown if they pass on Rubio could be more epic than last year. And that was pretty epic as far as open threads go.

If they don't want Hedo...
…on a team like that, VC would be an upgrade to Hedo since he’s still purty dang good!
Hmm!
Yeah, he makes a crap load
But, he’s a better playmaker than Hedo, and even a better defender when he wants to be…
Hmmmmmmmm. He’d fill the role Hedo played for the Magic, but be better at everything. Lotsa money, but if ya don’t wanna pay Hedo to do what VC can do better, and both are old… I’d pick VC.
Though I would, of course, worry about VC’s commitment and reputation for doggin’ it.
I think these days Hedo is the better playmaker
VC is pretty much just a jumpshooter now, Hedo played a lot of point- forward and ran the pick and roll really well with Dwight, plus Hedo banks in game winning 3’s

This "three threads" concept by Dave is nice on paper but leads to duplications in practice. As usual.
Less threads = better. Like during games, 1 thread per quarter is crazy uncomfortable.
Does the trade help at all the slim chance
of bringing Lebron to the Brooklyn Nets?

What's up everyone?
Still the calm before the storm (if it ever rolls in)?
Vince to Orlando would be an interesting replacement for Hedo.
With a little surgery Blake Griffin could look nice ;)
http://www.ehrlthepearl.com/2009/06/prior-to-game-1-of-nba-finals-we.html via Ball Don’t Lie
He looks like them after bad plastic surgery and too many steroids
Like what happened to Mickey Rourke.
Channing's head is filling out
Tatum, I mean.
Too much HGH and steroids? His head wasn’t so beefy before.
Might just be a bad pic.
you don't need clothes to be fashionable
Go Blazers!!!!!!!!!! Wooooooooooot Wooooooooooooot!!!!!!!!!
It's really the only reason I worry about him
Does he become a man, or is he one of those guys like Leonardo Dicaprio who always looks like a teenager? No matter what makeup, facial hair, or whatever you put on them, they look 19.
Scottie Pippen grew like 6 inches and his body filled out while in college, so Ricky could grow into a man body. I hope he does.
He needs to post nude pictures
Of his still-developing body, each month, so we can really see if he is filling out properly so our… worries… can be assuaged.
That will sell a lot of tickets in OKC/Sactown/NY/wherever
Dad, take me to the game. I want to see Rubio!
He's going to star in High School Musical 4
Or Grande Escuela Musicalo, Quatro.
That is a perfect translation.
Oh god, he is soooo young.
Didn’t he just turn 18?
I went to the malls and I balled too hard

Trying to do a search in these drunk drawers has been freezing my browser lately.
by chalupa king on Jun 25, 2009 3:04 PM PDT up reply actions
Firefox freezes at first, then works. I haven't tried IE. Chrome handles searching fine.
Just FYI. That includes the Firefox 3.5 RC.
I think it's more my laptop than the browser.
Firefox completely freezes when I do the search on my laptop. When doing a search on my desktop Firefox might lockup for a sec before completing the search.
by chalupa king on Jun 25, 2009 3:09 PM PDT up reply actions
I bet your laptop would eventually return too
It just might take 60 or 90 seconds (argh).
I don’t have that problem with Chrome, for the record. When I want to search through a thread, I use it instead of firefox.
I'm usually only on my laptop at work
So that means I will most likely also have Matlab and/or Adobe Illustrator open, and those two programs are resource hogs.

i hate that!
i usually already have a search term in there…say it’s
“dies”
if I want to search for “Prez” to see if people were talking about me, I just add Prez onto “dies” so it looks like
“diesPrez”
which obviously finds nothing. Then I delete the dies and it just has Prez, which works perfectly.
If you just start with nothing and type the “P” in prez, it searches for ALL the P’s and it takes foreeeeever.

