WHY???????????
WHY???????????

Why they let this crackhead in the club? One time when I was celebrating my birthday, a bouncer told me I was too drunk to be admitted. (after about 10 shots of Patron, I concur) However, I never looked this terrible. I was still cute just a lil unstable. This should be a universal rule for all clubs and bouncers all over the nation because who wants to see this?? Not even the wanna be ballers at hole in the wall clubs want to see this...WHY???????????

Deal with any relationship/marital problems that you have constantly. Never let little problems just sit. I recently read a story about “What's that smell”... Have you ever gone into your refrigerator and said “What's that smell”. You could not figure out what was stinking inside?? Usually its some left overs that you forgot about etc etc.... It's the SAME with relationships.. You must not push problems into the back. Your problems will not get better! On the contrary,, They'll ALWAYS start stinking! Deal with your issues quickly everyone! Whatever you leave behind you,, you'll always find right in front of you. :-)

Former Memphis Tiger and Grizzly Antonio Burks was shot as he watched six men gamble with dice in the backyard of a home in South Memphis, according to police.Three armed robbers came around both sides of the house at 353 Laclede just before 6 p.m. Monday and began firing immediately, a victim told police.
The robbers, who arrived in a purple or blue GMC Equinox or Envoy and weren’t wearing masks, forced the victims to the ground and robbed them of money and their clothes.
One victim, identified by police as Vincent Williams, 44, was shot in the stomach and robbed of $300.
Police said a 44-year-old man was in critical condition at the Regional Medical Center at Memphis this morning.
A suspect fired a shot at Daniel Chatman, 27, when he couldn’t get out of his pants quickly enough, according to police.
The shot missed.
Robbers took $3,200 from Chatman, according to police.
Burks, 29, was shot in the stomach, then ran to the front of the house and flagged down Good Samaritan Anthony Jefferson, 40, who drove him to The Med.
He underwent surgery Monday evening, but was returned to the operating room at around 10 p.m. because of internal bleeding, police said.
Burks was in critical condition this morning.
Others involved in the dice game were identified by police as Kevion Hardaway, 28; Tamingo Williams, 35; Christopher Burks, 28; and Clyde Wade, 26.
Wade also played basketball for the University of Memphis.
Police had no one in custody.
Burks, a Booker T. Washington High graduate, played for Hiwassee College in Madisonville, Tenn., before joining the Tigers for the 2001-02 season.
As a senior in 2003-2004, he led Memphis to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. He averaged 16 points and 5.5 assists and was named Conference USA Player of the Year.
Burks was drafted in the second round of the NBA Draft. Over two seasons with the Grizzlies, he played in 81 games, averaging 2.3 points, 1.3 assists and 9.7 minutes.
After the Grizzlies released him, Burks signed a one-year nonguaranteed contract with the Miami Heat, but that team released him as well.
He played for professional basketball teams in Bulgaria and Poland during the 2008-2009 season.
