What are some Emo, Alternative, or Indie type of brands/clothing shops besides Hot Topic? I've seen some very "different" types of emo, alternative, indie, and even gothic brands of clothing that I have seen that are very much not from Hot Topic. They just look very different and orignal types of clothing that are technically mainstream kinds. I would just like to know some lists of these types of clothings. I normally not really a gothic or emo type of person, but I consider to normally dress not completely mainstream, but I have my own orignal style. I wear what I like and expresses taste. Ranging from band shirts to button up plaid shirts. And I am not into that much Hot Topic besides the band shirts because I was into that when I was younger but Hot Topic seems so Gothic trash and not really alternative at all. I live in an area thats mainly rural, and besides Hot Topic, its really the only main alternative type of store I know around here besides something like Pacific Sun. So any information would be great! Thank you =] To BATS_fans: I understand completely what you are saying however you are completely wrong about me. See, I am not any type of real stereotype or whatnot and I do not consider myself "different" or "misunderstood" or any other general cliche that comes with the whole goth/emo appearance. The only reason I used those words to describe my slight alternative style is because that is basically what society would label me as. However honestly, I would probably be more labeled as "earthy". I just like to find those rare gems of clothing in odd places. I wear whatever I want that makes me feel good, and in that way of doing, It does make me different from most. I do not only wear black or only wear Hollister. In fact, I hardly ever wear the two mentioned. I am just me. I am a very upbeat, optimistic, searcher type of person. I am very free, and understanding of my surroundings. I do not belive in stereotyping, or believe I am "so different than those around me" or think those who do I do not think I am "so different than those around me" nor do I pity myself and think I'm so original nor do i think those who don't dare to be different are below me. Trust me, I am not that type of close-minded naive person. Even in writing this, it may make me sound gothic but I am very much not. I am very light individual even in my clothing style. Maybe, I will just be myself and find what I want, but I do belive clothing to be a self-expression and that is why I saught these different clothing style because I am a seeker at heart, and live for new things. It gives people just a slight spark of interest in me, and I let myself do the rest.

A cute girly, yet sporty, cap/hat for a girl? I've been wanting to find a cute, sporty hat to wear on days when I'm just shopping or out and about so I won't have to fix my hair or anything.

I have a rather large chest. Most shirts fit me weird or stretch out throughout the day and then look gross.? I have a rather large chest size and I wear a size small/med in shirts but it doesn't really fit my chest size. A large is huge. The shrits tend to stretch out throughout the day and look weird then. That, or they flatten my chest and it looks weird. Can anyone suggest shirts that will fit right?? I also have trouble wearing lowcut or v-neck shirts even though I really want to, I just look kind of slutty in them. I like to shop at Abercrombie and Fitch, American Eagle, H&M, Gap, Banana Republic, Pacific Sun, J Crew

Best Quality Jeans (AE, Hollister, PacSun)? So I'm going to shop for jeans tomorrow because I need some desperately. Basically, I like jeans that last for a longggg time, don't fade very quickly, and don't get holes in them very easily. I want jeans that are quality but affordable at the same time. I know that this season many stores have jeans on clearance which is the main reason why I'm buying them now. The (ONLY) three stores that I am considering buying jeans from are American Eagle, Hollister, or Pacific Sun because they have jeans on sale between $20-40 (which is about the amount that I would be willing to spend on jeans whether or not they're on sale). I've researched a bit and I get very mixed results. I know that people like to pay for the brand so they side with the one that they like because it's "popular." I am not trying to win a popularity contest and therefore don't need opinions on jeans just because they're "cool" and "everyone else is wearing them." I am too old for that... I just need opinions on quality jeans that fit well, look great, and last for a long time. Please let me know which of the three brands I mentioned is the best... rank them if you will based on fit and quality. (I'm 23, 5'2", 100lbs, and have relatively shrot legs, though I like to wear high heels so I usually get jeans that are regular length rather than short... if that helps with the fit suggestions.) P.S. I am not looking for any other brand suggestions, so keep that out. I've had experiences with other affordable brands such as Charlotte-Russe and Forever21 only to get disappointed because their jeans either fit horribly (CR) or fade insanely after just one wash (F21). Um... READ the post before posting an answer. NO other brands and only AFFORDABLE jeans. Lucky and Express are NOT affordable. NO online shopping either... I need them for this weekend since I have a party to go to and all my other jeans are either old, ripped, or too worn out. I want to look nice and wear new jeans. And I don't have time for ordering and shipment crap. Thanks swimcat... I would suggest the ones you mentioned but there isn't a Nordstrom in my area :( Thanks everyone! I will have to definitely consider AE and PacSun. I'm going there tomorrow so I'll try on both before buying them just to figure out the best fit. I've heard a lot of good things about PacSun and they have a good deal (2 for $55) so I'm definitely going there.

