Ball Don't Lie - NBA

Step aside, bored Filipino prison inmates ...

Last night, the Atlanta Hawks' A-Town Dancers and Harry the Hawk mascot paid tribute to Michael Jackson's popular Halloween staple during halftime of the Hawks-Wizards game.

The only thing missing: Zombie Zaza Pachulia(notes), of course.

Have a safe and happy Halloween everyone!

    well elchorizo5, the first time people heard of Michael Jackson's supposed kiddie crap, the parents that made the allegations in the first place settled out of court for money. I don't know about you, but if someone molested MY kid, there isn't enough money in the world that would convince me not to cut off their d**k and sew it in their mouth - so I dis-regard that as people that just wanted some "fast cash". As for the uproar from the authorities in Los Angeles, they failed to prove their case in court and Jackson was a free man. The whole thing boils down to the fact that it is far easier to be accused of something than it is to clear your name once it is ruined (whether based on fact or not).
    All that is neither here nor there however, since we're talking about the man's music and not how he lived his personal life, and I'll bet anything that before all this other crap came out, you were singing and dancing to his music right along with everyone else. The man had talent.

    lol instead of some long-winded argument about the use of the word "bored" while applying it to those serving prison sentences i will instead opt for: "alvin, you crazy"
