WE ALL should never complain again, jackie robinson didnt

the past 3 weeks have been a very rough stretch for the Athletic Supporter and i am glad its finally gonna slow down... well, hoping it slows down. i get the feeling some friends wont let it tho. i mean, it's mos def been fun. we'll see what haps. but for future reference, if there are irregular posts, it just means the Athletic Supporter has been continuing the rough stretch herre and thurr. the Athletic Knee has even started calling me the asian charlie sheen. thats just plain inaccurate.

no skipping down.. read me in full, but make sure u watch the last link in this post. u'll understand the title for today's post too.

gary busey is a scarry dude. the fear in jennifer garner's face is absolutely priceless.. along with her answer to ryan seacrest's question right after the busey fiasco.

am i the only one completely oblivious to this past year's movies? havent seen 'there will be blood', 'no country for old men', yadda yadda yadda. where the hell have i been. i did watch oldboy about 5x tho. ish is shifty.

actually i am not alone with being out of the loop with movies this past year. the oscars on sunday were the lowest rated ever and polls suggest less knowledge about movies by the general public. yes!... i knew i was average!

the dirty thirty club is great. the election for president of this club is far more fun than the real one. i dont have what it takes to run for dirty thirty prez. if u feel like u should be a candidate, speak up now. the election is bout to kick off. i'll settle for a seat on the house.

michael beasley is going to impressively SHATTER the freshman record for double-doubles this year previously held by.... carmelo anthony, who also happens to be the 2nd most lethal scorer in the L.

people are racialists.. and they dont even know it. just like how dave chappelle says he walks into a restaurant and the waiter assumes chappelle is going to have the chicken. ive been changing up my lunch routine to subways instead of quiznos lately (yea, im f'n craaazy).. and before i can even utter "can i get a..", the same middle eastern lady who makes my daily sandwich for me without a doubt says.. "chicken teriyaki right?"
dude, i've never ordered chicken teriyaki before.. ever!. im ready to start laying it on her, like.. yea, chicken teriyaki btch.. why dont u go plan another jihad u damn kite runner.

tennessee/memphis was an espn instant classic. very impressive win for tennessee. its never easy playing a team on the road, let alone for a prime time tv slot.. and especially when that home team youre about to play is undefeated. ron slay and isiah victor are smiling somewhere.. probably about the win, but more likely about erin andrews sideline reporting.
the tag of #1 team in the country is overrated. any team in the top 5 can arguably claim that position. and how do u really name a #1? playoffs/tournaments don't necessarily justify who the best team in the country is.. in hoops, in football, whatever. playoffs/tournaments decide the team who is hottest at the time.. and not who has been the best team all season. is the team that has been best all season the #1? who knows. its an imperfect system. i hate sports.

dave n busters in times square is......... urban. their beer mugs are huge tho. double irish car bombs are dangerous. take my advice and like a fat boy on a diet, dont try it.

the movie sliding doors is an interesting concept. if u saw the movie, u know what im talkin bout.. and if u havent seen it, u should watch it sometime. its a cool flick. pretty much.. its a movie about "what if".. everyday moments and choices produce different outcomes that can potentially affect your life in serious ways. we'll never truly know what the flip side couldve been like either. kinda creepy if u think about it.
what if u made it onto that train or bus, what if u went out with that girl or dude, or what if u didnt miss that call, what if i took that other job, what if i didnt eat that extra slice of pizza, what if we made that right onto avenue a instead of going left to fc haha.
no seriously tho.. it is kinda creepy.

dmac ran a 4.33 at the nfl combine. ray rice says he's trying to run a 3.50.. what a joker. more realistically.. ray should try to crack 4.55 and get drafted before the second day. leonard stayed 4 years, u shouldve too!

kelvin sampson. injustice for trying to do the best job he could. if u aint cheatin, u aint tryin... thats the bottom line. go ahead and ask clemens, pettitte, all of baseball.. that is, before they start misremembering. misremembering?? that is a great word.

conversation between two young professional friends who work for highly reputable companies after a few drinks at a local bar -
white dude, as he c-walks back to his stool: "bartender, play shook ones again"
asian dude, as he nurses his pint of blue moon: "yo, turn off the gangster switch"
white dude: "NO, gangster stays ON!"
had to be thurr..

tiger woods is a gangster. he has restructured his swing twice in his professional career.. and has done so verrrry successfully. do u realize how tough it is to just switch up what u been doing for yearsss? shaq has tried to restructure his ft shot like a hundo times... and has done so verrrry UNsuccessfully. tiger is an athlete. golfers are athletes. dont get it twisted.

"Nowadays rap artists coming halfhearted/
Commercial like pop, or underground like black markets/
Where were you when hiphop died?/
Is it too early to mourn? Is it too late to ride?"

lets give the phoenix suns a few more games before we start hatin. 7 game series are a helluva lot different than regular season games that dudes play after being at the groupie lounge all nite before.

piercing and tattoo shop talk between male tattoo'er and female tattoo'ee. she happens to be getting a tramp stamp inked on her lower back. she also happens to look pretty young.. like barely legal, so i was kinda laughing but not really about the following:
female tattoo receiver: "owww, stop for minute it hurts a lot"
male tattoo giver: "yea i'll give u something else that feels good but hurts too"
female tattoo receiver: "i doubt that will hurt, i can handle mine.."
aspiring hoooker i guess.

the steph link is comical. this next link is definitely worth a watch. there's no comedy involved.. its just really good stuff. cmu lecture by randy pausch narrated to fit into oprah. its a few minutes long but u'll be better off having seen it. guaranteed.
