The Official Greg Oden Nickname Contest
Found March 11, 2008 on Boomshakalaka:
PLAYERS: Greg Oden,  Greg Oden
TEAMS: Portland Trail Blazers

070331_oden16-vi
Whats up y'all. As time has gone on, one thing I have noticed about Greg is that he does not have a nickname. I know some of you are saying that we need to wait till he actually plays a game, but we are not going to. The Official Greg Oden Nickname Contest begins NOW! So here is what you win if we deem your nickname the winner. For local Oregon residents you will receive a pair of 300 level tickets to the game of your choice, and non residents will receive an Official BoomShakalaka shirt! All nicknames have to be submitted either on the The Official Greg Oden Nickname Contest post on BoomShakalaka.org, or under the post at the Yardbarker. All entries have to be in by the 20th of March 2008. Here is some inspiration for you all!

    We had a dark skinned teammate in high school that we called "Big Dookie" (also due to his braids) and a 6'10" white guy we called "Big Ugly." Maybe a combination of the two... "Big Ugly Dookie"...kinda condescending, but also devastating to say you got dunked on by Big Ugly Dookie.

    "[...]and Goden with the nice slam! Do you believe that guy! The crowd is going crazy; great slam by Greg Oden."

The ESPY Awards

July 21, 2008
Last night the ESPY awards aired, and i was in attendance. I have to shout out my boy David Shottenstein for hooking me up with my suit, and my boy Kenny for cutting my hair, so i was looking good. That red carpet was so hot that i was sweating all through my shirt, so i had to keep my jacket on the whole entire time. Other than that i had an outstanding time. I actually had a performance...

Rookie Photo Shoot

July 28, 2007
Today was the day that all the rookies in the NBA came together and took pictures and did interviews for the upcoming season. They said that we were going to be in New York City but we ended up in Old Greenwich, Connecticut. We are like 30 minutes from downtown Manhattan. We all came in a day early, well those of us that could have. When i got there, i saw mostly all the people from...

I just got back home from my first workout with the Memphis Grizzlies. I had a great time in Memphis especially since i got to see some of my family that lives there. On the way to the airport something crazy happend to me.

Last Saturday I had an event for Oregon Mentors called Greg Oden's Summer Slam, it was a fun event where lots of kids and their mentors came out and just had a fun day. It was open to the public so there was also booths where people can sign up to be mentors. I went to every booth and learned a little about all the mentoring programs that are around Portland, there are some really...

Mr. Oden Dunks - The Rehab Video

Via Boomshakalaka  |  March 14, 2008
Uh oh, the Man, the Myth, the Legend is back dunking. Just what we like to see him do. Here is the video everyone is talking about. Not a monstrous dunk, but still the dude is packing on an extra 25 on a rehabbed micro-fractured knee. We also heard the man is practicing as well. Good looking out, GO! Keep it going. Sorry to be hitting everyone with so much GO news, but right...

Just ran into Greg Oden and Josh McRoberts in Tualatin...

Via The Official LA Galaxy Myspace  |  June 30, 2007
First blog here. I'm an artist/musician and I originally posted this on my myspace blog. Got a fun Greg Oden experience to share, but I seriously doubt that any sports fans are looking at my myspace. With that, I'm psyched to be here and I hope to post more. Here's the repost: "Just ran into Greg Oden and Josh McRoberts in Tualatin and I kid you not, they were...

In the meantime, we have a contest taking place this week. Using our new list functionality, submit who you think will...

Do you know Greg Oden?

If you are a true fan of the next great BIG MAN in the NBA, then my Greg Oden test should be pretty an easy quiz.

Just About Ready To Shine

June 27, 2007
Hi again all Yard Barkers. I know it has been about 2 weeks since my last post, but my rehab program has been pretty crazy. Before I go on, I want to thank everyone who supported me on my last post. With your support, my workouts have been taken to a new level and I put more energy into my normal day-to-day stuff. I know things have been pretty exciting this week at yard barker with...

GREG ODEN DOESN'T HAVE A "REAL" MYSPACE ACCOUNT!!!

Via The Official LA Galaxy Myspace  |  July 10, 2007
This dude is just another obsessive fan that's misleading all of you! Greg doesn't have a real myspace account and that is a fact...it's pretty messed up that he's putting on a front acting like he's really him (even trying to pimp all these girls too lol and telling him he misses them and such...wow)...I must admit his page is better than the other fakes, but...

Ohio State's Greg Oden clearly committed an intentional foul with 10 second left in the game, but the officials lacked the guts to make the call which cost Xavier the game!

Mr.Oden = Mr.T

Via Boomshakalaka  |  February 23, 2008
Greg Oden is sporting his new bad ass look. He looks like BA Barackas. He looks tough as hell. Keep that look man, just add the three lines above the ear. Grow it out and it will be crazy. You just need some crazy chains, and maybe you could roll around with some crazy ass white dudes in a bad ass van. Maybe Joel, Serge, and Steve can fight crime with you. Serge could be Face, Steve...
