- Heh Heh - we're talking about practice!

- After seeing what happened to stories about Hunter Biden - is it too far fetched to think this type of censorship could also be possible in America?

- This made me chuckle. (HT Meanderthal)

- It's too bad Amanda Nunes isn't better known outside of the UFC. Next to Serena Williams - Nunes is the most impressive female athlete of my lifetime. Oh and she won again last night.

- "Notes" of an Elder. Excellent life advice and some important question worth examining.

Stuff I found interesting and thought I'd share.

- Wow - Allen Iverson accused of kidnapping own kids and being an alcoholic.

- Nice interview with Game of Thrones star Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jamie Lannister)

- Interesting look at the actual baseball in the movie Bull Durham (which is now 25-years old). Never thought about the pitch count in those games but Nuke would have been throwing 200 pitches per game

- George Blaney retires. He was always a class act when he was head coach at Holy Cross.

Wow - Allen Iverson = Trainwreck

Wow - I never realized that Allen Iverson's life was such a mess.

Allen Iverson is in trouble, folks, deep trouble. The combination of alcohol and gambling - and a once-promising career in tatters because of the first two - won't culminate in anything short of disaster if help does not arrive in short order.

If numerous NBA sources are telling the truth - and there's no reason to believe they'd do otherwise in a situation of this magnitude - Iverson will either drink himself into oblivion or gamble his life away.

Nice job by Stephen A. Smith. I criticize him often but Screaming A really brought his A-game on this piece.
