the undercover cop was prolly wearing a body cam while getting happy endings daily as a customer...I picture him telling the Lt. in charge that he needs more video evidence...



hey tail...at least the Rams owner is still a well-respected businessman.....oooops....he was the azzwhole who stole the Rams from L.A in the first place, shipping them off to SL when LA didn't approve a new stadium for the Rams....then he's a hero for bringing them back and building a $2-3 billion state of the art stadium with his own money, ditching the Coliseum which was the reason for the departure in the first place...rich folks who own pro sports franchises are not idols worthy of worship...

and a sports team's success, or lack thereof, should not influence one's principles...


f'n Rams were one play away...Cooks didn't make two plays, difficult TD catches for sure...but Edelman did...

tho you havta chuckle when the Lakers so got in Boston Celtics fans' heads in the 80's that they invented the pathetic "Beat L.A." chant that lives on all over the country today...

Didn't realize police wrote the headlines in Boston... Out here we have journalists who do that, and they write what they think will attract the most views...

So if the headline reads "kraft is a pervert", that just means that's the truth of the story that will attract the most attention... Doesn't mean thats the whole or even most important part of the story... Just the part that makes money...

actually "Beat LA" was a product of Boston Garden's fans high level of class a few years earlier.

They were about to lose the Eastern Finals to an excellent 76ers team when the crowd broke out in unison the chant "BEAT LA".

It was a tribute to and a show of support of a long term rival who had vanquished the C's on their home court. Hard for fans of other teams to understand.

Other cities picked it up cuz the Fakers are unlikable...HA!

Ahh, the origin of a classic.

But I didn't know other cities borrowed the chant.

Trailblazer fans have been chanting Beat LA for decades.

True about the headlines.
But I also saw some of the police press conferences and I maintain what I said before.

The emphasis was clearly on the Johns. VERY clearly.
The sex trafficking was a sidebar intended to make the arrests appear more justified.

Which brings up a bigger question, why did he have to pay those girls? You sprain your wrist?
