JD- 8/21-I Can't Be The Only One!

The idea behind this Junk Drawer is simple: name something you do (keep it clean, please) that you don't think anyone else does. Or, if you're not sure you're unique just list a quirk, peccadillo, or strange habit you have. Revel in your weirdness!
I'll start. I hardly ever focus my attention on what I'm "watching" on TV. I'll turn on a show I like, but then go to my computer and surf the interwebz. I do the same thing with media on my computer.
I think I'm the only person in my generation (which I'll call the i-pod generation for these purposes) who doesn't constantly listen to music in my room. I like the sound of silence.
I talk to myself all the time. It's not crazy mumblings though....more like narrating my own life.
I almost never finish a meal in one sitting. I'll eat half my food and then save it for later (usually not more than an hour). I hear multiple small meals keep your metabolism high.
When I type I cannot leave basic words misspelled. I go back and fix words as soon as I notice that I've misspelled them. This is part of a larger writing quirk. I try to make each sentence "perfect" as I go. Essentially, I don't need to do drafts or do much proofreading because I spend so much time on the first go through.
That's all I have for now.
If I use farkle in a sentence I get a cookie.

I like to get sleep deprived and then watch one of the more challenging Lynch films
I almost dont want to post this fact
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
I will talk about DeJuan Blair no more forever
I hated Lynch movies for quite a while after that one
I didnt watch Mullholland drive till 2006, and it is awesome. My hatred only hurt me in this case.

I also narrate my life, but I also have a midget biographer who accompanies me on all of my journeys so that I am not technical talking to myself. Okay. I don’t actually have a biographer — midget or otherwise; also, that’s not a smoking microphone in my hand.

I'm totally not skinny!
Although I might go back to being skinny this winter. I tend to lose weight in the winter months for whatever reason. I got really skinny last winter, like 135ish. I never look really skinny though, because I have a wide frame and broad shoulders. I’m 155ish right now, but I put on probably 10lbs of muscle or so this summer.

Oh, I thought of another one
I imagine myself smashing my car into things and people when I drive. That minivan has a huge dent in the side? That’s because I just rammed it with my car. Pedestrians taking too long in the cross walk? Swerve and run them over! I get bored I guess. I grew up with action movies, special effects and grant theft auto video games. These scenarios just pop into my head.
I swear I’m not crazy.
"It’s a good ol’ fashioned Rip City beat down!"
Also, because of the Grand Theft Auto games
(games I’ve only played a little bit and never got deep into because of time constraints, but I really enjoyed them) I see jumps everywhere while driving.
If I back up, I can get up to 100 and hit that loading ramp for that truck just right…
It is very tempting.

I would imagine everything was a snowboard jump. Freeway exits are perfect for that.
I get the paper, so I don't care!
lol
My only thing with the car is that I prefer to have the door I sit next to locked, out of fear that it might swing open when moving.
The other total irrational fear I have is alien abduction. Zombies, creatures, ghosts, ghouls, Y2k, global warming, nuclear profliration, 2012 etc none of that freaks me out but aliens creepin on me during my sleep. That I can’t totally let go of. Came up when when I saw the trailer for The Fourth Kind

When I was 13
I had a very freaky dream where I was “awake” but couldn’t move, and some creatures were walking in and out of my closet and messing with my feet. I kept trying to scream or turn on the light, but I was frozen and could only watch these creatures move in and out of the shadows and mess with my legs and feet.
I believe I was in that inbetween sleep-awake weird phase that can happen where your body is in sleep paralysis but you woke up during it somehow, and you can be stuck in a dream or mix the two. It was weird. It felt so real.
The same year I had a very similar dream, where I was “awake” but couldn’t move, and outside my window was a bright light and a flash and an explosion sound, and then quiet. I thought an atom bomb had gone off, and that the world was destroyed. I said to myself “so this is what it feels like to be dead… it isn’t that bad, I guess”.
I haven’t had a awake-paralysed-dream since that year. I felt silly since I was a 13 year old kid, but I hated looking at my closet and wouldn’t leave it open at night after seeing the creatures go in and out of it in that dream.
Eek
That’s creepy. I’m lucky I don’t remember any nightmares from when I was kid, or even if I had them. I very rarely have nightmares anyways.
The closest moment I had to the whole being dead thing is maybe 3 years ago now, where I literally felt like I had one of those “ego death” experiences, Moksha, nirvana, whatever have you. I was just sitting in front of my computer and then it was like my mind had stretched to cover the entirety of all existence.

