The Carmelo Anthony signature shoe launch was dope if for only to see a couple of thousand NYC schoolkids got apeshit over watching French Montana perform. Jordan Brand does events to a tee and this was no different than any other joint I went to.
I wanted to leave with a pair of Melo ‘M9’s so bad that I almost let my thirst get the best of me. The shoe looks dope on feet and just from seeing the Knicks (and Mets – NY state of mind) colorway I got a little open. Anyhoo, I didn’t leave with any kicks but I did get to ask the based basketball god a couple of questions.
Wanna see the video? Well here it go…
The New York Times feisty zeitgeist prognosticator stops by the Combat Jack Show to defend his predigree. None of us wanted to take him to task tho’. Jon’s a cool dude. And who really gives a fux what his resume is?
I’m gonna tell you that the best part of the Combat Jack Show now are the mixes by DJ Benhameen. I wanna tell you to fux with this podcast JUST for that. Get ready for dubstep.
If the Knicks win the championship this season it will be because Carmelo Anthony finally got the mountainous chip off his shoulder and pushed the giant rock called Knickerbocker frustrations up the hill.
Sisyphus was a mythic king who was cursed to push a boulder up a hill in ancient Greece. Right at the apex of the mountain the boulder would become unwieldly and roll back down to the bottom of the mountain. Sisyphus would atempt time after time to push the boulder to the top yet he would continuously fail. His destiny was to do this for time immemorial.
The Knicks have been the NBA’s embodiment of Sisyphus’ struggle ever since 1973. Forty years of Knickerbocker fan frustration might just come to a close this season with a team combined of castaways and over-the-hill players. I feel like this configuration of cursed and ancient athletes bodes well for finally pushing that boulder over the hill.
