Riiiiiiiight.
I miss these parts of the internet so badly guys. I seriously honestly have no idea what’s going on in the NBA right now and it makes me wants to smash that cricket (METAPHOR!!!!) Like I hear Allen Iverson just got traded to Beirut for $22 million and three packs of ice cream sandwiches?
Why have I, the lover of the NBA and all the things that come with it (be it shows, commercials, blogs, player blogs, videos, player videos and snuff films), have neglected it so so much? Well, quite simply I have found this thing called Scientology. Look, it’s crazy, first we talk about Thetans then we can jump of buildings! It’s awesome!
But nay. It’s because I’m working towards a true creative career that is more working off other folks and as much as I loved the days when I blogged day after day — this new path gets me going places (literally.. like, going out to crazy locations with crazy people). Basically partying on for a while.
But also, it’s working towards something big, something called. Geeks Underground. It’s a new comedy web series I co-wrote and co-directed and co-produced and co-lost-tons-of-my-life over the summer.
It has the furthest thing to do with the NBA, but if you were ever a fan of this blog’s “humor” (the half of you still reading from the last time I wrote significantly here) you may recognize it in the writting for the show.
Because that was some crazy hard work I really couldn’t split my time photoshoping cows into a Michael Redd dunk anymore. Just as simple as that.
But we’re in post-production now so that “potentially” should free up valuable tv watching time as well as maybe pumping this baby up again. We’ll see.
Until then, the 3 bunnies that are still reading this thang: please check out the first episode: http://geeksunderground.com/2008/11/07/episode-1-the-return-of-andy/
Make superior comments and show it to the world please

You knew this was a long time coming. (Then again though, just a smidge weak in terms of The Onion standards of writing… still, I love you, The Onion, offer me a job and I’ll delete this post)

Year End Awards Presented By The Hotness Computer April 8, 2008

The Hotness Computer: Computing Away the Uglies Since 248 BC.
This year’s awards will recognize the truly beautiful aspects of the game, as mathematically calculated by The Hotness Computer.
The Hotness Playa: Chris Paul
Surely CP3’s magic can no longer be contained. It’s just bursting like tulips around this time of year. This guy can get anywhere in the court and no one can do anything about it, not even his mama. Averaging at least three alley-oops to Tyson Chandler (he got one up on Utah just as I’m typing this) even with teams knowing that’s in their nightly play book—that’s magician-like. Speaking of the Jazz, Deron Williams vs. Chris Paul forever please! Oh and being #1 in the West is no small feat.
The Hotness Underdog: 7ty6ers
Sixers? I don’t even know her. No seriously. I don’t anything about the Philly Ballas. Having them get into the playoffs, that’s sneaky guys. Don’t do that to me again. Andre, if you can windmill and do a somersault in mid-air whilst Dwight Howard flies over you? I’d be very appreciative.
The Hotness Hibachi Being Back: ARENAS ARENAS ARENAS ARENAS!
Hey, Agent Zero Time Zero Equals Zero is back y’all. That’s very important around here. So important that because of him (obviously) I will make a LeBron voodoo doll just in case they match up in the playoffs. Oh Bron, YOU’RE IN FOR A BIG BACK THIGH HURTIN’!
The Hotness of Filming Stuff: Stuff I’m proud to have done recently with classmates. Like with the Girltalk from yesteryear, we worked waaaay too hard to something that’s only a couple minutes long (come on Spielberg, call already!). Chek-it:
A 2min FILM (16mm what!) with the main idea of “space” and “depth” in mind. So don’t mind if there’s no story.
A another 2min short, this time with video, playing with “time”. There might be a story here somewhere. It has something to do with the LA Clippers, I’m sure of it. Also, I’m in there somewhere: hint, I’m not a tree.
Hmmm, so many video projects…just gives me luscious ideas that I should combine it with my other favorite loves, namely…sports…hmmm….(*rubs evil cat and laughs maniacally*)

Quit ya whinin’ sissy and grab them boards! A very “awwwww” story from the New York Times that just made my Sunday.
This side of John McCain, there are still 70 year olds throwing elbows and crashing the glass because … because they just love the game.
As a fellow rec league warrior that’s been playing with the same folks year after year this gave a tear to my eye, and not just because someone threw a ball into my face.
The other week at rec-ball the old timers were playing us young whipper-snappers and damn do they still got the whoopass going. I mean everytime dude post me up he’d do the Dream Shake and get to the rim. Mind you the guy is at least 2 feet taller than me and sweaty as hell… so you know it’s easier to slip by.
But wow, I gotta imagine that’s pretty much what’s it going to be for me in 50 years, balling like I ain’t on back medication son!

New Orleans Hornets: A Science Fair Experiment February 21, 2008

We knew the Hornets are on a mad run for the past month and a half. But we didn’t know, even as they beat a Jason Kidd fueled Dallas Mavericks, that they are a scientific anomaly.
Man, some of these pictures are so very Free Darko-esque that it blows my mind, after I’ve laughed 31 minutes straight. NINJA-UPDATE: Skeets’ brain is also thinking of all things Hornets Picture-y. I decree February 21st as: RANDOM HORNETS PHOTO DAY!!!

Let’s Get Lost Tonight, You Can Be My Black Smoke Monster Tonight February 1, 2008
Posted by TheHype in TV Shows, Unrelatedness , add a comment |So many questions, so little answers! Why did Hurley get off the island when he was totally like, “naw dawg, I be wif Locke son”; why didn’t Naomi cut Kate so we can be like “YES! finally”; why didn’t Manu Ginobili get an All-Star spot? And Holy Television Actors, Batman! IT’S LT. Deputy Commissioner DANIELS!

Chain of Command Hugo.
It’s all so obvious now. The Monster is Snoop and Jacob is the drug trade.
Catching Up With Everything In The History Of Everything January 29, 2008

…Which of course, means after this post, I’d be gone for another 9 and a half days. So be the fickle nature of life… and the bloody cold.
NBA: I hear Chris Paul is Superman, Batman, Voltron, Phrenium Cadmium Isotope-92 all rolled into one amazing player that is murking the entire Western Conference. The Western Conference! And his Hornets (ironically, they do NOT have horns) have been beating up on their Southwest Division brothers in the Spurs.
Oh, what? He’s not a West All-Star starter? Well then, the only emotion I can convey in response to that is to imitize The Bryon Scott Arms Folding Emotion of Anger.
Webber Is Back In The Bay-Ay: I look forward to the post game interviews. Please please Mr. Commish re-instate the Beer Drinking After Game rule. For all the jumping around the league, C-Webb still has that affect on fans, and opponents (somewhat…whenever he can jump) so it’s nice to see the whole thing come full circle.
What else? The Miami Heat is worse than my nephew’s Toddler League (and he’s only 13 months old!!) It would seem like I love to harp on the Heat (I really do) but it’s just poetic, seeing as how I started this blog so many moons ago during the 06 Finals whereby Riley and Co. were able to “overcome insurmountable obstacles”. When beating Indiana to snap a 15 game L-Streak is the best thing since winning the chip, let’s just call this team lottery worthy shall we?
The Wire: HOLY SHIT. They killed Prop Joe. You bastards. I’d say his death is worse than Butchie’s only because I’ve grown fond of his sage wisdom over the seasons.
Now that’s another incentive for Omar to get the guns blazing. Though, and I don’t know anything since I’m spoiler free, I get the sense that his invincible hit man just might fall down this last season. Paging Brother Mouzone… Paging Brother Mouzone…
