MODESTY. A smoking hot young woman is smoking hot in anything she wears. I won't go to that online quiz. I guess I'm above it. Funny thing is, in my experience, it's not guys that label women as 'skanky,' it's other women.

I hope they keep him away from myspace.com

Are we allowed to pass moral judgement at all. We know that premarital sex is leading to teen pregnancies. We know that abstinance only education doesn't work. We know what some people can't afford birth control or protection. Yet we all know that if they would just keep their genitals to themselves they wouldn't get pregnant. Why can't we pass the obvious moral judgement: 'you're having sex too early, and, while it may have been unintentional, it wouldn't have happened if you were a stronger moral being.' For some reason we're not allowed to say wrong is wrong. Why not?

Why can't we promote responsibility?

I do believe youth = beauty. I also applaud you remembering my comment about 18-25 year old women. (it was regarding that woman who wrote in to Cary Tennis and said she was a smoking hot late 30something - I just said she can look good for her age, true unfettered beauty is during youth.) I just turned 24, I'm not turned on by wrinkles. I'm sure that will change as I get older.

Not all young people are fixated on screens. Good luck with finishing that book. I can't wait to read it.

By the way, there are some of us out here. Under 25, reading newspapers, going on epic walks through nyc, reading 'Love Me' and 'Lake Wobegon, Summer 1956' (which had me holding my sides). We also listen to AM radio. Don't despair G, our friends are figuring out it's a pretty good way to live.

Go Whippets.

Quit bringing up the GOP. This poll is not about them. It is about the roughly 500,000 Muslim Americans who are okay with attacking civilians. Violent attacks against civilians. I'm frustrated by the poll. These Muslim-Americans supposedly left intolerant countries for the most tolerant one, then they decide to favor violent attacks against civilians. That's disheartening. (I am assuming there are no native american muslims)

Mondale.

The Eastern Conference needed Oden, whatever, I don't even think JO could have done anything about it.

But, fortunately, it's easy to imagine Bill Simmons hanging out in Vegas with people who don't like him too much, getting turned on by a picture of Tom Brady, listening to "WOW, Now that's what I call music 1985" and complaining about not getting Oden.

how easy it's going to be for those kids to sneak out of the house when they're 16.

cheerleaders/dance girls. I was just trying to be dude, but, in reality, I don't care about them. Instead I'm inserting The Ohio State University Marching Band's rendition of The Incomparable Script Ohio.

How can these two thoughts agree? “Taking a charge should not be a valued basketball skill,” and “let’s make defenders play defense.”

Taking a charge is a defender playing defense. Imagine this. A point-guard shakes his defender and is heading straight down the lane. The ball handler has a straight shot to the rim. That doesn’t mean he deserves an uncontested path to the rim. A help defended can (and should) come over and establish his presence in between the ball handler and the hoop. That is playing defense. If the ball handler decides that he should run right through the help defender, he has committed a charge because someone else occupied that space, and he didn’t respect that. You are not, and should not, be entitled to a pathway free of defenders simply because you got by the first person guarding you.

Going along with King’s line of reasoning is difficult. Reconsider the point-guard shaking his defender out near the three point line. King would prefer an unobstructed two points, and if someone came over to play help defense, they would have made an unvalued basketball move, unnecessarily made the game longer, and also decided to not play defense. I don’t understand that.

We can all agree that flops are ugly, effective, and should be policed. Taking away a defender’s right to occupy the space between a ball handler and the basket would most likely make King long for the good ol’ days of flops and charges.

I've heard there are some undocumented people in the L.A. area. I'm sure most of them dig hockey.
