Ah, I haven’t busted out TT in a second, so for those that dunno what this is: It’s mainly just a link-dump. That’s it. Yawnerz.. And hey, it could be anything, doesn’t even have to do with NBA (which… well, is pretty much on par with every other post around here…)
So here she blows (think of the ‘bullet’ as a thumbtack, yeah, imagination!):
- So, John Amaechi… hmm… what to say about this… *thinking*thinking*.. I know! What up with his name being spelled “ae”? That’s plain weird. Alright alright, seriously though: When I first saw the rumblings at Sports On My Mind’s post at the beginning of the week, I really didn’t think much of it. That’s probably the best way I can vocalize my thought on this as a hoops fan—I really didn’t feel it merited much thought actually, maybe it’s just the liberal world I grew up in. So I still haven’t felt the true “importance” of this, that is, if it isn’t media-manufactured importance..

- Finally, I’m very saddened to bring you news that DJ Mbenga is out for the year…. so I’m busting out that tribute doodle on the right I made a couple months ago…*snif* Here’s to… better .. times *snif*, friend!

We’re all hanging in there… btw, on multiple viewings of the JT ish, I couldn’t stop laughing that the whole band had a Box on!
