    He's just trying to say that 2016 is a crazy year and listing those as examples...

    And he's not wrong. As a fast food connoisseur, the McD's breakfast bowls and Burger King hot dogs are terrible.

    See, that's why I did not understand it. I don't remember last time I ate at McDonalds. Burger King... maybe 13-14 years ago.

    Best response by an athlete that's not involved.

    Seriously, yeah Russ messed up, but young players need structure in place to help them. Look what happened to Okafor without it in Philly. Do we think having Kareem and some others on the Lakers when Magic came in wasn't a help to him? I know Magic was older and better already and it's not exactly the same, but I think the point is valid. I would also think Kobe coming in and having guys like Jerome Kersey, Ceballos, maybe Horry, and even B0ron Scott himself on the roster to learn from was a help. He's said as much himself regarding B0ron being an early mentor to him. Swaggy P is not someone to model your NBA career after, or possibly take life lessons from.

    ^^^ I think Magic benefitted from the time period. No way he'd have survived in today's cyber world. He was throwing orgy parties at his house. Imagine if they had cell phones back then. What D'Angelo did is nothing compared to what Magic did or would have been accused of.

    "sale" is how Nick typed it in his tweet. I'm well aware of the correct spelling. And it's "doesn't" usually, not "don't" usually.

    All the Burger Kings around me closed. Like ALL of them. I couldn't tell you where the closest one is now. And McDonalds? I have eaten there twice in the last 15 years. Once cause my nephews were having a conniption and I needed to shut them up. And the second time I recalled the Ribwich episode from the Simpsons and decided to try a McRib. I ate 3 bites and threw it away.

    Wow aren't you picky? What's not to like about succulent baby back pork pulled away from the rib bones and put into a great sandwich form?

    I suppose you wouldn't like this either? :SadPau2:

    Lol. On the front of the box THEY describe it as a "rib shaped patty made with pork and chicken." That's like a step above slow-roasted pulled pork because it's "shaped" so it's kind of like a sculpture. And it doesn't just have one dead animal, but TWO dead animals!

    Wait a minute are you saying something bad about slow roast pulled pork? That's the food of my people and it's amazing.
