Five, Five...Five

Last year I missed the chance to pay homage to Moses by yelling out...Fo, fo...fo. Well here's five...five...



Fo, Fo...Fo

***Scoop Jackson from ESPN Page 2 penned an interesting one on Kwame Brown...Check it out here... I don't what fence Scoop is riding on in this article. Is he taking a shot a Mike or not?...Undoubtedly, he's trying to give love to a complete "softie", who may be one of the biggest 'P&$$!&$ ever to play in the league...And no, I won't use the "P-word" in this column. I'll save that for the bedroom and bars...;)

Yet, what I am upset about is how bad everyone gets on Mike's ass for tearing into Brown. How quick do people forget that Brown was the number 1 pick, and he should have been well-aware that he was the future of the franchise. With that said, Kwame did not respond to big-league development like he was paid to do.

What's funny is that basketball pundits support high-schoolers jumping to the "League" because they can develop quicker and better. Yet, when they're pushed by the veterans in the "League", who are the trusted elders, they scream that the development process is too harsh...C'mon.

MJ was pushing to make the playoffs on a guy who never responded to any approach...What would you do with a closing door on a season? The blame should be on Mike for drafting such a "softie."

***Mark Cuban gets hit with spam at BlogMaverick, but he made a comeback with left-right combo against Mike Celizic of MSNBC.

Celizic swears that Cuban's Mavericks and the Lakers were in extensive talks last summer about a Shaq trade. Cuban denies it, and he got into a email throw-down with Celizic that ended with Celizic apologizing on MSNBC's blog for erroneous information. Cuban seems pumped on this post. It must be due to the ref-baiting that he does during a game and in his blog...I wonder how much Cuban really thinks he influences referees' decisions throughout a game....Calm down.

***Now small businesses are embracing the marketing phenomeonon surrounding blog life...Check out this great article... from Ilana DeBare of SFGate. Many small business owners are finding that blogs are affordable yet powerful ways to build online communities around a brand. As you know, the good thing is that people can now be put up-to-date in an instant with a blog...Just remember how many 'ibibloggers' started chuckling when we started this. Believe me, SBOs (restaurants, bars, hardware stores, record shops)...Blogging works.

With that said, be sure to leave your comments on any subject here in order to improve this blog.
