Every test I took came out neutral, so I took the weight bias test, figuring there must be some implicit bias there, and it came out neutral as well. Either I'm aware enough of my biases to sufficiently counter them in practice, or I'm taking these tests wrong. Or maybe these tests are worthless.

Or maybe you don't have significant biases. I've been neutral on most of the tests I took. Slight preference for black over white. Biggest implicit bias I had was favoring young vs. old. Which suggests I might be in for some serious self-hatred in a couple decades. :)

When I did that implicit bias test, I came out with a very slight preference for whatever was to my right hand! :D

Leaving your follow through up makes you a preening prick? By that logic 90% of the league is a prick.

But I see where you're coming from and the feeling is mutual trust me, lol.

You must not have seen the entire video, LeBron comes over the congratulate Wade like he just hit the game-winner...the atta-boys, the celebrating too-early. Golden.

It looks like the Washington area may have our own baseball version of LeBron :(

And I am definitely not talking about Strasburg.

Looks like our very own Rashard Lewis has a hand in LeBron's play lately:

"Before I get to what's going on Lebron, I just want to say that I just joined this website to share this info and I expect bashing and haters to think I'm lying. So having said that, take this as a grain of salt if you want, but the truth is getting out and it's not pretty.

Let me take you back to last year when Lebron found out that Delonte had slept with his mom. His performance went on a downward spiral and he never recovered. Well, I have a very reliable source who clubs and drinks with all of the athletes that come through Orlando. He was all over the Tiger Woods issue and knew what all happened with Tiger prior to it being released publicly. My buddy has a place in Orlando, Lake Nona to be exact, and he lives among some athletes that live there in Orlando. Needless to say he golfs, drinks, and parties with some of the best people in central Florida. So when word got to him while at the bar last night, he called me. Word got out while drinking with friends, that Rashard Lewis slept with Lebrons girl while visiting South Beach. Not sure how it all went down, but the guys he was drinking with all bashed Rashard for being a piece of ****. Take it for what it's worth, but this will all come out just like Delonte and that fiasco did as well.

This is personal, and it affected Lebron last year with his mom, and now this year on the largest stage with his woman. If you want to bash, then bash. But it's true and it's affecting him all around. Look at how passive, and how clueless he looks. Of course Lebron speaks like nothing is wrong, that's what he's suppose to do to get family out of the spotlight."

If bron's douche helps Shard to play like Lebron then I hope Lewis not only got some on his junk but shares it with his Zards teammates as well. :D

I asked lebron to change a dollar for me the other day and he only gave me 75 cents back because he didn't have a 4th quarter.

Wow. Just caught the video of Wade and LeDouche mocking Dirk bring sick after they lost.

Guess they don't feel enough people hate the yet.

Jeebus - exactly when did DWade turn into such a douche? He's mocking Dirk actually being sick, while at the same time, he (Wade) is lying on the floor pretending to get poked in the eye in a phantom dive a la King Douche.

Honestly, the douchebag quotient in Miami is exceptionally high.
