I think he's confusing "running tab" with "keeping tabs". The thing that confuses me is what caused OP to start this thread right now? Nothing actually happened the past few days. |

Some good responses in the thread. Thanks for those. Adding to the original post.
I suppose I didn't anticipate people would see the word 'tab' as inherently negative. Maybe inventory would have been a better choice on my part. It was just the shorter word. Some of the responses have been interesting. The initial list has more positives than negatives, from my perspective there having been a mix. Nothing sensationalized though.
Hoopschick, you'll be happy to know I took your advice  , but I still don't see anything wrong with the thread  .

Ignore!
Magic is an amazing player! I'm a Lakers fan precisely because of him. He's a Laker for life as am I! He has genuinely good intentions and cares for the Lakers! As for the rest, WCAF!

Magic Johnson Compares LaVar Ball to Kim Kardashian's Mom Kris Jenner
| Quote: | Johnson said he has "no problem" with the father of 2017 NBA draft prospect Lonzo Ball, and pointed out the similarities between him and the matriarch of the Kardashian family on ESPN Radio Los Angeles (h/t Des Bieler of the Washington Post): "Look, the Kardashians, we didn't say that the mom was bad, and she made them a lot of money, right? She's bragged on her daughters, and I think it's the same here. He's just saying, 'Hey, my son is great,' and there's nothing bad with that."