Why should I compromise w/my flower colors? To clarify yesterday's question, I'll bore all of you w/some more details. first, the wedding is in an air-conditioned tent, set overlooking the Pacific, in SoCal. If all goes as hoped for, the sun will be setting approx. the same time that the reception begins, hence the shades of "Sunset" colored flowers. The tent is creme colored, and will have addl. creme and gold organza draping throughout. Amber lighting, along w/hundreds of suspended glass enclosed candles will also be used to help embellish the natural sunset effect. My girls are wearing Butter Yellow, I'm in Raw silk, and I just don't see Lavender, chocolate, cinammon, Hot pink and celedon. as for the types of blooms, I was assured that all that was suggested would be available either domestically, from Holland, New Zealand etc. I do understand that some of the flowers may need to be substituted for. I'm OK w/that..My soon 2b x Fiance IS NOT PAYING for this, I AM, and theparty will go on w/or w/o him.

How are these problems with evolutionary theory being dealt with recently? 1. When a human shoe print was found smashing a trilobite, an index fossil of 500 million years ago, geologists all over the world were asked, "How could a human wearing shoes step on a trilobite when trilobites lived 500 million years ago. man didn't get here until 3 million years ago, and people didn't begin wearing shoes until 5000 years ago? At that time the idea was either aliens wearing shoes visited earth that long ago or a trilobyte shaped like a shoe fell on a smaller one 2. Professors and museum guides have actually said that we can know age of the earth's layers by the index fossils we find in them and we can know the age of index fossils by the layers they are found in. Huh? 3. An index fossil dated at 570 million years ago was recently found living in the South Pacific. 4. All over the world Petrified trees are found goung straight up through several layers of rock. Did they grow millions of years through rock searching for the sun? 5.Human embryo drawing lie of 1869

A touching story I was sent.? It happens every Friday evening, almost without fail, when the sun resembles a giant orange and is starting to dip into the blue ocean. Old Ed comes strolling along the beach to his favorite pier. Clutched in his bony hand is a bucket of shrimp. Ed walks out to the end of the pier, where it seems he almost has the world to himself. The glow of the sun is a golden bronze now. Everybody's gone, except for a few joggers on the beach. Standing out on the end of the pier, Ed is alone with his thoughts....and his bucket of shrimp. Before long, however, he is no longer alone. Up in the sky a thousand white dots come screeching and squawking, winging their way toward that lanky frame standing there on the end of the pier. Before long, dozens of seagulls have enveloped him, their wings fluttering and flapping wildly. Ed stands there tossing shrimp to the hungry birds. As he does, if you listen closely, you can hear him say with a smile, "Thank you. Thank you." In a few short minutes the bucket is empty. But Ed doesn't leave. He stands there lo st in thought, as though transported to another time and place. Invariably, one of the gulls lands on his sea-bleached weather-beaten hat - an old military hat he's been wearing for years. When he finally turns around and begins to walk back toward the beach, a few of the birds hop along the pier with him until he gets to the stairs, and then they, too, fly away. And old Ed quietly makes his way down to the end of the beach and on home. If you were sitting there on the pier with your fishing line in the water, Ed might seem like "a funny old duck," as my dad used to say. Or, "a guy that's a sandwich shy of a picnic," as my kids might say. To onlookers, he's just another old codger, lost in his own weird world, feeding the seagulls with a bucket full of shrimp. To the onlooker, rituals can look either very strange or very empty. They can seem altogether unimportant ....maybe even a lot of nonsense. Old folks often do strange things, at least in the eyes of Boomers and Busters. Most of them would probably write Old Ed off, down there in Florida. That's too bad. They'd do well to know him better. His full name: Eddie Rickenbacker. He was a famous hero back in World War II. On one of his flying missions across the Pacific, he and his seven-member crew went down. Miraculously, all of the men survived, crawled out of their plane, and climbed into a life raft. Captain Rickenbacker and his crew floated for days on the rough waters of the Pacific. They fought the sun. They fought sharks. Most of all, they fought hunger. By