Sexual Molestation Of Boys By Sandusky And Fine!!!!!!!!

This is a touchy subject because it involves boys as young as 10 years old. First Jerry Sandusky who was a long time assistant football coach and defensive coordinator for Penn State from 1977-1999. He has allegedly molested at least 10 boys over the years. In my opinion I think there is alot more because a person doesn't become a child predator overnight. And I think he started this Second Mile charity to ferry out the boys, alot like trafficing sex to other sexual predators in the area. Funny thing is the county district attorney who didn't prosecute Sandusky in 2001 disappeared in 2005 and was recently declared dead. The media is not talking much about that at all, it is very suspicious. Also I think Joe Paterno knew more than he has let on, this summer he sold his house to his wife for $1. I find this very suspicious too, you can draw your own conclusions about that one. I will say more will come out by the day. As for Bernie Fine the former assistant basketball coach at Syracuse for over 30 years more and more men are coming forward by the day. And his wife Laurie Fine is just nasty, knowing about the sexual assaults and not saying anything. Then having sex with the boy herself and suppposedly other members of the Syracuse basketball team over decades. The state of New York recently said the statute of limitations has run out for them to charge Fine. But the Federal Government is prepared to go full force after Bernie Fine. Not sure how much Jim Boeheim the Head Coach knew but at least he is trying to be sensitive now and help, once more evidence has come out recently. I say there should be no statute of limitations when it comes to sexual assault on a child. They need to change those laws. More to come I am sure on both of these cases. This is my rant for today. God Bless and Peace to the Creatures.  

Top 5 Illinois Basketball Players Class of 2012!!!!!!!!

As I have said many times this is one of the weakest senior classes in Illinois history. Only one player in the Top 100 in the country. Here we go: 1) STEVE TAYLOR-SIMEON(CHICAGO)--- 6 foot 8 Marquette commit is the only Illinois player in Top 100 in the country has a nice 3 point shot and face up game. Rebounding has improved and so has his ball handling. Will be a key cog to the number 1 team in the country. Problem is he will have to learn to play small forward on the next level by improving his dribble drive game and defense. 2) MARLON JOHNSON---WEST(JOLIET)---6 foot 9 he can put the ball on the floor and has a mid range game. Him being Number 2 is more on potential than anything else. Very good rebounder and shot blocker. This kid has a lot of upside especially coming from playing Freshman B basketball and having a growth spurt. Whomever signs him could be getting a special talent. 3)KEITH CARTER-PROVISO EAST(MAYWOOD)---- 6 foot 0 yes I have him higher than some scouts do. He has impressed me with his floor game and the speed he plays at. He plays with so much more control than earlier in his career. Good three point shot and can get into the paint and create shots for himself and teammates. Decommitted from Loyola-Chicago but will find a school that suits his skills soon enough. 4) MILTON DOYLE-MARSHALL(CHICAGO)---- 6 foot 4 junkyard dog does it all for Marshall, had to sit out a season because of transfer, hits the boards and flies down the floor,blocks shots. Problem is the will have to learn how to play in the back court to play on a high level in college. 5) AARON SIMPSON-NORTH CHICAGO---- 6 foot 0 Illinois State commit is a stone cold scorer, can create any shot he wants for himself and can score in bunches. Problem for him will be is he a point guard or a shooting guard? He's too small to be an effective shooting guard and doesn't have the mindset of a point. But he is fun to watch. Some will say why Michael Orris of Crete Monee(Crete) is not in my top 5? he's a very good player just not sure he's a point guard? And Mike LaTulip is a small scoring guard, also not sure he's a point guard but exciting to watch. This is my rant for today. Peace to the Creatures and God Bless.   

