    Default Jason Williams helped me not commit suicide...

    I'm a lifelong Gainesville resident, home of the Gators. When I first saw Jason Williams play here at UF, I fell in love. He only played 20 games before being kicked off the team due to marijuana issues, but those 20 games may have saved my life. At the time, I was about 14 and had already dropped out of school. I had a face full of acne, the kind you almost never see in public. I had no friends and I lived with my alcoholic mom. I wore my mom's makeup to try and conceal the acne, but I was called out for it by a kid while playing basketball. After that, I became a recluse. I wanted to die. However, after seeing Jason play his first game at UF, I knew I had to stay alive to follow his career. My whole life was about living vicariously through Jason Williams.

    Jwill, you will always be my first love.

    Oh and after Jason was kicked off the team, I called into the Billy Donovan television program and basically told him we sucked without Jwill. Awkward moment for Billy D.

    Cheer up OP, JWill + Webber brought excitement to the Kings. And then they traded him for Bibby

    JWill got the last laugh though, ring with the Heat in 06

    You're damn right.

    After Jwill was traded, he lit the Kings up in Memphis and the Grizzlies beat them. He cussed Adelman out to end the game. Epic Jwill.
