Random. Emphasis on dumb.

Dear Live 06 Ben Wallace, thank you for being the greatest virtual athlete since Mike Tyson in Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out.

I concede. Pretty much everyone other than Johnny and me thinks it’s “Bebop and Rocksteady” rather than “Rocksteady and Bebop.” I was possibly a dumb kid saying really important things the wrong way. And this really is an important issue at any stage of life.

Here’s my dream from a few days ago. I’ve shared it with a few people. I was walking with Junior, Jon, and Jerry somewhere in Seattle. It was late at night so not too many people were out. We were walking across a street and at the beginning of the crosswalk was Jay-Z with Beyonce. For whatever reason, we didn’t get too excited. In reality, the four of us would’ve been feelin’ the vibe and throwing the diamonds to the sky like our lives depended on it. Apparently we wanted to leave him alone because he probably never has alone time. Jay-Z started picking up his pace to catch up to us and asked, “What’s up fellas?” I replied for the group and, prior to daps all around, this is what came out of my mouth

Oh, we’re going crazy cause we dope boys. And all the dope boys go crazy when they hear that boy Jay-Z!

I love dreams.
