hiring that junk yard dog lawyer in Eagle---turning her loose on the countryside.
chronologically refusing to be Daddy's "Gilligan."
making Jerry Buss put away the rocking chair post Daddy.
forgiving Jackson when he came back.
listening to Fish, 06-17-10.
listening to Artest, Boston MA., two years prior.
breaking the Celtics with a pass, 06-17-10.

Relating this to Karl Malone, did you know when you brought his hump to LA in '04 that you were doomed?

It wasn't his fault. Jackson must take responsibility for not sustaining Daddy & Kobe. He was the guardian. He was in charge. And he failed. Just because Media lets him the off the hook don't mean I have to.
