Will a Boston vs. L.A. Finals live up to the hype?
The NBA referee gambling scandal is unfolding into some serious shit. Not that is wasn’t serious already, but the details that are emerging are interesting. The thing about betting on sports is not so much whether a team wins or loses but what the ‘point spread’ is at the end of the game.
The point spread is the number of points separating the winning and losing teams in a game. For instance, the Phoenix Suns lost to the Dallas Mavericks 105-108 back in December despite 18 assists by STEVE NASH of the Suns. The point spread of this game ended up being 3 points. Dallas, the home team, was favored by three. Dallas did not COVER the spread.
Even though they won the basketball game the Mavericks actually lost the bettor’s game. Dallas had been leading by as much as 17 points uring the contest. A late push from Phoenix thanks to free throws helped close the gap.
Referees keep good players on the court or OFF the court and I can’t help but think that TIM DONAGHY was so far gone that he manipulated even more than the over 100 games he has admitted to. This dude was addicted to the rush of gambling so bad he was on the verge of going all JEFF GILLOOLY on KOBE BRYANT’s knees. Right now the NBA needs to pull some magic out of their ass to distract everyone from the fact that their brand of entertainment is severely compromised.

GO SEE SPEED RACER!
Wednesday, May 14th, 2008
I can’t remember so many good movies being released in the same summer. It is mind-boggling to say the least. Indiana Jones’ latest installation drops next week, the Hulk is on its way, Star Wars will have an animated feature and lets not forget the Bat.
If you are concerned about your ability to afford to see all of these flicks in the theater then I suggest you start returning your empty soda cans. Each one of them has previewed a trailer that has been something like a SUGE KNIGHT sighting in the club – lights out. Of all the movies that I had on my list to see this summer ‘Speed Racer’ held the least expectations. At the end of the summer I might just say that ‘Speed Racer’ was the best.
The WACHOWSKI brothers got this one off biggtime. ‘Speed Racer’ has action and comedy moving at you faster than the legendary Mach 5. What impressed me more than anything was the WACHOWSKI’s fidelity to the O.G. cartoon characters without becoming a camp-fest of nostalgia and nonsense. There have been several movies which were derived from cartoons and none of them hit the mark like ‘Speed Racer’ does.
You really want to know how good this film is? Chocolate Snowflake, who is my best and most thorough critic is willing and excited to sit through this movie again. C.S. liked ‘Iron Man’ but hasn’t accompanied me to any of my subsequent screenings. ‘Speed Racer’ is silly at times but it never gets off track from its mission which is to prove that determination and justice will triumph in the end.
I say that the WACHOWSKI brothers got this one off because I wasn’t really fucking with them too tough after learning about how they stole the ‘Matrix’ storyline. Despite the fact that the WACHOWSKI’s cast a gang of Black people as heroic characters in that series. I still felt a kind of way. The truth is the WACHOWSKI brothers operate to their own drummer and they make fucking good movies. ‘Speed Racer’ has Black characters and faces throughout which satisfies my internal NAACP quota and it isn’t egregious or tokenistic. It just is what it is.
But bigger than all of that was the direction which took this movie to another level. The WACHOWSKI brothers take you into a kaleidescope of colors, shapes and sounds. the car races are about throwing the laws of physics against the wall and just having fun. The fight scenes are better than anything in the Matrix. Nerditry wasn’t lying about this being the perfect film to trip at. C.S. is on her way to San Fran this weekend to see her girlfriend so when the cat is away the mice will play. Well, the mice will trip. I’m copping some IMAX tickets to this joint for Saturday night. Holler at the kid if you are trying to go in[ll]. Go speed go.
SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!
Monday, May 12th, 2008
True story is that when 40 Diesel hit me on the com-link this Saturday I was a few steps from my favorite sneaker spot of the moment.
Dr. Jay’s on Fordham Road is killing the game right now with their ridiculon sales of general release and urban account NIKE kicks. I’m talking about $20 and $30 for fly shit. And when you spend the amount of guap that I do on footwear its cool to come up on shoes for 70% off the manufacturer’s suggested retail price, or MSRP as we say in the acronymonic game.
This week’s drop features the shoes issued as an homage to the groundbreaking action figure franchise that became a cartoon, then a comic book and now a soon to be released feature film. There were three(3) different styles that were created for the G.I. Joe pack. Dr. Jay’s was selling the Air Assault retro for $30. I had to get in where I fit in.
The camo print is on some futuristic nuclear forest type shit. I won’t even try to match these kicks with anything else. Why bother? Extra sets of laces is the minimum right now. I love the inside materials as much as the outside like the padded collar and the printing on the insoles. With all the outdoor music festivals scheduled for this summer I won’t feel a kind of way if by August these shoes are muddied up beaters. I wish I could score all my Air Max shoes for $30.
Can we get this popping Dr. Jay’s?
