What Celeb Could Save the World?

Everyone has the potential to do something good for humanity. Everyone has there own idea what can be good for humanity aside from the general stuff. Could a jazzy idea or witty catch phrase be as powerful as lending millions of dollars to a charity or rescuing someone from a burning building? Not neccesarily, but it could have a similar impact. Can the same be near the equivilent of the opposite, such as ruin people's outlook on life, attitude, morals, etc. I think so, but let's focus on the positive possibilities. When Whitney houston stated in the Barbara Walters interview, "Crack is Wack" during the early nineties, the strength behind her tone and simple yet straight out no nonsense yet casual wording left a healing mark on the culture during that time. People who had their lives' ruined could lighten up their aspect just enough to rhyme out something they didn't need anymore and others could intercept the possibility of future trouble. The power of the influence of one classy(at the time, maybe still) pop star in Whitney did in seconds with clever simplicity what ten public service announcements may not have been able to do in a year. I'd love my readers to talk about a catch phrase from a celebrity that left a positive mark on their lives. If you have to include any kind of profanity, try to use some king of abbreviation or slang please. Thankyou.

Reflecting on Mj's thoughts regarding Free Agency and Team Roles

In one of the more recent interviwes with Michaeld Joradan, her reacted to the money offered to free agents as fairly out there, compared to the circmstances during his playing days. He did seem to thik it was strange to have to big stars on the team playing side by side. He seems to be considering the combination of Lebron and Dwayde near the equivelent of him being with a Majic or Bird. I can see that to as degree. Some, however, would bring up Him being with Pippen as a similar situation. I think during the time they teamed up, it may not or may have been, though Pippen was still one of my favorite players regardless. What do my readers think of this?

Knockin on The Wall

I have decided to follow the progress of one cherished rookie following the most recent NBA draft. I have chosen John Wall unanimously, him being a fiesty and agil gaurd. As i have said in a previous post, he tends to reflect the game of a young kenny Anderson, who if you aren't familiar with, can learn about from my prior post. Now, as many know, when most college players hit the big leagues, they often train and diversify there game to live up to pro calibur in order to better compete with their opponents. In Wall, you can see he is doing a lot more spinning on the break as well as crossovers going left very often. I saw some of his performance in the Reebok summer championship and saw much of the pronound D Wayde's style and approach which I think will serve Wall and his team well. Through such means, in his lightning quick first step and reflexive motion off the dribble, he can get in position for the easy pull up jumper, go to the hoop, or dish. You can tell he knows how to get around any height advantage his apponents may have over him with his sound overall instincts. He will have to learn how to get open from the screens though and challenge, or rather answer back to double teaming from opponents.
