First Saturday in 5 months free!!!
What's going on YB family? I hope everybody had a great week. I know mine was amazing being back in Baltimore for the entire week. I got to see my family, clean up around the house a bit, and just relax which was incredible. I guess I would definitely trade it all if it meant my team got to be in the play off's, but there's always next year. Oh yeah, almost forgot, for anyone that lives out in Vegas or close enough to drive there, I am going to be playing in a tournament there on Sept 21-23, and it should have some pretty good competition so come check it out if you've got some time! In lacrosse, one of the unique things about the sport is that there are tournaments held all over the world, where any sponsor can enter a team and more often then not, the best players around are at these tournaments so it's great competition. There are torunaments all over the country (Vail, Ocean City MD, Lake Placid, Hawaii, Portland, Miami, etc..) and there are also tournaments all over Europe as well. Professional guys aren't allowed to play in any tournaments during the summer (which is our season (May-August) because of obvious reasons (can't get hurt during the season playing in tournaments). These tournaments are at the very heart of our sport, and it's a great way for fans to interact with the players.The fan's sit right on the side lines and after the game everyone goes and hangs out together at the bar, or people are grilling on the field, it's really an amazing atmosphere. I love playing in those tournaments and I'm excited to get out to Vegas and get another one going! Speaking of excited, it's football season baby! Yes! And Basketball is right around the corner, fall is by far the best time of year. Living right in downtown Baltimore a few blocks away from M&T bank (Where the Ravens play), there is NOTHING like a sunday morning when the street's are lined with people dressed in purple, everyone just so excited about the game that's about to go down. I literally plan my whole weekend around what time the Ravens game is on Sunday, so I can't wait. As for basketball being around the corner, it's always been my first love so I can't wait to watch this year, especially with all the young talent coming in the league. I've got to pick a team this year I think though. I've always been a player fan. There are like 5 or 6 players that I am a huge fan of and I carefully watch them all season long, but as far as an actual team that I'm loyal to, there hasn't been one since the Bulls in the 90's. I know, lame, I've got to step my game up a bit. I could jump on the Wizards bandwagon like everyone else in Baltimore did with them being the closest team to Balto and Agent 0 playing so well, but I think I'm going to hold off on that for now. I'll pick a team sooner, or later, and I'll be sure to keep you updated. I'm excited to watch Greg Oden and Kevin Durant play this year as well. It was pretty cool to see two young guys in the college game last year completely dominate. They're two of the most talented athletes I've seen in awhile, and both seem like great people and hard workers, so I know they'll do well. Alright, so for the most part, I got some good feed back on the most recent debate between my boys, and I appreciate it. But as usual, we've been arguing again and I need some more feed back. So, two quick questions, for starters, what's the best sitcom ever? I've got my opinion on this one, and I feel very strongly about it, and I'm pretty sure there's not an argument that I can't win about this topic! So, what do you think? Top to bottom BEST sitcom ever. Not funniest. Not most dramatic. Not most realistic. Simply THe BEST sitcom ever. Yup, there should only be one show in your head right now and it should be about a big eared kid from Philly, but I'll get more into my opinion there after I hear some of your thoughts. Secondly, ok, it's hard to ask....I'm gonna go for it...Is Justin Timerlake cool? I'm havin a real serious internal battle these days. I'm a fan, I always have been, and I think the dude is disgustingly talented. I went to a concert of his in VA a few months back and he did EVERYTHING. I'm talking key board, guitar, piano, got on the drums a bit, danced and sung all night....I haven't seen someone entertain like that this Michael (yup, I said it). I'm not putting him on that level, I'm just saying as an entertainer this dude is CRAZY good. So my best friend Bense can't take him seriously because of JT's little stint in the boy band. Say's he's soft, sounds like a girl, almost cried when he got punk'd...All valid arguments I guess, but the there's literally NOTHING he can't do when it comes to music. He went from boy band lead singer, to best friends with Tim, doing songs with Snoop and 50? I'm saying, not too many cats can pull that off. In fact, I'm going to his concert again in LA on Sept 19 right before the Vegas tournament I'm playing in! Yup, I'll say it, i'm a fan, guy's got a lot more talent that most other people in the game right now. What do you think? Well, it may be time for me to roll out of bed and go up to my parents house and play with my niece fo a bit. Actualy...I just checked the weather and it say's it's supposed to be 102 here today, that's absolutely gross, I may not leave my house all day because of it, and I'm now in an awful mood! Watching MTV right now, last question, what's the best song of the summer? I think there have got to be a couple up there. Soldier boy? Umbrella doesn't count because it was played entirely too much and I don't like the music video (though the remix with Chris Brown is hot). Alright, that's it for now. I'll be sure to check in again next week. Talk to you all soon and have a GREAT weekend. KH

The best television show ever is The Sopranos. As far as sitcoms, I'm going to go with Cheers. It was just really funny and well written. One of the few shows that you can watch on repeats now and not much is lost even though it's been 15 years since the last episode.
