Why let murderer-juveniles out free when they are adults?

One of the most infamous murderers in the history of Arkansas was stopped & found with marijuana and a loaded 9mm pistol in his car in Fayetteville around January 1st. Mitchell Johnson, the oldest of the 2 Jonesboro Westside School mass murderers of 1998 in Jonesboro. The passenger, Trammell, killed his own father with a crossbow as a juvenile. The two killers live together after becoming friends in jail. Looks like they really "cleaned up".

Arkansas' non-punitive laws for minors led to him to only serving about 7 years for the murders of 5 Middle School girls and 1 teacher along with the serious woundings of 12-14 other girls and teachers that terrible day. Since his record was totally expunged and sealed the day he was released last Spring I think it was, that a Judge in Washington Co. released him on ,000 bond around January 2nd. Trammell was not arrested, he simply got a ticket.

What would you do if you lived by them? I see them as worse than sex offenders.

Fantasy football roster advice for week 3.?

I can start 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 flex, and 1 QB. Here is what im working with:
LaDainian Tomlinson - rb
Sammy Morris - rb
Thomas Jones - rb
Willis McGahee - rb
Darren Sproles - rb

Reggie Wayne - wr
Wes Welker - wr
Laveranues Coles - wr
Devery Henderson - wr

Matt Cassel - qb
David Garard - qb
Matt Hasselbeck - qb

At receiver im pretty much decided on Wayne and Welker, feel free to change my mind.

At qb im torn between the Matts. They both have great matchups, with Cassel having potential for a breakout game, while Hasselbeck has basically no one to throw to.

My main difficulty is settling on my rb/flex players. LT has been far from impressive and im not sure if this is the week he will turn it around or if i should play it safe and wait for his toe to heal. McGahee will be getting his first start of the season. Morris has been getting the goal-line carries and with Maroney and Jordan banged up he will be getting a lot of carries against a soft Miami team. Jones has been solid averaging 11.5 ppg although he has a tough match-up against San Diego. Darren Sproles put up 24 points last week so there’s obviously some potential there.

Please let me know what you all think. Who would you start?

 

Why do people think that Chris Paul is the best PG in the NBA?

I am not a Denver Nuggets or a Detroit Pistons fan, but it seems to me that NBA fans do not seem to differentiate the regular season from the playoffs. In that they fail to realize that the regular season and statistics mean NOTHING, while the pos-season and experience mixed in with confidence means EVERYTHING.

There is no question that CP3 is the best statistical PG in the NBA during the season, but Chauncey Billups has made it apparent to everyone that he is the best all-around PG in the NBA and the best playoff performer of his position of this decade this side of Isiah Thomas.

Not only is he humiliating CP3, but he is going off on the Hornets because he has the power to completely shutdown CP3 being that he is the best defensive PG of his position knowing that CP3 can not shut him down because he is a superior shooter to Paul.

Billups gives poise and experience to his teams and being back on the Nuggets he has changed the chemistry showing that statistically speaking Paul may be better maybe even Williams, but overall they hold no water in comparison to Billups.

I mean look at it this way Billups made the transition from one of the best defensive teams in the NBA that use a half-court set as an offense. Where he has won a Final and has gone to a team that was a laughing stock on the defensive end and has a uptempo styled offensive system. The end result is that the Nuggets maintained the offensive pace they have built up over the years w/ Billups at the helm, but have also perfected their defense by far. He is the ultimate team chemistry changer.

PG's like CP3 and Williams fit their systems perfectly in that CP3 is built for a alley-oop and athletic styled team a new school PG if you will who can shoot, obviously pass, and of course get steals. D.Will is just the opposite other than the passing that resembles CP3 he is a physical and built PG, like that of Billups (something Billups uses to his advantage over Paul) who can shoot and do what Paul does, but he is the epitome of a Sloan PG one that fits the old school mold and can orchestrate the pick n' roll, like Malone and Stockton used to do.

