Top of the Day to everyone out there in Cyber-land. Hope you all had a Safe St. Patrick's Day. That holiday is a really big deal back in Bay City, MI (neighboring city to Saginaw-my hometown). In fact they were even thinking of dying the water green. Someone needs to let me know if they succeeded?? lol
Well, I've been taking a break and getting some much needed rest. We had a day off after the game in the Bay Area against the Warriors. We put it on them really good. I still love you Warriors Fans, but we're trying to make the playoffs down here and we're taking no prisoners!! We've put ourselves in a very tough position. Everyone understands what needs to happen to get us in that 8th spot. Right now we're hoping all of our fans are rooting for two teams. 1. The Suns 2. Whoever plays Dallas. lol
Yesterday we finally did it. We got Jared Dudley to cut those braids. I've been egging him on about it for weeks now. I told him, "If the King of Braids (Allen Iverson) cut his, then everyone else should cut theirs as well." :) So yesterday was D-Day for those twisty locks. You can see the pics and get a play-by-play of the historic event on twitter.com/JRICH23. It was mad funny!! Don't tell Jared, but I think he looks better with the braids. Ooops! Too late! lol
Okay, okay. I really wanted to take this time to thank all of the fans who have been supporting me. You guys are great and I love the fact that you're following me on Twitter.com/JRICH23 and reading my blogs. It's funny, people have been asking me if the intro song was recorded by "The Juice" (artist from Amare's label w/ T.I.), but NO, it's actually my younger cousin O.J. -Odell Walker- (whose nickname is Juice)he's pretty good. He's working on some mixed tapes and demos, hopefully one day you'll hear more about him.
I've been really excited to see many fans from Asia (Japan & China especially) and the "blokes" from "Down Under" have been sending me emails and following my career. You guys have been asking me about entering the 2010 All Star Dunk Contest. I've decided to respond. It's official. In 2010 its JRICH Vs. Lebron to settle all of the hype about who's the best dunker! Who else do you want to see in the Dunkfest?
I do this for you guys. My motivation for playing is knowing that people are interested in what I do. I love my fans and you guys are often the motivation that kicks me in the butt to get moving, when I'd rather kick back and eat a burger on the couch. Thanks for all of your inspiring words of encouragement. That's why I never turn away kids who want autographs. I'm able to do what I do because of you guys. Thanks. I really mean that.
