    Hey All,


    I was at Mister Car wash on Westheimer this morning, and I saw Griffin there. I was with my little girl and a friend, and I said to him "Eddie Griffin, whats up!" He looked at me like "What the **** do you want" So I felt kind of awkward. Well anyways, I was talking to my friend, explaining to her who he was, and I said he was the B-Ball player that shot at his girlfriend, and I made a gun gesture, and he looked right at me!! He gave me the evil eye. I think he was too high to care though. Just though you peeps would care to know that his Anti-Drug violation has landed him back in H-town! He was not as tall as I thought he was.

    he was probably just grumpy because he couldn't watch p*rn while his car got washed.

    I didn't know he still lived in Houston. I know his house was in Shadow Lake (where he shot his gf) which is the neighborhood right across from me.

    Did you get a chance to see what car he drives?

    I hate to intrude in your thread, but if you want to talk about awkward situations, I was in the same hot tub as Othella Harrington this past summer over at the LA Fitness on Briar Forest and Eldridge.

    i forgot about the p*rn! This is so funny though, they had a section in the shop where they sell "his/hers" candles, that the wax becomes massage oil, and that was the first thing he looked at!

    I think he was driving a white SUV.

    Griffin sucks. The dictionary definition of knucklehead may actually be Eddie Griffin.

    Any opportunity to say it :p

    BTW, maybe i've just been missing out, but why is there not made more of the fact he shares a name with a movie star?

    he is human like everyone else.

    We are all products of what we grow up around, and have no choice about the situations we are born into.

    The situations we are born into, many times, define our core personalities.

    My point, is that many of you are WAY too judgemental. if we dig into your personal lives, I'm sure there will be many skeletons. Quit with the judgemental actions already.

    Not one of you is Christ.

    He was probably suffering from depression of somewhat or maybe just simply high on some illegal substance. Poor kid, no team would have wanted this kid anymore with his drug used. :(

    He's probably down here to spend time with John Lucas. I remember reading articles a couple years ago about Lucas trying to help Eddie get back on his feet.

    And if you're grew up rich (female) you would be obligated to turn into a Paris Hilton :)

    Speaking of Help, Lucas set by me in an Economics class at Baylor when he was there, and he used to ALWAYS ask for answers to stuff. I would always give him the wrong answer, and he would show a lower grade then me. He would turn and say, "Damn man, that test was hard" I would put my tounge in my cheek to keep from laughing! Now he is a millionaire, and probably the one laughing

    Griffin is a lost cause, he should be glad someone would want to greet him. Im pretty sure even his teammates hate to be seen with him.

    His famed SUV was sold for a very good price on ebay. Maybe he should start a business selling cars.
