Decisions, Decisions

I'm watching the NBA Draft. To fill the time before the Pistons choose (#29, #59, late picks are hazards of being an elite team), I've turned the televised selection show into my own personal meat market.

There are some fine young being being ingratiated into the NBA. Watch and learn...he's a cutie...DJ Augustin is his name...yum...they're putting up his stats now...he went to U of Texas...oh, he's from the South. New fucking Orleans, at that.

Um, no. We know my policy. Oh, well. 49 more to go!

Let's see...Brook Lopez was just selected to the New Jersey Nets (hi, Vittoria!)...Ooh, he's tall...kind of cute...he went to Stanford...he's from...they're still talking about his basketball prowess, apparently NJN got a steal with this one...oh, he has a curly-haired twin, cute! This is silly, I'll just Google it, hang on...he's from Fresno, Calif. Eh. Could be better, could be--eww, his voice is unbearably annoying.

Moving on. Trade news, etc. Interesting...

And we have another cutie! Damn, he's fine...Joseph Bayless from U of Arizona...too bad he's going to the Indiana Pacers, of all places (we've never gotten along after that nasty brawl)...ok, he's from Phoenix, not ba--the Runner was from PHX. Hmm. Is Arizona the South, really?

I think this may take awhile. But as a treat, I'll eventually let y'all know who my future NBA husband will be, as not to leave you hanging. Don't thank me. You've done enough.

*PS, do we like the new color? I don't like overly bright hues (when it comes to clothes), but I need a change. When my blog is light, like this, though, I feel strangely...exposed. Like everyone can see all my SECRETS. The perfect layout's out there somewhere, I just know it.

So you apparently work in music media, love sports, got sucked in by "Cupid's Chokehold," and read enough to rack up a more than $15 library fine? I'm officially in blog love. Haha. Keep up the good writing.

PS
Kissing my ass by watching the draft last night was totally overkill. Not like I work for the league or anything. ;)

Why thank you! :) And if you really do work for the league, I bow down to thee

Love the color!

Lucky said...

VC I'm glad you like it, it's growing on me, too!

I do like the coloring a lot...bnut I do understand what you mean about being exposed...it is kinda like with the light background everyone can see it and you are no longer "hiding" it...Trader Joe's is too damn expensive!!! I went there and bought some syrup...I thought that shit was $5...it was fucking 12.99...I picked uop the wrong one...organic can kiss my ass...but i do walk a lot...trying to reduce my carbon footprint!!

Lucky said...

Ooh, chile, yes TJ does not play...their potato chips are delish, though, I can eat them by the huge, salty bagful. I'm so glad you're trying to reduce your CF, I want to take bigger steps as well!

I'm on the Facebook if yer feelin friendly, ha. ;)

BB: Awesome article. I'd love to go to a draft, or better yet, have a front office job in someone's camp. I'd love to work in the NBA, with the players if I could!

Thanks. Thursday was my first time ever at the Draft, despite having grown up in NYC. Crazy time. Crazy fun, though running around to interview all those guys was pretty hectic. Lotta spots in league PR if you look for 'em ...

Lucky said...

I'm sure there are. My background is in writing, but recently I've been thinking about maybe going into team PR...

If you wanna write, with Turner taking over, you gotta be ready to move to Atlanta in October.
