im a GO-GETTER

so did u watch kims of comedy the other nite? tellin ya ish is funny.. made me chuckle. u go watch it, and u watch it now. do as ur told. play ur position!

what a loooooooooong week its been... maybe it was the snow, maybe it was work, i dunno.. but this week felt like one of the longest in recent memory. 3 day wknd tho.. booya! ish is ON like donkey kong.

stuey goin large in utah. chicks dig the long ball son. dont be swinging for the fences with warning track power. and he leaves u this.. http://www.bluenote.com/droppinscience/player/
samples of hot trizzacks.

i just blabbed zero coherence.

joba chamberlin will start the season in the bullpen. good decision. yanks would be stupid not to use him as the closer for the next 15 years. he's lights out in the 9th. they all look the same in the dark, dont they? what we talkin bout right now..

the Athletic Supporter doesnt know what it means to get "one" drink.

b-rad, jtj, johnny shots, john mclain, phil the bowl....... word.

my friend.. "diana".. was at AC a week ago playing baller no limit poker. sitting next to her was a white middle aged man in a purple jumpsuit with hat on.. and with a huge ring on his finger that can't be missed. supposedly hid the entire finger it was so big. anyways, "diana" is an attractive asian female that works for a highly reputatable "bank". the middle aged man starts making small talk with her and allegedly says something in the lines of.. "the guys that handle my bank account arent near as attractive as u." and being the friendly person she is... she reciprocates small talk and asks what he does for a living. he allegedly said.. "im a football coach for louisiana state university... u know, i could probably get u tix.. u should come watch." now it's starting to make sense to "diana".. the ring is so damn big bc its from winning the friggin bcs championship!! so the coach continues his alleged chit chat.. like, where u from, where u live, etc... and "have u ever dated a non oriental man?" being southern is an acceptable excuse, but isnt it 2008? who says oriental anymore? (people in my office do!) i guess its ok.. i mean arkansas is not pronounced our-kansas neither. http://youtube.com/watch?v=kBd3WOdVbBQ
i was pretty livid as to why "diana" did not accept his contact information. do u realize how much fun i couldve had with that. next time.. u get that info girl!!

did ja rule coin the phrase "holla"?

"u miss 100% of the shots u don't take".. paraphrasing stephon marbury. he's a go-getter.

so there was another crazy shooting.. this time in northern illinois. mad scientist dude opened fire on a geology class. that is some scary ish. is it bad that for last halloween i wanted to dress up as the vtech killer?

how the hell does devean george have enough pull in the league to have a no-trade clause in his contract? wtf has he done to deserve that?? i think he wears colored contacs.

this week, i not only had pinkberry for the first time in my uncultured life, i also had ruth's chris steak for the first time. cows booties be tastin yummo when done right!

Yo, yo first i snatched the street, then i snatched the charts/
First had they ear, now i have they're heart/
Rappers came and went/
I've been hear from the start/
Seen them put it together/
Watch them take it apart/
See the Rovers roll up wit ribbons/
I've seen them re-poed, re-sold and re-driven/
So when i reload, he holds #1 position/
When u hot i'm hot/
And when your feet cold, mines is sizzelin/
It's plain to see/
Ngga's can't f wit me/
Cuz ima be that ngga fo life/
This is not an image/
This is God given/
This is hard liven/
Mixed wit crystal sippin/
It's the most consistent/
Hov
Give you the most hits you can fit inside a whole disc and/
Nigga I'm home on these charts, y'all niggaz visitin/
It's Hov tradition, Jeff Gordan of rap/
I'm back to claim pole position, holla at ya boy/....

so how do YOU look busy at work.. bc we all have our tricks. u should share. what i do is.. always look like im in a rush to get somewhere with my papers in hand. i walk briskly and pretend to be reading the papers every once in a while w my eyebrows cringed.. sometimes muttering something under my breath to sound frustrated/important. its works. and all im doing usually is just taking a lap around the office to stretch my legs. i also like to ruffle a pile of papers at my desk and staple them. sometimes i'll shred paper for no good reason. im a go-getter.

Let you tell that man I'm falling/
Well somebody must've caught him/
Cause every fourth quarter, I like to Mike Jordan 'em/

the Athletic Supporter believes everything in ur life happens for a reason.. and so should u!

happy friday mofo's.. enjoy the holiday wknd! holla at me!

wheres my f'n internet!!

the Athletic Supporter apologizes for the monday blog. it was brief and not very entertaining, even tho i still wonder what type of answers people say to the question i asked. the combination of a long wknd of boozing and my internet acting up produced the unacceptable blog.

pretty soon, the Athletic Supporter will be writing more condensed blogs.. probably about 1-2 different topics instead of my usual ADHD multiple tangents. no i am not running out of material... i was just merely trying to introduce to u my style of writing during the past couple of weeks. kinda like a sample sale.

i finally watched the kanye grammy performance. if u missed it sunday like me, here u go: http://youtube.com/watch?v=7gHisR4xmOk&feature=related
'ye is a gangster.. even in his glow in the dark stunnas. daft punk is real too.