the eighth day their rations ran out. No food. No water. They were hundreds of miles from land and no one knew where they were. They needed a miracle. That afternoon they had a simple devotional service and prayed for a miracle. They tried to nap. Eddie leaned back and pulled his military cap over his nose. Time dragged. All he could hear was the slap of the waves against the raft. Suddenly, Eddie felt something land on the top of his cap. It was a seagull! Old Ed would later describe how he sat perfectly still, planning his next move. With a flash of his hand and a squawk from the gull, he managed to grab it and wring its neck. He tore the feathers off, and he and his starving crew made a meal - a very slight meal for eight men - of it. Then they used the intestines for bait. With it, they caught fish, which gave them food and more bait......and the cycle continued. With that simple survival technique, they were able to endure the rigors of the sea until they were found and rescued. (after 24 days at sea...) Eddie Rickenbacker lived many years beyond that ordeal, but he never forgot the sacrifice of that first life-saving seagull. And he never stopped saying, "Thank you." That's why almost every Friday night he would walk to the end of the pier with a bucket full of shrimp and a heart full of gratitude.

What do you think of my prologue? ? The air. Its swirls around me cold and thick even with the sun beating down. The wind teases leaves of gold, red, orange and brown as they fall from the trees. If the cold didn’t bite your noise you wouldn’t even know it was real. That’s what I saw when I closed my eyes. A foreign place in the fall of beauty, familiarity and cold wind. When I opened them? Well the sun still beat down. But there was a towel beneath my body and I had fistfuls of sand in my fingers. My head was in Joey’s lap and his hands were combing through my wet hair. Erin rolled on to her back next to me making sure to even out her tan. Just another typical summer day at the beach in SD, Cali. Why visions of fall, which never seemed to really come in Cali, haunted my head at the moment I don’t know. I don’t wouldn’t really care much either. If it hadn’t been in my head so much lately. At least six times a day now. Worse than one of Erin’s unwanted obsessions. The smell of salt water and sand drifted all around from the waves, only yards away. And the scene vanished from the inside of my lids. Joey, Erin, Noelle, Glen and I had headed to the beach around 8 o’clock that morning. That had been hours ago and the beginning of summer had been at least 2 weeks ago. Still almost every day my friends and I were at Pacific Beach hanging by the ocean. It was really hard to tire of it. “Joey heads up,” someone yelled. I sat up on my towel and Joey ran backwards trying to catch an orange Frisbee that was spiraling though the sky towards my friend Noelle who was working up the courage to walking out farther into the waves and dive in. no matter how warm the sun made the water the first dive under was always cold. Cold, and never expected even if you pretty much lived on the beach like we did. Joey sprang into the air for the Frisbee. He missed and landed on his stomach in the water practically at Noelle’s feet. It was Noelle who caught the Frisbee. She pulled her arm back to throw it back to a boy I think we knew from school. Was his name Tanner? Before she could I stood up and yelled, “Noel, over here!” she faked the Frisbee to Tanner who jumped to catch it realizing when he hit the sand that Noelle hadn’t thrown it to him. Instead it spun into my hand with ease. “Good aim!” I shouted at Noelle. I tossed the Frisbee in Tanner’s direction. And as I planned it sailed over his head and into the hands of the girl behind him who ran with it. Todd shot me a look and chased after her. It had been a peeved look. But I knew he wouldn’t hold it against me. Guys hardly held anything against Noelle, Erin and me. Why? Maybe because any guy would consider Noelle with her dark brown eyes, coco skin, and straight dark hair beautiful, while Erin in her red bikini, with skin like snow in the winter, bronze in the summer and country style blonde hair was a definite challenge. What they saw in me, well it wasn’t any of that. I looked pretty average to me. And yet I’m the only one who seemed to notice that. Fine, whatever, it’s okay with me. I sat down again next to Erin. I had too much energy to continue sun bathing. I poked Erin in the side. “I’m sleeping,” she mumbled. “No you’re not,” I smirked. “How would you know I’m wearing sunglasses,” she protested. I laughed and took her right hand. I pulled her off her pink and orange flower print towel and