The media does this to us (Lakers fans) all the time. Of course we have no shot at Love, Aldridge or Jordan. Why would they choose to go to worse teams to make less money. The only times we get good deals on free agents is when we get the 10 million a year guy to take a 5 million one year deal. We then overpay them…

There is still not enough space. I just quickly looked at the numbers and with the cap holds they just can’t do it. Having two max players (Aldridge and Leonard) makes it almost impossible.

How many profitable things did the stadiums have to pass on?

Before he died Malcolm X did say he went about it the wrong way.

Good list.

My D would not getting funding till we made it clear he had a chance. All you need to do is make it plausible that your D could win in a swing election and you will have enough funding to have a shot.

He already has the big man lazyness problem. The I don't really care if we win or lose that stuck with Wilt, Shaq, Howard, Bynum, Swift, and on and on. It's just going to get worse.

Well said. You didn't flip my opinion, but you made a good argument. :)

Why haven’t they traded Cousins? He will eventually leave anyway. Players don’t forget. Vlade has openly tried to trade him. He is not exactly going to give it his all for a team that would trade him.

True true my friend. :)

Lol. I know.

No, Malcolm X was big. He got people to listen. We trusted him.

Good post.

Lol. True

A couple years ago a tea party shit head was following me around to black churches to get his message out. He was getting the job done. Talking about gays was his game and he had good game. He wasn't registering them to vote, because he didn't want them to vote. He just wanted them to stay home.

No no no!

It should really just be held in the U.S.

No! Gerrymandering sucks but districts with 70% minorities are still being represented by racist Rs. The DNC has almost given up on Texas turning blue because they can’t get people outside Dallas, Austin, San Antonio,... to vote.

The fear that they think they are being taken over by “us” gave us the tea party. Real right wing presidential candidates say “they want their country back”. The fear makes them more crazy.

We just disagree here. Malcolm X really just scarred white people. When they saw black people with guns they thought race war. When they saw MLK they saw a trouble maker who had a good cause.
