Nice pussy cat!
I feed mine, give water, shelter and spent money on her after she was hit by a car. I cleaned all the blood at midnight, gave water with a medicine dropper, carried her everywhere, hand fed her and continuously cleaned the puss that was leaking from her broken jaw and missing tooth. She’s back to health and still treats me like a stranger. Stupid cat!

HEY!
Im a long time lurker, finally I decided to create an account so I can post how much I hate that old and useles Tim Duncan and how we should trade Parker for a couple of second round picks. We have joseph and he is YOUNG and has lots of POTENTIAL. But popovich doesnt know anything about basketball, he clearly won 4 3 (1999 doesnt count) championships by sheer luck.
BTW how is manu with his recovery? Im eager to see what other stupid injury he gets when he gets back and keeps being an old european son of a flopper.