Usually if I am in an uncomfortable social situation, I will think to myself, "What if I kicked this person in the shin? Or spit on their shoes? Or tried to tweak their nose?"
Not quite running people over, but it usually makes me almost laugh at inappropriate times…
I do a similar sentence/misspelling thing
I type very fast, and usually accurate, but when I mistype something I have to delete everything that came after it (except for special situations) or the words that came after it are cursed.
I sing to my dog and to my wife silly made up songs. My family always does silly rhyming games so I can rhyme quick-like.
I give myself little games to play throughout the day that engage in magical thinking— stuff like, “can’t grab the poop bag in my back pocket until the first Mercury poop hits the ground” or “must throw the bag of poop PERFECTLY in the corner of the dumpster so the Blazers will win tonight”. If I can toss/shoot my rolled up sock into my shoes from across the room, I win and get (blank).
I obsessively check my pockets for my keys, cell phone, and wallet. This helped me that one time I got pickpocketed in Pamplona because I knew my wallet had to have just been taken… it enabled me to know who it was and find the person and get my stuff back.
I feel like I must always be drinking something, and usually always cold. I just don’t like to not be drinking something. I drink a lot of water and diet soda.
I do the magical game thing too
Like if I kick this rock and it goes up the driveway that means she likes me.
And the wallet, cell phone, ipod thing. Too. WHAT. We are twins. That comes in handy though, I tend to have very random thoughts that I like to entertain, and will forget obvious things like that otherwise.

Diet Coke with Splenda does as well, but I don’t like how it tastes.
All Diet Shasta products do, and almost every diet energy drink does except for Diet Red Bull.

I do exactly the same thing with television.
I stream constant King of Queens in my room while surfing the net (read: Blazersedge) and ignore the visual aspect completely.

Me too
Not King of Queens (not really a sitcom fan, except for Reba), but I always gotta have noise… especially at night, or my thoughts drive me crazy. I get a lot of ’em.
I like to put on the Science channel while I work, or stuff like that that I DVR’d… last night’s Conan, Daily Show, Colbert, etc, though I like to pay attention to those more than not.
Like Norsktroll brought up a few months ago, it seems like I have to maximize my time. Not only surf the net and work, but I gotta watch something too and chat at the same time. Gotta do it all or I feel like I’m missing out.
It’s a sickness?
When it's dark, I hate coming back into a house or apartment I know is empty
I often think someone could be there waiting for me, or I might surprise a robber. I first have to check all rooms and behind doors to be sure. I also don’t like being home alone when the windows look into the dark. I prefer letting down the window jalousies then.
I hate windows where people can look into my place
I enjoy windows with a view, but street level windows or in a position where anyone can look in I don’t like.
I keep the blinds down because I like me privacy.
Sometimes I get a feeling and have to check all rooms when alone… but not often. However, a few weeks ago, I had a creepy instance that made me check everything… I woke up to go to the bathoom, and I think I hear something in the living room. Now, my eyes must have been playing tricks on me, but it totally looked like (in the dim moon light and shadows) that a very bony old woman was sitting on my couch and breathing heavily (couldn’t hear it, but it looked like the movement of someone breathing heavy).
I got that adrenaline rush you get when something unexpected like that happens, and quickly turn on the hallway light. Nuthin’ there. It was just my tired eyes turning nuthin’ into creepiness. It seemed so solid and bony and creepy; for a split moment I was convinced someone had broke in and was just sitting on my couch.
Even though I knew it was just my imagination, I checked every corner of the place and checked the locks twice.
Yeah, it’s not all the time, and about never when I come back just from shopping groceries, mainly when I was away longer. And sometimes I lock my bedroom door when I get that feeling.
I know someone who came home and found a guy who had come in over his terrace and was sleeping on his couch. Being a true child of web 2.0, he filmed him and tweeted about.
I've always had a fear of seeing a face in a window, like right up against it. I'd almost rather be surprised by someone inside my house.
There’s just something really sinister and frightening about a face in a window.
FYI, I am the face in the window, not my husband!

