Nnamdi Asomugha, up and vanished like a fart in the wind

I think we will all remember where we were when we heard Nnamdi Asomugha of the Oakland Raiders/Philadelphia Eagles/not really a member of, but cashed check from, San Francisco 49ers retired.     I was out of town, and about to fall asleep on my wife while she watched, New Girl. When I got a text from…

Kortney’s Last Show, EP 01: Kanye West, The Cavaliers, Kobe Bryant, and Duck Dynasty

On this first inaugural reincarnation of The Last Show. I talk About Kanye West, Dion Waiters, The Cavaliers, Kobe Bryant, and Duck Dynasty Enjoy!   www.kortneyshanewilliams.com www.comedicprose.com

Dion Waiters, scapegoat for underachieving

Dion Waiters and the Cleveland Cavaliers, haven’t been coming along as quickly as many people thought. Going into this season they were unanimously picked as a team that would take the leap to the playoffs. So when the Cavaliers stumbled out of the gate at 4 – 12, it was time issue blame. The blame…

There is no way…or is there a way Robinson Cano signs with the Seattle Mariners?

. The idea that Robinson Cano would play for the Seattle Mariners is preposterous. He is using the Mariners to get a contract from a team that he really wants to play for. Now I applaud Seattle for their inconsequential effort. It’s nice for them to try to land a good player. I’m use to…

Kanye West, a Bound 2 disaster…“That was Kim Kardashian?”

If you haven’t seen Kanye West’s new video Bound 2, you haven’t missed anything. You can easily find the video on the internet. But you can also keep downloading music through Limewire (the latter is more likely to lead to less viruses). Or if you’re so inclined, you can click on the embedded video below.…

The 2014 L.A. Lakers new chant, “Moneyball, Moneyball, Moneyball”

lakers

There’s one word we can’t stop hearing about.  Whether it’s Brad “Billy Bean” Pitt with that guy from “Superbad” on the big screen, or the real-life roster of The St. Louis Cardinals. Moneyball. Everyone’s trying to buy statistics, not stars.  And as a long-time L.A. Lakers fan, I’m excited, that my team is forced to buy into the same philosophy.
Last night, as I was already reeling from watching the Miami Heat look just as dominant as they did in the last six minutes of Game 6 of The 2013 NBA Finals. I decided (against my better judgment) to watch the late game, where my Lakers would take on The L.A. Clippers.  I was already prepared for the inevitable beat-down.  I was already braced for a Rondo-infused CP3 throwing alley-oops to a much improved Deandre Jordan, and a greatly marketed Blake Griffin.  I was ready to watch Nate Collison run defensive circles around Steve Nash as he did in last year’s opener for the Dallas Mavericks.  I was prepared to see a Laker team, so desperate, so devoid of talent, that Kobe would literally inject himself with HGH while sitting behind the bench, tear off his suit, and hobble on the court like Willis Reed, play 48 minutes and overtime, and then sprain an MCL .… Read More

Kyrie Irving of the Cleveland Cavaliers, and another episode of Uncle Drew

Kryie Irving of the Cleveland Cavaliers, is back with another episode of Uncle Drew. Now I don’t know if the title of this series is actually called “Uncle Drew”, but that’s what I call it. I think it’s called Pepsi Max…Max series of Max…or some confusing combination of those words. It really doesn’t matter what…

Kanye West Yeezus Concert Experience…”A Jesus was There!”

kanye

I went to see Kanye West, in Seattle, at his first stop on the Yeezus tour.

Note self: Don’t ever, ever ever ever ever, be the first stop on a tour again.

 

My Yeezus experience started off late. And by late I mean, the show was supposed to start at 8 o’ clock and the doors didn’t open until 8:30. Kendrick Lamar hit the stage at 10 0′ clock, and Kanye came out at 11:30. The show finally ended at 1:30 am, with me tired and confused. I actually wanted to write about this concert the day after the show, but I couldn’t stay awake. The only way I would have been able to write that night, is if that guy from A Clockwork Orange came to my house, and put clothes pins on my eye lids.

 

The whole Yeezus experience was confusing, creative, and entertaining. It was basically the personification of what Kanye West is.… Read More
