Okay you know I’m chillin’ here in DF-DUB (BIG D–Dallas for those that don’t know) so you know I have to always support our home teams, The ‘boys, mavs, rangers and stars. BUT STILL — I’m disconcerted about them moving the Cowboys…(TEXAS stadium) to ARLINGTON! That is BUTT CRAZY to me. Granted the ‘boys were positioned in IRVING TEXAS/ Valley Ranch, but still, that was part of DALLAS COUNTY. THEY ARE NOW MOVING TO TARRANT COUNTY. AACK!
AGGtown has the Rangers & 6 Flags; what do they need with the ‘boys? It won’t be the same but hopefully better. I can’t imagine traveling all the way down I-20 to go to AGGTown as crowded as it is, especially when you pass Cooper Street on a Weekend around noon! Matter of fact, Arlington (AGGTOWN) just got that new shopping village called the ‘Highlands’. YES I said VILLAGE b/c it’s like a town within a town.
Studio Movie Grill is positioned in nice little ‘crooked corner’ of the complex but they need to be Fo’SHAMED b/c they don’t have enough PARKING! Oh wait… I’m off track yet again.
Back to sports, now I’m not EVEN going to pretend that I know the stats, players etc AND I’m definitely not a self-proclaimed sports critic. Still I try to keep up from time to time, and really plan to get more involved with baseball this year as well. ANYHOO! when I wasn’t cheering for the TEXAS teams, I was cheering for my boy KG (Kevin Garnett, BIG TICKET) whatever you want to call him.
So when he got with the Celtics I was like, ‘he’s in the GREEN’? Sure enough he gets on the team and they go to the championship and WIN no less (thanks to Rondo too! ) but still. How many years was KG with the T’wolves? 12 years with no championships. T’wolves traded Garnett for 7 players! So hmmm, within a yeaer of playing for a different team he gets his win…What does that say about that whole franchise player with the T’wolves gig?
My boy got his first championship ring this year. WOOHOO! Excited. Of course, my excitement deflated when I learned KG is MARRIED NOW with a BABY (as of April 2008) to boot. Oh well, he had to marry somebody eh? The good news is, he’s now related to music producer JIMMY JAM of Terry Lewis & Jimmy Jam fame, you know the producers who brought some ‘Control’ in Janet Jackson’s career.
That makes sense though, he did learn meet the wonder duo producers as they are based in minnesota themselves. I ran across that b/c I was so wanting to write & produce songs for Flyte Tyme Records. No go, but still working on it.
Jam & Lewis also worked with GaP for their tv ad campaigns handling the ‘music’ aspect of it. Now that I dipped all in KG’s koolaid w/out knowing the flavor… here’s a link for a more sports related reflectioin of the Celtics win!
