Celebrate National Running Day 2010…

nb nat running day

and win a pair of New Balance shoes!

Now y’all know how I feel about running for no reason, but as part of my promise to Chocolate Snowflake to become healthier and increase the quality of my lifestyle I’ve become more active at least in walking. Little things like eschewing an elevator or escalator for stairs and walking to my favorite supermarket (PathMark Atlantic Terminal FTW!) are part of the program.

But I am also admittedly a rewards-driven animal. My new favorite sneaker company is stepping in with a promotion that is right up my alley. [ll] to something being up my alley. New Balance is giving away free sneakers on June 2nd for National Running Day, and you don’t even have to be some psycho sidewalk jogger to win yourself a pair either. It’s as easy as going to NewBalance.com and creating a profile.

If the global epidemic of obesity in developed nations is secretly some alien plot to fatten us up because that will make us taste better at the armageddon BBQ then you are going to need yourself a pair of shoes that will help you run faster when the proverbial shit his the fan. If and when those stinking aliens catch me at least my feet will be comfortably stylish.

Where is Tim Donaghy when you want to ‘engineer’ a classic Finals matchup?

N8 Robinson two-piecing Kobe Bryant a la Chris Childs would be priceless.

The Clown Is On The Ba[ll]sachs…

^ And this sign I saw on an NYC bus is the proof.

I hit up El Gringo Colombiano to show him what the meme he created had become. Even corporate America is now embracing the pause button [ll]. Casimir pointed out however that McDonald’s was in fact pausing its own product which makes their swagger jack even more interesting.

Is McDonald’s warning us that their sweet tea product which has an undisclosed amount of High Fructose Corn Syrup can actually make you ghey? I wonder if they are trying to forewarn consumers that their beverage will put so much sugar in your tank that you will let Grimace fingerbang you?

And is Grimace a man or a woman? I feel like one of the fry guys is a fag too.

El Gringo Colombiano had an idea to hire Combat Jack Esquire to sue McDonald’s for intellectual property theft, but I had to nix that. Being that we like to consider ourselves as Web3.0 I think the best way to deal with the clown is to make the third and final installment of the Ghetto Big Mac trilogy.

We gotta tell the clown to show the internets some respect.

But first we got your ‘Stadium Status’…

Some of y’all might think I always h8’d on the Yankees by the drops that hit this site in recent years but the truth is that I love my city. And that means sometimes you have to embrace the Evil Empire.

Back in the 1990’s when I was on my big brother grind try’na teach the truth to the youth the Yanks were winners and they had a squad filled with old Mets that Steinbrenner had picked up off the trash heap.

So I stanned for the Yankees for a few years and here are the pics to prove it. Still and all, the OG Yankee Stadium >>> new Yankee Stadium or Steinbrenner Field or whatever they are calling it.

Celtic Rising…

Monday, May 24th, 2010

2008 SLAM

You can tell this cover is from a few years ago because the Celtics ‘Big 3’ isn’t buttressed by their point guard Rajon Rondo.

Rondo is approaching legendary status if the C’s go all the way and right now no one left in the tournament is playing with their confidence or determination. It starts from the PG position. Rondo is grabbing rebounds and loose balls [ll] like he really means it.

He is reminding me of Isiah Thomas and his leadership for that veteran team of Detroit Pistons. Except Rondo isn’t even 25yrs old yet. You knew he was tough for his ability to secure boards, but it’s his court intelligence that takes him to the next level.

Everyone will talk about the play where he dove on the floor, but this play right here where he gives Gortat the “banana in the tailpipe” (a direct Jalen Rose quote) was my favorite play from Game 3.