i am sure nhl player richard zednik is still feeling this from last weekend: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/hockey/nhl/02/11/bc.hkn.panthers.zednikc.ap/index.html
sportscenter shows the reply so often its almost like they are celebrating it. the skate definitely left a mark.

kanye's tribute to his moms is pretty moving. a guest came into the office recently and told us about a car accident he drove by and how one guy died... i mean, the dude who died wasnt like.. hey, i think i'll get into my car and fatally crash into a truck today. its kinda crazy to think about how u just never know when ur gonna go.. and how little u really appreciate life. and i'll never ever understand why anyone would commit suicide. ish CAN'T be THAT bad.. could it? there's so much to do and so much to see.. why cut life short?
i guess its tough to appreciate things on an everyday basis bc of work, activities, school, etc.. hard to put everything in perspective daily when its so easy to get caught up. but know it can all be gone..without any warning. my ramble is not to bring u down by any sense.. more so for ya'll to be thankful for ur surroundings and everything u DO have.

whats worse: being unappreciative as stated above or not being able to move forward from certain things?

anyways... i had pink berry for the first time yesterday. i can't believe how big that sht is blowin up.. with their own amex commercials and all, more spots poppin up. maybe it was the hype.. and yes it is a tasty treat, but i dont think i'll ever be going out of my way for it. i actually like tasti d lite more.. but thats prolly cuz im a simpleton, and ghetto fab.

my buddy asks me what i would do without basketball. honestly, i dont know. if it werent for hoops and other non 9-5 activities, i'd waste my time thinking about too much stupid crap. i find it odd also that everytime im about to play hoops, my mom calls me.. and everytime she calls.. shes like, is that all u do.. arent u too old to keep playing.. dont' get hurt. then i get all worked up... yes im playin ball, whats the problem???
maybe im just sensitive about hoops bc of the way im playing these days. embarassing.

valentines day is this week.. im not that type of guy. and presidents day is this week. no work monday! yes, i am indeed that type of guy. woot woot!

check out my gf.. about 3 mins in.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=308EEf7gTu4
she's so lovely.

del fresco's at 49th and 6th ave - ground floor at mcgraw hill building. faaaaa sheeeezle. cream spinach and crab cakes. do it.

is anyone else tired of media coverage on clemens, pettitte, and the entire steroid scandal?
thank gawd john rocker got involved to make things interesting.

pitchers and catchers this week. i follow the yanks, and the mets only bc its tough to miss mets news being in this area. i am not a big fan of baseball overall tho. just wanted to remind those who actually care. and i was a fan of the yanks before '96.. im no fairweather fan. i know all bout the tough days with alvaro espinoza, steve balboni, wayne tolleson, bobby meacham, oscar azocar, andy hawkins, tim leary, henry cotto, dan pasqua, joel skinner.. should i keep going?

my supervisor shut off access to many websites. it seems as if a list of my cookies and caches were taken and just blocked off. i guess the company thinks if they take away the internet, then i'll do more work and be more efficient? they couldnt be more wrong. first of all, i do enough friggin work. the internet keeps me balanced... keeps me sane throughout the day. wtf am i supposed to do without gchat.. monday felt like the longest day ever w/o it.
my phone does have limited windows capability so what i do now is check my email and other sites on it. i hope the company knows the idea to take away internet is completely counterproductive. instead of checking my sites on company internet for spurts of 30secs at a time.. i now spend at least double/triple that time waiting for pages to download on my phone. yaaay for getting less done at work than before!

i once passed a girl this note, as seen on tv:
do u like me?
__ yes
__ no
__ maybe
and i wasnt in middle school when i did this, it was last year.. on a bar napkin. and i was semi serious. haha i said semi.

2 aleve is supposedly the strength of 1 vicodin. that can't be true.

that groundhog was full of sht huh.

if ur snowed in tnite.. youtube kims of comedy. i found it funny. grape.. glove.. hahaha

later ya'll.. have a great day.

some questions have no right answer. just like when i got back to work a few weeks back after visiting the bay area, my boss asked me if i did any drugs out there. what am i supposed to say to that? he looks like the type to be doing drugs and doesnt seem like he would care if i did either. i actually didnt do any drugs that wknd but it seemed like he wanted me to say.. "yea dude, i got cracked out all wknd." i told him no i didnt, and he seemed disappointed.
and what do u tell a girl when she asks u how many partners u've had? that's another trick question w no right answer. if u say too little.. then u look like a herb/loser that can't get on chicks. i mean, what girl wants to hook up with u if u dont know ur way around right? im sure chicks want to get down with a dude thats been w enough women to assumably at least somewhat pleasure her. but if u say too much.. then u look like a manwhore that needs to be deloused. she may get reservations of knockin boots with a dude that has had too many partners. so what is the happy medium? i guess there is no perfect answer... so dont say anything at all?

missed kanye and alicia keys performances last nite. damn youtube better not be shut off at work. its fn brick out biiiatches!
