Coupla Things...Quickie Edition...

* First, here is the link to the pics of the Second Annual Lockheed Martin 3 on 3 Championship. Thanks a lot to Kamari for taking such fantastic pictures, and thanks for everyone who came out and helped out the Boys & Girls Club of Grand Prairie.

* Okay, I can't resist: here are some of my favorite pics from the site, with commentary:


Tim dominated the tournament: Led in scoring a couple of games, rebounded, defended; he did it all for the championship team. However, Kamari just happened to get the time he took on Big Nate--and lost.


Sam is just beautiful to watch. There's really no other way to put it. I could have done an entire post of Sam pictures alone. This one, though, is the best. Look how high above the rim he is!


The ultimate "big versus little" pic.


Chad is not a dirty player by any stretch of the imagination. However, it happened that in about half of his pictures, he looked like he was hitting someone. This is no exception.


In spite of all of the incredible action shots Kamari took, this is probably my favorite picture. It looks like something you'd see on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Just a great shot of Eric.




Here's Kamari getting Jonathan to bite on a headfake. Who took this picture since it's of Kamari? That would be yours truly. And yes, I'm going to ignore the other ten of Kamari that I took that I messed up, and go with these. :-)


Kamari's favorite pic of the tournament. I didn't get the block. I didn't know I could still jump that high.


No foul there.


And, finally, here's a nice group pic. It's at the end of the tournament, so some people had left already. I won't point out winky. ;-)

* Kal Penn is teaching a class at Penn? So many questions: Is it a spoof off of his last name? Is the class going to be teaching kids the best ways to smoke weed? Will he also moonlight as a "party liason"? And most importantly, where do I sign up?

* "I think I might actually start watching Dancing With The Stars 3."
"Have you finally gone gay on us," you ask?
"No, not yet," I reply. "It's because Paulina Porizkova is in it!"
"Who the Hell is that?" you ask.
"The star of one of my favorite movies of all time, Her Alibi!" I shout enthusiastically.

"God you're weird," you say.

"Yeah," I happily admit.

* And, finally, TMNT was great. Very good movie. I keep reading reviews that say it isn't any good. I have no idea what they're talking about. It's a good quality flick, and I'm looking forward to seeing Shredder return in the next one. Go on out and see it! Turtle fans everywhere will be happy.
