RECRUIT HIM OR LOSE OUT BAMA

Recruit him or don't. If you're a pawn, you stay a pawn, even if you're a smart-ass pawn. The king stay the king. (via Brian.)

By “dual threat”, do they mean assault AND battery?

Hey Mr. Nugget, you the bomb. We sellin’ chicken faster than you can tear the bone out, so I’m going to write my clowny-ass name on this fat-ass check for you!

Labor and capital, as told by David Simon. Unreal.

Also, can’t wait for the first tOSU commenter to note that this is a link to the Wolverine, and mistake that for the notion that Michigan was involved and got beat out by U. San Diego.

I had no idea what the hell this post was about. Don’t know what I did with my life before Google. Besides not watching “The Wire”, obviously.

Necessary:

“He’s saying that the past is always with us. Where we come from, what we go through, how we go thought it all this shit matters. Like at the end of the book, ya know, boats and tides and all. It’s like you can change up, right, you can say your somebody new, you can give yourself a whole new story. But, what came first is who you really are and what happened before is what really happened. It don’t matter that some fool say he different cuz the things that make you different is what you really do, what u really go through. Like, ya know, all those books in his library. He frontin with all them books, but if you pull one down off the shelf, none of the pages have ever been opened. He got all them books, and he hasn’t read nearly one of them. Gatsby, he was who he was, and he did what he did. And cuz he wasn’t willing to get real with the story, that shit caught up to him. That’s what I think, anyway. "

I feel better knowing I wasn’t the only one. However, I still get to wear the dunce cap for staring at the picture trying to find the joke instead of submitting to Google’s complete world knowledge.

Ah, The Wire. Yet another ZOMG greatest show EVAR I haven’t bothered to watch. If anyone needs me I’ll be at Joe Pa’s house catching up on Hill Street Blues reruns.

Any takers to why his eyes are red?

And if USC doesn’t get him, that speaks for the quality of Carroll’s peoples . . .

My first pass through I ran the name through the Google News search, figuring I’d find an article on him doing something dumb, but I got nothing. So eventually after reading the comments I found him on wiki.

@13

Don’t worry, I’m the bigger dunce. My eyes didn’t see the kids name and it took me a little bit to get the joke. This is coming from a guy who’s seen the complete Series twice through.

Marlo Saban, heh. My name is my name!

Good news for Saban: D’Angelo is willing to do mule work, and if caught will do the time for the family.