Fact: She's a terrible person.
If I were conservative I CERTAINLY wouldn’t claim her as one of my own… that is, unless I was a conservative who didn’t like Jewish people or the families of 9-11 victims… anyway…
You got me curious about this latest Ann Coulter incident, so I looked it up.
Here’s a transcript of the conversation she had with Donny Deutsch on his TV show to which you all apparently are referring.
I don’t know much about Ann Coulter, but she apparently is a Christian. I’m a Christian too (a poor example of one, I know, but there you go…) and I think I understand what she was trying to say about Jews needing to be perfected.
- The Bible states that all of us are sinners (Romans 3:23), that we all have a sin nature. Jews aren’t perfect. Neither are Muslims, atheists, Rotarians, or Christians.
- No one becomes perfect (without sin) when they accept Christ as their lord and savior. The desire to sin is in us until we die. When a non-Christian dies, he goes to a godless eternity (Hell). When a Christian dies, God gives us a new, sinless, perfect body and nature. Until that moment, no perfection.
- When we put our faith in Christ, our sins are forgiven, but our sin nature does not go away because it is part of our body and mind. A Jew is not perfected by becoming a Christian anymore than a Coke becomes a Pepsi when you pop the tab. Ms. Coulter used a poor choice of words when she said that Jews become perfected by becoming Christians.
- The Biblical idea of perfection in this life is simply that, once saved, we are to continually submit outselves to God for him to make us more like Christ. We can’t do it without him. The more we strive to know God and submit to him, the more Christ-like we become. Perfection is a destination we can’t reach in this life, but we are to desire the goal and try to make progress in that direction by following Christ in all ways.
- I’m guessing that for some of you, the word perfected as Ms. Coulter used it is some kind of right-wing, Christian code for exterminated. If so, you need to examine your own motives in flapping and screeching over such a ridiculous idea as Ms. Coulter advocating the extermination of Jews.
- I’m also guessing that it offends some of you that any Christian would ever think that it would be a great idea for everyone to become a Christian. I suppose you’d have no problem with the idea that everyone should be a liberal or a Democrat, if you think those are good things to be, but it’s terrible for Christians to want non-believers to be saved?
Demonization of those with whom you disagree is as big a sin for liberals as it is for conservatives.

I’m sorry Miled, but she knowingly lies all the time to advance herself and her career. She’s a bad person.

Just go to any factchecker site of left or right
She plays the make-em-ups game, over and over and over. And does it on purpose.
Yup
Just because I think Ann Coulter who personifies herself as a hateful, fear mongering demagogue does mean I am demonizing her. She is who she is, someone who says things, at times, I don’t even think she believes in, to get publicity and attention.

Like I wrote above, I haven't read much of her stuff,
but the few pieces I have read seemed no better or worse to me than anything that I’ve read from other writers on both sides of the political aisle.
I will say this: her poor choice of words in the interview transcript I linked above makes me wonder if she should stick to writing instead of live interviews, where she can be more precise; and whether she is trying to stir the pot to improve her visibility. If so, I can see why folks on the Left would find her obnoxious.
In any case, demonizations and generalizations usually serve no one well. Except for the jerks who cut me off in traffic, of course.
Right
Like writing about how we should “We should invade their (Muslim) countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity.”

