The saga of Dontrevius Wenters lives on as Terrence and I had a chance to bring Dontrevius into Madison Square Garden, but this time with a media credential.
Dontrevius walked on the hallowed hardwood and kicked it with fans and Knicks legends alike.
Talking with John Starks about ‘The Dunk’ >>>infinity>>>
The Combat Jack Show with special guest Touré was one of those rare glimpses people will see which has a REAL discussion on race in America and the repercussions created by honoring this made-up social construct. Touré came to discuss the meaning of his book titled ‘Who’s Afraid Of Post-Blackness‘. What is Blackness? What is the value of white priivilege? Why is Combat Jack (and conversely Touré) an Uncle Tom? Why is Premium Pete a racist?
My favorite part of the show is when Touré ethers me on Boston Celtics history about that franchise having the ‘Jackie Robinson’ of basketball. Chuck Cooper was one of the first few African-Americans drafted into the NBA in 1950, but Earl Lloyd of the Washington Capitals was the first to play in the NBA. Still, his remarks held a piece of truth and that is all you need when you want to be a race trader. Touré knows this from a lifetime in defending all of his values against his Blackness.
As you will hear, the discussion was lively and filled with moments of clarity and humor. I salute Touré for having the courage to even enter the arena. You gotta be ready for combat if you are gonna be a guest on the Combat Jack Show.

I’m feeling the pressure to generate sneaker fiend web videos now that I’ve been given the honor of Complex magazines audience. There really isn’t anything on my radar to copp so I did a walk thru of one of my favorite ‘pickup-comeup’ spots in NYC.
Century21 is one of the places to fall thru for high end designer merchandise typically starting at half off MSRP. Everything in Century21 doesn’t get the hyper-discounted treatment, but if you don’t ever do a walk-thru you won’t even know what you are missing.
And knowing is half the battle. LOL
