Who am I watching being interviewed during the NBA Finals post game interviews? Basketball players or the next indie rock band that touts the cliche’ “I am so hipster it hurts, that I need to wear faux glasses.”
I know you have noticed it too. Lebron, Wade, Westbrook, Urkle….ok Steve Urkle doesn’t play for the NBA. However it seems that these NBA players are all taking fashion advice from our favorite nerd in suspenders.
I have mixed feelings, ok no I don’t. I hate it.
First of all why are they all jockin’ each others’ swag? Don’t they have any originality what so over, or are they all sponsored by the same “nerdy glass” company.
I can see it now a bunch of East Sider flannel shirt, levi’ wearing hipsters’ banded together to sponsor these NBA players to promote their oh so counter-culture lifestyle.
Maybe they should wear them during the game and get real prescriptions, maybe they would make some of those free throws. Better yet give them to the referees, so they can see better and stop calling shady fouls.
Takes?
next week I am going to start slow conditioning can’t wait…..i need to work my legs…look close you can see me back in the day.
capoeira in the movies. and then live….
where I am going in the spring when i am healed ….
Now for the actual sport/martial art/art. Omi and Chulapa playing in the roda, what a great surprise this afternoon. If only I can play, or recover and be as bomb as they are one day…..
i got faith it will happen…im made of steel now watch out
Round two…capoeira love west coast meets east coast
So in honor of my surprise from my great friend Jamel aka Chulapa, who has become one of my greatest of friends. He texted messaged my sister for a week to coordinate the surprise visit….crazy.
I was on my way to hang out with him when he visited last time in LA for a capoeira event, but never quite made it because of my accident that landed me in the ICU for two weeks and hospital for almost a month…..came back to check up on me.
Capoeira I must say has become something dear to my heart, I am not just talking about the pure physicality of the martial art but the sense of community, friendships and bond you make with people.
I am so grateful that I found something in my life that brought so many great and genuine people in my life, and truly is probably the best healing medicine and support that I have had through this whole experience. Not only my own academy Capoeira Brasil, but people from other academies. In addition to people who live all over the country, and yes even all over the world.
This video is my little documentation of my first time in NYC last year, where I was there for almost a month (seemed like a life time) Jamel aka Chulapa nearly dragged , with my consent of course, me all over the city to see the sights despite the bitter cold.
We had a lot of fun times, experienced my first slice of new york pizza with him, a elevator ride that went up and down and nearly freaked us out, showed me Harlem and the infamous Apollo.
One day , I won’t get injured or um today have a lady nearly run my sister over with a car…and show him what LA really has to offer….haha.
