This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.
The Lakers' Current Playbook
“As far as I can tell from here at courtside, these are the Lakers plays.
-
1. Kobe on the wing. Shoots contested jump shot.
2. Kobe at the top of the arc. Either runs frantically around the perimeter to shake a double team or he just shoots a contested jump shot.
3. Kobe catches the ball on the block. Shoots turnaround jumper.
4. Something involving Andrew Bynum awkwardly trying to dunk, but usually successfully dunking.
5. Something involving Pau in the high post. This play should be run on half of the Lakers possessions. In the second half, it’s run maybe twice.”

The making of Common's Resurrection - Complex.com
a track by track first hand account of the making of Common’s classic sophmore album
LOL
recent realizations:
Perhaps I’m getting too old to keep up with the hip new catch phrases and buzz words that are flying around social media and the blogosphere. But why is “crazy” now “cray?” What did the letter Z do and why is everyone discriminating against it? And for you scholars, what would be the comparatives of “cray”? Cray, crayier, and crayiest?

The Video Premiere of Common’s Raw
The Dreamer, The Believer is unanimously regarded as one of the best hip hop albums of the year. The premiere of his most recent video on Complex.com is a dazzling display of Common’s lyrical wit, masterful timing, and artful storytelling abilities. Any story where I get to crack the bottle over someone’s head and get away clean with the lady is a good ass story to me! Not to mention that to produce this video, Com’s budget on breath mints certainly exceeded his budget on Crown Royal Black, making him a complete BOSS on all accounts! Enjoy!

Chris Paul: The Ambassador of Lob on the Tonight Show (pt. 2)
2nd part of Jay Leno’s interview with Chris Paul. This is why CP3 could never wear a Lakers jersey. He’s just not douchey enough for the purple & gold.

Jay Leno ain’t that funny to me, but this interview was great.

If you have not copped this album yet you need to stop watching “Sht Girls Say”, and go get it! The holidays are here y’all! I am grateful for my family, friends, and loved ones. To everyone near or distant, familiar or estranged, I am just glad to have been able to cross paths with you. And, I hope that we can all grow strong and meet again in the future.
