I met Kyle Kuzma at a meet and greet in North Hollywood yesterday. Me and a friend were towards the tail end of a long line of about 200-300 people. When it was our turn, I just gave him a fist bump, signed my kobes, and then a quick picture. Dude was so over it and wanted the meet and greet to end. His crew weren't doing math right and overcharged some people including me for his merchandise. His vibe is a classic example of why I would not ask a celebrity for an autograph or picture if out in public.

Meet and greets should be limited to old and washed up wrestlers. I don't understand why a young guy playing in LA with a well paying contract would need to do it for pocket money.

It's hard to keep up appearances with a late first round contract in LA man.... Cost of living and all... :lol:

There were easily 200-300 people there, as each person easily spent at least $50-$100. It is crazy that what he made in 2 to 3 hours surpasses what my brother and sister in law make as registered nurses in a month.

Went to Arkansas for a housewarming party this past weekend...safe to assume that I wont ever go back. Still trying to figure out how I managed to survive without Chipotle or internet for three days.

You know rappers names are getting too damned long when you can't have 2 of them in a news headline without part of it getting cut off...

I've gotten used to consuming drinks and browsing on my phone while on the toilet at home. If there's a threshold for giving a ****, I feel like I've stepped right over it like Allen Iverson did on Ty Lue.

Good to know that all you need is a trusty samurai sword to kill space aliens.

Who'd buy a ranch out in the middle of nowhere that's constantly under alien attack?

Does the sword come with the sale? I mean....I'm not buying the damn thing without that included.

Berlin is a top city. 7 days and I still feel like I haven't scratched the surface of this place.

And as much as I enjoy being in new places I **** hate the act of traveling, the airports, the people, the check-in that takes 2 hours for a 50 minute flight to Copenhagen and you have to strip down to the bare essentials etc I could do without.

Hey guys, I am currently a huge raptors fan but I developed an infatuation with Kawhi Leonard. With more new leaks pointing at high probabilities of Kawhi signing with the Lakers, I was wondering if you can accept me to your sub-forum. I don't like the clippers so we already have something in common!
