Watching that Dream Team documentary and can't figure out who the guy on the far right, bottom row in the #11 jersey is. This is the group of college kids who beat them in a scrimmage (beat may not mean what i think it does though according to coach k).

think it's Rodney Rogers, but i could be wrong

Bobby Hurley - white guy bottom left
Anfernee Hardaway - #6?
Grant Hill - #7
Allan Houston - #8?
Chris Webber - #9
Eric Montross - #10
Rodney Rogers - #11?
Jamal Mashburn - #12?

yes/no?

Everybody else is right for sure. Rodney Rogers would make sense from a positional standpoint and from a me not recognizing his face standpoint.

fathers day is ****ing stupid

mothers day equally ****ing stupid, but that's not tomorrow

Er, why?

Definitely Rodney Rogers

Flying el al to Israel. Quite an interesting experience.

How so?

First is the totally separate check in area in Heathrow, segregated from the terminal, complete with a half dozen serious looking dudes with armor and machine guns. Before you get into line you get an individual q&a session of length varying between 5 minutes (my coworker) to 25 minutes (me). Apparently I didn't answer the questions the way they liked since they then took apart my backpack at the gate prior to boarding ( but after letting me go through ticketing). But the people were generally quite professional and in some cases even nice. Eagerly awaiting entry to the country when the flight is over. Expecting that what I just went through was the gentle setting.

Israeli airport security is about a million times better than American TSA

America is the worst so far of any country I've been to.

It's quite embarrassing in fact. No wonder international tourism is down 20%. We treat everyone like ****.

clark im just gonna let you know now you're in for a "fun" flight (by fun i mean tons of babies screaming and crying)

Yeah. In first class and of course there's a child in the row next to me. Only one though. Fingers crossed.

Yeah they just busted out the loud kids video toy when the kid started crying. Awesome. My fake smile in their direction did get them to turn it down a little though. But only a little. Fuuuuuuuuuu take that **** to coach.

coach would be about a hundred times louder, i promise

A little worried someone is reading these gripes by snagging the wireless signal actually. *looks over shoulder*

I'm shocked Israeli security doesn't have a protocol in place for neutralizing a crying baby

wow. rodney king died

we hardly knew ye

does that mean we can all stop pretending to get along

He did a lot for police discussions on the internet.

Damn. He did a lot of press a few months ago on the anniversary of the beating/riots and seemed to be doing well in life. Was engaged to marry a juror from one of his trials.

Addiction is sad.

in general this is pretty easy to avoid as long as you're not a dick. not hard to tell them what they want to hear and not come across as defensive or secretive by giving abrupt and useless answers. i lol at people who constantly get pulled in for extra screening or get their bags searched, or even people who just bitch about traveling by air in general (not saying that's you), not a hard thing to get right
