The Boot Camp Clique Chronicles…

superboots

The boots above are part of the World Hiker series. They are super boots. Meaning they are some of the most intensive shoes you can wear. They are Gore-Tex lined and capable of withstanding temperatures down to 60 degrees below zero celsius. These boots don’t bullshit. I don’t wear mine too often because I’ve grown out of them, but I have several World Hikers that I still rock and two pairs that were handmade in Italy.

The following video features one of those Italian made Timberland World Hikers. This will be the final Boot Camp Clique Chronicles video for the winter season. I’d like to pick the series up again for the spring and summer if you folks are still interested. Let me know and keep sending me pics of your favorite boots.

Say Hi To The Bad Guys…

The UNLV Runnin’ Rebels under coach Jerry Tarkanian were the O.G. Fab 5 before the Michigan Wolverine’s infamous starting squad.

The Rebels were hated across America as much as Mike Tyson. Can you imagine how the story was posited when the Rebels faced the Duke Blue Devils in the 1990 NCAA Championship?

The ‘bad guys’ won the title.

fab 5

The Fab 5 freshmen from the University of Michigan Wolverines forever altered the landscape of college basketball without even winning a national championship. Their impact was that great.

Not only did this group impact the way we view college athletics as a commercial enterprise but the scandals that have arisen from the recruitment of these players still hangs over Michigan’s basketball program.

On Sunday March 13th, ESPN Films will premiere a documentary about these five teammates and the story about their time as Wolverines. The doc is definitely going to be personal and real because it is being exec produced by Jalen Rose, one of the members of the Fab 5. Make sure you tune into ESPN for this special presentation.

As the Knickerbocker bandwagon starts to fill up I was thinking about putting Dontrevius Wenters back on the streets to ask Knick fans what they think the final piece of the championship puzzle might be? Point guard? Rebounding power forward?

Nahh, I think it’s the game that Dontrevius brings to the table. Professional gatorade mixer.
