    I had a course at Temple taught by called the cultural politics of hip hop: Jay-Z vs Nas. It was one of my favorites.

    Just doing my job. and I are working on an extension right now.

    I just saw jinx Scottie Barnes at the Free Throw Line so effectively. He told that man that he was shook. And Scottie missed both of them. Lol

    I didn't include him because of his racist character. I also didn't include the Grand Wizard

    I criticized Juwan Howard for his behavior a few weeks ago. Today, I celebrate him. This was such an important and beautiful moment. Salute to him for modeling grace, dignity, tenderness, and care. This is leadership.

    Most color commentators don’t have communication degrees. If you don’t think he’s good, that’s your opinion and choice. That’s also not what I was discussing. I was disputing the idea that he isn’t qualified to talk college hoops.

    Replying to @marclamonthill
    He isn't eloquent on the show speaking. He was a very good basketball player but he doesn't have a programming/sports com degree. If Univ of Kentucky and CBS want to hire him, fine. But we the people have every right to mock the decision all day long. You will take this L.

    I didn’t say it was the only qualifier. But to suggest that Rex Chapman, one of the best college players of his era, isn’t fit to talk college hoops is absurd. He has been a talent scout and NBA executive on multiple teams. He’s also been a commentator for years. He’s qualified.

    Wars in the Middle East aren’t “everlasting.” That’s an Orientalist myth used to justify racism and imperialism.

    Replying to @alfranken @marclamonthill
    For me Al, the answer as a Swede is simple, we find ourselves here standing at Hells gate next to Russia,of course that catches our attention more than the everlasting wars in the Middle East. Maybe cynical, but that is how we humans functions...

    Yes. He stole to feed an addiction. He’s recovered and healthy. Are you saying he should never work again?

    Is that the same who is a felon for stealing $10's of thousands of Apple products to feed his illegal drug habit?

    No. I responded to the idea that he “shouldn’t be talking about college basketball.” He absolutely should. And his hoops resume is absolutely a qualification for doing basketball commentary. He’s also been doing it for years and is popular. And no one compared him to Kareem.

    Replying to @marclamonthill
    You quoted his past skills as qualifications for television… they’re not. Horrible takes… all of them. You think Rex Chapman is just as qualified as Kareem to talk about basketball… that’s laughable.

    Your position is that, as a trained scholar and critic, I should offer less social commentary and focus more on crime fighting? Solid.

    Replying to @marclamonthill
    Maybe as a Temple U professor you should focus more on reducing crime around your Philly campus and focus less on tweeting.

    True. At 54 years old, he’s no longer a basketball star. Guess you think Kareem is totally washed up, huh?
