Ahhh I hate losing. My little semi pro b ball team just lost in the finals, game 5. It's a 5 game series. We lost by 3. One of our guys was at the free throw line while we were down 2 with 12 seconds to go and he made the first and missed the second. We had to foul and couldn't tie on the last shot. Losing is the worst. Fuck I hate it. I guess the only good thing is I get to start working out hard again during the off season. Shit is frustrating though.

Thanks Pitts. I thought it was deactivated. I just signed in and it said someone from Mexico was trying to access my account. Anyway, that was a good trip down memory lane Matt (forget his sh name) married his college gf. One of our last convos was about his relationship and how he really liked her. So sweet.

Amara is still pretty. I thought to creep on her for a bit but too tired.

I printed out your photo first. I now keep it on my pillow.

This story about the 21 year old black kid who was handcuffed from behind in a cop car somehow shot himself in the head is really pissing me off.

Here is an article about it

Despite what critics are calling an acute improbability with an implausible explanation, Arkansas officials have ruled the death of a 21-year-old man a suicide after he was found shot in the back of a police cruiser — even though he was handcuffed from behind and had been searched twice for weapons.
Officials say Chavis Carter, 21, was picked up by authorities on July 29 during a traffic stop in Jonesboro, Ark., while riding in a pickup truck with friends. The other two men were let go, but Carter was held on a felony warrant from Mississippi once police discovered he had given them a fake name. A police report says he was placed in the back of the patrol car with handcuffs on and his hands behind his back; later, officers returned to the car to find that he’d been shot in the head. He was taken to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.
While Jonesboro police admit the circumstances are “bizarre,” they maintain that Carter committed suicide while in the car with a weapon he’d somehow concealed. They later released a reenactment video showing an officer of about Carter’s height and weight demonstrating how he might have shot himself. A dashboard camera video shows Carter being led from the vehicle by police, but showing no signs of resistance. Police say he was found with a small amount of marijuana, and a few small plastic bags to package them. There are no apparent sounds of a gunshot on the video and it does not show the moment any weapons were fired.
But the autopsy report, released Monday by the Arkansas State Crime Lab, backs up what police have said. It describes Carter as having marks on his hands consistent with being handcuffed and of an entrance wound to the right temple and an exit wound to the left. The report does not mention any gunshot residue found on his hands, which would be consistent with having fired a weapon. Nor does it place blame on anyone but Carter himself.

In consideration of the circumstances of death and after autopsy of the body, it is our opinion that Chavis Carter, a 21-year-old black male, died of a gunshot wound of the head. The agencies responsible for the investigation of his death were the Jonesboro Police Department and the Craighead County Coroner’s Office. They reported that he was detained during a traffic stop. He was cuffed and placed into a police car, where apparently he produced a weapon, and despite being handcuffed, shot himself in the head.​

A toxicology report says Carter had tested positive for methamphetamine, oxycodone and marijuana, but showed he had not been drinking on the night of his death.
The two arresting officers, as well as the two friends of Carters whom they let go, are white. The police report says officers searched Carter, but not the two friends, aged 18 and 19. The truck they were driving was searched.
In an e-mail sent by Jonesboro Police to TIME, officials say investigative parts of the incident report, search warrant returns and cell phone videos have not been released yet.
Carter’s mother isn’t buying the police’s version of the story, however. Theresa Carter told CNN that while her son was shot in the right side of the head — which the autopsy report supports — he was actually left-handed. In addition, she says, he called his girlfriend and told her he would contact her once he was released from custody. “They searched him twice,” she said. “I just want to know what really happened.”

But wtf. How does this autopsy prove anything? All that's running through my head is the beginning of Don't Die on Killer Mike's new album when the skit says "The only reason they do to us what they do is cus we tolerate it." Damn it's upsetting

Look at this pretty motherfucker. With the right lighting and the right angle you can see his filthy reddish albino eyes

how many good comic book movies has there been? three. all nolan. why be surprised? lol

Dark Knight Rises was shit. Terrible script, terrible editing, no sense of time, terrible character development, redundant story, massive plot holes, spat in the face of the story and point of Dark Knight.

 

[S O F I]

ok, two good comic book movies.

Avengers was good.
X-Men 2 and X-Men: First Class was good.

I have faith that Man of Steel will be good.

The 1997 Steel was perhaps the greatest movie ever.

So here's something.

I lost my Stacy Adams boots, but a Peruvian stripper bought me shots.
It's completely P.I.M.P-ology, except the whole losing my Stacy Adams part.

Do we think Lance Armstrong was doping?

 

[ARon]

Yeah, why not?

If the evidence was so weak as everyone is saying then he would pull their card and beat it but there must be some truth to it if he gives up. And this is a pro athlete. You have to be mad competitive to achieve that level of success, you don't just give up like that.

Imagine if he wasn't white though, would this even be a question?

 

[Pittsey]

But....

He has obviously passed tons of drug tests over the years, and he is no longer competing, so what would a test prove now?

I obviously haven't read a lot about, not any good articles anyway, so what am I missing?

Edit - See this quote -

From his return to cycling in the fall of 2008 through March 2009, Armstrong submitted to 24 unannounced drug tests by various anti-doping authorities. All of the tests were negative for performance-enhancing drugs.

When you are successful there is a lot of hate and jealousy. I feel he has been a victim of his own successes. Much like the GB cycling team when the French accused them of having "special wheels".

 

[ARon]

A lot of it is talk about masking agents that were also being taken. Regardless it is no like an athlete to us give up like that. Something is up

 

[Rukas]

Look, EVERY contending cyclist is doping.

Id argue that the majority of competitive athletes dope in the off-season. No normal human being can train 12 hours a day day in and day out.

I can see that. The later comment. Some of the track athletes are so ripped and so big that I find it hard to believe they get that way naturally.
