…and this has nothing to do with hoops jokery, so feel free to move along… BUT, this was what I was up to for the past 3 and a half weeks:
(Click to play)
We (our class) painfully did those frame by frame on Flash (see why my recent infatuation with it ha). It’s neat huh? I won’t even say which lil part is mine, but suffice it to say it’s not the best ones… far from it… damn my classmates are sick with it 
The original video here was from this Girl Talk documentary that can be remixed on Open Source Cinema, because you know, internet, remixing, blogging, re-inventing, mash-ups.. all that jazz.
UPDATE: wow, Pitchfork shows love to our tiny Montreal class, crazy! Thanks balljions TK.

Sincerest condolences to Stephon Marbury. Hang in there dude. Though this was made as a joke, hopefully in some small way it can cheer ya up…
Hmm, seems like I’m veering towards video-blogging eh… or am I? he he he (No, not really) I learned from the F-House masters that it got mentioned in NYMag, kewl! Applause for everyone!
In the meanwhile, I’m sooo close to being free I can taste it. A couple more days yo. I hear the NBA has been playing games without me. HOW DARE THEY. In any case, back soon for jokes, non-jokes and spacebars.

Whilst I am still a little pressed on “real” “life” projects (no fucking consideration for my blogs eh? bastards!). Here are some things I have done elsewhere which might be of interest:
– Thanks to the MLB geniuses over at the FanHouse a couple weeks back for introducing this, we have the CHRONIC(what!)CLES of Marbury. My entry is deep in the Italy wing here. But really, I’m just going to call it: this whole thing is the Best Comedy Movie of the Year.
– BETUS apparently has a sports podcast, makes sense. I was invited to slur and mutter nonsense last week. Fun was had by all, (thanks D).
– Um… BallHype has a new theme. Woo!
LeBron Introduced Wade’s Face To Uncle Forearms February 2, 2007

No, I haven’t seen that show before. Yes, I’m far too young to know its significance. But that phrase has somehow been burned into my subconcious.
ANYwho. Should LeBron be suspended after seeing that (or what you can make out of that blurry crap I call editing…) I don’t think it merits a suspension and neither did Kobe on Sunday for that matter. But since this is David Stern’s show and we’re all just watching—right is wrong, up is down and Shaq can run again.
That is to say I think (at press time) the lig will make the suspension because BronBron’s clothesline connected at the head and nowhere near the ball. That’s not to say his intention wasn’t for the ball, which is what I’m actually saying (he just timed it horribly wrong), but since KB recently served his due, I’m pretty sure James has to be ruled the same way.
I think it’s stupid that the NBA is setting arbitrary precedents for “flow of the game”-type contact and making a suspension out of it and I really don’t like the direction this is going. It’s one thing to clean up dirty play, it’s another to pre-emtively strike the players and covering it by saying it’s “for the people” and “democracy” and that “Saddam had WMDs”….oh wait, I’m TOTALLY off now.. anyway, where was I?
Um… go Colts! (I assume they are one half of the teams playing the pigskin pastime?)
Chris Bosh Is A Walking Flagrant Foul January 14, 2007

Y’know, reff’in with the NWA NBA is hard… hardcore. I mean, how else are you supposed to call ambiguous action like this?
Another example of this arose as I was tv surfin’, half watching some of the Raps/Celtics game last Friday that was at the TD Banknorth arena. (Side note: what up with TD center being super electronic gadget heavy—LCD screens on the scorer’s table.. and two shot clocks on each basket?? I’m sure soon the floor will be made of some sort of LCD-Wood hybrid…) ANYWAY, the thug Chris Bosh got served up a tech from referee Pat Fraher after he.. well, see for yourself:
That clip (which I edited!! go me!) shows you right up to the tech, but didn’t you see how uncontrolled Bosh was?? Unnecessary taunting for 0.005 seconds after he eviscerated poor Olowokandi’s dignity (or what’s left of it)! Didn’t you see how much that warranted a tech? Distasteful! He.. he should be sent to sensitivity camp, erroneous! Exclamation points!
In other Non-Sarcasm Land: The “hoo-hoo!” sound in the clip came from
NBATV’s Gail Goodrich, this is he on the right. Now, as someone that still has several more years left of subscription with “being hip wit da lingo”, I just can’t believe Gail yelped “hoo-hoo!” like he were with his homeboys. Damnit Gail, don’t steal from the youth!
