Random Thoughts Volume 2

KB #24 AND THE DADDY REMINDED ME OF WHY I MISS THE GOOD OL DAYS OF THE NBA. WHEN THEY WERE TOGETHER THEY WERE THE TALK OF THE SPORTS WORLD. NO ONE OR NOTHING ELSE MATTERED. TRY AS HE MAY A PIMP NAMED STERN IS RUINING MY LEAGUE BY THE DAY AND I AM SICK AND TIRED OF BEING SICK AND TIRED......

• Did anyone notice AI and the fact he cut his corn rolls? Has any star fallen as fast as the Answer? I don't even know what the fuck the question is anymore. What happen to the tattoos, the crossover, and the doo rags. He was anti establishment and he had more street love than any other player of this era. He was on the cover of SLAM magazine so much I thought he and Benzino owned that shit. Remember practice, we talking bout practice, not the game practice. He said he has grown up and matured and I applaud him. But when you make a living dropping 30 a night and being a virtual highlight reel day in and day out you can't simply turn into a team player and not get ignored. ESPN,the NBA,SLAM MAGAZINE and others pay you no attention now. MEMO TO KIDS OUT THERE: Unless your name is Steve Nash you get no love for being a team player and for being fundamentally sound, but dunk on somebody, cross somebody over, talk shit on the court, smoke that shit, smack a bitch, and act like a buffoon and Stuart Scott will give you a nickname and you will be famous. AI I stood up and applauded for you Sunday night and you will always be an all star in my book.
• Shaq dancing with the JABBA THE HUT dancers was the funniest thing I have ever seen. If the Daddy knows anything it's how to put on a show.
• The Slam Dunk contest was entertaining and now I hear Queen James wants to be in it. He should have did that shit three years ago. Can you imagine Vinsanity,KB24,Queen James,Dwade,Jason Richardson,Dwight Howard,Desmond Mason,and Nate Robinson in a dunk off. I blame a Pimp Name Stern for not making this shit happen and the players for being cowards. Fear of losing is the only reason why the star players don't want to participate. It's an exhibition not the Finals. Man up and give us what we want.
• The Daddy is the greatest used car salesman ever. He comes to a team loves his teammates, wins with them and when things start to get ruff he wants to leave. He then badmouths his former team to whoever will listen and blames them for not using him correctly.Then after a couple of years he wants to kiss and make up and act like he didn't say anything. He said all that shit with Kobe was a publicity stunt. Are you fucking kidding me? You asked him how your ass taste. I don't know bout you, but none of my so called best friends asked me how their ass taste. Daddy you are good because America has forgiven you, but I will never forget mutherfucker. You cost me rings and you and Kobe could have gone down as the best ever. You would still be winning rings now. Kobe is a better man than me, because I would have been called your lazy ass out. Fuck you Daddy and take those wack ass Jabba the Hutt dancers with you.
• Afraud your press conference was embarrasing to you, me, the fans and Major League Baseball. At this point just tell the truth. Who the fuck is this cousin of yours who got you some shit from cross the border that you shot in your ass? The media is going to tear your family tree apart until they find this mutherfucker who doesn't exist. You said it was not a steroid but it was designed to give you an energy boost. Then what the fuck is Red Bull for. Your telling me you injected sugar in your ass and I'm supposed to believe that shit.Just tell the truth no script involved and let it be. You sound as bad as Chris Brown who miraculously just discovered that there is a God and he needs to pray to him. Man up say you took that shit and you accept responsibility. Tell them they can test you everyday and that if you run out of urine you have some semen samples they can have. Apologize to everyone and then go collect your 270 million dollars. It is not the end of the world. You could always be Gary Coleman short, broke, and lonely.
• Jerry Jones said he doesn't know what to do about T.O.. What the fuck? Now I truly know it is about the money. You are weighing the financial ramifications of keeping T.O.instead of whether or not he improves your team. Do the right thing and think team first.
• Did you see the three point contest? Hey Stern next time can you think about using players that actually get in games next year so that we can at least pretend we care. No Ray Allen,no Dirk,no Joe Johnson, just mutherfuckers out there shooting and only their family members know who they are.
• Chris McAllister was cut by the Ravens and this comes as to no surprise to me. Chris that's what happens when you pimp slap Bmore's Golden Boy the Ganja Kid and think you can get away with it.
• As a kid we all grew up flying coach which is watching college basketball. You couldn't help but love it. It was all you knew. As time went on you got a taste of first class which is the NBA and you loved it. Now that your flying first class do you find it difficult like me to go back to coach. I can't watch college basketball now and I don't know a single player outside of Md. That is sad and I don't think I will ever follow the sport like I did when I was younger.
• Michael Vick has paid his debt to society and I think the NFL should welcome him back with open arms. I think his story could be great and there is a lot to be learned from his experience. If Pacman Jones could get all of these chances. Vick deserves at least one and I will be rooting for him regardless of his on field success.
• When I started the Gary Must Go Campaign it was based around his body of work since his National Championship Team. Look at the facts for yourself and you be the judge. Gary is a lazy recruiter who gives nothing but bullshit ass excuses for not getting top talent. Gary could have had RUDY GAY,CARMELO ANTHONY,DARRIN WILLIAMS AND JOSH BOONE not to mention countless others. These are guys who wanted to attend Md.. His excuse is he doesn't want any part of kids who only want to stay one year and go the NBA. Kids want to go where they are wanted. As a child you always knew what parent to ask for stuff from and what parent to stay away from. Gary people see highlights of you yelling and spitting in kids faces on the sidelines when mistakes are made and their not even the ones making the mistakes. Who in their right mind wants a drill Sergeant for their coach. They can join the Marines for that shit. Calhoun, Boeheim,Olsen,Williams,Coach K, Caliprari, and Petino know how to make a kid fell welcomed and that's why they stay in the top 25. I'm not asking for final four every year. Just top 20 and being in the hunt in the tournament is good enough for me. Gary thanks for the memories, but you must go.