into the sand. Sighing she pushed herself onto her feet and followed me as I retreated to the water joining Noelle where the water was waist deep. The waves rolled in and I dunked Noelle and Erin under only to be held under by both of them for two waves after. Joey and Glen were surfing, Glen on long board and Joey on short board, farther down the beach. The boardwalk lurked with tourists and shops to our right. Yep, just another typical California summer day in the life of Lydia Scott. Sorry its a lot to read. I'm just wondering if i should scape it. oh and the book is about why she has those pics of fall in her head and that her normal life isn't gonna stay normal much longer. i know thats typical, but i plan to put in some twists....:) THANKS!

Why Can't I tan? I have a pale complexion and of Asian descent. I'm from the Pacific Northwest region of North America where it usually isn't that sunny, so that's why I always thought I couldn't tan easily... but in the summer time, I went to Southern California where the sun high and bright in the sky all 7 days. I spent most of my time walking around in the sunlight in Disneyland among other places. I was wearing Hawaiian Tropic SPF-8 lotion, in hopes of getting a tan. I did not get tanned at all, while those with me got quite dark (they were not wearing lotion at all).

Be harsh. Is this ok? Lauri Roberts’ arms hung loosely over a metal scrap in the Pacific Ocean. Her eyes remained closed; her breathing slow, and legs freely swinging underwater. The sun bore into her, burning her ears and neck, and giving her a slight chill. Wind ruffled her hair and shirt, propelling her forward through the ocean, with no land in sight. Her mouth opened a little to take a breath, but an upcoming wave made her instead breathe water. She choked and slowly awoke, only her eyes slightly moving. It did not last for long, and she passed out once more into the darkness with ease. As the hours passed with the waves displacing her, it was no surprise when the metal piece from a plane flew up beneath her, unable to hold her weight any longer. Gently, she sank down towards the ocean floor. Instantly, the second her nose and mouth had gone under, Lauri frantically regained consciousness, disoriented and her head spinning. She dully splashed and kicked in the water, falling deeper into the dark abyss. Her air supply began running out as she began to fear of drowning. Just before losing consciousness once again, a pair of familiar arms reached from above and tugged her to the surface. Her mouth flew open as they came upon the surface, gasping in air rapidly. Her head still pounded. Slowly, she turned her face round to face her savior, whom she saw to be her best friend Sarah. Sarah looked worn out from the simple act of pulling her up; they both were engulfed in this foreign haze- probably due to the fact that they had remained unconscious for twelve hours. She shook her head and splashed water on her face, grabbing then on the scrap Lauri was grasping. “How-how’d you find me?” Lauri asked, feeling the need to sleep once more. She stared at Sarah to remain focused. “I got up like ten minutes before you did, and saw you about fifty feet in front of me, so I…” Sarah began. Her voice cracked and she closed her eyes momentarily. “…well…while I was moving towards you, I saw a wave crash over your head and you waking up and going under. I grabbed you and brought you back up.” Tears began forming in her eyes as she spoke. She gazed at Lauri worriedly, frightened that her friend had almost become claimed by the sea. Lauri made a pitiful stroke over to her friend and gave her a feeble hug. She felt Sarah loosen at her embrace and choke out a sob. As they parted, she saw tear lines down her friend’s face. “We’re safe, it’s ok.” Sarah gave her a relieved look and her tears slowly stopped forming. It had a somewhat sentimental and cheesy air, yet, the words were needed. They were trapped, stuck into this unknown world, and needed each other if they were going to have any chance of leaving this place. The two survivors looked around at the empty expanse of sea surrounding them, except for a lone island that appeared a few hundred feet away. Sarah found her voice. “...That looks like our only option.” “I guess so. I’ll lead.” She kicked her legs and off they went. As they swam, the island itself appeared more frightening with each stroke. Large trees hung ominously over the island, seemingly hugging the vegetation on the ground. Clouds loomed above, with lightning streaking the skies. Thunder rumbled and clouds twisted. They sky seemed engaged in an inner war, throwing potshots at its other end. Lauri involuntarily gulped.

