Reminisce Session: 1995 Air Jordan 10 "Chicago".

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

These take me back to 8th grade when MJ came back to the Bulls for the last 17 games of the 1994-95 season. Their first game was an Overtime road loss to Indiana on March 19, 1995. I had the shadows by then but as soon as I saw these I wanted them. This was the first time that I can remember a Jordan being released that didn't come out everywhere. They came out with the powders around that time, but I wanted these. I remember some of my classmates getting the powders and coloring the blue strips red. I knew if I was lucky enough to get the powders my dad would've looked at me crazy if I did that. I remember him getting me the 94 1's around this time since they were on sale for 55 bucks at Champs and being mad at me for not tying them up all the way. I still have those 1's. I had to get another pair of shadows around 2003 because my OG pair was TOO done.

Like most shoes, I reminisce about these because I've always wanted them. I felt that these would've been better in the first countdown pack then those sorry ass shadows. Think how much more that countdown pack would be sought after if they put the Playoff 13's and these Chicago 10's. I have the Playoff 13's, but I would've gotten that pack if they did that.

Flashback: Spring 2006.

At CD/Game Exchange Maple we used to watch this shit constantly.

IT'S THE JUGGERNAUT BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On Our Way To The 'Ship!!!!

I get so much joy out of the Lakers winning because there are so many people here in Cleveland on Cavs crack like I've said in previous posts. The Lakers are going to their 15th NBA Finals Appearance in my lifetime (1980, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1991, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2008, 2009). They beat Denver ass on their own court. Barring injury, I think they could take the Cavs or the Magic.

Anyway, Before that I went to Beachwood Place and I took Z some huge sunflowers. It apparently brightened up her day though she did trip a bit about how much I paid for them. eh. what's new. It was nice to be at Beachwood again though it is HYPEBEAST HEAVEN....

I Got......

Black Chucks.

And An Akomplice Tee. I love their tees, I have a few that I got last year.

I spent more money than I planned, but these are the first things I've been able to buy myself in months. I got the Akomplice Tee from Next, the main supplier of Clothes for the Cleveland Hypebeast. When I went in there everything just stopped like a scene from a sitcom. I was because I wore this......

Whatever. I always say, when Jordan was playing, you niggaz that are old enough act like you didn't have Chicago Bulls hats, jerseys, and starter jackets, and the Bulls are one of the Cavs biggest Rivals along with the Pistons and to a lesser extent, the Wizards.

I've gotten some PM's and emails asking where I've been in regards to not posting on Niketalk, ISS, NSB, Sneakerfreaker, and even FSF. I appreciate the concern, but the shoe person in me is asleep. It isn't by choice, but I can't be on the boards when 90% of my clothes and all of my shoes are in storage. All I have with me are my pairs LeBron 6's that I've bought since I lived here, some Goadomes, some black timberlands, some semi beat Air Max 03's and the chucks pictured above are all I have here. I know i'm not the only one suffering due to this recession, but for me to go from a 4 bedroom house in Shaker heights to living in a 1 bedroom place in a 4 suiter house in the hood has been a mentally draining experience. I finally got promoted to management at GameStop so things are starting to look up. It's funny, 'cause the people around here don't know me, and I can tell that they think I can't dress......they just have no idea. The bill for the storage is killing me though. It's like 200 a month. I could fake it like some and just post pics of shoes that are saved on my comp, but that just makes me mad when I think about it. I just hope next month this can be over with and I can move out of here. Thank god for month to month.

I got caught in an awkward situation earlier before the game. I ordered pizza from Papa Johns and the old lady next door asked me if I saw some keys and the cluckhead bitch from across the hall asked me if she could have some of my pizza. I could clearly see that I wasn't with it, but I said fuck it. She said she'd pay me a dollar for the slice, then her bitch ass didn't even have it. I HATE WHERE I LIVE.

Don't worry. I'll be back posting everyday very soon.

Memorial Day Weekend.....Weak.

Memorial Day Weekend sucked.

