Brandon Jennings stating what everyone thought during the time of Isiah



The kid missed english. He doesn't know shit in Spanish nor fuck you in Italian making his mouth shut when he could talk trash with the Europeans. Now that he's back in the states, he quickly hooked up with this rapper, Joe Budden, and unleashed tirades reminiscent of Christian Bale.

Unknown to him it was recorded.

Fuck the Knicks! said little Jennings.

Hey that's what we thought when Isiah Thomas was in the Knick's bench drawing a play that would enable the opposition to score.

Here's the rest of the conversation I got from The Baseline:
On next season in Milwaukee ...

Budden: You better worry about Ramon Sessions, diggin' in your a**, pause.
Jennings: He's not going to be here. [inaudible] That money is going to Charlie.
Budden: N****, Ramon Sessions is gonna be there.
Jennings: I doubt it.
Budden: They ain't go no other guards.
Jennings: Ridnour.
Budden: N****, get that bum-a** n**** outta here.
Jennings: He's going to be a backup.
Budden: To who?
Jennings: To who? Who else n****?

On what happened on draft night ...

Budden: Who was hatin' on you?
Jennings: Jay Bilas.
Budden: What happened? You ran in the draft late or some dumb s*** like a loser?
Jennings: No, I was at the hotel. This is what happened right. My agent is like "Well, we ain't hear nothing .We ain't have no guarantee." So we makin' phone calls and s*** and n***** is saying like "The workouts is great and everything and he's the best point guard but we don't know yet, we just don't know."
Budden: They didn't say that about Rick Rubio, number one, and number two they didn't say you the best point guard. They said your jump shot is shaky, you got some potential, but your work ethic is bull****. You averaged 3 points.
Jennings: You're a liar. I know you're lying now.
Budden: I'm just telling you what they said.
Jennings: That ain't nothing but a college person.
Budden: Just tell me what happened. You end up running in the draft? I tunred it off after that.
Jennings: No, n****, I came out there and made my appearance n**** and I had the best appearance out of all them n******. And I was the best dressed, they said, by the way. I was the best dressed.

On whether he'll start next season ...

Budden: You think you gonna start for real though?
Jennings: I don't know, actually, I really don't know.
Budden: I heard that n**** Scott Skiles is an a**h***.
Jennings: That n**** tough, that n**** tough though. There must be a reason he liked me. There must be a reason.

On Ricky Rubio and the Knicks ...

Budden: Let me know when Minnesota get there. So I can watch Rubio light your f****** a** up. I never seen a n**** hate on Rubio so much.
Jennings: [inaudible]
Budden: You know what's funny? You're the only guard in the draft talking s*** about Rubio.
Jennings: The other n***** are scared.
Budden: What are you going to do when Rubio comes to the Knicks?
Jennings: Rubio is not coming, they are not giving up Rubio. You got Jordan Hill, you happy with that?
Budden: I don't really know enough about Jordan Hill to be happy ... I'm happy with Toney Douglas.
Jennings: I know they were booing this n****.
Budden: What does that mean? They boo everybody n****.
Jennings: If it was Stpehen Curry, them n***** would've went crazy in there.
Budden: Shut the f*** up, you don't even know nothing about New York basketball.
Jennings: F*** the Knicks, them n***** skipped out on me.
Budden: Oh man, you feel to the Knicks like I do about Jay-Z? [Laughs] Yo, the Knicks is your Jay-Z?
Jennings: F*** the Knicks, them n***** is always going to be weak.
Budden: This is where I f****** hang up on your f****** ass for talking stupid.
Jennings: Duhon ain't gonna get it done.

Rocket's fortune cookie: No Yao


The foundation of the the NBA's Great Wall is now showing a strong evidence that it's not made to last. News is out that Yao Ming's future not only as a Rocket but as a player is in a blur for having that left foot injury.

All this years of running for transition defense, jumping for rebounds, jockeying for position, and walking a dog at the park tortured the Chinese mastodon's feet. With a height not really normal for us humans, the Robert Wadlows of the world obviously are the most vulnerable to feet injuries.

According to Rocket's team physician Tom Clanton, Yao's absence might not only eat up most of the next season and going as far as to say that the injury is "career threatening".

That might need some acupuncture needles. No, I mean roof nails.

NHL 2009 Entry Draft




The NHL entry draft 2009 happened a day after the NBA version and it should not take a lengthy congress debate as to which is more popular. While the whole population knows who Blake Griffin is even before he started to learn how to flip birds, an ESPN poll revealed that 38% of its respondents thought John Tavares was a U.S soccer midfielder.

Only goes to show you why I only thought of posting it today but seriously, I personally think that the previous Stanly Cup Playoffs was better than that of the NBA including the finals.

Here are the first round draftess of batch 2009:

1. John Tavares, N.Y. Islanders, c, London (OHL)

5. Brayden Schenn, Los Angeles, c, Brandon (WHL).

The complete list of the NHL 2009 Entry Draft

Mariano saves his team for the 500th time


Before it was only Hoffman, now comes Mariano Rivera thus giving baseball a reason to call it a club. Rivera got his 500th career save after closing a Yankees 4-2 victory over cross-street rivals New York Mets.

All-Time Saves Leaders

Trevor Hoffman-571
Mariano Rivera-500
Lee Smith-478
John Franco-424
Dennis Eckersley-390

Rumor has it that the LA Clippers and Detroit Lions are begging this men to study their sport and be part of their roster. Another marvelous idea!

