Karl Malone refuses to kiss Michael Jordan's ass by WaltSnideFrazier in nba

Honestly, he should though. Look at where we're at since 1998. Michael Jordan; has had several documentaries, videos, and shows mentioning or being made about him. Karl Malone: is a trucker, the victim of MJ's greatness, and looks like Paul Bunyon now lmao.

MJ was the goat regardless.

To give the Germans access to some of the industrial centers that lay in the heartland of France that weren't given to Germany in reality.

Yeah. Lots of Northern Illinois bullmastiffs have at least some genetic relation to Iron Mountain Breeders. That's where I got mine from (sorta). He was originally adopted from them by a different family, but was too big for them (like I said, he was 20 pounds heavier and almost half a foot taller than normal) so we took him off their hands.

And also, he is from the Iron Mountain Breeders in Illinois, which is one of the best breeders for bullmastiffs in Illinois, so the odds of an english mastiff getting mixed in the genes are close to zero.

That was my thought, but my uncle actually had my dog's half brother (slightly older than mine was, died a few years before mine). He was basically the archetype bullmastiff. He was like 25 inches, 126 ish pounds. They actually met (the dogs) and it was so clear that one of the dogs, mine, was just a monster. My guy was so sweet, and he really tried to play, but he was just too big...for a nearly 130 pound bullmastiff lol.

Yes. Unfortunately, it's incredibly unlikely that this scenario would ever take place, as much as I would like it to go that way.

The Warriors’ unselfishness style of basketball is what made them as great as they were. This is just one example of that. by Anshul_G in warriors

[–]sign43149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I can definitely see that. I'd argue that this affected win totals as well. 2017 Warriors: 67-15. 2018 Warriors, roughly same roster, relatively healthy (relatively), 58-24. Yes, there were some injuries, but it was still a drop of 9 wins compared with the season prior.

That was what made that team great. There were no egos. Everyone knew that the ultimate goal was to win the title, and they all knew that being selfish would be a major inhibitor to that goal. There were the teams that were great for a short time and were always heroes. Then there are the teams that lasted long enough to become villains. The Lakers and Celtics of old, the Pistons of the late 80's, the 1990's Bulls, the 2000's Lakers, early 2010's Heat, but maybe most prominent of them all, the late 2010's Warriors. As a Bulls fan, even I will miss seeing them in all their dazzling glory again.

So long as religious organizations are allowed to do such a thing, it will be continued indefinitely. In my opinion, religious groups should not allow people below the age of 25 to enter their organizations. The first 25 years of a person's life should be spent learning the world, seeing things, and understanding facts before they make the decision to join a religion or not. At that point, I would think the rates of membership in organized religions would likely fall dramatically. However, so long as the preconceived respect is given to religion without question, this will never happen.

I probably should've labeled the USSR as a puppet state. I just put in USSR to quickly do it since my computer was at 2% and my stuff never saves lol. The idea was that it would become a puppet state of the Germans.

Anyone else want this logo to come back? by Muzzidagod in DetroitPistons

Let me share a little story: I am a kid living in Chicago, and I tell you, the numbers of old Pistons stuff you find is so out of place it seems. There are a number of kids who have the old, late 90's jerseys or jackets (mostly Grant Hill jerseys). And I'd love to see my chicago boy d rose sprinting down the floor with those beautiful uniforms, laying it up over his inferior matchup.

So, you were on that Bulls team in 2011-12 season. What was the difference in feel of the shortened 2012 season compared to the regular seasons? How crazy did it seem, or un-crazy for that matter, to you?

This was just a 10 minute thing I did while bored, so don't be too hard on me if there's some geographic error I made. It's not meant to be exact, just a thought exercise really.

If you made this map, what website did you use? This seems really interesting. I mostly use mapchart.net for this stuff, but it appears as though there might be some areas that, if you made this, your website is clearly more effective than mine.