Monday we were open for no good reason until 9pm. I'm glad Dad remembered to bring me a plate. Weak.

Sunday I had brunch with Mom.

Then after that I went with Z to the Cavs watch party at Quicken Loans. It was Game 3 of Cavs Vs. Magic. The Cavs lost. Z was pissy.

Mom. I was impressed. She had a NBA & Looney Tunes allstar tshirt from the 90's which featured Ewing, Reggie Miller, Kemp, Barkley, and Larry Johnson along with Bugs, Daffy, Yosemite Sam, Porky, and Elmer.

Mom had on 95 Zens and Dad had on Uptempo Premiers.....They love Nike almost as much as me. LOL.

Some old shit she had of mine in storage.

My favorite tee in High School. I used to wear this like 3 times a month in 1998. I can't get an arm in this now. LOL>. Also, that rainbow shit isn't too becoming. I never thought about that back then.

ICEBERG JEANS!!!!!!!! I used to love Iceberg....I had a lot of it too....along with Moschino, Coogi, Gucci, Armani, and some Versace. I don't know where any of that shit is now though. I paid 180 for these jeans from the Bart Simpson collection from 1999. I had the sweater and hat too. You couldn't tell me shit. We used to crack heads with those clothes, some fresh timberlands or J's. Aaahh. Back in the day. LOL.

Shit has been up and down lately. I've been lazy, hence the lack of posts lately. Certain people are reminding me how full of shit they are....you tell them about shit and put them on to shit and when you ask them to do something in return, all you get is a bunch of shit you aren't trying to hear....and certain people are giving me the inkling that it's a priveledge to be friends with them or something. Fuck Them And Fuck You If You Feel The Same. But Like The Title Says, At least the Lakers won and are up 1-0 over the hoe ass Nuggets.

Another thing that has been getting on my nerves is people holding shit against me that I can't control. It's cool though. FUCK 'EM.

Here Are Some Pics from mothers day when myself, my parents and sister all met up to have a meal. A very light skinned experience to say the least. Lol.

Everyone's Addicted.....That Cavs Crack....Smh.

The Title says it all....Everyone is so high on the Cavs that it's sickening. Z , all of my friends, relatives, co-workers, customers, old people, everyone. Shits crazy. This reminds me of when the Indians were good in the 90's and everyone had the jerseys and hats, niggaz had the kit where you could have the indians script and/or the chief wahoo logo in your grass....everyone was on it, but now that the indians are the worst team in baseball, you can't find that anymore. People also get it twisted that I'm agasinst them, and that simply isn't the case. I love how LeBron is a throwback player from the 70-90's and not really like most of the other players today, but people are running around saying the Cavs are a great team and they haven't won shit yet. I'm happy that the Cavs are finally a possible powerhouse team after 39 years of mediocrity with some "good" years sprinkled in there. I've been a Laker fan since the 80's, so how would I look jumping on the bandwagon now that they're good. I own LeBron jerseys and I have atleast 3 colorways of every LeBron sig that Nike has put out since he was a rookie in 2003-04. I have every LeBron commercial that Nike has made on my Zune. I even have an Austin Carr mitchell and ness jersey from 1975-76, but I'll never like them like the Lakers...It just won't happen.

This Morning Me, My Dad, And Deacon Lockett got together for breakfast at Broadway Pub right next to South High School in the Fleet Neighborhood. I love Deacon but he's another on that Cavs high. We Debated why the Cavs are allegdly better than LA.

This was great because of the L that the Lakers took on Sunday. The Lakers ended up winning by 40....78-118.

Before that Danielle and I hung out for the majority of the day and it was nice. We went to the Gyro George on Harvard and then we went to the metroparks and Steelyard Commons where I got an application for Buy Backs...a store which is very similar to Cd/Game Exchange. The application was like 5 pages long though but eh. We also went to Best Buy where she tried to further decide which she was gonna get between the Ipod Classic and the Zune 2. I also got to see her dad...I don't think I've seen him since 2004 or 2005 if memory serves my right.