Werth's blast in to the fifth level exile




the700level
From the same guy that produced four stolen bases in a game this season (including three in the 7th inning), comes another hit from Jayson Werth when he batted the ball back, back, back, and back in to fifth level exile in the Toronto Blue Jay's home field-Roger Centre.VIDEO Clip

I knew it. I could have been a movie trailer copywriter.

The feat made Werth only the 14th player to do so and the first one since 2004. The game was won by the Phillies via 10-0 riding on a 4-4 by Jayson "him again" Werth.

As a consolation to the Jays, no pop-corn was thrashed by the ball.

Alex Rodriguez passes Reggie Jackson in career homerun list


Reggie Jackson just got his homerun record surpassed by Alex Rodriguez and according to my estimate, it will only take the time of about a few syringe pumps before the Dominican slugger marches on to surpass the next one.

His 564th career HR was made as he sent one to the bleachers helping the Yankees rout the Mets 9-1.

Prior to the Mets game, A-Rod sent the ball into centerfield in Atlanta to tie the 563 of Reggie Jackson good for the 11th place in the list.

Rodriguez admitted last February that he had been injected with PEDs with the help of his cousin during the early years of 2000s saying his being young and naive made him do so. As of the moment, I'm still young and naive and stupid also to believe that his statements are not horseshits but words sort of biblical wisdom.

Chad Ocho Cinco's tweeting about the death of Michael Jackson and it's connection to 9/11. Brilliant.

Bengals wide receiver Chad Johnson err, Chad Ocho Cinco posted a tweet regarding the death of Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson comparing this day's sorrow to that of 9/11. His tweet went under fire by other tweets as well saying his published thought was obtuse and undeserving of such juxtaposition.

As those angry tirades started to pile up, Mr. Ocho Cinco apologized saying he's just in an emotional state. Meaning he's not in the mood at the moment to race with a horse.

Tiger got schooled in Golf by Fallon. yawn. WHAT?!

Jimmy Fallon has the envious achievement of beating Tiger in a golf match after he offered the challenge earlier this week. It could have been more rolling-on-the-floor envy for us if he pulled it off in the real grass. But no, this Fallon fella brought down the Tiger by virtually beating him on Wii's Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10.

The showdown between the two was staged on Time Square with numerous tourist making themselves instant spectators.

Fallon was for par as against Wood's double-bogey and a bogey before he called it quits just before the third hole. Once it was over, Fallon was in ecstasy his face resembling a full page print of his face.

Sit back and enjoy as we witness the single best performance in virtual golf history by any guy named Jimmy Fallon who was born in Brooklyn and is a comedian in his thirties.

NBA Draft 2009




Draft day is done and there goes Griffin to the Clippers.And no people. He is not to be another Michael Olowokandi. He is supposed to be the Patrick Ewing, the David Robinson, the Hakeem Olajuwon of a franchise who always end up OWNING itself.

And so goes the Marianas Trench pressure on his shoulder with Clippers fans standing on the other yapping to his ear to please get them out of the cellar, the dungeon,or the grave before the last shovel of soil.

Alright, I'm not going to act as if I know a lot about the draftees. Truth be told, I only know about three or four of 'em thus I'm not going to be pretending as your Dick Vitale.

Blake Griffin is a given. I only saw him through the highlight videos on the web. It's up to the Clippers whether they'll use him against themselves by self-destructing or by benefiting from him. Clippers fans clap.

Ricky Rubio. The Spanish teenage phenom who is a vital part in his country's last Olympic run went to the Wolves. They say he has a Gretzky feel for the game of basketball. Does that mean he's going to be The Great One 2.0? Not until he perfects behind the basket, over the shotclock shot.

Brandon Jennings went to Europe skipping college ball and is seen by many as an attempt to hone his skills there preparing for the big league while simultaneously earning cash to pay for his translator. Now, he averaged just 4 points per game in Europe. Just saying.

And Tyler Hansbrough. Finishing his last season in North Carolina with a boatload of individual awards. He's among the list of college stars that aren't meant to be in the pros. He will be decent but please don't derive his future in the NBA from what he's been in college. He can't even be a shadow of Dwight.

The Indiana Pacers sure loves loyal frontmen amateurs who played the very last year of eligibility for their alma mater. From last year's Hibbert to Hansbrough.

Complete List of the 2009 NBA Draft

Eat their English

Soccer has never upped my interest to no more than the anatomy of a dodo. Though some moments really deserves to pull my attention away from my Sunday dish washing chores.

The very underrated Team USA was not supposed to win against the top rated squad in the planet. Is this some sort of a revenge dating back to 2002 when the Spaniards handed the once mighty Team USA basketball squad its second loss in the World Championships thus being the second team to do beat an all-pro American quintet in history?

Nah. That's just playing over the top.




The US made an unprecedented upset and American soccer's life goes on still thriving for the mainstream recognition. This game might be the tipping point or just a one hit wonder and then that's all folks. The important thing is that this match should not just be an upset but to be a start of a sustaining perennial contender status.

Speaking of upsets in the sport where kicking balls is fun, there has to be none close to a feat made by the 1966 North Korean team.

Yes, before Kim Jong Il went nuts over his missiles, they went berserk on the grass.
