I understand that its the # on the left side minus 2 times the # on the left side but I have a real big issue with them using the equal sign for the purposes of this mathematical analogy

nothing wrong with it

(9-2)*9 = 63

420 + 2915 - 2915 = 420

420 + 2915 - 2915 = 420

Kyrie Irving Believes the Earth is Flat

Cleveland Cavaliers teammates Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye host a podcast on the team's website, and the most recent installation Friday veered into conspiracy theory territory, including the JFK assassination, the existence of aliens, and whether the world is flat.

Well, count Kyrie Irving among those who think that Earth isn't round.

"This is not even a conspiracy theory," Irving said, not in a joking manner. "The Earth is flat."

As Jefferson, Frye, and Cavs broadcaster Allie Clifton gave the All-Star point guard the gears over his loaded statement, Irving dug in. "It's right in front of our faces," he said. "I'm telling you, it’s right in front of our faces. They lie to us."

Irving didn't offer a theory on who "they" are, although there's a significant movement of people who believe the planet is in fact flat, despite all evidence to the contrary and the protestations of astronauts, physicists, scientists, pilots, meteorologists, or just about any other "ist."


An key ingredient in this doubt is that a substantial number of people believe agencies like NASA have staged space exploration, even surmising the 1969 moon landing was filmed on a Hollywood sound stage.

"What I've been taught is that the earth is round," Irving added. "But if you really think about it from a landscape of the way we travel, the way we move and the fact that, can you really think of us rotating around the sun and all planets aligned, rotating in specific dates, being perpendicular with what's going on with these planets ... there is no concrete information except for the information that they're giving us."

Yeah, I thought that too, but shouldn't it be flat instead of just deflated?

An editor at a major news magazine (not U.S. News) told me recently that Google can monitor people only when they sign in to a Google platform – Gmail or Google+, for example. Not so, I replied. Google can and does monitor people – perhaps upwards of 90 percent of Internet users worldwide – whether they use a Google product or not, and most people have no idea they're being monitored.
