I'm not a big fan of taking other teams players on loan but I can't think of any keepers who are free agents that I would take.

Portugal decriminalised drug use/possession years ago and started treating drug use as a health concern rather than a criminal offence, and now has one of the lowest percentages of drugs deaths per year (3 per million people) in Europe. Addicts are now referred to treatment programmes rather than charged for a criminal offence. "Legal high" use is virtually non-existent in Portugal, while such substances like synthetic cannabis and "bath salts" cause great physical and psychological harm and even deaths in the UK. No-one ever choses to become addicted to a substance. Drug use is often a symptom of something that goes a lot deeper than merely taking drugs for "a buzz" . People who suffer from mental illness or childhood abuse, domestic abuse etc sometimes end up turning to drugs as a means of escaping reality.

What's Ryan Stevenson up to these days? He was a decent goalie.

Anyone got a stream?

I am left-handed and have Dyspraxia, so naturally my handwriting is shite.

We need to sign a backup for Hare-Reid.

Nice one. Marillion are great.

Was there not a war on m8? Draft dodging b*****d.

Biggie and Big L were great. ODB maybe wasn't the most gifted and was very unorthodox but he was funny and a unique character who was part of one of the best rap crews of all time. Eazy E - didn't even write his own songs. All of his lyrics were written by any of Ice Cube, MC Ren or Knocturnal (I think?). I know he's respected for being a figurehead but I find it hard to take rappers who don't write their own words seriously. Surely the whole point of rapping is to come up with your own lyrics?

No he was just the most obvious example.

No. If you want specific names I was referring to 2Pac who, while good, is nowhere near as amazing as people make out. I could probably name at least 15 rappers better than him.

Elvis Costello tonight.

The 2016 playoffs were two years ago. Get help.

Have a Cee-Lo.

People should be judged for their actions rather than automatically canonised upon death. After all, death happens to everyone and the idea that people who are dead should not be condemned or criticised for their behaviour is ridiculous.

Finished the Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas. Shamefully I had not read it before. Thoroughly enjoyed it though and plan on reading the rest of the series. Currently reading The Count of Monte Christo.

As your namesake once said.

Has our scout friend suggested Andy Leishman yet?

There is (or at least there used to be) a tendency for people to raise up dead rappers as some kind of martyrs who are above all criticism, despite: a) them being awful people who have made poor life choices and decisions that lead to their own deaths and b) not being anywhere near as good as their posthumously acquired reputation might suggest. I didn't know this guys music, but it appears that he is no real loss to the world.

I had the pleasure of meeting Xxxtentacion at a charity do. He was surprisingly down to earth and VERY funny.

I'd agree. For some reason people seem to think Messi is the greatest, but for me it isn't even close. CR7 pishes and shits all over Messi.
