he's embarassed himself and tarnished his legacy enough..

Yep, being one of the top 20 players in the NBA when your 40 is really embarrasing yourself.

Agreed. They said he would come back in the role of distributor of the ball........Mj could still do that through the triangle, trust me.

MJ is still a very good roleplayer. I'd take him over Pippen any day of teh week and I still think Pip is a quality role player. MJ is the man. At 40 years old he can still do many impressive things and he is a heck of a passer.

 

Lets not forget how he busted his ass off down the stretch when the rest of the Wizards just sat their.

Not saying hes a bad player, as he's definetely not, but said he would never play for anyone but phil jackson, only a lie to cover up for the facy he didnt want to play for Krause, who is not nearly as bad as Jordan plays him out to be. Wanted full control of Bulls management if he was to come in for an office job, I guess that we were just supposed to believe that since he was the greatest player of all time, that must also mean he is a management expert and deserves such a position. :rolleyes:

Matthew Shepard was savagely beaten five years ago tonight because he was

gay. He died six days later, on 12 October 1998.

Has anyone heard a rumor that this guy was really killed because of a drug deal gone wrong and his parents said he was gay as an excuse( Dont know why, so dont start complaining yet). Last year in my psychology class our teacher was discussing this case and said some people in Wyoming believe that.

 

I was curious to see if anyone heard of this angle......

Never heard about it. Interesting story though.

 

I just remember hearing about this story a long time ago and haven't really thought much about it since.

 

Its sad when anyone dies and this guy was beaten up brutally. Still their are plenty of other people out their that have died horrible deaths, maybe more horrible then this one that never get mentioned.

 

Personally I try to focus more on the good in the world. IF you watched the news everyday you'd always see about how bad people are, etc. Yet on the most part people I meet everyday are good people.

And he sure did "develop" those wizards players, too like he said he would. Traded a youthful Rip Ham for and old Stackhouse, and didnt do much for Kwame and the other youngsters. The team may be even worse now than it was before he started out there.

Long after the conviction, the killer said it was a robbery gone bad. But this is after the hate crimes stuff was going on. My guess, trying to mitigate himself even though his partner in the crime admitted that they lied and said they were gay to lure him into their truck.

Here's some news about the radio industry straight from AllAccess.com

 

 

MEDIABASE has announced plans to expand its monitoring service by offering airplay data for the Smooth Jazz, Latin, and Christian formats. The company also plans to expand outside the U.S. by monitoring select CANADIAN markets. This expansion is due to be implemented in JANUARY 2004.

"MEDIABASE is excited to meet the demands of its customers by entering into these new marketplaces and formats," commented MEDIABASE Pres. RICH MEYER. "As with every format MEDIABASE monitors, the intense focus will be on the quality of the data. Accuracy, reliability, and data integrity have always been the hallmarks of this company. After that, it's all about intelligent presentation of data, analyses, and dissemination. Those are the essential product traits that separate MEDIABASE from all of the others in this field."

 

EMMIS/INDIANAPOLIS OM DAVID EDGAR, who oversees Top 40/Mainstream WNOU (RADIO NOW 93.1), Hot AC WENS, and Soft AC WYXB, tells ALL ACCESS he's hired veteran CLEAR CHANNEL WDCG (G105)/RALEIGH PD CHRIS EDGE to become WNOU's new PD. EDGE begins his new duties on NOVEMBER 3rd.

 

Remember when former KUPD/PHOENIX morning man BEAU DURAN outraged baseball fans and others by calling the widow of ST. LOUIS CARDINALS pitcher DARRYL KILE and hitting on her without telling her she was on the air? The FCC has issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture proposing a $4,000 fine on KUPD for the OCTOBER 3, 2002 incident, based on the failure to inform FLYNN KILE that she was on the air.

 

AWRT Exec. Dir. MARIA EFANTIS BRENNAN has been appointed to the FCC Advisory Committee on Diversity in the Digital Age. The Diversity Committee has a 2-year lifespan with a mission to make recommendations to the FCC regarding policies and practices that will further enhance the ability of minorities and women to attain positions in telecom and related industries.

 

Cable company and ISP CHARTER COMMUNICATIONS is fighting the RIAA with a lawsuit attempting to bar the labels from getting the names of CHARTER subscribers who swap music files on the Internet. CHARTER filed a motion to quash the RIAA's subpoenas seeking the names of 150 CHARTER customers in U.S. District Court in ST. LOUIS.