I remember I was waiting for my surgery to begin on 9.11. I was sitting on a bed in the private waiting room when a nurse came in and turned on the t.v. to show us the first plane in the building. i got to watch the buildings collapse and the pentagon hit before my surgery started.

i hate that day...my heart sinks everytime i have to relive that memory
Go Blazers!!!!!!!!!! Wooooooooooot Wooooooooooooot!!!!!!!!!
Wow, that probably didn't do much to calm your nerves before surgery.
The day before 9/11 I had gotten my first pair of pointe shoes. So in the morning on 9/11 I snuck downstairs to try them on. When I came upstairs my parents called as in their bedroom and we watched all the planes crashing in their bed. That day has two different sides to it. First day I had seen a true american tragedy in my lifetime and also the first day I got to wear pointe shoes. The only good part of that is that when I am filling out an application for an audition and they ask how many years I have been on pointe I never have to think very hard for the date I started.

Since it looks like Michael Jackson is really dead,
here’s a video you should watch. It’s famous and I’m sure many have seen it many times before. But it’s really amazing when you realize the culture impact of this single performance. He changed everything with this performance, I think.

He’s clearly lipsynching. And except for 10 seconds of moonwalking, the only dancing he does is to wiggle his ankle back and forth repeatedly. I know he was talented, but that performance doesn’t look iconic to me at all.

I was thrown out of the Willamette Week offices while trying to get a freelance job.
I was called a promising young record producer by that same newspaper.
I was in the bushes outside Kenny Chesney’s house.
I was told to buzz off by Colin Powell.
I once accepted a hitch-hike ride from a man wearing no pants (on condition he kept his distance … I got out after two blocks, glad I wasn’t a Law and Order SVU episode).
I nearly got into a fist fight with a Senator.
I fielded a ball in an international cricket test match.

Rohan, atthehive, on Blair. (He was a big Blair guy pre-draft)
Then Portland- widely rumored to have traded up to get him- passed on him. Sacramento passed on him. Dallas passed on him. Oklahoma City passed on him. Chicago- widely rumored to be drafting Blair at 16- passed on him at 26. Even the staunchest advocate of Blair had to have recognized something here. And then ten more teams passed. Fifteen times in all, he was passed over. There’s some identified or unidentified issue with Blair that teams are scared of. It might be his knees. It might be the fact that his ACL’s are supposedly not visible in MRIs do not exist. It might that people don’t think his sudden and huge weight loss is sustainable. It might be that he lived on a mostly junk food diet for most of his college career. Sure, the Spurs wound up taking him. They’ve been absolute geniuses at drafting. But this smells more of “he couldn’t have dropped any lower” than it does of the Spurs knowing something nobody else does. The Hornets came to the same conclusion that more than half the NBA did. This includes teams that worked him out multiple times, with enough scrutiny to considering drafting him in the lottery. I trust in that collective wisdom.
good luck dejuan blair

That's how I see it
It is extremely curious. I don’t think the Spurs were any smarter than anyone else in regards to Blair… it’s just a no-risk draft pick. If they really wanted him they would have made sure to get him, not just let him fall in their lap.
I wonder what the deal is… Portland is NOT the only team that needs a dude like him.

Wow
I realise he has a unique insider’s view, and I’m just a homer from Spain, but wow. After reading the article, it seems he was a cancer in the locker room, where I thought he was one of the friendliest guys there (big support for Rudy, bff with LMA, his laid-back attitude).
I try to think that him liking Bayless (which I think can be a good player but hasn’t demostrated a thing yet) had nothing to do with it, but I don’t know. I’m just a bit baffled.
I was at the thread when that happenned
Then I went over to StR and they were freaking out…
So Rubio isn’t going to play NBA this year?? I thought people said he was getting traded.
the problem lies in the buyout with Joventut
being chosen in #5 is less salary + Minnesota = i think he’ll stay one more year and try to come to an agreement with Villacampa (Joventut GM).
Minny has chosen 3 PG, so someone is getting traded. Maybe if Rubio gets traded to the Knicks he’ll come next season.
yea
it really is. I hope this gives him energy to prove his doubters wrong, starting with the Eurobasket next fall.
