    Old timer yet I'm graduating from High School this year. Ok. My bad tho, I didn't realize they are giving laptops to elementary kids nowadays.

    Both teams have 7 letters. Rangers won in 7, so Rockets win in 7

    Yup, I'm stupid. Every kid graduating this year is stupid. Every single one.

    Yes, all high school kids are dumbasses. Sometime in your mid to late 20's you have the potential to possibly cease being dumbasses.

    Kudos to you for the self-realization, though.

    you guys (not all) are dumb for calling him out. Give him the benefit of the doubt and think about it for a sec

    The Rangers beat the Caps in the Eastern Conf Semis in '94 (and '15). Also the at the same time the Rockets won in 7 against the Suns in the Western Conf Semis. So, we're hoping for a pattern repeat..

    I'm sorry I wasn't politically correct enough for everyone guys. How dare I even think of sharing my honest opinion on a basketball forum about a thread I simply don't find necessary. For shame.

    Thank you for the words of wisdom. It will make me feel even better knowing I can carry on that same wisdom when you're gone from this earth someday.

    99% of the HS kids nowadays are young and dumb. That can be said for each next generation as a whole though.

    So your basically saying the kids that take AP exams in high school, Dual Credit, get accepted into Ivy league schools are all young and dumb? Was there ever a time when high schoolers were not young and dumb? If not, doesn't that mean every single historic person that graduated from high school was young and dumb for that time? Was Einstien some pothead smoker who didn't know crap until he reached his mid 20s?

    1. I went through HS and took AP exams once upon a time too. It didn't make me any smarter, just provided me ultimately with more useless knowledge to forget later on. As far as colleges, colleges are more overrated than a lot of people think really. You would be surprised at some of the people who dropped out of the educational system and went on to become extremely successful.

    2. Getting good grades and being book smart doesn't make a person smart, just educated, most of it which is useless towards your actual employment. That's where experience comes in. Experience and connections are what allows one to succeed in life, not what you did in HS.

    3. College entrance is largely based on what grades you have, what activities you participated in, and your essay. Anyone can get good grades if they study hard enough honestly. College grades only help out with landing that first job, after that, it is all about your performance at your job and job experience.

    It's pretty funny how you mentioned Einstein however. He actually dropped out of HS at one point before going back. Other people who have dropped out of the education system at least once in their lives are Bill Gates, Walt Disney, Steve Jobs just to name a few. Educational systems help, but they are just a factor and honestly not a large one in the grand scheme of things.