Random Thoughts

With all the shit that is going on right now I felt compelled to let you know my take on the various situations going on out there and let you know how I feel. You know me just like Colombian Coke it is going to be pure and raw, so I hope you can handle it. This blog is not meant to offend anyone, but if it does that your fucking problem.Now deal with it."RANDOM THOUGHTS FROM ROMEO IGROMO"

• What the fuck was A-FRAUD thinking when he was taking steroids and getting jacked up like Triple H. If you listened to him yesterday during his sit down with Peter Gammons you heard him mention the word pressure. He said he felt the pressure of having to live up to the 250 Million Dollar contract he signed and that the smoldering heat was wearing him down. You ever been in Baltimore on Westwood Ave. at 12:00 pm in July. It's so hot motherfuckers just walk around butt ass naked with titties and dicks just swinging like we back in Africa. Motherfuckers don't want to eat or fuck and everybody just looks mad. That's heat for your ass. As far as pressure you don't know the meaning of the word. Pressure is when your rent ,gas and electric, water bill and car note are due at the same time and you have to decide which one you are going to pay. Pressure is when your job is laying off and you were the last one hired. Pressure is when you are with this bad ass chick for the first time and you don't want to bust that nut in two minutes. You think about Esther Rolle,B. Arthur, the Lakers Game, what you did last night, your old ass aunt,you even look out the window if there is one. She looks up at you, because you have this dissatisfied look on your face and ask if your ok. You look down at her still thinking about Big Mamma from Soul Food and sweating your ass off and tell her it feels good. A-FRAUD that's pressure ,making guaranteed money is a fucking dream. Guarantee me 250 million and I don't give a fuck what anybody thinks. You couldn't tell me shit. Romeo your performance today wasn't real good. Yeah but I got 250 million dollars motherfucker. Hey babe the sex wasn't that good are you alright. What the fuck? Bitch I got 250 million dollars. Go fuck that. A-Fraud you took the roids, because your ego would not allow you to play second fiddle to anyone. You said you didn't know what you took. I honestly believe you. You knew you were taking performance enhancing drugs, but when Canseco was shooting you in the ass it could have been anything. I don't do Coke, Meth, Ganja, or Crack, but I know motherfuckers that do. Unless you have a laboratory and a medical dgree you don't know what you are smoking or snorting.
• My take on performance enhancing drugs is this. If you truly want to get rid of this problem, then lock motherfuckers up or force them to go away and loose their contracts. Fines and suspensions don't do shit and guys even lie to grand juries now. Threaten them with jail time or a lifetime ban and this shit will stop real quick. Make millions playing a kid's game cleanly or shacking up with Adabezy and pole dancing for him and his boys every night. Ask Pete Rose if that lifetime was worth his career. That's how you get rid of the steroid problem, because right now the punishment does not fit the crime.
• There are very few things in life that brings together people from different races and upbringings like sports does. It's an escape from reality and it allows us to feel apart of something and share our emotions through it. If sports aren't sacred there really isn't anything left that allows you to escape from the daily grinds of every day living. Clean up baseball and change the economic structure and fans like myself may actually return to the sport.
