held our company’s annual costume party at goldies last night. anddd… thats not really me in these pictures… i swear.
sound proof
was gifted some clubhouse seats to the sounders playoff game last night. although both teams were scoreless in the end, it was still pretty thrilling as both defensive-minded teams had their opportunities to score. the 2-game series swings back to houston next sunday.
best show i’ve been too
this promo video for kanye’s photography book of the glow in the dark tour brings me right back to the show. this show shits on jay-z’s show.
change of heart
cavs are 0-2 to start the season. can i change my mind about my 09-10 NBA champions prediction? seriously. in the last two games, the celtics and raptors have both exposed the cavaliers’ weakness, which is the same as last years’… the pick n’ roll. trading for shaq certainly did not help this issue as he is noticeably too slow. yikes. honestly, my new prediction is the lakers or celtics.
i know i know… its wayyyy early in the season and the team still needs time to gel with its new pieces. but right now, it looks like the same formula as last season. i hope i’m wrong on this one.
38 points and a triple double in the seasons first two games still gives me my mvp prediction though 
…or maybe carmelo anthony will steal the show this year.

mos def, black thought, and eminem rip dj premier’s tables to shreads at for BET’s 09 the cypher. eminem is my top MC when he’s seriously going in. he’s murdered every rapper you can name on the same track. black thought held his own though. whoa

get schooled
incase you aren’t up to date with what’s happening in the NBA this season… here’s your cheat sheet.

shoot around
finally, the nba season starts tomorrow. and although i play basketball all year round, as i watch it on tv, i get motivated to go to the gym to play even more so. with the hype running through my veins, im going to need to get suited and booted.
first things first… i need a new pair of shoes. all of my shoes have soles that have no traction left… not to mention the 3 pair of hyperdunks that i went through that i ripped apart (not pictured). my kobe IV’s are on their last legs, and for those who thought i was just a lebron guy, my weapons of choice say otherwise. i’ll probably go back to the kobe IV’s since the kobe V’s are hideous.
i’ve had 2 deep thigh bruises in the last couple years due to basketball. and if you ask anyone who’s ever had a deep thigh bruise, that’s 2 deep thigh bruises too many. i guess it doesn’t help when my thighs are usually level with where most people’s knees are. so to combat this issue, i picked up a pair of nike‘s new pro combat shorts. their deflex floating foam technology adds protection where your lower body needs it most (except your business), with minimal weight addition.
when im not playing basketball… im still playing basketball. finally picked up nba 2K10 last week and i try to squeeze a game in whenever i can. again, for those who think im anti-kobe… eat it. although, i’ve only used the cavaliers so far.
and sooner than later, i will finally brush the dust off these guys and put them to use.
smashing pumpkins
took mykah out to the pumpkin patch over in kent yesterday.
this being my first time at a pumpkin patch, i was a super noob and didn’t realize what i was getting into… literally. when i pulled into the parking lot, i quickly realized that it was mud fest 2009. luckily for me, i had some of my VNDS avias that ive only worn once in the trunk of my car.
quality check – did not pass.
it was getting a little hot walkin’ around in the sun. warning: not safe for work
mykah finally picked out his pumpkin… he calls her auntie.
federal holiday
happy birthday once again to federico “burnout” banzuela. you’re like 62 now. and i’ll always bring this back up for your birthdays…
