Beach Bound & Team #CAG - We Are The Champions!

January 17th, 2012

cagtebowlowres1

I can’t even think back to how many seasons that Mickee Zenarosa and I have been playing together in basketball leagues. We started off in the Asian Basketball Association (ABA) but switched to the Anaheim Men’s League. I wrote a couple blog posts about them a few years back on 3rd String and when we changed the team name to Beach Bound, but I really lost track because every season seems to roll into the next without a break.  I can tell you this much, though, we needed to win a championship badly. Last season we started off really horribly because we lost some key players because or work, babies, or whatever real world things there are out there. The few seasons before that, we would lose in the Finals or compete for 3rd place in the playoffs. It sucked because we weren’t good enough to win the championship, but not bad enough to stay in the lower divisions so they kept bumping us up until we finally reached Division 1.

2011-2012 NBA Season Is Official!

December 2nd, 2011

nba

It’s official finally after the months of lockout and pissing matches between the NBA owners and players. The 2011-2012 season is going to start. Just got an e-mail from our Clippers people that was sent to them by David Stern. I’m sure he’s relieved otherwise how would he make his $20 million a year salary. What would he even do with all of that money? Anyone who knows me can guess my answer: hookers and blow. See you at the Clippers games, bitches.

LAUNFD “For The City” Charity Basketball Game

November 29th, 2011

launfd

On the short list of things that interest me in this world, basketball and charity are on it so when Majelane Bautista posted the link to this “For the City” game put on by Baron Davis, Craig Smith, and the LAUNFD I had to go. It was held at the Los Angeles Southwest College on November 27, 2011 and general admission tickets were only $25 while the proceeds went to charity. However, the $2 something per ticket service charge and $5 parking did not. When this charity game was first announced, the NBA was still in lockout mode so everyone around me was craving some type of basketball that wasn’t my normal Sunday league games in Anaheim. Originally the lineup was supposed to be sick: Baron Davis, Trevor Ariza, DeMar DeRozan, Nick Young, Craig Smith, Chase Budinger, Dorell Wright, Jason Collins, Jarron Collins, Darren Collison, Amir Johnson, Arron Afflalo, Paul Pierce, James Harden and Russell Westbrook. But a lot of guys ended up flaking either because the lockout ended the day before or they just got lazy. Final starters were: Craig Smith, Ryan Hollins, Baron Davis, Trevor Ariza, DeMar DeRozan, Dorell Wright, Matt Barnes, Amir Johnson, James Harden, and Jordan Hamilton. Read the rest of this entry »

Craig “Rhino” Smith Video Highlights

November 28th, 2011

rhinomj

On November, 27 2011 there was a charity basketball game put on by a bunch of NBA players and the LAUNFD. Not really going to get into it with this post since I’m going to write a full one with the complete video once it’s done rendering and I hog up the bandwidth uploading it to YouTube. While I’m waiting for that madness, I figured that I could slap together this small highlight video of Craig “Rhino” Smith from the LA Clippers. Normally professional athletes are stuck up, but Rhino has been cool every time I met him and he answers everyone on Twitter when they write to him. Dude is massive too, as you can see in this pic of him next to super stalker Majelane Bautista. Anyhow, enough nonsense. While other players were doing whatever in the off season/lockout you can see that Rhino has been working on his game. He scored the opening basket on a floater, dishes out a dime for a 3 pointer, hits a 3 pointer himself, and crosses his defender over then takes it strong to the rack. Be prepared for the Rhino Plow.

Chris And Sandra Slack’s Wedding

September 19th, 2011

slacks

On Saturday September 19, 2011 our good friends Christopher Slack & Sandra Martinez got married at Skylinks Golf Course in Long Beach, California. They asked me to make a video for them so I tried my best considering that this was the first wedding that I’ve ever shot (and probably the last). I know Will Roegge will give me a hard time for all these transitions, but damn it’s hard to make a wedding video look clean LOL. Anyhow, check it out and leave a nice message for Mr and Mrs Slack if you could please. Remember, this was my first time so cut me some…slack. Hahah. OK. Bad joke.

The Psychotic Kitty

September 9th, 2011

ccatpicture1

To be 1000000% honest, I don’t even remember who introduced me to this chick. I just know that she used to hit me up on AIM and I’ve gotten to the point where I stopped asking people who they are or how I know them because apparently that’s offensive. I hope the person who introduced me doesn’t get mad that I put this up. If so, sorry. She can’t comprehend that my short answers equate to not being interested in the conversation at all. I’m glad I did though because it ends up pretty funny. Maybe that’s why I don’t like kittens very much. LOL  Read the rest of this entry »

Lithium Anyone?

September 8th, 2011

bitches-be-crazy

I seriously meet the craziest people that lead me to tell the most absurd stories to the point where people think that I make them up. The thing with me is that I typically don’t exaggerate unless I make it totally obvious that I’m doing it. For the longest time, I’ve been wanted to post of these crazy conversations and messages people send to me but have held off out of the shred of respect I had for them. Then I thought, what the hell do I care? LOL. I was cleaning out my e-mail boxes and found a bunch of funny stuff in there so now I’m just going to post them up for the hell of it. Enjoy!

Gimme My Damn iPhone Back!

August 30th, 2011

iphone-4-top-new-1If you have been in any type of contact with me within the past few days (hanging out, texting, Tweeting, talking, FaceBooking), you’ll know that some lowlife punk ass bitch kid stole my iPhone while a group of friends and I were playing basketball at Mae Boyar Park in Lakewood. People in this world are really sheisty. Some think that I have all this money to be throwing around buying new stuff all the time but I really don’t.  I work hard to make money so I can buy the things within my means and take care of them as much as humanly possible. And even then, I am pretty Cheap Chinese when it comes to shopping. I always use coupons or wait for sales. So how is some sleazy mother fucker going to gank my prize iPhone 4? The day seemed wack anyway since it was probably 100 degrees when I woke up at 7am then everyone except Tony Ek and Rey Magellan (TheNoLookPass.com) either showed up late or just didn’t come.

Stop With The Yellow Fever

July 21st, 2011

This whole “yellow fever” thing is kind of getting out of hand. For those of you who don’t know what yellow fever is, it’s when a non-Asian person has a huge fetish with Asians. Like the name, it’s actually a disease. Keep in mind, that girls with yellow fever are awesome and only guys with it are the wack ones. This has been bothering me for years, but today Peter Kim from TheNoLookPass just put up a Yelp! link where western guys go on some speed dating thing with Asian girls. You’ve got to be kidding me. A whole speed dating night just so perverts can prey on Asian girls? Where’s Chris Hansen when you need him? Oh yeah, filing for a divorce. Why is it that western men, mainly white, are so into Asian girls? I mean, I can see dating a girl that you like and she just happens to be Asian. But I’m talking about the guys who set out to get Asian girls and obsess about them. What’s the deal? Because Asian girls are supposed to be submissive and serve you like an emperor while walking around in a kimono? Sorry, but have you hung out with Asian girls who grew up in America? Good luck with any of that nonsense LOL. They’re meaner and bossier than any white girl you’ll ever meet. Plus they want LV this or Gucci that so your white man credit card better have a high limit.
