We must BALL.....the Time is Now!!!! Guest Appearance by The Cast of "Forrest Gump"


Yesterday I didn'y go to school because I was completing scholarship essays. Then I went to school at 3:20pm to hand them in so that I would be considered into getting a scholarship. Afterwards I went home and changed because my boy Asbel had asked me to come back to the park and play. Upon my arrival to the park he saw these two whites guys and two blacks guys playing ball. I was with my brother Ryane and my boys, Asbel, Julian and Domonic. My boys were already playing "Utah" when I got there so I joined in. As soon as I retrieved the rock, the domination begun. I started up with a smooth floater, then hit 5 freethrows in a row then missed the sixth one. I played defense until getting the ball soon after. I was at the 3-pointer on the right wing, then I dribbled to the freethrow and jumped as everything went into slow motion, kind of like ESPN instant replay. Asbel tried to block me so he put his hand in front of the ball to knock it down, but remember I'm still in the air when this is all happening so as I'm flying past his hand I shot the ball. Cash, Money, Wet, All Water, Swish!!!! Well whatever you want to call it.... bottom line is that it was good. Then my shooting spree was interupted by the men playing on the other court. They was like "How 'bout some 4-on-4, you wanna play?", of course I couldn't refuse the challenge. Not for nothing, but the team looked like the cast from "Forrest Gump". True Story. I played against Forrest and Asbel played against Lt. Dan and Domonic played against Bubba. Julian played my brother, who didn't look like any of the cast from the movie, but I admit he did look like one of the hippies. We waxed their asses (donkeys) and went home satisfied. Then Ryane and I went home.

Journey To Enlightenment Through Handball


Today I came out of retirement, in the sport of Handball. Today I played against Dalton, Michael, Cantave Jr. and Frankie. My partner was Brendan, a sophomore in the Williamsburg Charter High School . We played 5 games in a row, destroying all the opposition. They call me the Kobe of Handball..... and they're right. No one can deny my supersonic speed, my impeccable hand-eye coordination and of course, my sweet skills. Brendan and I busted Dalton's, Michael's, Cantave's and Frankie's asses (Yes, By ass I mean their donkeys). But not to sound boastful, I didn't even try to win, that's how good I am. The game was just too easy, like Pre-Calc or saving the world (Is there even a difference?). I taught the boys a lesson in handball they'll never forget..... the hard way. The results were as devastating as Katrina. So study hard, suckers so that when we meet in the near future, I won't bust your asses ( Donkeys!!!) as bad!!! Later for now, I'll be teaching sessions afterschool, so bring your notepads.

Captain Dido vs. Gio the Legend


Yesterday there was an epic battle which took place
in the Basketball court on Leonard st. Where the
"stars" go to battle it out, or should I say BALL
OUT!! Candido Martinez and Gio Castillo faced off,
when all of a sudden Gio "The Legend" Castillo
challenged Candido "The Cap'n" Martinez to a 3 on 3
showdown at the greatest sport in the world,
BASKETBALL!!!!!!!
The Cap'n's account of the encounter:
Yesterday was just another day at the park against the mere rookies, amongst them was their leader Gio Castillo, the biggest bumb of them all......
The Legend's account of the encounter:
This is the first post in the life and times of The Legend's life. The Legend is allowing all of you other mere mortals to know about his life because he is being forced by a certain evil spirit otherwise known as Ms. Apostolou. Today, after The Legend's daily incarceration terminated at 4:06, he went to the park and did what he was born to do: bust Candido Martinez's ass playing 'ball......
