There was a time at which Nike’s basketball program was stuck on fail. People are more interested in picking up a retro’d version of their favorite shoes than getting stuck with some grotesque creation that they are passing off as a performance shoe (If you drop 40 points on me in some Air Manute Bol’s, youre still getting clowned end of day).
With its aggressive marketing campaign, inclusion of a then high flying Vince Carter and the “Boing Boing” tagline, the Shox series resurrected the basketball shoe as one that can be worn on and off court spawning an entire line of shoes built on the cartoonish prospect that springs on shoes would have you jumping out of the gym.
Nike has now re-released the Shox BB4 as an exclusive at its House of Hoops locations. Will anyone care? hit the comments, let us know what you think.
Usually when i fly, all i get is a sassy male flight attendent telling me im going to have to make the impossibel decision between peanuts and Doritos. Apparently on Southwest you get a ticket to the Source awards as your steward kicks a hot 16 over the PA. Im told he randomly shoots someone in the leg for authenticity. You can cal him rappin steward, i call him newest signee to Re-up.
With the invention of the invention of the internet, actually purchasing pornography is a fool’s mission. This month Playboy is trying to get sneaker heads to forego the shame of stealing nudie mags from newstand. The Playboy crew stopped off at one of our favorite spots Leaders1354 in Chicago (Shouts to Vic and em’) and took pictures of a nude model in some of their favorite kicks. Now if you can excuse me i have some ummm…reading to do.
When you were a kid, nothing meant more than a new pair of Jordans. NOTHING! I’ve seen people trade Jordans for crack (By people i mean me, we all have our vices). At that point in time i was huge cartoon fan that being said I creamed my prepubescent jeans when the Jordan VI Hare Jordans dropped.
Nike has returned to kick a little more dirt on my childhood memories with the release of the Hare Jordan 1. This Air Jordan 1 with the details of the white Jordan VI drop April 11th.
I threw in the old Jordan commercial for good measure, and what!
Iron Mike was as well known for his antics in the ring as well as outside. He ended people’s careers in the square circle and talked his way out of millions of dollars of endorsements outside of it. This best of Mike’s commentary doesn’t need much commentary from me. Im just amazed that someone could come up with that stuff off the top of the head. He should rap
If you didn’t read “Where the wild things are” as a toddler, the education system failed you. Movie versions of childhood favorites usually only fare well with pedophiles who like to post up outside of theaters trying to usher juvenile patrons into their inconspicuous white vans, but this Spike Jones adaptation of the childrens book should draw more adults than children. Or adults using their children as an excuse to watch the movie.
Ive never been one for settling down (come and get it ladies!) but i’ve been penning proposals to this lady since i first laid eyes on her and i have the restraining orders to prove it. Luckily I can hold off on the stalking for a minute and just watch her in this video. At least until i can figure out how to work the lock on her gate.
Moustache P manages to hit up an airport McDonalds before opening thinking that the early bird get the burger. For some reason the song and dance routine did not entice them in turning on the burners. I understand how he feels, I tried the same thing at Nobu and got tazed. Being pantsless and stabbing the Maitre Dee in the hand with a screwdriver didn’t help my case either. What does a black man have to do to get some California rolls?
I Figure we showed off Kanye’s cover, why not do the other side of the mag and show you something that might be a little nicer to look at? Kim showing us the diversity and showing the cleavage game and forsaking the ass for this cover showing that the ability to multitask is that cornerstone of business.
