The Wheelchair Classic is here…

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

and it starts with the ladies-

Bronx vs Queens- a nail biter

and the fellas-

Westchester vs Queens- My man Lou Larizza injured himself so Queens was spared the raining of jumpshots that would have certainly occured, but it couldn’t have been worse…

meanwhile back at IS 8…

Friday, April 18th, 2008

the saga continues…

Mount Vernon vs C-3 Elite

Metro Hawks B vs For The Good Of The Neighborhood (FTGOTN)- a real goodie!!

all this exposure!!!?!…

Monday, April 14th, 2008

This was the traditional exposure weekend in the area.  That means that all the players who didn’t do what they where supposed to do(for whatever reason, and they are many!) get a chance to be seen by college coaches for another chance at a college education and a basketball career, unfortunately not neccessarily in that order. 

First was the Alternative High School Exposure game at Bronx Regional.  Shout outs to Wade Williams and Ken Fair, real heroes who do the right thing without much ado or fanfair.  We could all learn from that and I do.  I am proud to call these gentlemen my friends.

The Alternative High School Game

then we went to IS 8 to see

Juice vs Rangers- Forrest Hills with an import and no Lance!! 

Then we have the “Bigga College Exposure at FIT“ another fixture in this college exposure game.  This was shot for the referees so the angle is a little different.

The Bigga Exposure Game

And finnally Tom “Tippy” McTiernan had his Big Apple Exposure at CCNY

and just when I thought I could rest if not sleep…IS 8!!

Playaz Club Weekend so if you can’t get enough of Jimmy Salmon-

check this out…

Playaz Club Seniors vs East Coast Elite-  (got to show with your 6′ 8″s and 6′ 6’s here!!)

Playaz Sophmore vs Starrett City- (Jermaine shows late with five and a couple show up later)

Playaz Seniors vs B’ballers- JFK’s entry boot camp- shout out to Elijah!!  You made it boy!!!

Playaz Sophmores vs Team Underated B

Playaz Juniors vs Harlem Pride

Juice vs For The Good Of  The Neighborhood (FTGOTN)- the Juice survive and thrive through a weekend without Lance.  Curtis Loving, Air Jamaica, and Chaz Williams can handle it, I think LOL

Playaz Juniors vs Brooklyn Ballers-  The game of the day!  the baller formerly Annesa brought it and the Playaz where ready…

now can I sleep?
