Balling in Blue Heaven and Another League Legal Injustice
What’s up Yard?! Its ya boy B-Wood just checking in with you.
It’s been a great week for me so far because I’ve been in Chapel Hill working out working out and playing a lot of ball. Lots of current and past UNC players are in town for Coach Williams’ annual basketball camp. If you’re a Tar Heel fan and could have made it to the Smith Center any night this week, you’d have been in Heaven! Guys like Raymond Felton, Sean May, Jawad Williams, Dante Calabria, Shammond Williams, Danny Green, Jerry Stackhouse and I have all been in the building (not to mention the current UNC players and incoming freshman as well). We’ve been working out and playing in some great pickup games.
It’s been amazing watching Shammond Williams and Raymond Felton go head-to-head all week and battling hard! They’ve both looked great. It seems like Jawad Williams never missed a jump-shot the entire time either. And for all of you Tar Heel fans who want to know how this year’s team will look, let me be the first to tell you that they are very talented and we’re going to be in great shape.
Incoming freshman Dexter Strickland looked great. I loved the way he took command of whatever team was on when we played. Freshman John Henson is really going to be special too. He’s NBA lottery pick material after he finds 20 more pounds. His skill level is phenomenal – he’s going to be a beast!
Sophomore Ed Davis looked very impressive as well as the rest of the current Tar Heels out there. So look out for another banner year Heels fans because these boys are stacked once again!
While I was watching Sports Center with some of the guys, we were all shocked to see the story about NFL player Donte’ Stallworth pleading guilty to DUI manslaughter and being sentenced to 30-days in jail and 1000 hours of community service. For me, this really hits home because my mother and I were hit by a drunk driver earlier this year. So let me get this straight, Michael Vick gets two years in jail for killing dogs and Stallworth gets only 30 days for killing someone? Now they say that justice is blind, but even Stevie Wonder can see that more than 30 days in jail was needed here. I think this was a terrible injustice. This is why so many people look at pro athletes with disgust and disdain. I was thoroughly disappointed.
Get at me Yard and let me know what you’re thinking…