• On to a lighter but stranger topic. Kanye West aka Kanye Tida aka The Louis Vuitton Don now wants to be known as Martin Louis King Jr. Has this bastard lost his mind. I will let you insert your punchlines on this one.
• Romeo how do you feel about the Ray Lewis situation? If it was my money I would have signed Sugar Ray last year when it would have been cheaper. I told my boy Brad Piff that Ray has been the common denominator on the Ravens defense that last 10 years. Coordinators(Marvin Lewis,Jack Del Rio,Mike Nolan) have left. Players have left(Adelius Thomas,Ed Hartwell, Tony Saragusa,Michael McCrary,Rod Woodson,Duane Starks,Jamie Sharper)and yet only one other defense has rivaled the Ravens D over the last ten years ahas been the Steelers.He is your leader on and off the field and you are questioning if you should pay him or not. Baltimore would you rather have Ray or T.O.? Ed Reed and Terell Suggs are outstanding players, but they are not leaders. Do you want Bart Scott's emotional ass leading your defense. Remember his behavior in the Patriots game a year ago(throwing flags at refs and cursing so bad that Kevin Garnett e-mailed him and told him man I got kids you gotta watch your fucking language Bitch). Ravens fans say go and sign a receiver like Fitzgerald. From where motherfucker. You not getting no Fitzgerald, but let me ask you this. Why create a hole on your team that was one stupid ass penalty and drive away from the Superbowl. Ozzie make the right decision before you regret it.
• Quote of the week: I DON'T PLAY LESS SO I WON'T PLAY FOR LESS. Won't be know hometown discount.
• Chris Brown and Rihanna. I have heard a lot of talk, but nobody is saying shit. There are rumors of a broken jaw, facial contusions, bite marks and signs of a struggle. No those are signs of an ass whipping. A struggle is when you have a hard time doing something. From what I heard it seems one sided and far from a struggle. I have girls of my own and I don't condone violence towards women at all. My father told me years ago never put your hands on a woman. I took that to mean never hit or fight a woman. I will lay my hand across that cheek bone in a minute if I have to, but that's more intimidation than anything. That being said if the reports are true Chris Brown is a fucking coward. Some have said she gave him a STD. Even then fighting and biting and scratching is bitch like and he deserves an ass whipping for that shit. I guess Chris Brown don't got milk now.
• Miguel Tejada should have used Sammy Sosa's defense and told congress me know speak English. Sammy conveniently forgot how to speak English and that shit worked. He even forgot his fucking name. He had to confer with counsel to remember his fucking name and the team he played for. That was brilliant after a while they stopped asking him questions. Instead Tejada just lied like he was an American and now they are going to ship his ass back to Cuba in a paddle boat. Morale of the story to all foreign players. Play the language card. When people have to keep repeating themselves after a while they just stop talking.

NBA FASTBREAK ISSUE #2

A lot of exciting things happened this week in the NBA and I am going to recap them. A PIMP NAMED STERN could not have been happier. Hey Stern stop dick riding the Celtics and Queen James.