how could you improve this ? what shall i do ? it all started with a boat trip -a simple short trip around the pacific ocean .In like what seemed a huge boat as big as the titanic ,does'nt sound too bad does it ..? Wrong! We were at our site eating breakfast and i saw my mohter lunging over the table then proudly waving a blue leaflet."Guess what kids,were going on a boat trip." "Oh no ,". And like many people whove seen titanic in their lives i definately wasn't that eager to go ! ...But my mum persuaded me to go . We approached the beach and climbed onto the boat .Half way through the journey,after being screamed at by a woman 'afraid of the sea' and drowned like a rat by ocean spray, i was definately ready to get off this piarate ship. Until...we saw magnificent ,outstanding indescribable cliffs towering over me like sky scrapers you could see the clouds at the top with eroding rock falling in to the ocean, rippling the water. We approached a small bay and scurried off the boat eager to explore the island.Taking hundereds of mental pictures of this picturesque place hoping i could capture this moment forever. We walked along the white sand clashing with the crystal blue glimmering ocean that sparkled like diamonds, rockpools scattered along the bay. Sun burning my face yet giving me a healthy mediterannean glow. I ran in a baywatch mannor into the rockpools and splashed the clear water into my face refreshing myself from the heat it felt like i had been in the desert all day .All though i loved it at 5 oclock the glimmering ocean i saw moments ago turned to choppy waves , sending me chills of cold wind reminding me of how far away from home i was . The boat pulled up and i tumbled on .The boat was swiched with a cheaper imitation. I walked along the cheap tiles and seen an enchanting blue glow so...like any other intrigued teen i went to investigate! I stumbled down the stairs my heart racing as i walked into a small plain room with a bench .if i laid down i was head on with the fish and old bits of food people have thrown in to the sea.i watch as a wotsit gets thrown into the water and tens of fish flock to try and get the crisp like tiny vultures. The trip wore on and drifted off to sleep ,once i awoke i seen the waves crashing against the side of the boat i felt a surge of sickness overwhelm me .I look up and see my mum and younger brother still sound asleep on the sand ridden flooring.I walked up the stairs and walked over to my nan hoping she'll tell me a quick fix remidy for my sickness. She said the best thing she could ,"hurry up ...were getting off soon" ! So i walked back down into the little blue room and woke up my family . We hurried up the stairs and my mum walked to the back to get our bags .My little brother and sister were persistant on getting to the front of the que so i ran with them into the que, we barged through the people and scrambled off the boat ,tonnes of tourists flocked off the boat so we scurried to the shallow end of the pier away from the photo scavanging animals, suddenly...my little sister yelped ,"wheres nan and mum,".I went on my tip toes so high my foot was cramping but still no sign of them . Now searching in desperation i charged through the tourists and got to the other end of the pier .I looked up sheepishly and to my suprise...see my mum and nan still on the boat , totally taken aback . They were waving . They thought the boat was just straightening out then coming back. it went back then turned right . I felt my lips quivering uncontrollably as i felt warm tears streaming down my face.I pleased with the young girl for what seemed like hours .She looked at me nicely and spoke to a male attendant nearby i felt a glimmer of hope then.... they laughed in my face they didnt care about some english children they never met before why would they ,i felt like a knife went into my heart .What was goin to happen ,the sky turned a dark shade of grey , Would we be kidnapped,would i ever see my family again? The girl bundled us into her small car and not even knowing where i was going she took us to the next dock and suddenly as i see the boat pull up the sky changed to a warm purples orange and yellows and a comforting breeze swept across me. I was so happy to feel safe again and am sure i never want to go on a boat again . im 14

