I see you.



Prince KGdaBom?

Edwards personal historians discovered LOL.
I'm actually the Great, Great, Great, Great Nephew of England's Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel. English police officers are known as "bobbies" because the term is derived from Sir Robert Peel, who founded the Metropolitan Police in London in 1829. His first name, Robert, was often shortened to "Bob," and his officers became known as "Bobbies" as a nod to his leadership in establishing the force.

Is that close enough?

Wow that is great. What a cast in this movie. Heath Ledger, Rufus Sewell, Alan Tudyk, Mark Addy, Paul Bettany, James Purefoy, Laura Fraser, and Shannyn Sossamon. It doesn't get much if any better than that.



“For he is like gold, and we are merely iron, and you would come here to watch him rust?” That kinda reminds you of fans booing the home team, no?

Yeah it does. For the record Gold does not rust. That is where a lot of it's value lies.

I am so Jealous of Paul Bettany. All that acting talent and married to Jennifer Connelly.

Video is blocked for me in the Dominican Republic. Is it Shannyn or Jennifer?

You guys have me reminiscing about the late and great Heath Ledger...

Might be time for a Dark Knight binge...

Early in his collegiate career, Shannon Jr. was amongst the long list of those hyper-athletic prospects that scouts fantasize about the possibilities if the skill set can evolve with their gifted physical tools. Over his final two collegiate seasons at Illinois, he elevated his skillset to pair with his explosive athleticism and became one of the best players in the Big Ten and all of college basketball.
Shannon Jr. finished with a lottery grade for me because I’m buying his 3-and-D Plus role profile. He’s a defensive playmaker (1.9 stocks) with value as a point of attack defender that shot 42% on unguarded catch-and-shoot threes this season (64 attempts) and 36% last season (33 attempts). When you factor in his self-creation and tough shotmaking ability, TSJ has a higher floor and ceiling than what he’s being given credit for.


Somehow I forgot that TJ was playing well as PoA defender

I like the Dark Knight, but I enjoy Knight's Tale and 10 things I hate about you even more. I don't care if that makes me uncool.

I really liked the writing of A Knight’s Tale. The “love should end with hope,” line is one of my favorite lines of any movies of that decade. He was great in Batman, but I think he was at his peak in the Patriot. It wasn’t really his movie, but it easily could have been. Gibson and Issac’s both had a ton of presence and carried themselves well, but Ledger put himself on the map with that one.

Romantic comedies. Not manly. I also love The Princess Bride.
