The outrage over Robert Downey Jr.âs Oscar nod is predictable and misplaced.

Why can't we all dress in black face and call each other Ni99ers?

What fucking world do you live in where you are bitter about this?

I played basketball at lunch over at my Y.Its an older crowd so I take it easy.First game we play to 25 by 2's and I had 9 assists and 4 points on 3 shots.I had 4 sweet no look passes for layups.Anyway I'm decidedly the reason we won so during the second game I get the ball and dribble into the post and take a shot that rims out barely.This 40 some year old guy on my team looks at me and scowls "pass the ball".I thought I misheard him so I said What? and he goes "there are 4 other guys on the team, pass the ball".I proceeded to give him the business and asked him how many assists he had last game?He just looked at me so I said did you have more than 9 because thats how many I had.He wants to drop it but I'm like fuck that so I keep asking him if he remembered who gave him the ball for the wide open lay up which were his only two points of the day.He won't even look at me at this point so I get the ball on the inbounds after the other team scores and I whip a pass at him and say take us home Gary Payton.He doesnt get passed mid court before he loses it.I ask if he has any more advice and he declines.

I stopped reading, but I sure wish this had started "I had lunch at the Y."

2 early steals and a block and then my man realized what was up and set picks the rest of the game.I'm the black rajon rondo.

Sorry about KG.Congrats to the Lakers on their first championship in a decade.

hopefully it's only a minor strain.

the C's bench is atrocious after EHouse and Powe now, so I don't think a repeat is in the cards anyway.

The bench is a non factor.No posey is going to kill you guys.
