    God gives everybody different talents, its up to us to use it in a way to help spread his word. (According to Christianity)

    You won't find anything of real importance on basketball-reference.com either.

    I use that in the GARM or NBA dish...

    Besides, whats wrong with using facts/stats from a legitimate website?

    All you do is pick and choose what you wanna present.

    I think this is a dire matter of the utmost importance. When it comes to questions of faith, nothing should interfere with the somber and reverent posture we take toward our God, and anyone who seeks humor in our pious reverence is most likely attempting to shake our faith, to turn the image of our creator into a prank. This cannot stand. Sports heroes are not real heroes, not like our super angel soldiers who have made all of us free and wealthy in God's favorite country of the U.S.A., even though they can donate to charity. So comparing Hakeem to God is a great insult and .... oh wait hold on .... oh just a second. Damn, I just ripped the biggest fart I have ever ripped - it sounded like a tire puncture and oh .... oh man ... wow, it smells TERRIBLE.

    Personally, I don't think God has a favorite country, though some say Israel, I don't beleive that either.

    A parent would never pick a favorite child...God would never pick one group of children over the next

    But I do commend all soldiers who fight for our freedom and protect us, they are true heroes.


    If you were talking about the fart, then I'm sorry, :D
