I think after the game on Saturday, Tay went into Baylor locker room and picked a fight with Austin.   When Austin said hell no, Tay stole his goggles and called him a little bitch.    Now Austin has no goggles.  Has to wear shades instead.   Makes since to me

A lot of cops wear those and shave their heads, but I haven't seen any of them shooting free throws indoors with them.  Don't know who the bigger dork(s) is (are).

Oakley Blades or M Frames were on huge display at my high school. 

They are also a staple of lake ppl.  The kind that cut tank tops out of old bar shirts and cut the sleeve holes with in 4"-5" of the bottom of the shirt and walk around with a yellow floaty thing on their car keys even though their boat key isn't on that key ring.

In February 2008, everything came crashing down. It was the last game of his middle school basketball career, and Austin had never dunked during layup lines. That's because there was a strict rule against it: two technical fouls, and you're out of the game. But working off of adrenaline, Austin took off, cuffed the ball back with his left hand and jammed it down.

The crowd went wild and a double tech ensued, but no one but Austin knew what he immediately saw out of his right eye: red. It was blood. The powerful nature of the uncontested dunk had detached his retina, which was the diagnosis the next morning when he went to the emergency room

Is it expensive to test for marfan?  I though that was why they didn't do it with a bunch of athletes
