Ever see an NBA player who's over seven feet tall get jumped and beaten outside a club? You're about to. We have the video of former Clipper Keith Closs experiencing just that. This actually happened back in 2000, but it's definitely worth revisiting. Before we get to the video, a quick explanation of how this came up.
After a successful first week in my fantasy basketball league, I attempted to get some smack talk going by ripping on my opponent for the week, who I had just dropped by the count of 7-2. For you non-fantasy geeks, it means I beat him in 7 of 9 categories: a severe ass-kicking. So I said something along the lines of, "I haven't seen a beating like that since Keith Closs was with the Clippers!" I thought I was pretty funny, and living in Los Angeles it's a reference I was sure everyone would get. I was wrong.
Most of the guys in the league are 10 or more years younger than I am, so the response I got back was "Keith who?? You might be too old for this league." So basically because I got called "old," that set Craig and I off on an all-morning Google search for the infamous video. Nothing! After some digging, we discovered the video came from an out-of-print Death Row records "enhanced cd." Craig tracked it down and purchased it, and now we bring it to you.
Because this is copyrighted material and I have no desire to get murdered by Suge Knight, there's no You Tube on this one, you'll have to download it here.
The Clippers finished the '99-'00 season at a miserable 15-67, which led to one of the funnier jokes about this video:
I guess one Clipper got beat 68 times this season!
uh oh . i though that was jalen rose in clips uniform and afro !

Funny highlight, aceboonkk.
That, along with the Beatdown video, best sums up the Keith Closs era.

In my children time i love the

The first stop was Singapore, which I met up with a group of time zones there. After lunch and lots of chat, we headed down to Orchard Road, the street, which is probably the most watched high ratio of one square meter in the world.

son is 36 years old. He's in federal prison for seven years, which is more than often the outcome when a child is diagnosed with ADHD, LD, and bipolar.
Mike was in special education classes from the 1st grade. His Dad and I did everything we knew to do to help him, including private tutors and working with him ourselves (like most parents in our situation).
Mike did graduate from high school. His overall average was in the low 70's. A 70 is required to graduate here. He didn't have the low average because he was lazy. The average was the best he could accomplish.
My question is, why doesn't the legal system take into consideration if a person has learning disabilities and/or mental illness? This about drives me nuts. There is quite a bit of difference between a person with learning disabilities and who is mentally ill than the average person. They're also much much easier to be influenced to break the law by others.

How actively will you be using your running shoes? A woman that runs 25 miles or more per a week is going to need a more durable shoe than a woman that runs a shorter distance.

Moreau. Rookie library use is another problem, paper view, play and stream outside his Montana - Ellis's rotten war style is very complementary, at least on the offensive end is no problem. As for the defensive end height is limited, it seems that should not have considered in Nelson within. The results? Ellis says that in the pre-season and Curry do not want to cooperate in the backcourt, how to solve this problem remains to be seen.
