I think everyone had a "Darrin Hudson" in their lives. Darrin Hudson was in my high school, back in Marlboro, NJ. You know, that person that you had to one-up all the time. Didn't matter what it was: Gear, hair, grades, sports, whatever...it was ON. Well for Darrin and I...it was kicks. Plain and simple. Oddly enough, in a school with over 1000 kids, me and him were the only 2 really into sneakers back then. This is my blog dedicated to Darrin. This is to tell Darrin that I'm still out there, and if he wants to battle, here it is son!! Bring it!! I've since lost touch with Darrin, but thanks to him, you all get to check out the kicks I have amassed over the years. So it is here, that I will archive every pair of shoes I own. It’ll include detailed photos, a grading system, a little tidbit behind each one and every single one will be available for purchase. (Simply POST A COMMENT with your offer). Some other little goodies sprinkled throughout also. Even if I updated a different shoe every week, it would take me about 3 years to complete this project. So sit back and enjoy! The project begins January 1st, 2006...

Lam (Barneys) and Jon (K-Swiss) treated me to the recent exhibition match between Pete Sampras and Roger Federer at MSG. Roger Federer won the game but needed 2 tiebreakers. Many said it was fixed to create excitement. Regardless, even if it was...it was an entertaining match.
Lam(Barneys)とJon(K-Swiss)がMSGでのピート・サンプラス対ロジャー・フェデラーとのエキシビションマッチに招待してくれました。フェデラーはタイブレークを2回も制して大会を優勝しましたが、これは盛り上げるための八百長では?との疑惑がありました。そうであったとしても、とにかく面白いマッチでした。

Best part of the night? I got to sit right up close with John McEnroe as he announced the game. Definitely one of my early childhood heroes.
その夜の一番の見所?解説を務めていたジョン・マッケンローの近くに座れたこと。彼は僕の幼い頃の憧れの一人。

Dude, what's this talk of you biting your own shit and making a pigeon shoe for New Balance? I thought you just shitted on Reebok for that. I really hope NB just bit the Nike Pigeons b/c you're always complaining about the lack of creativity out there.

is it true? if it is, i think it's acceptable. i mean, it is YOUR trademark. you have the right to market your own style.
