My ideas up to this point were that 1) the Celtics = Floyd Mayweather Jr. (Because they both talk a lot of smack but have the defensive chops to back it up) and 2) that the Golden State Warriors = Manny Pacquiao (because they are both ridiculously undersized and fast). Truehoop has recently done the whole "Garnett/Celtics acting like the O'Doyle family" issue to death here and here so fuck that. And the Warriors blow, whereas Manny is a pint-sized killing machine.
Instead, in the spirit of Steve's post re: what sucks about basketball, I wanted to introduce everything that is wrong with professional basketball, and perhaps America as a whole, by name... and that name is Kevin Pittsnogle.
I want to like the guy, I honestly do. He seems like a sweet guy on his myspace page and Deadspin even did a little piece on how much they love him.
But he named his kid "Kwynsie", which is paramount to child abuse. A human life is on the line here folks. Starting your life with a name like Kwynsie Pittsnogle may be too great of a handicap for any child to overcome. Please, anybody in the Albuquerque region who comes into contact with Kevin, talk to him, explain the shame and horror he is inflicting on an innocent young life and maybe we can put a halt to this travesty before it's too late.
On to brighter things, here's a tight mixtape via gowhere hip hop: iLL Vibes presents: 'Music I Wish Was On The Radio: Vol. 1'
Wale has a couple of great ones on there and Joe Budden and LA's tracks are unbelievable (not in the same way that naming your child Kwynsie is unbelievable).
