OK, given the recent JLin/ESPN firestorm and the clinically insane tweets of Jenny Hyun, perhaps a bit of levity and humor is in order.

Normally I’d find something like this beyond offensive.  And it is.  Perhaps why I’m not up in arms is because FINALLY we have a bad-ass, kick-ass, Asian American male throwing down in the NBA in which to place opposite what was once the dominant stereotype of Asian American dudes.  End result?  Clash of past ideals with a F’in cool image of the asian american male of our future (which has always been present but benched by the media).

my mind works like this too. when I'm changing diapers, that is...

Thank you Chinese guy and Indian guy of Studio64Comedy for making this and Offending with such panache.  Hope neither of you gets ESPN’d.

Been getting some well wishes from people since Monday.

The only problem is that I do not play for the New York Knickerbockers.

That’s Jeremy Lin.

Merry Knicks-mas

Watching the Knicks stay kinda competitive with the Heat on this Christmas morning made me think about the good ‘ole days when I lived in New York, the 90s. New York made the playoffs every year in that decade. One of my favorite Knicks was Anthony Mason. A New York dude (he was originally from Queens), Mason started with the Knicks in 1991. With Xavier McDaniel, Charles Oakley and Patrick Ewing, the Knicks back then were a physical team. Mase was a big part of it. He had a rough-tough game and a cockiness that I admired.
