Feel like white guys haven’t been named Horace in centuries

White dudes gave up the name “Tyrone, Terrell, Jerome & Jermaine” collectively at the same period.

One of the strangest things

What’s the story behind this picture?

What’s the story behind this picture?

Think Meth debuted this picture when the Niketalk tees went on sale? Easily over 10 years ago at this point, I think.

Still get a white Marcus every so often, but pretty rare.

I was watching “Price is right” once and there was a white guy named Tyrone.

My actual name is Tyrone

But I did my research a long time ago and found out that it was Irish. Shout out Tyrone Power too. Legendary 1930s and 40s actor.

Females been saying “you better call Tyroneeeeee” every time I tell them my name since 1997

If I had to have an “old” fashioned name, give me Cleotis, Otha, or Leeadis, or Luther

I have an uncle named Leeadis

i've at times encountered milk maids throughout the pacific northwest with names like latisha, janeeka and tanesha that's left my head spinning

Man 1996-2002 was the best era of “made for TV a movies/series”

These Networks alwayyyyyys make exceptions for the NYC/NJ market. Plenty Knicks, Jets, Giants, Nets games have had no business being on TV but because it’s “New York City”…

Philly and Boston are literally in the same division. They’ll be on TV in their other matchups I’m sure. The most hyped prospect since LeBron is going to have his first game at MSG nationally televised.

”Milk maids” is a wild term

 

[getback]

How did she miss that OOB? Looking straight at it

 

[dman14]

and if Wemby went off and had a good game at MSG, he would argue the other way
"you have the most hyped player since Lebron visiting the Mecca and you put a random philly vs boston game early in the season"

salt

there are a lot of sports teams in the nyc area because of the dense tri state population & market which is probably the biggest in the country so that has a lot do with it, but there are cities with lesser amount of sports franchises that get comparatively more coverage in national tv apperances

this is just a basketball tv schedule for the season
let's apply that same scrutiny to individual teams instead of whole cities because comparing a place like minneapolis to nyc is

No one outside of New York cares about the damn city or its teams tho… this ain’t the 90s

Irish/Gaelic culture has some dope names tho.

They’re spelled crazy too.
