Damn Blake:

There's an interview with Blake Griffin in the latest issue of Rolling Stone that contains one particularly alarming bit of information. It appears that Blake Griffin is a hardcore, Jesus-rode-a-dinosaur-type creationist.
At one point, the interviewer brings up the fact that Griffin was home-schooled as a child, and then (jokingly, I'm assuming) asks Griffin if he is Team Creationism or Team Evolution. Griffin replies:

I was raised in a Christian household and went to a Christian high school, so I believe in creationism, for sure.

The interviewer asks Griffin if he really thinks the Earth is only 6,000 years old, to which Griffin replies, rather hilariously:

I don't want to do the math, but somewhere around there.

Clips vs Grizzs first round would be

You honestly think this would be more entertaining than Clips/Warriors?

Shaq is hating on Dwight's 26ppg and 14 rebound averages against the Blazers 

Brent Barry did call him out though.

I just rewatched season 3 last week for the first time in a couple years.  Worth it.

Truly the greatest tv show of all time.

Dog u always say 1 ply

The more plys u have the softer if its
So in theory 1 ply is not soft

Jeez ur jokes are stale

Its not about not liking its about you not understanding the basics of toilet paper

 

[imsneakerpimp]

Paul Pierce still hard.

He's probably "the ugliest brotha in the league" though

Of course Blake is a creationist Christian, he's from Oklahoma. Y'all know we are the only arena in all of pro sports (New Orleans used to to but they only did it 1 yr) who does a coerced prayer before every game? **** is so annoying

After they sing the Star Spangled Banner, they introduce a Pastor from somewhere in the community who comes to center court and leads the entire arena in prayer. They always try to defend it as being a "non denominational, general, no we aren't only talking about long haired blue eyed white Jesus," prayer, but it's always a Baptist pastor from the local community, not like they have tons of Rabbi's (they did once recently) or other non Christian religions represented and literally once a dude did open a Bible and read a passage, every once in a while someone says "Jesus" although they're again instructed not to.

It's called religious coercion and besides being inconsiderate since obviously not everyone is the same religion, is technically illegal. Bible Belt gon' Bible Belt though

Can't even imagine them trying to do this at MSG


Makes me double bitter about the Sonics tho

I legit hate these Old Spice "Mom" commercials.

I know edgy/weird is trendy in ads these days, but it's too creepy.

Anybody know if Clips are going to sit any players for their game against the Nuggets?