To put it in simpler terms CP3 is more of a vintage Kidd and D.Will is more of a vintage Stockton. Both great PG's, but totally different and if they exchanged teams their talent would still make that team successful, but their styles of play may not mesh if they exchange places with their ne team. Billups on the other hand is vintage Sam Cassell only 100x w. more talent.

In that Billups, like Cassell who hit big 3's in the Finals as a rookie Billups hits big shot after Big Shot in his career. Thus, "Mr. Big Shot" being created. Also, like Cassell a player who in his prime took a NJ Nets team from 20 win seasons to 40 win seasons, and Bucks and T-Wolves teams that were 2nd round playoff virgins before he came into the Conference Finals. Or how's about the Clippers who have never made it to the playoffs in almost 20 years Cassell comes and almost takes them to the WCF. Billups is the same as Cassell cut from the same cloth of team chemistry changers only Billups has a better diversified game with less titles.

Noneteless, Billups is taking the playoffs by storm and it could result in the Nuggets beating Hornets in a sweep and Paul can not do anything about it despite his obvious talent because he is no Billups. It is no coincedence that the PG's that have had their way w. Paul are Billups and Parker (2 of which that are the ultimate playoff performers and NBA Finals MVP's at their position).

Last year Paul was on a scoring frenzy against SA, but when SA started to play their half court slow paced game rather than conforming to NO and Paul's pace. That was when Parker took it to Paul and the Spurs won the series. Parker knew that his speed and knowhow could result in him getting to the rim at Paul's expense. The Hornets struggled w/ Paul as the orchestrator when they were forced to play SA's game.

Thus, showing being the best does not mean statistics. Overall speaking this is how I would rank the PG's 1-10 and playoffs play a large component to this.

Top Playoff PG's as of now:

1) Chauncey Billups
2) Tony Parker
3) Mike Bibby
4) Steve Nash
5) Deron Williams
6) Chris Paul
7) Derek Fisher - May even be up more for all he has done
8) Jason Kidd - Good in the playoffs, not good in the clutch
9) Rajon Rondo - Turning into a playoff monster
10.) Baron Davis -or- Andre Miller - Either or

On the cusp of making the list: Derrick Rose -and- Mo Williams if they play like this would be on list in no time.

Top 10 PG's in NBA as of now…
1.) Chauncey Billups
2.) Steve Nash
3.) Tony Parker
4.) Deron Williams
5.) Chris Paul
6.) Baron Davis
7.) Mike Bibby
8.) Mo Williams
9.) Jason Kidd
10.) Rajon Rondo or Derrick Rose

Devin Harris is not my type of PG because he is not the conventional PG.
Parker = 3 championships and a Finals MVP.
Bibby - Is just as clutch as Billups or Parker in the playoffs just w/o the rings. Bibby always fixed the choking mistakes of C.Webb and Peja. A team full of chokers that would have been nowhere w/o Bibby.

Williams - Always beats Paul in head 2 heads and been to the WCF CP3 hasn't

Bibby is not better than CP3 overall just in the playoffs. I think Parker/Williams proved they are superior to CP3 now at least.
I made a typo on my second list CP3 is not 5th that is low agreed that is the playoff PG list. CP3 is 4th behind Billups, Parker, Williams
Why not Steve Nash he is obviously a better shooter than Paul. I mean he is the only PG since Magic to shoot 50% for a season. Nash has done this 2 times. Has changed his team from a 20 win team to a 60, is a better floor general. Paul has defense and quickness on him and Nash has smarts and 4 Conference Finals appearances btwn Phoenix and Dallas. 1 off year does not change anything especially since Nash was unhappy all year.
No doubt CP3 will earn experience he is a great player and may win a couple of championships. But, when he does get the experience Billups and Nash will be long gone so they would not care. Parker will still be there he is 26 only for all his experience and then there will be a nice showdown although Duncan and Gino would be retired most likely.
Cevs I know more ball than you. You are obviously 15.
