  1. The streak will probably end on Sunday. I hope not, but more than likely. Remember, that after Friday, the Rockets play the Lakers, Celtics, Hornets, Warriors and Suns. This could determine where our seeding is. There is only like 3-4 games separating 1st thru 8th seed. A two to three game losing streak can mean the end of a season.

  2. Maybe that was because the ownership of Spy was busted in an international drug ring bust, and the club shut down. Civil court judgments against federal prisoners are generally considered worthless.

    Now that i think about it, yeah it was about the same time the club was busted for a front of laundering X and other drugs.

  3. Race :huh:

    Remember that lawsuit against Spy a few years back by a group of Asians? It really went nowhere. It was kinda funny seeing a girl who i used to hang out with sitting at the press conference with that group...lol

    Happens all the time. Me and a friend have been denied access to certain clubs in midtown because we did not have any females in our group. Or "No guys allowed in right now, only girls..." You can hear that phrase every night all night at clubs. Isn't that discrimination based on race?

    We had a friend in our group with us once of a certain race that was denied entry because his shoes "Were not the right style for the club." Another guy in the same group had tennis shoes on. He had nice leather shoes just like everyone else. When he asked what was the right style, the bouncer just said "Not your style."

    Happens ALL the time... And no one will stop it either. What ya gonna do send Wayn Dolcefino?

    You guys think it is bad here. You should see how it is in LA. Sometimes you can't get in without a decent smile. Sometimes the same person will be denied in one night, but allowed in the club another night by the same bouncer who denied him the other night...really!

  4. Not really. He sells $50 watches with $1000 price tags and discounts them to $150. That is the majority of his business. Most of his sales are on lay away as well. I was in his store XMAS eve and he was there and had a security guard escort him out. I thought to myself..."he is a little self important, isn't he". I do know that the Bently Continental parked near the back entrance to the mall is his.

    I actually consdered buying a watch on XMAS eve when they were 75% off and there was one I actually liked the looks of. I figured if it was cheap enough, it would be worth the novelty alone. Then I found out it wasn't even automatic. Battery watches with a $1000+ price tag and only gold "plating" (rose in this case). WTF is he thinking? Had it been automatic, I'd have bought it (on sale for $165).

    That is Johnny Dang. Jewelers to the Hip-Hop stars!! Snoop, Ice Cube, Ice-T, etc have purchased from him.

  5. To quote Chris Rock: "There are malls that white people go to, and malls white people use to go to".

    That is the reason why business is slow there. I used to go there in the late 80s and early 90s. It has become ghettoish now. Channel 11 mentioned it closing in their 6pm broadcast tonight. I still stop by there once so often when a big sale is on. You hardly see white folks there anymore, especially during the evening hours. You definitely don't want to stay too long in the Macy's parking lot after 7pm. Once you leave the store..you better hurry and find your parked car, get in and take off!

  6. I don't really know much about our team except for Ching. I guess we were w/o not only him but another all-star as the announcers kept referring to him as. Just imagine next year.

    Dwayne Rosario who scored the winning goal is the other star. Also, Ronaldo Clark is a good player who was suspended for kicking an opposing player a few weeks ago. He did not play in the championship game.

  7. We didn't really deserve to win the game. We played 3 horrible quarters. Things will get better though. I really feel that this team would've gone 9-7 w/o all the major injuries this year. Oh well. I felt before the season started that we should've seeked a trade for Adrian Peterson by giving up Mario Williams. We should've at least given Dominick Davis a shot in training camp, but he wasn't even invited to camp.
