Very Interesting
So, the 16 states with the highest average IQ voted for Kerry, the 25 states with the lowest average IQ voted for Bush.
Perhaps High IQ means low morals and values. PERHAPS. Perhaps the stats are not accurate. Perhaps. But its very interesting.

NBA Live 2005 Bobcats franchise update:
Season 3:
Just before the All-Star break I acquired Yao Ming from houston for Grant Hill, Kyle Korver, and some guy named Benjamin. This left me without a real small forward, but Michael Redd moved to the 3 spot without complaint and the second year player Cothran Tyson became my starting off-guard. Yao becoming my starting center sent the 2 time and reigning league MVP, Emeka Okafor to the bench. Stomile Swift did win the dunk contest, and Michael Redd followed suit in the 3 point contest. Then won all-star game MVP honors, just like Steve Garner collected rookie challenge MVP honors. We won the Southeast division and went into the playoffs where we went undefeated on our way to our 2nd straight NBA Championship (yes, its time to bump up the difficulty level). After the season, I let Stromile Swift go to free agency (he wanted 52million over 7 years) and moved Okafor back into the starting lineup at power forward. I was hoping to use this extra cash to sign Josh Howard, LeBron James, or Carmelo Anthony, all of whom were finishing their first contracts. However, all resigned with their teams. I was able to pick up Caron Butler in free agency to fill the small forward spot, but then I actually traded him to Dallas along with my just drafted center for Howard. Then i signed steve blake as a backup PG and theo ratliff as a backup center. Thus, going into season 4 (now on a harder difficulty level and with longer quarters) my starting line up is: Yao, Okafor, Howard, Redd, and Garner (2nd year PG). Not that anyone cares, but since this has recently been taking a couple hours of my day playing the game, I figure I should write about it. Hopefully I can go boarding soon and have better things to write about.
OH, exams suck. but i'm almost done.

an NBA Live 2005 update:
My Charlotte Bobcats Franchise just finished its second season.
The 'Cats won the NBA Championship, and Emeka Okafor was named Finals MVP, after his second straight league MVP award. In the playoffs, he averaged 6 blocks per game.
The starting line up was Okafor, Stromile Swift, Devean George, Ben Gordan and Grant Hill (as point guard)
After the dream season, I decided not to re-sign George in hopes of going after a free agent li ke Michael Redd. Redd however signed back w/ the Bucks. I also did not re-sign my backup point guard, and drafted one w/ the last pick in the first round (same pick that was used on J-Ho). I was also able to sign free agent Caron Butler.
Then I traded Gordan and Butler to the Bucks for Redd afterall.
so now, starting season 3, my starting line up is Okafor, Swift, Hill, Redd, and rookie PG.
Ok, so no one probablly cares about that.
I did go snowboarding saturday night. The conditions at Sugar were pretty good, not many slopes open, but just some wetness otherwise. The new board took some getting used to, and several falls. BUT I think I'm going to like it.
