Hey what’s happening good people? Glad to see the responses from you guys. I’m just getting off a tiring road trip. We went 3-3. We should’ve won all of those games, but the chemistry just wasn’t flowing. We made plenty of mistakes, but we’re learning each other better. So don’t give up on us. Remember who we are, Phoenix. We always rise from the ashes. Teams go through tough times, but the darkest hour is just before dawn. We’ll bounce back to the team you love to watch. Look out for us in these next few games. I’m just happy to get a good night’s rest right now. Being on the road for nearly two weeks takes a toll on you. But I can’t wait to face off with the Warriors. It’s going to be exciting being back in the Bay Area. They get “hyphy” lol.
On The real…With all the excitement surrounding All-Star Weekend, I started thinking about all of the great people I’ve met throughout the years. Many of whom are doing major things, but usually go unrecognized. So let’s pay tribute to them over the next couple of weeks. “Do you know any All-Stars?” If so, tell me what makes you or someone you know an All Star! I’d love to feature them in my online magazine, “Xtreme Elevation”. I love to hear about my fans! So get to writing! lol.
On Thursday we have a tough game against San Antonio, then we get a chance to get some retribution against the Bulls. We owe ‘em one. Let’s go planet orange!! Ha ha. I see that someone asked about my birthday. It was pretty cool, Stoudemire and the rest of the guys hosted something for me while we were in NYC. But there’s nothing better than spending that time with the “fam”. Aunt Geri, you owe me one of your famous homemade chocolate cakes.
Until next time…

Whats up jDog Rich. Man i have been a suns fan since i was a young one. I lived in phoenix,az for 13 years. There is nothing like that place. When i heard they traded raja and boris it hurt, But then i heard we got you and i was all hyped up. I wanted to see you what you could bring to our team. I see you guys start to struggle, But i know if you let it play out you and the suns are one of the best teams out there. I mean between the five starters you guys are amazing and can make magic happen. Let the team know i said they look great and to keep their heads up even in bad times.

Jrich wazaaaaaaa!! haha. this is J.J. one your biggest fans and man i cant wait for you to against the warriors and yes i am a die hard warriors fan. Warriors!!ruff!! ruff!!,(that's barking noises),but the w's dont have chance of making the playoffs, that happened the first day you were traded away,so i hope you drop like 40 on em with some amazing dunks to remind the organization what they're missing. I'v been following your whole carreer since you got drafted into the nba and i never thought i'd see playing beside "THE DEISEL", "SHAQ DADDY" or whatever other nicknames he has. I'm happy that you have this great opportunity to win a championship with players like shaq, nash and amare and i can tell your re-energized by this trade. I hope nuthing but the best for you there in pheonix please lets stop the turnovers and take it hole and get to the lind baby!! lol. take care.

Hey JRich, I've always liked your game and was really excited when the Suns traded for you. I know you guys are trying to figure things out on the fly so I hope PHX works for you. Hopefully this is a good situation and ego's and agenda's of others don't interfere with the teams success. Best of luck to you and your team. Stay real.
