Several things before I fall asleep tonight:
1 I’m thrilled OU’s Jermiah Fears was selected as the 7th player in the NBA draft tonight. Jeremiah was a delight to watch this basketball season. An absolute delight. Jeremiah becomes the 10th player in OU’s storied basketball history to be a first round draft pick.
By the time he adjusted to the SEC level of physicality in his lone collegiate season…he was right there with Final Four MVP Walter Clayton Jr. If you think MJ is full of shit on that one…consider Walter Clayton Jr. was somewhere around the 18th player taken tonight.
Seven closing words on Jeremiah…Pick and roll- made for the NBA.
2 I did watch about 90 seconds of Donald Trump’s NATO address today. My policy on here to date in POTUS45/47’s second term has been to ignore Donald Trump given I’m a Stage 4 cancer survivor and I really don’t feel I need to piss off God at this point. But after what I witnessed today…I’ll just say this…from this point forward…I will not directly call Donald Trump out for his whoppers. I’ll just play one of my favorite George Constanza scenes instead.
3 Alex Caruso is doing a special greet and meet at the Raisin’ Cane in NW Oklahoma City tomorrow. Clearly, Jamal Murray is still my favorite current NBA player. Despite what ThunderChick may want to think…MJ is not a bandwagon jumper.
But my soon to be six year-old grandson in Denver, RJII, now has an Alex Caruso jersey, even though to date he’s primarily an ice hockey player, soccer player, and golfer. Interestingly…he plays hockey and golf as a left-hander, yet his dominant foot in soccer is the right foot.
Anyway, my plan is go get my terrain bike done early and see if I can somehow get something signed for RJII without MJ either getting arrested or escorted from the premises of Raisin’ Canes as I’m almost certain this is going to be crazy tomorrow. And MJ has never been very good about melding into craziness in a docile manner.
God bless, and remember what George Constanza always said about lying..”It’s not really a lie… if you believe it.”
MJ
