Lou is Somali through and through. Part Dixon, part Muqdisho and part Atl.

And yes, Somalia is situated in the horn of Africa

9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

You don't have to be Native American to be offended by the Redskins name. Unless, you know, the n-bomb doesn't offend you either. And if it doesn't, there's something wrong.

Just out of interest sake, what combination of ancestors would make 1/20th of a certain heritage?

Lou Williams quickly becoming one of the biggest legends to play on the Raptors
- He is part Cherokee
- He has two hot sister-wives
- On Christmas a couple of years ago he was being robbed at gun point and talked the robber out of it and bought him McDonalds

That's interesting. fwiw, Williams claimed his grandfather was "full blood" Cherokee. It's also possible he was joking.
