Good. I was getting worried about you. Now we're back on the same page.

Kicking him off the team for constantly breaking team and school rules is silly?



And damn, the big black dude from The Green Mile died.

It doesn't even matter which rule he broke. Fact is he broke the same exact one multiple times and that should get you kicked off the team no matter what just for being an idiot that doesn't want it bad enough to stop breaking the rule.

No, I agree with that. I disagree with the rule though. Just as I disagree with the law.

It cracks me up how the marijuana users actually believe Michael Phelps smokes weed regularly.

i wouldnt be surprised if he partakes on a regular basis, or at least used to. i dont mean a wake and bake kinda stoner thing but mild recreational use.

You only said that in an attempt to troll me because I pointed out that your football staff will have egg on their face if he returns this season. If you think I give two <del>****</del>s about your opinion of tonight's outcome, you are incorrect. Much like you don't give two <del>****</del>s about my opinion of how stupid your football staff will be when they let him return.

Good news is, you don't have to care what I think about it. They'll be plenty of others to let you know

Oh I see the miscommunication here. I only said he was enrolling in classes at LSU this fall. He is absolutely not being allowed back on the team this season. It just sets the tone for him to return next year.

He definitely was not smoking the years when he was training and competing and ****ting all over the world in swimming, that is a guarantee.

It's just a black bear, those things are like the size of a large dog.

[imhungry (Banned)]

ive seen black bear before but never in an urban area and unless dogs have been getting to 300+ lbs they sure as **** are not the size of a large dog.

granted they are afraid of people and rarely attack but i still dont want to turn a corner and see one

[kfresh]

Black bears here rarely exceed 200, though we have the florida sub species.


still I don't see them as generally a big deal, a brown bear on the other hand yes that would be a big deal.

Black bears average like 300+ pounds, and one was killed one time weighing almost 1,100 pounds.

Small dog? More like small airplane.

[imhungry (Banned)]

in west virginia they get pretty large and in canada males get over 500lbs. the florida subspecies is smaller. if i saw a brown bear id cry and crap my pants


EDIT: that 1100 one was in captivity wasnt it?

[mrchuck234]

Nope, in the wild.

The reason that it's not legalized is because of the people who want it legalized.

[kfresh]

You must be reading the fun facts for kids on black bears, because i can find no scientific data for a 1100lb black bear, only that newfoundland has the largest subspecies of black bears between 300-600lb for adults. I find it extremely hard to believe a specimen was found at twice the natural size... a hybrid or dark colored brown bear is far more likely.

[mrchuck234]

The biggest wild American black bear ever recorded was a male from New Brunswick, shot in November 1972, that weighed 409 kg (900 lb) after it had been dressed, meaning it weighed an estimated 500 kg (1,100 lb) in life, and measured 2.4 m (7.9 ft) long.

[kfresh]

estimated, gotcha... because records from hunters in the 70's are incredibly accurate. (like all the 40+ft retic and annies)

Phelps does a sport where reaction time/agility means dick and hes such a freak in terms of this dimensions (wingspan, etc) that he can get away with smoking. If he didnt and he worked harder, he would be unreal. It also pisses me off how people can do tons of events in some fields and people measure medal count the game vs someone whose skill only transfers to 1-2 events. And Phelps is a raging ******.

Basically. People think use would go down and it would stop being so "cool" but I think they underestimate americans in general. Stoned drivers killing people would rise, use would rise, and the population would drift into worthlessness. Well. Even moreso.