She wrote that column two days after 9/11
during which a good friend of hers was killed. Have you never said or done anything in the heat of anger that you later regretted? I would cut her some slack on that one.
To me, it's not her opinions
It’s her willingness to lie and knowingly do so.
She can have opinions I don’t agree with, I don’t mind. I hate hate hate distortions of facts, especially on purpose.
And for lies and being wildly incorrect or fabricating stuff, ya just have to go to a fact check website. I’m not trying to say you can’t like her if ya wanna, but man… she is a bad person.
You’ll notice Jake Snake 99 not claim her as an alumni to Cornell ;-)
To me it goes beyond personal politics
She makes it a stupid game, where whoever can say the worst thing about the other person wins.
She is definitely not a devout Christian in any original meaning of the word, if that is an important criteria you
http://www.commondreams.org/views06/0610-23.htm
Not sure if she can be also accused of adultery, but constantly and knowingly lying, omitting and distorting things she knows better is definitely among her sins. She even lied on her voter registration form.
That she would write a book called “Godless” accusing others of being so is among the bigger ironies.
Ann Coulter certainly seems to have
got under the skin of a few folks here. As I wrote above, I’ve only read two or three of her essays over the years and none of her books, so I’m not in a position to defend her, but at the same time I’m not going to slam her just because a chorus of voices on a blog, most of whom I am guessing don’t see eye-to-eye with me on most issues, think Coulter is the Devil Incarnate.
Whether Coulter is a Christian is irrelevant to how I view what she writes. If you don’t like what she says and writes, fine, but insinuating that she may be an adulterer, or stating that she’s a loon, or a tramp, or a terrible person, or worst of all, that she has an adam’s apple, is demonizing her.
I don’t care enough about her to demonize her, and as I don’t get Fox News & Co regularly she is also little on my TV screen. I just find it ironic and rather appalling how she criticizes others for things she does herself.
As for her love life, I’m in no position to criticize her, just quote her:
“I’ve been engaged many times. Four, I think. But I’m not like every other American. I thought I’d meet the right person before getting married and having children.”
Who were these dumped fiancés? “Oh, I don’t even remember all of them. I really don’t think about exes five minutes after they’ve gone.”
She loves New York, because it’s “full of single people in their thirties”
I'm not politically driven
For the most part I ignore everything that she says on Mortimer’s grounds. But, if you were to learn everything from what has been provided in today’s JD (Your link, my link) you can see a running thread within her ideology—An ideology that at the very least suggests hierarchy of its own beliefs over those of others. Further, you see her methodology of using one paradigm of beliefs to judge those of another, which appears wrong to me, both within her own system and in any dialectic epistemological pursuit. To put it another way, she’s a Chimera, multi-faced, spewing poison.

Ann Coulter has an adams apple. Sorry, but I’m not the first to speculate on her gender. That’s been going around for years. Look at photos of her.

I am surprised that you would speculate about Ann Coulter that way. I’ve had transgender surgery myself (Democrat to Republican). I know how hurtful such jokes can be.
Really, Miled, I'm not joking. It's been speculated
on for years and I’m surprised you haven’t seen anything like that. I’ve read many or at least several references to her adams apple and I’ve seen photos, although, these days who knows if they’ve been photoshopped.

There's no way that Ann Coulter is transgender, ...
but it wouldn’t shock me to learn the ultraconservative political pundit is intersex. Yet, I wouldn’t bet on it. For what it’s worth, my money is on Jamie Lee Curtis and Stefani Germanotta being of ambiguous gender.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.
Jaimie Lee Curtis is known to be a bit of a hybrid
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
I will talk about DeJuan Blair no more forever
There's no verification, but all the evidence ...
makes me believe Jamie Lee Curtis is indeed a hermaphrodite. The androgynous name and how Christopher Guest and her have adopted children indicate that she’s not 100% a she.
Anyway, with regards to most intersex people, some surgery soon after birth and horomonal supplements throughout their life can make it easy to pull off being a female.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.
It's possible that Ann Coulter is an intersex person, even ...
though there’s isn’t any proof whether or not that’s the case.
Regardless, there are many famous women who’ve been accused of being assigned their gender via surgery and/or hormonal supplements after being born a hermaphrodite.
Jamie Lee Curtis
Stefani Germanotta
Ciara Harris
Ann Coulter
I’d personally wager that Curtis and Germanotta are intersex, while Harris and Coulter are 100% female. That’s just my guess, though, but I’ve got reasons for those assumptions.
Curtis: http://www.snopes.com/movies/actors/jamie.asp
Germanotta’s YouTube video with supposed evidence of intersexuality is quasi-NSFW, so here’s some lyrics from “Poker Face.”
“I wanna roll with him a hard pair we will be
A little gambling is fun when you’re with me (I love it)
Russian Roulette is not the same without a gun”
[…]
“Cause I’m bluffin’ with my muffin
I’m not lying I’m just stunnin’ with my love glue-gunning”
http://www.songfacts.com/lyrics.php?findsong=14199
On a final note, Germanotta should change that nickname to “Sir Lady GaGa” if the rumors are true.
Stupid people have stupid ideas.

