I'm 10 minutes from here. Lots of Mexicans washing their kids in this fishing lake. It's a man made lake right next to a man made swimming hole. Some people just can't read English (or don't care). It's been quite a few years since I went back, but I distinctively remember seeing a lot of trash. Empty miller cans and full diapers around the edges. When I want to go fishing now, I go north to the High Sierras. I wouldn't eat a fish out of the same water young Pablo washed his shitty diaper ass in.

Yes, because there are SOOOO MANY kings in Sacramento. And Toronto is absolutely riddled with dinosaurs.

Eh, I thought it sounded weird when they first moved, but now I can't imagine calling them anything but "The Griz".

It fits with their style of basketball and their frontcourt as well, Gasol and Z-bo.

Some names just suck though and need to be changed asap, I'm looking at you Bobcats

Raptors (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utahraptor) name should be traded to Utah
and Jazz to NO

thank god bobcats name is extinct after this season but i sorta live their colour scheme
