If they do, don't go to the wedding. Think up a lie and go to your game. I'm sure you can get plenty of good lies and excuses if you ask for them around here.

Plus, you were probably on the fringe of the guest list anyway. You know, they had to invite you or the aunt would be offended...

from reports:

USA Basketball Men's Junior National Team Committee has selected Florida coach Billy Donovan to serve as coach at the 2012 FIBA Americas U18 Championship.

The event is being held June 16-20 in Sao Sebastiao do Paraiso, Brazil.
Donovan's assistants will be Gonzaga coach Mark Few and Shaka Smart, the Virginia Commonwealth coach who was a UF assistant under Donovan.

"It's always an honor to be selected to represent your country, and I'm incredibly thankful for this opportunity to be a part of USA Basketball," Donovan said. "I have great respect for Shaka Smart and Mark Few, and I'm looking forward to working alongside them."

Practice will begin June 5 at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. Roughly 25-30 players will compete for 12 roster spots.

That's why I tweet. I have a FB account, but I just get on to see if anyone is asking anything of me. I'm also sick of the drama that goes on there. Some people bring out their personal matters that I just shake my head at. Come to think of it, that's why I don't do many boards anymore.

It's offical, for those who wearn't watching, all 5 UK starters to the NBA. I'm hoping that Anthony Bennett was waiting for it to be offical before committing to UK. The door is open for him now.

I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

First of all, I hate all these goddamned bumper sticker sayings they post there. Just because it has a picture of a kitten or a puppy doesn't make them any less annoying and second of all, if you want to get back at your man, then go fuck somebody and quit looking for sympathy on stupid ass facebook. You don't see your man on there with a picture of a rainbow colored unicorn telling us the 5 ways a Vagina is like fast food.

Shut up already.
I do family law. It is that time of year. They have their tax money back. They use that to retain counsel. By mid-to-late Summer, they will be going "let's make it through the holidays for the children to see if things get better." It's cyclical. The first half of the year is the busiest time of year for getting new clients in my field.

I hate when someone posts something that gets everyone's attetion then they never answer. You know, the dramatic ones that nastily, sarcastically or woefully allude to someone but they never get around to telling the name or finishing the story. I hate that.

I've heard several times that family law is the most miserable part of the law business. As compared to criminal law that brings out the best in the worst people, family law brings out the worst in good people. Glad it never happened to me.

I wouldn't count on it. The Gators won't win the conference let alone the NCAA. The lure of playing for the national championship is very powerful. With the NBA announcement out of the way, I expect Cal will be hearing from Bennett very soon.

Congrats on the SEC move, aTm. It looks like the Aggies belonged after all...
