    I love it when liberal idiots on Wiki claim segregation as a horrible situation in the south, but totally ignore the segregation that existed and still exists north of the Mason-Dixon line. It's like those in the north have some kind of purity that will never exist in the south. Notice how much of the racial unrest occurs in the north (blue states and cities)? Some of our posters here think more time and money will solve those problems.
    Didn’t you claim him from WEST Monroe Louisiana earlier?

    Even Dr. King was shocked at what happened the last few years of his life when he led protests in Chicago and Boston.

    It's the popular thing to do. Face it....it's like being in the 7th grade all over again: If you're a professional athlete and you don't go along with the crowd and kneel, you'll be ostracized, and treated like you have the plague. If you don't believe me, just ask Drew Brees!

    I never denied Magic got plenty of calls or non-calls his way. I think Jordan is the best ever, but I feel he got plenty of calls. Superstars get away with things regular players do not. Exception being the Saints,of course.

    it wasn’t just a big man beating up on everybody either. His footwork and passing ability were unmatched. he had 13 rebounds to go with what would have been a 25 of 26 night under the current rules. he also missed the last couple of minutes because of injury, Which ultimately became the story of his career.

    That was his 60th straight win as a collegiate.

    Career NCAA stats:

    It is a shame he had injury riddled career. If healthy his numbers would rank with the all-time greats. Monster game against Memphis.

    You are free and able to edit Wikipedia. Go for it.

    Are you refuting Bill Russell’s claims?

    That’s an interesting take.

    Do you think Russell is a Johnny-come-lately?

    You disagree with Brees’s stance?

    Can't out edit the idiots.

    Not sure what to think about Bill Russell's claims. I suppose I should be a good white guilt guy and assume all things all blacks say about the past are the truth.

    Ha! Sure can’t! No matter what side of any fence you’re on. And of course never trust anybody wholesale at their word.

    Never was I (barely) impacted by a decision of the Supreme Court of The United States figuring out if I had the same rights as everybody else, though.
