Retired Basketball Relationships

VH1 may have just taken the cake as the smartest reality TV show provider around.  From the channel that has brought you [fill in the blank] Rehab with Dr. Drew, Hogan Knows Best, Breaking Bonaduce, The Pick-up Artist, Flavor of Love, Rock of Love, I Love Money, Megan Wants a Millionaire, Tool Academy, the list goes on; comes yet another ground breaking show, Basketball Wives.  Judging by the fact that there is no Wikipedia entry for this show, I feel that America is not watching this masterpiece unfold.  Take a look at what you are missing…

Premiering almost five weeks ago, the show is somewhat of a brain child of Shaunie O’Neal, an executive producer and ex-wife of Shaquille O’Neal.  The magnitude of what this show has done for me is a bit overwhelming:

Cast Lineup:

Taking a play from my previous basketball post on an all-white basketball league, let’s take a look at how the woman of the show represent a starting lineup and sixth man.  The height and crazy to this lineup is off the charts:

Matt Barnes – SF Gloria Govan – Fiancee

Eric Williams – PF Jennifer Williams – Wife

Antoine Walker – PF Evelyn Lozada – Ex Wife

Dwight Howard – C Royce Reed – Baby Mama

Shaquille O’Neal – C Shaunie O’Neal – Ex Wife

Michael Olowokondi – C Suzie Ketcham – Ex Girlfriend

Giving some more background to this couples, Matt Barnes and Gloria Govan are the only people that appear to have heads on their shoulders. They clearly had no idea what this show was getting themselves into, and it seems landing on his seventh team in a city near the rest of these girls was just bad luck.

So far in the episodes Eric and Jennifer Williams are still married; and with Barnes, Eric is the only other actual basketball player getting air time; but because of his past cheating I don’t expect Eric to be stealing scenes much longer.

Evelyn Lozada spends much of her camera time explaining how she is not a gold digger and is moving on after separating from Antoine Walker (who has made over $100 million but is now bankrupt and playing in Puerto Rico and paying her thousands a month in child support).

BREAKING NEWS: The shimmy shake is trying to make a comeback!

Royce Reed is only named on the show as an past Heat and Magic dancer.  You won’t hear her mention Dwight Howard’s name, she legally can’t as she is banned from “using or publishing (orally, in writing, or otherwise), directly, indirectly or by innuendo, [Dwight's] name, nicknames, image, brand photographs, and/or likeness.

Shaunie O’Neal, who calls herself the ‘Queen Bee’ of the girls, was served this letter after the first episode; she hasn’t been a major character since that episode.  To add to the drama, Shaq is allegedly putting his dick in Gloria’s sister.

After landing the number one overall bust Michael Olowokondi, Suzie Ketcham is fittingly the bust of this group as well.  This pair has two kids together, I want photographic proof to see how close to an alien these creatures are.

Episodes:

1.  Meeting the girls and Royce drama at a Super Bowl party (see video below).

2.  Evelyn throws herself a 34th birthday party with what is left of Antoine Walker’s money.  Episode introduces the one and only Eric Williams.

3.  Evelyn and Jen get disgusted by the city of Orlando.  Groupie conflict begins.

4.  Eric Williams steals the episode, housing hunting with Jen.  Listen up VH1, you need to start a spin-off show, house shopping with athletes and their wives who are about to get divorced.  Also, fancy restaurant fighting.  Posting this episode while it is still available online…

5. Make sure to watch this Sunday at 10:00pm.  The show is filmed in Miami, so remember there is a 40% chance you will see a Bangbros casting taking place in the background.

Drama:

Either I have very bad skills at finding videos on youtube, or VH1 is very protective of their content.  I can’t find any good clips from the show, this is all I can leave you with:

And I couldn’t end this post without showing that, since the start of the show, Evelyn Lozada had some self portraits make their way online:

Who is More Patriotic

Unless you are some kind of liberal fag, you probably came across this news story today:

American Patriots Daniel Galli, Austin Carvalho, Matt Dariano, Dominic Maciel and Clayton Howard were sent home from school on Cinco de Mayo for wearing American flag shirts and bandannas.  The students were told “they must turn their T-shirts inside-out or be sent home.”

If you have a problem with this please feel free to call the school at (408) 201-6100, or email Principal Nick Boden at Nick.Boden@mhu.k12.ca.us

And while your heart is being filled with anti-Mexican rage, and likely still hung over from Drinko de Mayo; it is time to answer the most important question this story raises:

What shirt do you find the most Patriotic?

