Jon boy, you're the QB of the Detroit Lions. Every year is a disappointment...

Ever wondered what Google looked like through a mirror?

Probably not...

LMAO!

Bobbito x Nike AF1 "Kool Bob Love"

Nike is collaborating with streetball legend and sneaker connoisseur, Bobbito Garcia, in releasing the first Bobbito edition Air Force 1 designed by Kool Bob Love, himself. Slated to release in mid April, the first pair celebrates Garcia's love for sneakers and records.

Bobbito's been doing his thing for a long time. It's nice to finally see Nike show him love.

T-Mobile Sidekick ID Leaked!

Over the past few months, rumors of a “Sidekick 2.5″ were flying about. I took notice and after a few weeks, checked with some of my sources to confirm. Sure enough, a “Sidekick 2.5″ was in the works as a trimmed-down alternative to the Sidekick 3. Today I was leaked a picture of the device, which you see above in a color pattern known as “ugly”. Though it’s not the prettiest device, the Sidekick ID (yes, that’s it’s name) comes with all the features you love on your SK3, just without all the crap.

So what’s in a name? The Sidekick ID is trimmed down to showcase communication features rather than the extra crap that’s usually included. You won’t find some of the following features on the Sidekick ID: Bluetooth, MP3 Player, digital camera, or a microSD slot.

What you will find on the Sidekick ID though is probably quite welcome to most people. An IM client with AIM, Yahoo!, and MSN, e-mail client, web browser, and, of course, a phone are all part of the Sidekick ID’s core. An updated Danger OS and new menu style will of course be present, but don’t expect a radical new design change or anything like that. Of course, T-Mobile’s myFaves will be an integral part of the Sidekick ID.

Navigation will include a trackball like the Sidekick 3/Tempest arcade machine, but it’s currently unknown if the d-pad will make its way to the Sidekick ID’s final design. Since all we have a picture taken from a T-Mobile employee, it’s hard to gauge if the left-hand side will be a speaker or d-pad. Perhaps both? It’s a possibility, but judging by the looks of it, I’d say a speaker.

The fan-favorite keypad design will stay with the Sidekick ID, allowing you to text and IM to your heart’s content. The display will still flip out and make a ridiculously loud sound so everyone knows you’re using a Sidekick. Don’t worry. You’re still special to us.

So with most of the specs and features covered, two questions remain: “How much will it cost me and when will it be available?”

Brace yourself!

The Sidekick ID will drop in Q2 this year, most likely during the summer and will cost less than the Sidekick 3. I’ve heard from two sources that a $149.99 price point is being considered to keep it affordable and to make it available to the masses. I mean let’s face it. T-Mobile totally made a killing releasing the Sidekick 3 and making people pay $300 with a 2-year contract. Sure they can leave their contracts now, but T-Mobile still made decent buck.

However, with more core features and less gimmicky crap like an MP3 player, the Sidekick ID has the chance to become one of the hottest communication devices of the summer. Think of it as a Blackberry for non-professionals who still want to keep in touch with friends, family, and co-workers while on the go.

Anyways, that’s it. That’s the dope on the Sidekick ID. It’s not called the “Sidekick 2.5″, it is lacking certain features, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing in this case, and it’s due out this summer. Enjoy.

So, T-Mobile is planning to release a more affordable "Sidekick" for those who aren't willing to shell out 3 bills for a Sidekick 3. (Can you really blame them?) Although nothing is official, I still don't think I'm going to update my Sidekick II. The SK2 does its job, in recieving e-mail, acts as an Instant Messenger, and allows me to surf the internet. I don't need all the bells and whistles the SK3 has, especially for another 3 bills.

And besides, the Sidekick ID looks like a smaller Game Boy Advance.

Birthdays

So yesterday, I turned 22. I broke the tradition for once and went out to "celebrate" somewhat. To me, a birthday is just another number. It's not like I gain super powers by turning 22. I guess I can see the big deal with turning 18 and 21. 18 you're "legal" in most states to get your drivers license, purchase stoges, and no longer be considered jail bait. Turning 21 allows you to gamble legally and buy alcohol. After that, birthdays suck ass.

Thanks to everyone who came out last night to celebrate. I know getting me to go out was like pulling teeth, but I appreciate it.

Agent Zero is that dude..

March Madness Indeed

My bracket has gone to shit... I'm holding down last in just about all of my pools. I blame facebook for not using the "upset point system" like they did last year. Not like it would of helped me very much anyways since these Cinderella teams weren't able to do jack shit this year. Log onto facebook to see my horrible bracket.

On another note, here's how I'll go about occupying my time.. I still haven't beaten the game in one day in case you're wondering..

Vinsanity

I don't care if he's a Net or not not... He is still the greatest (yes I said greatest) dunker of all time...

Richmond Recap

Late as fuck, but the trip was a disaster, basketball wise for the least... Fucking, Greg "Playstation" Johnson decides to DRIVE the ball to the basket for a two-pointer, when the team needed a three to tie it. Brilliant move on behalf of our future starting point guard. As much as I want to place all of the blame on Playstation, I just can't bring myself to do so. Hofstra should have never been in that situation in the first place. Antoine shot 2-10 in the first half, while forcing every shot that left his hands. Our CAA Player of the Year Loren Stokes, was no where to be found the whole game... I guess we can all wave bye to his draft stock...

Where does Hofstra go from here? Here's a preview of our projected starting lineup for next year.

PG: Playstation Johnson
SG: Antoine Agudio
SF: Ziggy
PF: MDS
C: Chris Gadley

Knowing Pecora, he's going to try to act cute and mix and mingle with a a new look every week. Hopefully, Hofstra lucks out and finds a walk on Kevin Durant type player... Yeah....

We also spent more time sitting on the bus than we did in Virginia. At least I got a carton of menthols and some mighty Vasa water out of the trip!

Road to Richmond

In just 15 minutes, I will be on my way to Richmond VA., for the CAA Tourney... Perhaps we can redeem ourselves for last year? Only time will tell... First round: George Mason!
