We Are The Champions!!!




It finally happened. It took awhile, and some money (Over 300 million dollars spent in salary during the off-season) but were finally champions. It was a great series by two great teams, but in the end the better team won. As you can tell from the hat I was wearing in that C@@l P!c I'm a Yankee fan. I lived right across the bridge (Nino Brown threw the the white guy from in the beginning of New Jack City) from Yankee stadium. I remember my father taking me to see my first Yankee game against the Chicago White Sox, the house that Ruth built. I saw something funny during one of the world series games. A fan was holding a sign that said "The House That Jeter Built". If you think about it, it's kind of true. With them having a new stadium this year and Jeter being with the team for the last 15 years bringing them 5 championships during his time there, shit why not? 27 MLB championships and counting. Oh somebody ask A-Rod how it feel to have that monkey off his back!

Shout out to the whole Yankee team from bringing a chip back to where it belongs, in New York! Special Shout out to Mo Rivera, Jeter, Andy and Posada for being there since our last championship and sticking together and bring one home already!

Meeelllloooooo!!!!



Get ready people, get ready to see something special this NBA season. Carmelo Anthony has reinvented himself during the last 2 years. I know I'm gonna sound crazy to some but I would like to give some of this credit to him being around Kobe Bryant during the summer for the Olympics. After winning the gold many of the players talked about Melo being if not one of but the leader of that team. We all know that Kobe Bryant is the best player in the NBA right now and think some of that rubbed off on Melo during that time. Anybody who knows me knows that I can't give all that credit to just Kobe but also Michael Jordan for just talking to him and staying by his side through his ups and downs. But like many of the young community would say "At the end of the day"...( I really dont like to hear people use that over and over while talking, terrible!)...he got his act together, started to appreciate being a professional athlete and now he has the chance to become a great player starting with this season.

This post was really for to talk big shit about how good Melo is playing right now. I guess I would consider him my favorite player since Mike and the demise of A.I. Currently leading the NBA in scoring, included in a lot of MVP talks (all of this you can check on your local sports website). I know it's early but I just got a feeling about this year in the NBA. Something's gonna happen!
