On a hot summer's day exactly 234 years ago, Bill Walker invented the United States of America. Today, we celebrate Bill's creation.

Have fun, be safe, and try to eat at least one rocket pop.

and celebrate the way Bully bullied those red coats into submission to give us our freedom from oppression and that snobby ass queen who shows up at Wimbledon when it’s only convenient for her. ………cheers!!!

I'm happy for him. I think it was the right choice for him.

And personally, I really wanted to see what we have in Bill Walker with Fields/Chandler/Rautins before we go and spend the farm on a SG. Obviously Wade would be an exception to that rule, but, sometimes, you don’t know whatchya got til it’s gone.Boston coulda used some of that Walker sharpshooting when Ray’s guns were shooting blanks.
