I’m sorry I don’t like Grant Hill. I hope he leaves. The guy isn’t capable of making our franchise any better or recruiting any players to our team. Maaaaaaann, get someone who gives a damn about the Hawks to be on our side. Get somebody who isn’t a shy passive dude like Grant. He’s too busy focusing on Kristen Ledlow on the weekends to care about us. The weakest part owner of the Hawks ever. Smh. Do something...anything.

11. It just seems like he should be doing more to contribute to building up the franchise but he seems to go almost total non-Hawk-related in his numerous on-screen appearances.

I'm half-kidding as, most non-broadcasters who have team ties seem to make it a point to not talk about their team while on TNT and such.

However, it does kinda feel like we should be getting more from him. I don't know what that means specifically but ... just a gut feeling ... and it's not the day-old Indian food I ate for breakfast. :)

Don't judge me. It tasted good doing down, I'm sure it'll taste just as good coming up, Right? :(

Dinners in the upcoming weeks will have a Brazilian theme, then a few creole selections, btw. And stop kidding yourself, you've been angling to get yourself profiled on 'My 600-lb Life' for the past year or so.

And lay off @jamalllll, he's feeling good since his year-long prediction of turmoil in our franchise is coming true.
