You know who's awesome?


This guy.

This dude is the shit. He hoops in college. For Siena, who has a habit of ruining my brackets every spring. He also has an apostrophe AND a hyphen in his first name. That's setting the bar pretty high.

His whole life has been a fucking struggle. He was one of seven children, and had to move across country to move in with one of his siblings after shit went bad. But he didn't let that shit get him down. He worked his way into community college, where he hooped for a year. The first part of his life story starts out like too many others, which all too often turn to crime, drugs, drug crime, or some other destructive force. Not my man here.

He's better than that.

After his first year in community college, he decided to serve for four years in the military, doing a tour while stationed in Iraq. That's right. As if he hadn't fought for enough in his life, now he's going to go fight YOUR battles also.

He got back from the suck, went back to community college, and finally moved up to Siena. In addition to hooping, he's also active in the improv/comedy group at Siena. Dude does more in one day for his school than most do in an entire career.

Just-in'love wants to be a state trooper to help out with the border patrol in New York. Canadians don't have a clue what's coming to them. Just-in'love makes me hate so many people in America. Fat, lazy, Wal-Mart fucks, self-entitled frat boy fucks, myself, people that bitch about the welfare while supporting the war but don't go fight their damn selves, and thousands of others.

Step aside, bitches. Just-in'love Smith is here to save the fucking day. Keep kicking ass, big guy.

Monday Morning S--t Storm

You know what we haven't talked about around these parts? College Basketball.

The one thing I do appreciate about NCAABB is how crazy the gyms get. Sure, In the NBA you get the jazzy PA noise, but it's just not the same. The other great thing about NCAA ball is the shit talking from the fans. DUI, beat your girlfriend, failed some classes, you can be sure that every conference opponent in the country will rip your shit for it. In fact I tell people that's the best thing about college. You can say everything you want to at sporting events. All that shit in your head that you WANT to say during high school is completely acceptable at NCAA sanctioned events, especially in a small gymnasium. Definitely the best thing about college....other than the alcohol....and co-ed's.....but mainly the alcohol.

So with that being said, the shit storm is to provide some examples of crazy college basketball fanhood. We know about the Cameron Crazies, we know about Maryland fans being ruthless, and we know that Kentucky and Indiana are getting payback for football season. What I want are the little gems around the country. I want that young, wide eyed sophomore in a tiny gym telling the opposing team's star player that he sucks more dick than Adam Lambert.

So to kick things off I give you this little gem.


Now I'll admit I didn't know a lot about NCA&T before this, but I am now officially a fan. Does that make me a bandwagon fan, perhaps, but I really want to see a game in the Dawg Pound. First of all I love split level gyms like this. Also note how the fans are literally right on top of the players. We also have ridicule of opposing players, step battles, and multiple security elements.

But what is the intro like? I'm glad you asked.


Shit storm begin.