Astronomy Assignment, In need of assistance. Can anyone help? ? Mariners in the 1700's had an enormous problem: as soon as they were out of sight of land, they were lost. This limited exploration of the seven seas, and led the government of England to offer a 20,000 prize (over $1,000,000 in today's money) to anyone who could develop a method by which sailors could locate their position at sea to within 30 miles. This was won in 1762 by an English inventor, John Harrison. Imagine now that you have just crashed on a deserted island, located somewhere in the pacific. Pulling yourself out of the wreckage, you discover that your entire stock of Civilized Goods amounts to the following: a) One Timex watch set to Cobleskill Time b) One axe c) One protractor (used to complete Astronomy Labs when travelling) d) One globe of the World e) 500 pounds of crunchy granola bars f) 100 pounds of nails g) One copy of Navigation For Dummies h) One (now seemingly worthless plane ticket good for March 21, 2006 You sit down, eat the first of many Granola bars, and consider your circumstances. If you can figure out where you are on the map, you can build a boat and head towards civilization. But how do you figure out where you are? You open the worn copy of Navigation For Dummies, and are greeted with the following cheery thoughts: Navigation is easy a) Latitude lines lie parallel to the Equator. Lines of Longitude run North-South. b) The Earth takes 24 hours to swing through 360 degrees of Longitude. This is equal to 15 degrees/hour c) The axis of Earthly Rotation is tilted 23 1/2 degrees from the Ecliptic. As a result, the height of the sun at noon varies with the season. The amount of variation over a year is given by the Analemma (the figure 8 on the side of the globe) The rest of the book is mutilated beyond recognition. So, there you have it, Figure out where you are (your latitude and longitude), or die from overeating granola bars. How do you do it?

The Definition of Flight 24? He’s Beethoven Bryant… Now Hear the Music! By Ted M. Green | Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers, Column You wouldn’t think a man who seems to have everything would need anything. You wouldn’t think a man loved by millions might need a friend. Kobe Bryant has oodles of talent, tons of money, a pretty wife, beautiful young family and the respect, if not unconditional affection, of most of his peers. So what could a man with all that possibly need? Oh, just understanding, appreciation and, finally, an end to the hating. Understand what, you say? That he is the best player in the NBA by eons and quite possibly more skilled than even Michael Jordan. Appreciation? Yup, by finally naming him MVP of the league. And hating? That’s right, it’s time to put a merciful end to the petty envy and ugly jealousies, time to stop holding Colorado over his head, time to stop penalizing him because he’s ridiculously gifted and kinda comes across like he knows it. It seems crazy to me that for every Kobe jersey you see in arenas around the country, for the millions of Number 24’s that are worn in China, there seem to be an equal number or more who refuse to give this generational treasure his just due. I’m not talking about naming him to All-Star teams or All-NBA first teams or even paying him the 20 mil or whatever it is he makes in salary each year. He’s earned all that. I’m talking about recognizing how hard he plays, how hard he works to make his teammates better, how he leads by words and example. The rap in the past that he didn’t make his teammates better? Bullfeathers. He passed to them. They missed. What was he supposed to do, shoot it in the basket for them? Look at the Lakers now: If you don’t think Jordan Farmar, Sasha Vujacic and Ronny Turiaf are all light years better than a year ago, you’re just not paying attention. Heck, playing in the backcourt with Kobe, Derek Fisher at an age (33) when lots of guys are fading, is having a career year, with all-time bests in every shooting category. Coincidence? Not hardly. I’m also talking about how when it comes to being The Closer, Kobe makes Kyra Sedgwick look like a helpless little girl. Look under “4th Quarter� and Kobe’s probably got a copyright in the government patent office. Know