Default Other than Poker, what do you guys do?

Love basketball ever since i can remember.

Used to dream about playing in the NBA but since i couldnt make it, im just a fan and i play as much as i can in the parks.

Favorite Teams - Frustrating NY Knicks (There is hope w/Larry Brown tho) and Sacramento Kings

Favorite Players - Michael Jordan (Best Ever), Allen Iverson & Larry Bird

Your thoughts?

Favorite team is thr 76ers. As far as the best player ever? Kareem Abdul Jabbar hands down .

Other than poker I spend most of my time finishing up my Degree at Rutgers University. I'm a 4th year theater major, focus in acting. Also, I'm big into online gaming....especially if its free. Poker is the one thing I tend to pay for, although, as I get better, I am paying less..and hopefully soon enough I can turn over a profit!

I enjoy investing in the stock market, hot tip for ya all I think ADBL is way underpriced right now, so check it out!

Come this January I'm going on a trip to Amsterdam! My friends lured me into it, they are travel freaks...still I do enjoy traveling, been to Mexico (for a few seconds) and Israel a couple of times. Yet to make my way into Canada, although I'd like to sooner or later.

So yea, acting, games, rutgers, stocks, travel...these are a few of my favorite things. Thanks for askin Peace for now.

J.

Kareem, wow, 1st time ive heard or read anyone saying him as the best basketball player, but to each its own.
He does have the most unstoppable move ever which is the skyhook, i dont even think Shaq can stop that.

Hey, did you see the interview of Allen Iverson on Quite frankly on ESPN?
It was a really good show which showed Iverson crying when Larry Brown was talking about the kind of player he is.
Ive never seen him play live in person which im hoping to see this upcoming season coz i love the way he plays with such passion and no-fear mentality.

Good luck with the acting gig by the way.

I am a sports junkie. I love baseball,football,golf,bowling,and hockey. Favorite baseball teams are my home team Devil Rays even though they suck, then the Reds and Mets. Football is hands down the Bucs, been a fan since the 1976 yucks. Was at their very first home win in 1977 against the cardinals.The lightning are my team, I really didnt watch hockey until they gave us a franchise and now we have a stanley cup . I did get to attend the game 1 lose to the flames, but the electricity at the forum that night was something to remember forever. Last but not least is bowling. I bowl in 3 leagues and average 211,225,226. I have bowled 8 perfect games 5 299's and 2 298's. I also have 3 800 series. I go to the national tournament every year. Its held in Reno every third year so we get in alot of casino action, bowlers are gamble haulics.

Wow, your Bowling credentials are pretty impressive.
Have you ever been on ESPN?
I watch that sometimes coz those guys that bowl are hilarious when they get really excited.

I dont bowl professionally so no I havent been on ESPN . My team held the florida state record with a 3771 series until about a couple of months ago. We did win the 2000 state tournament in Ft Lauderdale for $4300. Being a pro in bowling is too trying not enough money and away from home too much. You really have to be an elite bowler to compete on the tour.

Default lol

i'm kinda like W13rdOw on this one. although i'm not 192 but i'm 174 so i'm not that good at basketball.

i play guitar as well, played for ages but never had the talent so i've reached my barrier that i can't improve.

i didnt see the interview. i dont watch to much ESPN, although I have seen some promos for that show. i have seen Iverson play live many times though...he is definitly a good player although i dont know if he plays to his full potential. Jordan was awsome, but I can't see him as being the best. He did a lot of traveling, and they sorta changed the rules around for him, still he was great, plus SpaceJam was a pretty bad*** movie.

lol thanks for the goodluck in acting, its a tough field but i think i can make it, and if not, theres always poker right? j/k, if i relied on poker for $$ id starve to death for sure! not good enough!