• After the show THE MAMBA put on Monday night in the Gaaaawden Queen James tried to do him one better by dropping a triple double on the Knickerbockers. Queen James display was awesome, but it was lacking something and this is no knock on the second best player in the game. To me it just seemed like Lebron forced his shots up and there was no drama.
• This summer while I was vacationing in Beijing I caught up with Lebron and I asked him about his relationship with Kobe. Lebron said he and Kobe became real close during the Olympics and he learned a lot about preparation and being a complete player from Kobe. He said Kobe is one of top five players to ever play this game and that he would be a fool not to pick his brain.
• Now I am no fool, so I questioned some of his friends and they said secretly that Lebron was bothered by playing second fiddle to Kobe in the Olympics. He is used to be the Rock Star of the group and he didn't know how to deal with playing the Scottie Pippen role. He has know animosity towards Kobe, but he wants to be the best. It also bothered Queen James that the Gaaaawden didn't embrace him like they did Kobe. He wanted to be cheered, but they booed him. That's life Lebron. Everyone gets booed at the Gaaaawden, but the MVP cheers that Kobe got were for the appreciation of not only putting on a show, but playing the game the right way and not necessarily gunning for a record. When Mike dropped the double nickle on the Knickerbockers no one saw it coming. Same thing Monday night. I knew Kobe was not going to let the Lakers loose especially after the bad news they received about Bynum, but I didn't see 61 coming. No one saw 81 coming either on the Raptors a couple years ago. That's what makes these things special. Lebron you are trying to force people into adoring you instead of letting your play attract people to you. Just keep playing your game and people will appreciate you for being Lebron not for trying to be Kobe or Mike. Your skills are unique and you are not Kobe or Mike. You are the first Lebron.
• Many of my peers believe the Celtics are still the favorites to win the finals even after losing to the Lakers twice. I believe that in a seven game series Kobe will not let his team loose to the Celtics again. Last nights game came down to who wanted it more. The Lakers were playing their third game in four nights and KG was coming back after sitting out the past three games all Celtics wins I might add. Kobe hit three big threes in Pierce's face and willed his team to victory when he didn't have a good shooting night.
• The key was Casper finally showing up. Who is Casper you are thinking? Lamar Odom that's who crackhead number#1. Whenever Casper shows up the Lakers are a dangerous team. After that shoving match with Garnett in which Garnett called him a Bitch Odom seemed to wake up. Still I am not going to pat this Bitch on the back. He is the biggest dick teaser on the planet replacing my 8th grade teacher who had the biggest set of textbooks I have ever laid my eyes on. One good game out of 49 doesn't cut it. Either produce or trade this mutherfucker!
• Who died and made the Celtics the JUNIOR WARLORDS OF THE NBA. These mutherfuckers talk more trash than Kanye Tida and 50 cents combined. Kg wanted to fight after Casper patted him on the ass and Rondo tried to bump Kobe, but Kobe put him in his place. I think the Celtics really believe that the LAKERS are soft and that they can Bitch them. Memo to the Lakers go out and Kenyon Martin and all this soft shit will stop. Motherfuckers are going to try you all, because Bynum is out but yall really need to man up.
• The other night in Denver Coach Pop did something that I admire. I hate the Spurs, but I respect their franchise and what they have accomplished. The Spurs were playing their third game in four nights and Pop told A PIMP NAMED STERN and the NBA to kiss his ass and he rested Duncan,Parker, and Ginobli. Even though he threw the game he prooved his point and protected his players. Thats how you gain the respect of your team and have them play hard for you everynight.

• Buffoon of the Week:
• Pookie Phelps I mean Michael Phelps. Not for just smoking that Ganja, but for using a bong aka the GLASS DICK to get your high on. I'm not a Ganja expert, but you look real bad with that glass dick up to your mouth with your lips around it. You get paid a lot of money to be the All American Boy and you go and act like Bushwick Bill. Were you trying to earn your street credibility or were you feening for the glass dick. Even a pure christian white boy like yourself can't smoke that ganja and sell my kids some Rice Crispies. What the fuck were you thinking doing that shit out in public? Did you have a Nickelodian award in one hand and the bong in the other. I hope you loose all of your endorsement money and then you can really live the American Dream by being a feen and being broke Bitch. Now swim your way out of this shit!

