21 Questions

May 13, 2008

So the 21 Questions concept/gimmick post is back, I’m still not exactly sure how everyone else as a whole felt about it but I had fun with it so I’m a rock it again and try and make it a semi regular post here at New Jersey Drive. As you can see by those blue words in the first sentence I have finally figured out how to properly link things ( shout to I Fux for the tutorial ) so that should make things flow a lot easier. So why 21 Questions, in case your wondering, no I’m not a 50 Stan but I needed to decide on a number of questions and well that seemed to make the most sense, end of story. Once again these are 21 things that on my mind that I am questioning, it’s not regulated to just sports, even if sports questions dominate this weeks 21 Questions. So without further ado here is installment # 2 of 21 questions. (more…)

An Open Letter to Lebron ( and late rd. 2 preview )

May 7, 2008


Enough with the crybaby/flopping nonsense Lebron, at first I thought it was an inaccurate assessment thrown at you by the haters but somewhere in the middle of last nights game I found myself with an application for the Lebron haters club in hand don’t worry I’ll tell you every reason why. For starters I can’t believe you duped the refs into calling a flagrant foul on Cassell in the first half last night. He barely grabbed the back of your jersey and you went down crying like you just took a moving car to the face, what did Cassell rip off that imaginary Superman cape ? You are a genetic freak and absolute beast. ( 6?8 250 lbs. or 6?9 260 lbs. according to him ) You should be able to take a ninja kick to the face from Chuck Norris without flinching. Just cause the rest of the rest of the league stays flopping/whining doesn’t mean you should, didn’t your mom ever teach you that ? If the rest of the league jumped off a bridge would you follow right behind them ? You want to be King James super-duper star of the league, well then you have to be above that and o yeah you might want to actually make those lay-ups at the end of games or more importantly take it strong and dunk the damn ball already.

Hello Goodbye Brooklyn ?

May 2, 2008

Jay-Z might of gotten some good news today with his 150 Million dollar Live Nation deal finalized ( just check the big homie Eskay’s site for that news, http://tinyurl.com/5dowdp ) but his dream of moving the Nets to Brooklyn has taken a giant step back and I for one couldn’t be happier. After listening to all this talk about Seattle losing the Sonics and how outraged everyone should be that they are getting hijacked I couldn’t help but think why isn’t the same outrage happening here over the Nets ? Don’t get it twisted the fans in Seattle have every right to be outraged just like me and most of my friends were when this proposed plan to bring the Nets to BK first broke but it seems like everyone forgot that this was was supposed to happen. Awhile back Nah Right vet ( shout to 911 ) asked me that very question why aren’t Nets fans up in arms about the move. My answer was there were numerous reasons, for one the Nets are low on the totem poll as far as sports teams go in the tri-state area, second the current arena at the Meadowlands is a dump and forget how much of a pain it can be to get to once your there you feel dirty and very uncomfortable, yeah yeah I know that’s Jersey for you. Thirdly it’s only a basketball team was a common theme among people who could actually do something about it and they didn’t care cause the Nets were losing money not making it and instead of using common sense and logic to see why they were losing money and what could be done to have them make money they just wrote it off and concentrated on getting that new hockey arena built in Newark. Seriously hockey was a dying sport it seemed people were forgetting it ever existed and their main focus was on getting hockey to Newark, HOCKEY to NEWARK ?!!! The last reason why I said a big deal wasn’t being made has come to light, most of us just didn’t believe it was ever gonna happen and it looks the lovely borough of Brooklyn is in the process of losing.