I wasn't trying to be snarky
I just associate L & L with Walmart. I think it is the only one I’ve been to and I don’t know where Cedar Hills is.
In the Seattle area I drove about 20 minutes to work one way.
One day I decided to leave the radio off. I never turned it back on. Not that I quit entirely, but it’s good to listen to your own thoughts – some people never do.
I still rarely listen to anything on my way to work.
I know I just got here – but good night everyone. I scrolled through yesterdays junk w/o reading – just wanted to see everybody’s face. Looks like Norsk quit drinking “Bill beer”, that was Walton on the can – right?
Romance me with that Roy rainbow shot which took flight from way beyond the arc and sailed so high that before it came back down to earth sealing the victory, it kissed the rafters and said "You're mine baby."
I had two cars in a row with no radio
now I’m glad I have one. But sometimes I leave it off, just to remember the old days. – Elgin

a few of my quirks:
i guess not having a cell phone qualifies.
often times, when I’m making a sandwich or something in the kitchen, i get the urge to sing the Age of Aquarius song. And then sometimes I do.
I do the Age of Aquarius thing to
But I like to mix in gansta rap lyrics like, “Get in where you fit in fool, I’ve been pimping since elementary school”
I get the paper, so I don't care!
This is my favorite verse to do that with:
“You don’t know me, fool
You disown me, cool
I don’t need your assistance, social persistence
Any problem I got I just put my fist in
My life is violent but violent is life
Peace is a dream, reality is a knife”
It is fun to recite that as if I was reading classic poetry.

When I was a little kid, I used to stare at the girl who sat in desk next to me as she picked her nose and would eat the boogers. It grossed me out so bad that I vowed I would NEVER touch food with my pointer finger. To this day, I still use my thumb and middle finger to pick up food.

Apparently Thailand was at one point heavily influenced by the Khmer empire in Cambodia, who themselves were heavily influenced by Hinduism. In the wiki page it says Hinduism was an official state religion of Khmer along with Buddhism until the 13th century.

Since I spent a year in Cambodia, and a month in Bangkok, I can say for certain, they are very much Theravada. Statues of Hindu gods everywhere, and most of the Angkor Wat complex is dedicated to your friendly gods Shiva and Krisna.

Sources close to the Wolves and thesportsbank.net believe the chances of Rubio playing in Minnesota continue to increase by the day. With Kahn in Spain this week, a deal appears to be nearing completion and the announcement could be coming soon.
One possible delay for any Rubio announcement would be the news of Brett Favre signing with the Minnesota Vikings this week. The Vikings have grabbed all the national headlines and if Rubio does announce that he is coming to Minnesota, the Timberwolves likely will steal some national attention even now, a few months before the season begins.
Yeah, right…
Now NY media is probably scrambling to make up another “Rubio to NY” rumor.
too good to be true… I think we have our backup power forward. C’mon KP, he’s available!

I think he’s one of the better basketball minds on the site… he may have different thoughts than most, but they’re logically founded. He’s just a bit abrasive, leading to the very distinctive identity he has on Sonicscentral.
"If the Lakers are Hollywood, then we are South Central." - Clipper fan.
I think he is great for players he has no emotionally vested interest in, but when he has that interest things derail fairly quickly
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.
I will talk about DeJuan Blair no more forever
I usually agree with AK
But when he likes someone or hates someone, just like anyone else his biases color his opinion. His favorites get the benefit of the doubt, while he hopes Bayless dies in a fire.
AK is the first to tell us he is human, so it’s okay.
I have to confess that, although at first his
arrogance grated on me, now it just makes me smile. He’s a good boy at heart but he likes to think of himself as a maverick. It’s cute and I’d miss him if he left. He’s intelligent and has a lot of BB knowledge. Someone needs to take a pumice stone to his people skills sometimes but, bottom line, you can count on an honest response from his POV.

He doesn't mind black players though
As long as they’re on the end of the bench and sticking to their own kind.
I think it's sorta the chicken and the egg
He likes hard noses, hustling tough players, and it just so happens those guys are usually white because if you aren’t that athletic you have to make up for it by having a hard nose and hustling and being tough.
I think we should spread a rumor
And everyone will agree and spread the rumor that AK’s favorite player is Rashad McCants.
It should be a player who is at least a credible defender
Andrei Kirilenko. Darius Songaila. Sam Dalembert. All have on/off stats even above Foster.
I just think it'd be funny if he loves all these defense focused tough nosed guys
But his favorite black player is a undersized useless gunner like Rashad McCants.
Indeed, moreover
If you surround a true superstar in the making such as Rashad Tiberius McCants with the skilled and hard working role players a scorer such as him deserves, that team would indeed, however, moreover, win the title.

You could add that the K in AK stands for Kardashian, and he is Kloe’s step brother from the first marriage of Bruce Jenner, and initially just liked McCants because he was with his sister but now it’s much more… (that was Kloe Kardashian if I’m not mistaken).