I Was Fired For Using N-Word

This news story caused my mother to use her cellphone to txt me “u must get the paper today.”  I think this is only the second or third time she has figured out how to do this on a phone, so I knew it had to be somewhat important.  After talking with her, she made me buy copies of the local Waltham newspaper, which had this as the main, above the fold headline: “Principal: I was fired for n-word

To give more background, this guy Peter Silverman used to be the principle at my old elementary school (long after I attended), where my mother currently works.  She never liked him and would say he had asperger’s syndrome.  He left that job after allegedly having an affair with a teacher (who’s husband worked at the same school, and whom she had four kids with, they are now divorced).  Eventually he became principal at Waltham’s Plympton Elementary School.  On February 9th this year he “mysteriously stopped working as principal.”

The article is pretty entertaining, Silverman claims he was fired after quoting the John Lennon song “Woman is the Nigger of the World” to show his support for two teachers.  These are quotes by Silverman that made it into the article:

I think it would have been better if I hadn’t said it. I used the wrong analogy – I use analogies all the time, with kids and adults. It’s the only way I’ve ever used the word ‘nigger.’

Some people said it would have been fine if I had said, ‘low man on the totem pole’ – yet to Native Americans, that would have been offensive. It’s part of our colloquial speak.

So to make sure you understand this along with me, Silverman states he only uses the n-word in analogies, which he uses all the time, including with kids.  And offensive words (apparently the n-word) are apart of our colloquial speak.  He also repeated the word ‘nigger’ in the interview, and took a shot at Native Americans for no reason.   Well done sir, I think this makes you a Corporate Thuggin’ Honorary Member.

If there was one thing I could always say about Silverman, it is that he is photogenic:

I got some pretty hilarious motivational posters in an email today that I’ve never seen before — here is part 1 in a multipart series.

White Done Right

For those of you who may have missed it last week, a new professional basketball league has been proposed that would be labeled as “It’s all white, U.S. citizens [who were born] white.”  Don ‘Moose’ Lewis, an Atlanta boxing and wrestling promoter said this All-American Basketball Alliance will start in several southern cities in June.  Lewis makes the point that this is not racist, with his comment: “How are the Soul Train awards not racist? It’s not racist it’s just a niche, its entertainment.”

Personally, I think the way Lewis is going at it (middle, white America), will just turn into a league filled with white guys who think they can play, like this:

If you are going to start this league you have to do it right and this is how:

1.  White guys in the U.S. are not at the level to were they can fill a league yet, we need to mix in an International conference.

2.  Don’t limit locations to just the South, by using current NBA markets you can tap into their niche fans.

3. Because no one will think these teams can be any good you need to have them end a season with a playoff to find a league champion, with the winner playing two exhibition games.  The first being against black guys who act white (team Urkels) and finally black guys who put fear in the eye of white people (team Black Power).

With these three rules you can organize the league, draft current NBA players, and create the following teams:

Odd video featuring Miley Cyrus and Joaquin Phoenix (and later Liv Tyler) trying to raise money so people can write stuff on their own arms.  Makes perfect sense to me, as well as a need to vote in order to raise the money.  It is nice to see Miley explain a computer to Joaquin, who seems afraid of human interaction talking to the guy in the beginning of the video.  Also, I can’t wait until Miley starts using stimulant drugs so she can have a little pep in her step and talk faster.  At one point in the video is also seems that Joaquin is looking for Miley to give him a lap dance.  Liv Tyler joins the mix, as Joaquin tries to explain his internet lessons to her.  Liv finds the internet amazing, amazing.

The last time I remember seeing Joaquin he looked like this:

watch #bms or you’re gay, right @thadcastle

If you have not watched an episode of Blue Mountain State (BMS) all you need to get hooked is the opening credits:

To sum it up: Boobs, Alcohol, Sports, College, Blowjobs.

Thank God people, or Chris Romano, have finally realized that if you make a show about drinking, sports, and shit talking and put it on after 10pm (swearing) it will be a perfect storm (see The League).

Premiering last Tuesday on Spike (yes, the same channel that has given us MANswers), BMS combines all the great  parts of college life, at a school that is centered around a scandal filled sports team.

Episodes so far:

1. It’s Call Hazing, Look It Up

2. Craig Loses His Promise Ring In A Stripper

3. Tonight: Is That A Pocket Pussy

The star character of the show is half frat guy / half jock retard Thad Castle.  In the first party scene Thad is shown, improving a part from Beerfest, snorting a line of a girls stomach, taking a bong hit, drinking beer out of a syringe, taking a pill off another girls tongue, then exhales.  If only smoke came out of his mouth (pussy couldn’t handle the real shit).  Another great Thad scene is him tackling a player, then standing over him yelling “9/11, 9/11… never forget.”

How to Survive College – Part 10

Find ways to meet people on campus, but online:

Really Northeastern, a campus in Second Life.  I don’t know who Seth Merriam is, but if you do, punch him in the face for me.

UPDATE:  Seth Merriam graduated Northeastern 14 years ago and is still doing an on-campus co-op.  Look carefully, that is a part-time job.  This is a How to Survive College bonus lesson: don’t get an art degree.
