What you and i need to do is learn to forget our differences. when we come together, we don't come together as baptists or methodists. you don't catch hell 'cause you're a baptist, and you don't catch hell 'cause you're a methodist... you don't catch hell because you're a democrat or a republican. you don't catch hell because you're a mason or an elk. and you sure don't catch hell 'cause you're an american; 'cause if you was an american, you wouldn't catch no hell. you catch hell 'cause you're a black man. you catch hell, all of us catch hell, for the same reason.

It bothers me that the average fan, the average sportswriter for that matter, pays so much attention to what's in a box score. a box score does not properly represent the most important thing - team play. it shows some guy scoring 27 points, but it doesn't show that my 27-point man let his guy score 30.
Team Men Average
I accept that friends of ours have decided that the president's non-strike has somehow impacted perceptions of us. but i believe they are dead wrong and i think the critics are dead wrong, and here's why. the president [barack obama] made his decision to strike. he announced his decision to strike publicly. and the purpose of the strike was to get the chemical weapons out of syria. that's the purpose.
Believe Thinking Decision
When you're walking home at night, do you even get creeped out and even though it's silly and embarrassing you just want to run home?" it seemed too secret and personal to admit to virtual stranger, but i told her, "yeah, totally." for a moment, she was quiet. then she grabbed my hand, whispered, "run run run run run," and took off, pulling me behind her.