what? Forget all that. What I’m REALLY talking about is, for Kobe’s detractors, the haters, to drop the pretense and stop the posturing and just admit that as a shooter, driver, finisher and defender, as the ultimate basketball Jedi master as we speak here in the late winter of 2008, Lebron James with all his Nike marketing power and funny/cutesy Old Man commercials, can’t hold Kobe’s jock. Or gym bag. Oh, he can hold it, all right, but only if he asks real nicely. By having the b*lls to light a fire under Laker management and calling them out last summer when they were derelict in their promise to put a team around him; and then, by putting those unkind words and bad blood behind him as if it never happened once he hit the court in November, never shortchanging his employers with his herculean efforts; by maturing into the kind of leader who pushes and encourages his teammates instead of scolding and demeaning them (see Andrew Bynum); by scoring points as if they’re bunches of grapes; by making more highlight plays in any given game than most other so-called superstars make in a month; by hitting hundreds of shots that make you shake your head and wonder if he’s even human; by leading the Lakers to the top of the Pacific Division and third best record in the NBA when many experts had them as an eight seed or worse; and dammit, by still playing like a genius virtuoso with a pinky finger that is so broken and mangled, a top hand specialist recommended immediate surgery; for dropping 41 on the Suns in Phoenix with a freaking half-broken shooting hand!; for all those reasons and probably 100 more I haven’t thought of, Kobe Bean Bryant has finally earned the unconditional respect and admiration he has never quite received from a public that has never embraced him with the same affection they showed for MJ and now the new darling of Hip Hop Hype, Bron Bron. I’ve got your Bron Bron right here. It is absolutely incomprehensible to me, but yet fully expected given the history of Kobe Bryant, that not one major national NBA writer, far as I know, has been smart enough, fair enough or honest enough to come out right now and say what is now startlingly obvious: That if Bryant isn’t the MVP this year, that award needs to be put on the shelf forever, never to be dusted off again. Know who the other candidates are this season? KG? Nope, been hurt. Lebron? With 26 losses in a conference that is dreck? Sure, whatever you say. In other words, there are no other candidates, not in the no-spin universe free of East Coast bias that I live in. In the real, un-spun NBA, it’s Kobe’s world and everybody else is just living in it. And if you don’t believe me, ask the players. Trust me, they’ll tell you. Now I’ll be the first to admit: I’ve always respected Kobe, appreciated him, understood his athletic genius, but I never quite embraced him, either. There is, inarguably, something cold, clinical and a little too detached about his public persona, and his postgame sound bites. There is something, the hard edge, that slight chip on the shoulder people perceive, that does stop many fans from feeling warmth for him. But that’s Kobe’s vibe. It must be how the real assassins roll. Turns out that off the court, Kobe is giving, outward reaching, socially aware and generous with his time; he’s warm with kids, busy with lots of community and charity work that never makes the papers. In fact, he wants it that way. But from this point forward, let me suggest to the haters that it isn’t Kobe’s fault some clever Nike marketer never had him be the one to dive into the pool or play four different characters including a grumpy old man. MJ, he gambled, caroused, [Swearing is not permitted at Clublakers. You must edit this post prior to submitting.] teammates, smiled at all the right times, became Nike’s Jumpman, hit the very last shot of his Bulls career to win his sixth and last title (I can still see it in my dreams in slo-mo, the pushoff on Bryon Russell, as if it happened five minutes ago)…and now Michael, his Airness, lives in our hearts forever. Let me be the one to suggest to the haters that if you don’t begin realizing that a true basketball Beethoven is passing your way again, Kobe Bryant is going to be gone before you had a chance to genuinely enjoy and embrace the show.