61...THE SHOTS HEARD AROUND THE WORLD

I was in Madison Square Garden last night and I witnessed history.Luckily I had my 2 mega pixel camera with me and I was able to take these photos and share them with my readers.

• Before I caught my flight up to New York last night I was talking to Brad Piff,The Great One S., and Curtis Blow about how the Lakers were going to do without Bynum. I told them they would be fine, because they got to the finals last year without him and I believe they are on a mission.Number 24 will not allow them to think otherwise. Last year they were devastated and it took them sometime to recover before they started playing good ball. This time around they are battle tested and Treva Ariza is healthy, so they have a different mind set. I know my boys think otherwise, but I just felt like something positive was going to come from this set back.
• Kobe Bryant is a student of the game and he knows it's history. We exchanged texts through out the day and he was very short with his responses, so I knew what time it was. Kobe realized that the rest of the team was down and this was type of game that they could easily loose if they were not focused. Plus this is the GAWDEN.That's how they say it in New York and Kobe much like Mike respects the Mecca and their fans. I knew they would win and he would lead them, but what followed was purely theatrical.
• I arrived just in time for tip off and I said was up to Jay Z,Spike and Woody Allen and I took my seat beside Phil Jackson. Thanks for the tickets Kobe. Al Harrington tried to joke with Kobe right before tip off and Kobe just brushed him off and later Al said he knew they were in trouble. From the beginning it was all Kobe and Gasol as they scored 30 of the Lakers first 31 points. With Lamarr scoring the other point. Something that I noticed just before the quarter was over was Chandler from the Knicks gloating about a lay up attempt that he block of Kobe's. Wrong thing to do as Kobe made it a point to hit his next five shots on him and close out the half with 34 points. It was a Garden Party in Kobe's honor and the Knicks were his special guests. He danced with those Bitches all night long and even kissed them to show his appreciation.
• Something happened in the second half that I have never seen before in all of my years of watching ball. The NEW YORK KNICKERBOCKER FANS WERE CHANTING FOR KOBE AND YELLING MVP,MVP,MVP. Spike leaned over and said Picasso couldn't have painted a prettier picture than this. He also said Mike has gotten standing ovations at the end of a great performance, but he was never cheered actually while the game was going on. Kobe dunked, hit fadeaways, reverse layups, up and unders and a 360 move that had Spike on his feet leading the crowd in a rendition of NAH NAH NAH NAH NAH NAH HEY HEY HEY GOODBYE. This performance was ridiculous. Bernard King had the record for points in the GAWDEN with60 and Jordan had the record for points for a visitng player with 55. Kobe knew his history and did Jordan and Bernard better with 61. As the game was winding down Phil took Kobe out to a standing ovation and he hi fived Kobe. Phil doing a hi five with a player. If you don't believe me check out the photos that accompanies this blog. Phil even said this was special and he has seen it all the double nickel game and 81.
• Afterwards Kobe,Spike and myself met up at Spike's place and talked about this documentary Spike is doing on Kobe for Espn. D Wade texted Kobe and said awesome game. Lebron called and said save some of that shit for the Celtics. Jordan texted Kobe and said fuck you I still have 6 to your 3 and they shared some laughs over it.
• To all of you Kobe haters out there appreciate what you are seeing, because when it is gone you are going to miss it. This man does things that only Mike could do. Last night even though it was the Kicks Kobe put the rest of the basketball world on notice. THE LAKERS WILL NOT LAY DOWN FOR ANYBODY AND IF YOU DON'T THINK THEY CAN WIN IT ALL DON'T SING IT BRING IT.
• I'M OUT LIKE THE KNICKS PRIDE AFTER GIVING UP 61 LAST NIGHT TO THE GREATEST PLAYER ON THE PLANET
• P.S. LEBRON PLAYS THE KNICKS NEXT. LOOK OUT NY.