They aren't even good at classic British sport soccer. Only cricket.
India qualified by default for the 1950 FIFA World Cup finals as a result of the withdrawal of all of their scheduled opponents. However, they did not take up their place in the competition because FIFA demanded all players at the World Cup finals should wear football boots. A number of the Indian players refused to abide by this rule and the team was forced to withdraw. The team has never since come close to qualifying for the World Cup.1
India finished 4th in the football tournament at the 1956 Melbourne Olympics, won the 1951 & 1962 Asian Games Gold medal and reached the semi-finals in the next two Asian Games tournaments in what became known as the golden era of Indian football. 2

Thanks. This sentence in the original article makes no geographic sense to me. What am I missing?
Seattle isn’t as big or as glitzy as New York, Los Angeles, Chicago or Miami, but none of them are less than two hours from the beach and the mountains.
Seattle: Mountains, check. Beach, check (cool water)
NY: Mountains, kind of (Catskills, etc.). Beach, check (not exactly known for it, but there are beaches)
LA: Mountains, not really. What is the next good ski resort, Lake Tahoe? Beach, check
Chicago: Mountains? Beach, well, lakeshore and I’m sure there is some beach, check (freezing much of the year)
Miami: Mountains? In Florida??? Beach, check check.
Seattle and LA I can speak from lots of experience.
Seattle has awesome beaches within 2 hours and wonderful water. It also has a giant mountain really close by.
LA has nice beaches but you have to drive further (still within 2 hours though). The closer beaches are disgusting.
LA DOES have skiing and a giant mountain within two hours.
There are no mountains east of the rocky mountains, so obviously all of the other cities fail. I’ve been to the Smokey Mountains and the App. range. They are NOT really mountains.

right below my temple. I have a huge bump that looks funny and hurts a bunch.

Desmond Mason won't be back with Thunder

We value and appreciate Desmond’s contributions to the Thunder," said Thunder general manager Sam Presti. "However, at this time it is important for us to retain flexibility with our roster as we move into training camp. This was a difficult decision, certainly not the last one we will be faced with. But at this point in time we wanted to make sure we communicated with Desmond on our thought process so he could focus on other opportunities."
Not that we need another forward (although he is athletic and a decent defender). Just another sign that OKC is saving money, too, and not yet really in a mode trying to make the playoffs (they might) and then actually achieve something there (they won’t).
Blazer’s Edge today announced a trade of Ben Golliver to Welcome To Loud City for cash considerations and a future SBN first round blogger draft pick. Dave Deckard: “We are sorry to see Ben go, but he wanted to fulfill his lifelong dream of covering an exciting team that plays with passion and not a slow boring one that will win titles.”
In unrelated news, Bill Simmons hinted at moving his family and dog to Oklahoma City in his latest podcast, saying “they assured me there are Subways and DirecTV also in The City That Shall Not Be Named. And it’s closer to Boston. And I can visit Marc Stein in Dallas to mock Nowitzki more often”.

as long as you can fit in speculative claims that your analysis provides unsubstantiated proof that Oden is or is not a bust, then it should qualify as a fanpost.
"...the primary focus of all obstacles is to induce labor, so progression can be born." - LiL C
I already did that last season
Greg Oden = Robert Parish (HOF, 4x NBA champion, 9x NBA All-Star). The only other rookie with more than 500 points, 400 rebounds, and 65 blocks in under 1400 minutes played. Since 1946.
that was a great read
we should start a movement to call Oden “The Chief” because I love it when people reuse nicknames!
see, if you can use Durant stats and Oden stats to say why Oden is better for us than Durant in every possible universe.. .that would make a great fan post
"...the primary focus of all obstacles is to induce labor, so progression can be born." - LiL C
Hey .....I just remembered that Oden and Durant were selected 1-2
in the 2007 draft. Someone should do a comparison of the two and maybe ask which is better

woah really?!?!
I forgot about that!!!! Do you think that maybe one of them is a bust? That would be a headline (at least on Yahoo! sports)
SPECULATIVE ANALYSIS* REVEALS ODEN > DURANT; PRITCHARD SAYS DUH
"...the primary focus of all obstacles is to induce labor, so progression can be born." - LiL C
remember when i posted that thing about sinks?
this one wins
"It was like some sort of crazy torture in the movies. How do people do that so long without taking a breath? I think my ears are still ringing."
