But that team's owned by uber-christian Amway Corp. I'm not holding my breath.

Dwight Howard must live about five.


BTW, if the players really wanted to do it, Rich DeVos couldn't stop em...The NBA is a "players league".

Certainly one of the dumbest things - in a long series of idiotic things - Geraldo has ever said:
"I think the hoodie is as much responsible for Trayvon Martin's death as George Zimmerman."

That piece of human excrement must feel abject terror at the sight of so many young men in the dreaded hoodie...and that's the only thing he deserves to feel for the rest of his time on the face of this planet. He pursued and eventually shot dead an unarmed man, then used either prejudice, connections or both to avoid initial incarceration. There can be no justice or civil society that allows this to stand without a full trial and a jury verdict.

I've worn my hoodie every single day since Trayvon was murdered. Sanford is an abomination.

As illustrated by the photo, it is PULLOVER hooded sweatshirts that are truly "hoodies."

A hooded sweatshirt that has to be fastened in front is a hooded sweatshirt that has to be fastened in front.
