Random Thoughts on Random Dudes: The Tao of Eric Snow, AND Dajuan Wagner: no ifs, ands, or butt
The Tao of Eric Snow
Eric Snow, in addition to being my least favorite player in the NBA (besides Drew Gooden), is a moron. Check out his website and you'll know what I mean.
It all seems like god clean fun at first: a few pictures, some shout outs and sponsers, typical NBA website fare. But if you click on the "About" tab, and then on "fun facts", you soon come to irrefutible proof that Eric Snow has the IQ of a sack of potatoes. Let's take a look, shall we?
Fun Fact #1: "Name: Eric Snow" - Ok. Eric, it is indeed a fact that your name is Eric Snow. But thats not fun to me. Want to know a fun fact about this blog? It's called I Heart Celtics. Jesus Christ.
Fun Fact #2: "Birthdate: April 24, 1973 (not sure of the day itself)." Don't worry Eric, neither is Yi Jianlian.
Fun Fact #15: "Favorite Childhood Memory with Parents: Spending childhood in two parent home with mom & dad" - OK, I do respect the fact that Snow is a family man. But when you are asked to identify a single childhood memory, you can't respond "childhood". Its like being asked your favorite color and replying "colors". What a moron.
Fun Fact #21: "College Awards: 3-Time HS Most Valuable Player, 2-Time First Team All Ohio." Apparently Eric Snow is the only player to win "HS MVP" 3 times in college. Outstanding. Even more impressive is his repeat selectino to First Team All Ohio while playing at Michigan State.
Fun Fact #33: "Nickname: Pookie". Good lord, are we having fun yet?

Dajuan Wagner, no ifs, ands, or butts
Speaking of fun facts, I was reading as much random basketball stuff as I could get my hands on this morning, and came across a reference to our old friend Dajuan Wagner. I remembered the hype with this guy going into college at Memphis, the 100 point HS game and his exciting play under old UMass friend John Calipari (who by the way, is an amazing recruiter - look at the players he brought to UMass).
I googled Wagner to see what he might be up to these days. While I expected nothing worse than maybe knife-fighting with Joe Forte over the last Scooby-Doo jersey at JC Penny, I realized it was much worse than that. While Celtics Fans have a lot to complain about these days, Wagner's "fun facts" make me feel a lot luckier to have what I have, including my butt...
1983: Wagner is born in Camden, NJ. And we are 0 for 1 in good places to be born...
2005 - Dejuan's stepdad sentenced to life in jail for selling crack. I'm not sure what Wag's relationship with his step dad was like, but either way, that sucks.
2006 - Wagner's chronic stomache problems force him to have colon removed. I'm not sure what Wag's relationship with his ass was like, but either way, that sucks.

Fun Fact #0000000. Why does this post exist? Isn't it common knowledge that every basketball fan inherently detests Eric Snow? Just his fucking face pisses me off. Eric Snow is universally hated like Hitler and Eric Montross.
Ha, Hitler and Eric Montross. Thats rich