Top 5 High School Basketball Teams in Illinois 2011-2012

Last year I correctly picked Chicago Simeon to win the State 4A Basketball title last year. I am picking Simeon once again this year to win a third straight title. here we go: 1) Simeon(Chicago)- This is one of the most talented teams of all time in the State of Illinois starting with Jabari Parker 6-8 junior forward. He's considered the best player in the country regardless of class. You also have the top senior in the state of Illinois in Steve Taylor 6-8 forward committed to Marquette, next is Top 30 junior nationally Kendrick Nunn 6-1 shooting guard can jump out of the gym. The point guard is 6-0 senior Jelani Neely who tore his ACL in June, he's due back beginning of December. Fifth starter is DeLaSalle(Chicago) transfer 6-2 junior Jaylen Tate who is a pure point guard. Bench strength starts with 6-5 junior Kendall Pollard, also you have 5-4 junior Lawrence Briggs, along with two fantastic freshman DJ Williams 6-6 and Brandon Hutton 6-4 also 6-2 senior Tarrell Green, 5-11 senior Dwaun Stewart and 5-9 senior Brandon Clemmons. 2) Whitney Young(Chicago)- Probably the most talented team in Illinois even possibly more than Simeon. Start with Colorado State commit Jermaine Morgan 6-8, you also have two of the Top 10 sophmores in the country in Jahlil Okafor 6-10  center and 6-8 guard/forward Paul White. Also have Top 20 nationally 6-10 junior Thomas Hamilton who I think will be key to their season. Also 6-6 senior Nate Brooks, 6-2 senior Gabe Snider, and 6-2 senior Jordan Smith. Still Young needs a point guard, I think they will try 6-2 sophmore Miles Reynolds.  3) Proviso East(Maywood)- New Coach Donnie Boyce has a ready made talented team this season. Ring Leader will be 6-0 senior Keith Carter who is the table setter at point guard, also 5-9 senior Keith Nicholas and 5-9 junior Paris Lee both great knockdown shooters. Sterling Brown 6-4 junior(and brother of LA Laker Shannon Brown) does a little bit of everything. Tashaun Caroll 6-5 senior will hold down the middle. This team had a great summer but weaknesses are lack of depth and size could bring them down. 4) Curie(Chicago)- ring leader for this talented team is 6-8 sophmore Cliff Alexander who is a Top 10 sophmore nationally, also 6-3 senior Devin Foster,5-11 senior Paris Burns,5-8 senior Jibreel Jackson and they have another 6-9 sophmore will be a great tag team for Alexander. 5) Warren(Gurnee)- State 4A runnerup to Simeon has a great nucleus coming back. Leaders are 6-9 senior forward Nathan Boothe a Toledo commit and 6-8 senior forward Darius Paul along with JoVaugh Gaines 6-1 senior guard will be the leaders. They will need to find a 3 point shooter to loosen up defenses so teams cannot collapse on their inside players. I will have 6-10 coming up soon. God Bless everyone and Peace to the Creatures.

Have People Become Dumber??????????????

This phenomenon I see every day especially with drivers. People sitting at green lights, trying to run over pedestrians in crosswalks,stopping at pedestrian crosswalks when they don't have to,etc. It seems like people with the big time jobs are more stupid by the day. Also people going through no turn on red lights, then when there is not a no turn on red at the light they sit there!!!!!!!!!!! I think this is as a result of television, internet, and technology. People don't read books anymore, they take soundbites that are put on the internet and make them their life. Seems like folks have no common sense anymore. Example: I was taking my wife to work on Northwestern Campus, now I am driving my car down the street of her office, students are walking. None of them get out of the road to let me go down it, I have to blow my horn for them to get out of the way. Some had headphones on and some didn't. Is this just apathy? Or is it just people are getting dumber by the day? Now these are Northwestern University students, these are supposed to be the brightest of the bright in this country. Also you have black folks defending kids rights to wear their pants down!!!!!!!!! Have you looked at any of the commercials lately? Seems like they are being made by crackheads. Seems like the Bilderberg Group have brainwashed folks with drugs,sex,and alcohol. Meanwhile DUI is treated like it's okay to drink and drive. Also the tattoo craze is totally ridiculous, don't these folks know getting alot of those hurts their job prospects? If someone else has an answer as to why people seem to be getting dumber I would like to know? I think part of it is what is not taught in schools. Also that it seems like the majority of America has had some marijuana in their system at one time or another. Most don't know that marijuana kills your brain cells, but it seems to be mainstream now especially in the African American community. I think it would help alot of people to come to Jesus Christ, it would help them not think their life is so hard to live. Well this is my rant for today. God Bless everyone. Peace to the Creatures.      