 

CLEAR CHANNEL is converting another JSA with CONCORD MEDIA into an outright ownership deal, buying CONCORD's Country KTPI, Classic Country KTPI-A, and AC KOSS (THE OASIS)/TEHACHAPI-MOJAVE, CA for $13.6 million.

 

CLEAR CHANNEL Talk WOAI-A and Sports KTKR-A (THE TICKET 760)/SAN ANTONIO OM ANDREW ASHWOOD is heading to LOS ANGELES to join PREMIERE's FOX SPORTS RADIO NETWORK as VP/Manager.

 

BOSTON gets a SALEM talker, with the company preparing to flip Spanish WBPS-A to its conservative syndicated lineup as WJTK-A, using the usual SALEM lineup plus a local morning show with former BOSTON HERALD columnist DON FEDER. SALEM bought the station in MAY 2003 for $8.6 million and announced at that time that it planned to flip the station to the talk format, as it is also doing with KKCS-A/COLORADO SPRINGS, relaunching with the Talk format as KZNT-A.

 

Can ENTERCOM's Sports WEEI-A/BOSTON salvage its high-rated morning show in the face of heavy political and community pressure to fire JOHN DENNIS and GERRY CALLAHAN? After the hosts were suspended for two weeks for comments likening an escaped gorilla to a black METCO student waiting for a bus to the suburbs, BLUE CROSS/BLUE SHIELD pulled a $27,000, 6 week schedule from WEEI and donated the amount to the METCO program. WEEI management and METCO officials are scheduled to meet TUESDAY to discuss the situation TUESDAY.

A last-minute accusation of sexual misconduct against ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER by a former stand-in and stunt double on the set of "TRUE LIES" was ripped apart by KFI-A/LOS ANGELES afternoon co-host JOHN KOBYLT, who obtained both information that a crew member admits that he, not ARNOLD, was the one who took a topless photo of RHONDA MILLER and taped it to the ceiling of a trailer on the set, and MILLER's criminal record, which KOBYLT read on the air and allegedly includes several counts of drugs, forgery, and prostitution. KOBYLT was working solo while KEN CHIAMPOU took the day off; KFI's coverage of the recall election will include an extra-long shift for JOHN AND KEN, pre-empting PHIL HENDRIE, and weekender WAYNE RESNICK in for late night coverage, pre-empting GEORGE NOORY for the night

Did either ever say whether they pretended to be gay to beat the crap out of them or was it their way of luring him into being robbed?

 

Either way they should rot in jail for life.

Well, saying you will only play for one coach is unprofessional, IMO. Its your job to play for whoever your coach is. Youre being paid good money so do your job. A small part of these last 5 horrid years probably has a little something to do with Jordan 'getting back' at Krause.

You can't deny that. Jordan made some horrible remarks that hurt the Bulls chances at a few free agents at the very least. For all we know the Bulls could have Tracy McGrady or Grant Hill (Too bad he got hurt).

Not if your not under contract. If Krause wanted the team kept together he could have.

Not just that he left the team, but what he did to the crdibilty of Krase and the organization was a big blow. It almost sickened me that Jordan was given a 5 minute applause when he returned to the UC. THEN, when they started the Bulls lineup and the f***ing idiot fans BOOED??? Class... to think they are cheering the guy who was partly responsible for the peice of sit team that the Bulls were putting out after he left. What some people will believe....

you best be very glad that God is merciful because the hatred that is you will need a very loving God in your time of need

Everyone must be glad God is a forgiving person. You bring up that God is a forgiving person in a thread on homosexuality. I do agree with BMR on the fact that they rather over do they whole Matthew Shepherd thing, and why is one man's life worth more than another. Correct me if I am wrong, but is homosexual acts not against the Catholic religion? All I learned in my Catholic education was that it is. Homosexuality is not wrong, just the acts are. Shepherd had been intending to go perfrom acts. I in no way condone what happen to him, that is a very bad story. But, Shepherd, like all of us, was a sinner. Look at Sodom and Gamorah. I do believe that the extent homosexuality is being taken to now is wrong. I in no way feel same sex marriages should occur. If a person is a homosexual, fine, but do not act on it. I learned about all of the arguments on both side, and I have never understood how a homosexual is born like that. I also hate how people arguing the point always ask 'where you born straight.' I just find that ignorant.

 

If one of my friends came out and told me he or she was a homosexual, it honestly would take a little bit of time to get used to the fact. I know not a single homosexual person, atleast no one who has ever come out.

Eh I dont need to take notes. I know exactly how to behave. Better than most humans, in fact. I just dont think anyone should worry about what others think or say, on a message board. I guess some people do and I guess thats the adjustment I should make. :huh:
