Best wishes to an NBA great.

When I was a kid, I had a poster of his. He was leaning over as if he did not fit in the poster and it said, "Basketball is a game of feet not inches". (thought that was pretty clever when I was a tike, lol) God bless sir (even though you were a Laker)... loved you in "Airplane". Stay well!

At least there is a treatment for it :)

If you are against abortion that is great, no one will force you to have one. Pro-choice people don’t want to make you have an abortion. And guess what, if you think you are allowed to decide whether or not someone else can have one, you are sadly mistaken. Sorry this is America land of the free, not Nazi Germany.

All you obese mid-westerners need to lose weight before we implement a fat-tax. This ain’t Soviet Russia you commie lard asses. Us American taxpayers won't pay medicare for your diabetes and heart attacks forever.

Our founding fathers were liberals and this country was founded on liberalism: fact. Not just liberalism, extreme liberalism.

I don’t believe in your god for the same reasons you don’t believe in other gods.

Old enough to remember him as Lew Alcindor with the Milwaukee Bucks.

That was when the NBA was a somewhat true sport not the rigged entertainment event it is today. :fuelfire:
