    and in the comments he said:

    Erik Loo · Aptos High
    Whoston is such a bad team that they injure people.

    Then I clicked on his name took me to his FB page and he said these:

    America literally needs to stop watching these trashy kardashian murderers... They literally drove Lamar Odom to this to steal his 50 million dollars.
    If you support these vile trash please just delete me from your profile, I'd honestly prefer it that way.

    [rQUOTEr]Days after being found unconscious in a legal Nevada brothel, Lamar Odom has opened his eyes and made a brief utterance, ABC News has confirmed.

    It's not clear what the former NBA star uttered, but he's been unresponsive since being found at the Love Ranch in Crystal, Nev. on Tuesday.

    His condition was also not clear and it was not clear how long his eyes were open for.[/rQUOTEr]

    [rQUOTEr]10:57 AM PT -- Reports are being posted that Lamar is now communicating in some fashion, but our sources say he is not. There are some body movements, including eye opening, but doctors have made it clear the movements are all involuntary.[/rQUOTEr]

    I heard those involuntarily movements are normal when coming out of drug-induced comas. I heard doctors need to take him off those drugs so they can test his organs' functionality.

    LAS VEGAS – Lamar Odom opened his eyes Friday morning, a person at the hospital where he remained in intensive care told USA TODAY Sports.

    Odom's eyes appeared to move in reaction to voices and other noise, the person said.

    The person asked not to be named due to the sensitivity of the matter.

    Odom has been in Sunrise Hospital since Tuesday, after being rushed to the facility following a three-day binge at a Nevada brothel that left him unresponsive.

    Friday brought the first positive signs for the former NBA player and estranged husband of reality television star Khloe Kardashian, as his heart showed evidence of increased function.

    A report from Entertainment Tonight claiming that Odom was in a strong enough condition to ask to see his children could not be confirmed by USA TODAY Sports.

    I visit random blogs concerning civil rights and treatment of various people of color by the media. That $75k is literally nobody's business especially concerning somebody in critical condition struggling to survive. It's down right trying to paint somebody worse with no concern whether they live or die. I used to be skeptical but I really see media, CNN, for what it really is...

    Lol, true... go to TMZ for the scoop:

    Lamar Odom was able to breathe on his own, with the help of a mask rather than a ventilator ... TMZ has learned.
    Our sources say doctors are trying to get Lamar functioning on his own, so a few minute before this story was posted, they took him off the ventilator and put a breathing mask on Odom.
    We're told doctors are putting him back on the ventilator and used the mask as a test, and they plan on going back and forth to see if Lamar would be able to breath without heavy life support.
    It's another hopeful sign. As we reported tests Friday morning revealed Lamar's heart has shown some improvement. That said, our sources were quick to add Lamar is not out of the woods by any means, and it's unclear if he'll be able to sustain breathing on his own.

    This is beyond ridiculous. Really, you can do better.

    Take a step back and recognize that you are not in Lamar's inner circle. YOU don't know for certain that people didn't reach out to L-O. All of your claims (rappers...really? :rolleyes:) are without merit. They're armchair accusations and your own form of propaganda. I know you want so badly to be a GM, but it's not happening.

    It's fair to speculate, but at least admit that your ideas are purely speculation at best. The whole, "If they really cared..." drivel isn't appropriate here, especially if Lamar's health hasn't been stabilized, according to reports. Just be happy that he's more alert than previously reported. Save your accusations about unhelpful, former teammates and friends for another day, or when L-O says it on his own.

    the fact that this man might have lasting impacts from a stroke/and or worse may not be known...but the information that he is breathing on his own, and able to make minimal gestures and sounds is truly very remarkable. Hoping and praying for a full, and complete recovery...both physically and mentally for this man.

    Is Lamar Odom still fully erect? Why hasn't the media informed us on the status of his erection?
