After retrieving (or should I say rescuing) my Andre Rison Falcons jersey from the archives a few weeks back (and having others share their gems), that nostalgic late 80s/early 90s vibe hath returned. Sports jerseys were fashion statements back then. This is true. It wasn't just me. And, yes, they were cool -- then. Believe it. Sure, some of our sports fashion apparel and accessories may seem the domain of complete tools now but how sick were all of us back in the day?C'mon, you were there. Back in middle school or junior high. Chances are you played sports and hung with the "popular crowd." You dug the girls of 90210 and couldn't get enough of Damon Wayans as Homey the Clown. Will Smith was reigning as the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Bo Jackson and MJ were on your walls and you couldn't get enough Headbanger's Ball. OK, you maybe not all of those things applied to you. But, if a lot of them did, I wouldn't be surprised if sports was your whole life an...

Boom Goes the Dynamite Takes the National Stage
I'm sure most of you have seen the video of Brian Collins stumbling
over the sports news. If you haven't seen it, here's where the magic
started. The peak of this video's sweetness comes about 2:25 in.[Vid]After creating an Internet storm, the fumbling announcer and his "boom
goes the dynamite" catchphrase got a reference from Will Smith last

The Rumor Mill is Still Spinning
(Boulder-CO) The latest and greatest rumor out of the Nuggets rumor mill says Denver has had talks with the Los Angeles Clippers about Sam Cassell-which should be no suprise to anyone seeing as Coach George Karl and Sam Cassell have been forlorn without each other since splitting back when the two we...

 It took Sam Cassell more than a month but he finally looks comfortable in a Celtics uniform. It's not often a 10 point, 4 rebound, 4 assist performance draws such rave reviews. But what we saw last night against the Bucks is exactly what Danny Ainge and Doc Rivers want to see from Sam in [...]
Portland
YB!!! What's good everyone? I hope you guys all had great weekends! My weekend was a busy on as I was in Park City Utah doing an event for STX. There was a HUGE youth tournament, so I hung out at the STX tent, met some kids, signed some posters, gave some stuff away, and got to relax a bit. Strangely enough, I had never been to Park City before and I liked it a lot! Definitely...

With the signing of Sam Cassell, the Celtics no longer need to keep Gabe Pruitt in Boston as an insurance policy and have re-assigned him to their D-League affiliate, the Utah Flash.
Pruitt has size for a point guard and in his few brief stints with the Celtics this season, he showed some good things. I like the move to send him back to the D-League where he will at least get...

Starbury To The Celtics? Say It Ain't So
According to Marc Stein and ESPN, "signals are getting stronger that the New York Knicks' outcast will eventually make his comeback with the Boston Celtics." Egads man! I understand there are concerns about depth after losing James Posey and P.J. Brown. I understand losing three out of four on the road hurts. I understand Sam Cassell will never play meaningful...
Another Whiney Laker
Can something get annoying to hear/read, but at the same time be humorous? Well, this "blaming of the officials" that is coming out of Lakers' camp is doing just that. From The Sporting News:
Los Angeles Lakers guard Sasha Vujacic let the Boston Celtics get to him in Game 5, and he says that's because they play too rough, the Los Angeles Times reports.

Great move by the Saints front office by identifying future [...]

A big, shapeless Hypercolor t-shirt (whoever made sweat stains fashionable was a marketing genius!)
Spandex biker shorts (with a colored stripe down the side to make them extra sassy)
And finally, big scrunchy jazzercise-ish socks (sometimes layered in different colors to match my outfit) paired with white Keds!
Yes, I used to leave the house happy (and proud) to be dressed like this. I'm just thankful I didn't like to have my picture taken!