NBA Lockout Who's Fault Is It!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The NBA Lockout is a crazy thing. The owners have locked out the players because they don't like the agreement that was agreed on in the last collective bargaining agreement. Yes they had an opt out clause that they exercised on July 1st 2011. I am usually on the players side in any sports dispute. This time I am on neither side. The owners as always are greedy and want to control the players as much as possible. Just like the owners of the slaves centuries ago, the owners want total control period. The players meanwhile can only blame themselves for this situation. Why? For one they have become fat cats with the guaranteed contracts, they think they can act any way they please because the contract is guaranteed. There are very few out clauses in a standard NBA contract for it to be terminated. So instead of working on improving their game, they just sit back and drag their butts up and down the court knowing the club still has to pay them. Doesn't matter if their performances are garbage they still get paid. Also the quality of play in the NBA has gone on a downward spiral for a number of years now. These kids only play for the money and not for the love of the game, I can count on one hand the skilled players in the NBA. You would think with better technology and weight training the players would be better? Too many players today depend on their athleticism instead of their basketball skills. I would say 80% of the players in the league are there because of their physical talent and not basketball skill level. Another thing: and this is a personal thing with me, I don't like seeing players on the floor tatted up all over their body. To me it looks like a bunch of thugs running up and down the court. Not saying they are actually thugs because some of them are nice people I am sure. It is just not a good look to me and a bunch of other people I know. This is one of the reasons attendance is down all over the league. Another one is most Americans cannot afford the ticket prices, part of this is the economy. Another part is alot of people don't want to go see bad basketball, a bad product. I used to be able to watch an entire NBA Game on television in the 80's and 90's. Now I try to even watch a playoff game and I go to sleep after about 6 minutes in the 1st quarter. A last reason I don't go to NBA Games anymore is too much entertainment crap and noise in the timeouts. What happened to talking to the person beside you about what just happened on the court during breaks in the action? Now it's just convoluted NOISE NOISE NOISE ALL OVER THE PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!  Myself I would rather watch a good high school game or college game even though the entertainment crap has creeped into the college game also. As it is I say shorten the guaranteee contracts then maybe these kids will play for love of the game and we will get a better product on the floor. This is my rant for today. God Bless and Peace to the Creatures.        

Ordinance About Pants Worn to Knees!!!!!!!!!!!

I found out yesterday in my local barber shop that my Evanston Township here in Illinois is putting out an ordinance saying you can't wear your pants below your waist. I think the penalty will be a fine of some kind, this has been done in other cities in the United States, Philadelphia, and Lynwood,Illinois for example. So far these ordinances seem to work, but some folks in my barber shop was saying this ordinance is discriminatory. Of course I about went ballistic saying it's pathetic for anybody to defend that position. This ordinance does affect more African American kids than anything. Why? Because our kids are the ones wearing their pants down to their knees. How far should they go? To their calves, ankles, before long they will be wearing just underwear. To me this is indecent exposure, I for one do not want to see someone's underwear especially not a man's. Somebody in the shop did say why don't you go after women for showing cleavage? And I say to that sure, the ordinance should fine women for showing cleavage in public. I for one hope the ordinance passes because these young men need to show some dignity and respect for themselves by wearing your pants correctly and with a belt. And the original premise of wearing your pants down came from jail. In jail it was to show the other men in the prison that you are available. You folks know what I mean by "available"? So to want to fit in by wearing your pants that way shows me either you are ignorant, or have no respect for yourself. I know I am not going to allow any kid or aybody to come to my house wearing pants that show their underwear. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So for the kids that read this wearing your pants past your waist is not being cool. I might be telling other men that you are "available". This is my rant for today. God Bless and Peace to the Creatures. Have a safe Labor Day Weekend!!!!!!!!

America's Obsession With Celebrities!!!!!!!!!!

I will start by saying Americans in general are pathetic. Seems like they have no life of their own. Sitting around following celebrities and their lives like it's their own. First of all these celebrities could care less about you and your life. Most are too busy with their own and trying to reach into your pockets. Second of all following their lives on twitter or facebook is utterly pathetic. People this week talking about Beyonce's pregnancy and Justin Bieber's "fender bender" at his condo. Why would anyone care if a celebrity is using the batheroom or laying around the house? You see this kind of thing on twitter alot. I have a twitter account but it's only for sports updates and such. No wonder these celebrities get paid more than they should, these people would not be celebrities if it wasn't for teachers. Teachers should get paid alot more than they do, yet Americans need to be "entertained". I know people who are going to come close to killing themselves if the NBA Lockout goes on for a whole season. And others who were going nuts when the NFL locked out it's players. Here's an idea folks: STOP PAYING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY TO GO TO SPORTING EVENTS!!!!!!!!! Then those greedy owners and somewhat the players will get the message. But if you keep on being suckers and paying to go to these events then those owners will control you also. NFL made seasonticket owners renew their tickets during the lockout. ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME??????? ARE YOU KIDDING ME??????? My suggestion to you lemmings that follow celebrities, try educating yourself by reading a book? Or going to a museum, or riding a bicycle to get your cardiovascular system going? Get out of the house, and off the computer, and off the X-BOX and getting outdoors? And paying attention to every move an entertainer does is so pathetic on every scale. In conclusion get a life and stop following these celebrities who don't give a care about you. That is my rant for today. God Bless and Peace to the Creatures. Tim.
