Pat Riley the head coach in Miami heat officially announced that he will step down as a head coach and instead contribute more as the new President. HEAT Managing General Partner Micky Arison and Riley jointly announced that former Assistant Coach/Director of Scouting Erik Spoelstra has been elevated to head coach. Spoelstra becomes the sixth head coach in franchise history.
Erick Spoelstra is the first Asian who have become a NBA head coach and is the youngest of all active coaches now in the league, he is 69 days younger than the second youngest head coach, Lawrence Frank of the New Jersey Nets. A 1992 graduate from the University of Portland, Spoelstra was the starting point guard for four years for the Pilots and was named the West Coast Conference Freshman of the Year. After college he spent two years as a player/coach for Tus Herten, a team in the professional sports league of Germany. And for your information, he is half Filipino, his mom is Filipina from San Pablo, Laguna, so that means another opportunity for the Filipino to prove that we are globally competitive in the game of basketball. I hope next season of the Miami will be good and will have a great comeback from this season.
Last Wednesday, actress Maegan Fox was named as the world’s sexiest woman in the FHM magazine’s annual online poll.

This is a video of Kobe Bryant with Rony Turiaf. As you can see Kobe Bryant attempts to jump over an Aston Martin and wearing a NIKE shoes. He was successful tough but the question now is, is it FAKE or REAL??
Do you think it’s real? No its not!. Although this is not impossible with Kobe Bryant. We’ve seen the high flies of the court. Kobe and Nike then said in an interview that its fake and it can be done in a video editing. This is just one way for Nike to advertise and its a nice one and it gather 2.5m hits!. And one thing the Lakers would not allow or risk Kobe to this for real. Like KOBE said “ITS HOLLYWOOD BABY!” Happy Viewing. Yeah!
At first I taught this was just a joke because the one involved is a mascot. You know mascot are just fun to watch and all they do is just make things that people enjoy. But this time Barry Anderson who’s inside the mascot made a mistake. After holding the hands of a fan and fell forward, hyperextending Kalant’s arm and rupturing his biceps muscle, according to the lawsuit filed in Cook County Circuit Court, the fan which is Doctor Kalant stayed for the rest of the game but later had surgery and could miss as much as four months of work. This happened on February 12. The lawsuit claims Anderson was negligent in either “falling forward while grabbing a fan’s hand” or “running out of control” through the crowd.
Wow I’ve been waiting for a new album from Salvador and here it comes. It is entitled “Aware” and it is available now in stores. This is expected to a nice one and will make some big sales just like their previous albums. By the way Salvador is a Christian band that blends their Latin heritage and contemporary pop songwriting. The band began with Art, Nic, and Josh Gonzales as part of the worship band in their home church located in North East of Austin, Texas. So that’s all and I can’t wait to listen to the new tracks of their new album.
