Finally, two versions of the Lebron's version of Watergate have been released. One version is from the opposite end of the court and is so blurry that you can't even tell who is who so I didn't bother posting it. This other video on the other hand is taken from b ehind the basket where Jordan Crawford started this whole mess. Here is the link...you be the judge of how bad it was...
Is that really so embarrassing? Honestly was this dunk (or any dunk for that matter) worth hiding the tape from everyone for weeks? It looks like Jordan Crawford came off a screen, saw an open lane and attacked...Lebron who was playing help defense jumped and Crawford dunked it. Big deal. This was what Lebron was hiding? Hilarious and anti-climactic. Easily the best part of the footage is the jolly guy chuckling in the background after the play.
On a separate note, Lamar Odom's contract negotiations are turning into a joke. Apparently the Miami Heat are willing to offer Odom a 5 year contract, but since his heart is in Los Angeles (and who can blame him) he is waiting to see if he can squeeze a more desireable offer out of the Lakers. He also pissed off LA's second oldest playboy (behind Hugh Hefner), Dr. Jerry Buss, in the process by negotiating with Pat Riley and the Heat before the Lakers. Buss is sulking like a teenage girl and is playing hard to get, but eventually it seems like Odom will be back with the Lakers. In preparation for that announcement, I have found easily the greatest t-shirt 20 dollars can buy...
We all learned of Lamar Odom's affinity for sweets during the Laker playoff run. Apparently Lamar Odom has hired a personal assistant to go the grocery store and buy his candy in bulk for him (his assistant spends $77.74 on candy at the market in the video below), and Odom distributes this candy to his teammates on the bus and before practice.
Aside from the obvious concern that Lamar may develop diabetes in the near future, I am equally worried that the gummy candy he distributes on trips, during meetings, etc... may be getting stuck in Pau Gasol's braces.
Regardless, the minute the candyman resigns with the Lakers I will be buying this t-shirt and I urge you to do the same.
And finally, today one of the the Taco Bell chihuahuas, Gidget, who first enticed us to buy chicken chalupas and gorditas in 1997, died of a stroke today at the age of 15. Though Gidget was one of a few dogs used in these unforgettable ads, her trainer Sue Chipperton always knew there was something special about this Mexican dog. "Gidget always knew where the camera was," Chipperton told People Magazine. Many of you know I can't go a week without eating at Taco Bell, so this one hits me pretty hard. RIP...
Much like Odom's love of candy, the story has been broken that Jeff "Give Me Soda or Give Me Death" Foote shares the same affinity for soda and energy drinks, so much so that his doctor ordered he switch to Diet drinks or he will have diabetes in three years...one can only wonder will Jeff "No More T-shirt" Foote ever be the same?
ReplyDeleteJeff Foote and Odom do indeed suffer from a similar affliction, although I know Foote believes his quality of play suffers when he does not have energy drinks and soda right before games. Odom may have it worse than Foote because I know, or at least I hope, that Foote does not wake up in the middle of the night itching for a soda, chugs it, and falls back asleep instantly as Odom suggests he does with skittles and starburts.
ReplyDeleteBut if what your saying is true about Foote no longer wearing his trademark t-shirt, then we may have a much larger issue to concern ourselves with.
candy for brefix
ReplyDeleteThen I guess that makes Jeff Foote a bro
