The Plane Boss!.. The Plane!

Back from Vegas Vacation, too much fun. I'm so tired, jet-lag is a piece of shit. Terrible idea to take 3 planes throughout the night. We left Vegas at 11:15pm and got home at 11:30am today. I got no sleep the whole time and passed out when I got home. I have no idea how NBA players travel so much, I hate it.

I'll probably put up some pics, maybe some video a little later, if I'm not sleeping again. Could be a couple days before I recover. It'll be rough but I'll get there.

As The World Turns

Man life is crazy, I would've posted this sooner but I needed time to think about it and process everything. Turns out my path to the pros is taking a detour, Yes that's right, I'm going back to school. I have 4 years of college eligibility left , so I might as well use it. I met one of the new coaches for Dutchess County Community College just playing ball at my old stomping grounds. Who would have thought after all those years playing at San Giacomo park, I actually would have ran into a coach looking for talent. San G was always just the place to hang out with friends and shoot around, City leagues and High School was where I was suppose to show out.

Hopefully this guy is for real, but we've been texting back and forth all day about paperwork and team meetings and everything else that goes with this recruiting stuff. This recruiting process is pretty cool, It's nice to be wanted for something that has been a serious part of the majority of your life. Everything's moving so fast, hopefully my instincts steer me in the right direction and everything comes out good.

Peace

Support Talent

So I'm really into covers of songs, for some reason I usually enjoy the cover much more then original. Something about a new take on an already good song does it for me. Good old trusty youtube produces some unknown talent and let's you hear or see alot of stuff that you never would off gotten of mainstream sites and what not.

This guy here can sing his ass off and he does amazing covers of the most popular mainstream song's out today. Most of the mainstream stuff I'm just not that into, but he gives it a good twist.

His name is J.R.A, he was an American Idol reject a couple years ago, but dude is nice and I believe he has an album coming out soon. I'm not sure if it will have a big release or anything, probably not but I still enjoy his music and would like to share it. Hopefully he makes it big someday, he's nice.

The song I put up isn't even one of his best. He's got alot of Drake covers(including a sick one of Best I ever Had), some Dream, and check out his original song All the Time, he's a talented writer as well.

808's and Pumpfakes

IGN has new info on NBA 2K10

This year 2K will be releasing a mini-game before the actual game comes out. You can make your own player put him through drills and games, and hopefully get him built up for the NBA Draft Combine. If only it was as easy in real life.

"You can design your fader, leaner, drift left or right, free throw and other shots using a list of presets. The same goes for a lengthy assortment of dribbling moves such as spins, half-spins, crossovers and hesitation moves."

When you thought things were getting stale, they do this. YES

Jumpers, Jumpers, ..... and a Weighted Vest

Went out early around 2 with Mr. Chris took a bunch of jumpers, stretched out, few more jumpers. Nice early workout got the juices flowing. Then Dame comes around with a weighted vest, I was planning on just doing a little run at the gym but jumpers with the vest took over and next thing you know I'm running around cones with an extra 20 pounds shooting from mid-range. Whatever it takes. Got some work to do on the computer, maybe hit the gym later for some more running. 

Peace.

T'Wolves have a Spot open

Jonny Flynn pursuing his dream


I'm terrible at Ping-Pong. Bad at epic proportions.

Atta Boy!

Joba killed it last night, 8 shutout innings, killed it. This is the guy I love to watch, young Roger Clemens for real. People were clamoring about trading him for Halladay and all that, and while they do have a good point and that might make them a better team at this moment, I just love watching this guy when he's on.

Menacing, Intimidating, chillin' on the mound with his tight ass hat low. Fastball, Curveball, slider, see ya'. Break your bat with the cut fastball and you'd probably get it thrown back at you Piazza style.

Bullpen or Rotation?, when he pitches like he pitched last night, it's a no brainer. I can't say I wouldn't mind seeing him for an inning everyday, but no matter what role he has on this Yankee team, when he's on, I'm watching period.

May the Force be with you

Good Afternoon, I Just got out of bed and boy are my arms tired(No that's not a corny airplane punchline). Haven't felt like this in a minute, but I went hard last night. Jumpshot and some cardio in alittle bit, we'll see how my arms hold up. Don't want to mess up the form.

The title says it all.

Nike Zoom LBJ Ambassador II

Reminds me of the new Kobe's, these drop Spring 2010. The last ones only dropped in asia, hopefully we can get some of these in the states, they look like awesome ballin' kicks.

I love watching Trainwrecks

Watch live video from starburytv on Justin.tv

Ummm, I can't look away. Sometimes I just check in on Mr.Marbury at like 3am to see if he's still alive, He's either bat-shit crazy or ..... well, he's probably just bat-shit crazy. Most certainly a great watch. Sorry Chris.

Late Night Videos



I'll Leave ya'll with some goodnight music

Peace.

First Day, Old Dream

How's everybody doing tonight? Yes it's late, never thought I'd do a blog, but hey why not, let's document my adventure. A couple post's down the road we can get more in-depth about me, but for now let's talk about the present. Just got done with my first serious workout, something light to get started but a workout that left me sore none the less. Jumper's tomorrow, more weights soon enough. You'll meet a few of my buddy's along the way, workout partners, crossover dummies, and maybe if my legs get right, future victims in pinup posters, Just kidding(sorta). Hopefully I can get some viewers I don't know and you can follow along and maybe one day we can meet. As for now I hope everyone enjoys my writing, I'm sure it will be long, but I know it will be fun. This is just another tool to keep me motivated and on track.

Peace, have a good one.
