Yeah i think San antonio will win it again. Duncan is too fundementally sound. He is a true MON-STAR
But ya other teams that look strong

IN the EAST:
DEtroit
Miama (I love Dwayne Wade He plays basketball like a robot)
New Jersey (I hate Vince Carter, He is a traiter)
Cleveland
Millwaokee Bucks they gone be the slkeeper team
And ofcourse INDIANA they always do well

In the west...
Seatle
Dallas
LA (Both teams that is a first)
PHonix
Houston
Denver
and offcourse San Antonio who is my take to win in back to back

Politics › Re: Arabic Words and Letters on Naira Notes by JosBoy4Lif(m): 4:35am On Nov 18, 2005
The reason why we have arabic writing on the nigerian money is that it is a compromise of some sort.
at the time the naira came out the people of nigeria were sadly greatly divided.
north were dominated by arabic influence, nd thus were muslims
The south which was dominated by english influence became mostly christian, (except for some yoruba people who i dont know how but are muslim)
English Ajisafe, you may not believe, is a language dominated by chirsitians if we are to look at the religious connection
Arabic obvioudly is a language dominated by ISLAM. In fact many muslims are still educated in Arabic.

So back to the money issue>>
when the money was made most hausa people did not know how to readin english, this did not make them illiterate. Is a Saudi man Illitirate because all he knows is arabic? NO!!
Imagine what the response would have been from other major ethnic groups from nigeria if they had put hausa language on the money?
They too would have demended for their languages to be on the money which would have caused mass confusion>

The arabic words on the money just say the amount of the money in arabic that is that
Dont forget Hausa people have been a major force in the nigerian market.
In fact most trading in the north including the middle belt is done in Hausa laguage

And i truely believe that language is more than just language
Just like culture is more than just culture
tome it is essentially who you are, you must know where u have been to know where u are going

Nokia 6020
[img]http://www.fido.ca/en/images/personal/products/handsetdetails/nokia_6020.jpg[/img]

This one is my phone.
I think nokias are the best and have always been the best
(motorrola is probably second, followed by Sony-Ericsson, LG is the worse)
especially for a rugged naija
flip phones just dont appeal to me!
It is only 88g too
and comes with a digital camera with video aswell
the best ringtones/mp3 player
supports GPRS/Bluetooth
its pretty sweet
o if anyone needs phones unlocked
holla @ me smiley
Sports › Re: Best Nigerian Footballer of All Time by JosBoy4Lif(m): 3:38am On Nov 18, 2005
No one has impacted Nigerian Soccer like Kanu..
Thus he gets the nod fromme...
He is like the Nigerian version of David Beckham...
well not their style of play,but the leadership role that they possess. They are model footballers who play the game so tactically well
Oh did you people know that Kanu is boll-legged really nadly?
This is what makes him such a tall player that is ectremely quick
not just fast like an henry, but able to do maGic with the ball
