Fun with Google - San Antonio Spurs


Step 1: Think of a current, relevant topic

-Check! How about the San Antonio Spurs?

Step 2: Type that current, relevant topic into Google Images

-Check!

Step 3: Find a picture that doesn’t quite fit

-Check!

Step 4: Write about it

Check! So that’s what “Fun with Google” is. This really is a random picture. What can it tell us about the San Antonio Spurs though? I see two similarities between the picture posted above and the San Antonio Spurs.

1. The Spurs are all alone this season. I believe they are in a league of their own right now. They are likely to win the NBA Championship. That will put them at the top of the league. Number 1. All alone.

2. It’s sad being the Spurs. Why though? Their team is a bunch of cast-offs. Danny Green was originally a Cav. Gary Neal wasn’t drafted out of college. Kawhi Leonard fell in the draft. Stephen Jackson has played for numerous teams. Same for Boris Diaw. At one point I’m sure all of these players felt unwanted or alone.

This picture and the San Antonio Spurs actually have a lot in common. I can see why I found it in Google now. Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but that’s how you have Fun with Google.

Blogging from work


This is where I work these days. I'm the General Manager of LA Boxing Sterling in Sterling Virginia. It's a great job if you want to be able to blog from work. We have a bunch of famous athletes here. Daniel Attah and Niles Paul are both members. Google them if you don't know who they are. If you're reading this, stop by sometime. Use Google to find the location and hours.

I've been awful busy as of late

Whenever I say I'm going to find more time to post to my blog, I never do. I'm just so busy all the time. I'd love nothing more than to break down the latest topics in sports. It just doesn't pay the bills. Maybe this time will be different though. I’m going to use future posts to show some more of my personality and humor. It might not be funny or entertaining, but it will help me pass the time. If anyone out there is reading this, tell all your friends to start following me. It will help my ego.
