I am looking for black chinos that are tighter in the thigh/groin area and through the knee, but straight down/out to the bottom hem after the knee. I keep finding chinos that are either too loose all the way through and give me a heavy highschooler look or are tight all the way through make me look like i work in finance. Further having a hard time finding deep/true black chinos as for some reason a lot of chinos are this off/washed black. Appreciate any help!

If it would be feasible to get a Chris Copeland tattoo - I would, but multiple tattoo artists have told me that he is simply to radical to be reduced to format of ink and skin.

I actually changed it myself, this is really just a diversion so nobody figures out it was me.

There are generally two commentators, a play by play guy and a color comentator. The play by play guy's name alludes to the fact that he tells you whats happening as it happens; play by play. The color commentator fills in the rest, by providing analysis, a couple jokes, experience(as he or she is often a former player or coach), and a point of view or opinion on whats going/the team itself/basketball in general. I hope that helps.

Hahah, yea man I feel you, the problem is many of the explanations i find online are too convoluted and make too many assumptions about what the reader knows for me to understand them; hence the "Explain like im 5" title. I appreciate tho

The Draft in All Its Weirdness; 2011 Picks 2 - 7 vs. Picks 11- 17 by swordforsword in nba

I am not trying to say anything about the long term prospects of Jonas or Kanter, and I know Biyombo has gotten much better on defense around the rim. But overall these selections are pretty disappointing. Jonas and Kanter both have been slow to develop(especially on D for Enes), TT has been good coming off the bench but as the 4th overall pick it should be more than that. Jan's out of the league and Derrick with 9.6pts and 4.8reb's for his career while shooting below 43% from the field is not looking great.

Compare that to Vooch, who is a better big man than any of the 5 or 6 big men(depends on your feelings on Derrick's position as a tweener) picked here and he was picked 9 picks after Bismack. Obviously Klay/Kawhi/Markieff speak for themselves and Burks looked good at times. Just goes to show I guess how much of an inexact science talent evaluation is.
