You can't have better tacos, than the place that came up with tacos.

The team!

Awesome trip. Besides the fact that it was constantly 115 degrees plus. I must have lost like 12 lbs of water weight. I've been on mission trips before but I think I learned a lot more on this trip than my others. Obviously wasn't the MAIN reason but one of my reasons for going on this trip was to grow as a person. One of my main goals in life is to never stop growing and becoming a better human being. It shouldn't take a mission trip for me to realize how fortunate I am, but I often forget. There are really people that live in mud houses. Its not some urban legend. These people literally have close to nothing, and here I am screaming, tweeting, facebooking FML because my coke is diet and not regular.  Remember no matter how bad you think your life is, some one has it ATLEAST...500x worse than you. 

sidenote: I am looking for a non- profit organization that I can donate a bunch of shoes and clothes to. I don't want to just dump it off at the Salvation Army or Good Will or something like that. I'm looking for a non-profit that I can create a relationship with and continue donating and working with. Somewhere I will actually make a difference. If you guys know of any holla at me and I'll look into it! LET ME KNOW! LET ME KNOW! THANKS!

"MONEY TEAM!!"

"....people fail to realize, when I faced Marquez, I was 2 years off just vacationing and traveling. I took 2 years off. No working out or other activities. But I still went out there and looked marvelous..."-Floyd Money Mayweather

I don't watch too much boxing, but you don't have to be an expert to know who won that fight. Manny's previous fight against Marquez that ended in a draw was WAAAY closer than this one. I have never seen Pacquiao get boo'ed like that. And don't give me that oh there's more Mexicans in the arena, because he has had fights in Vegas before. Nobody is going to throw a fit or hate on Pacquiao if he clearly won the fight. He is one of the greatest! People are going crazy because they all sat there and watched the same fight you and I did. You could tell right after the final bell rang, Manny truly thought he lost the fight. He was pacing around the ring shaking his head. You could see it all over his face. I'm not saying it was some overwhelming victory for Marquez, but he clearly outboxed Manny. It sucks because Marquez had a gameplan. He went out and successfully executed the gameplan, and then the judges are gonna tell him that he wasn't aggresive enough. But that wasn't his gameplan. So basically they're telling him he lost the fight before it even started....

Everyone is bashing Mayweather saying he is a pussy, he is scared of Pacquiao, hes ducking Pacquiao. Let me ask you a question. Who is a bigger pussy? The man that won't step into a ring with Pacquiao without random urine and blood testing or the dude that is scared of a f**king needle???? Ok, eons pass and Manny finally agrees to do the random blood testing(only because he knows he will eventually HAVE to) but Bob Arum won't do it with the USADA because he doesn't think its a neutral organization. He says,"We have agreed in the Pacquiao camp to unlimited random testing done by a responsible, neutral organization. We don’t believe USADA is a neutral organization". Bob you think the Olympic Organization is trying to scam you bro? IT'S JUST A TEST TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE NOT CHEATING BRO. THE DRUG TESTING ISN'T THERE TO DESTROY PEOPLES CAREERS!(I don't know whats a bigger red flag than not agreeing to take a test that sees if you're cheating or not) Here's the way I'm looking at it. Say you are a CEO of a company and you offer a deal to a client. The client look's at the deal, spits in your face and says "We will never agree to these demands!" and then 3 months later they come back and say "Alright fine...we'll take the deal..." You, as the CEO of that company, what are you going to do? Are you going to welcome them back gladly with open arms? "Welcome baaack!! So good to see you! We have the deal right here waiting for you!" Of course not. There's going to be some conflict there. Same thing with Manny-Mayweather.  Mayweather offers the deal, Pacquiao refuses, comes back waaaay later and agrees to the deal. Guess what bro? the deal is GONE!

 Mayweather is not ducking him by making these drug testing demands.You guys see Muhammad Ali. The sport of boxing did that to him. I've seen a interview with the great Joe Frazier (R.I.P) in tears saying "I did that to him....I did that to him."Mayweather just wants to make sure he's not stepping into the ring with some juiced up maniac that could possibly permanently damage his brain!!!! Say they fought without blood testing and Pacquiao just beats him to a pummel and damages him brain. But later it is discovered that Pacquiao WAS on roids (not saying he is, just hypothetically). Who is going to take responsibility? Yeah shame on Manny for cheating but who is going to fix Mayweathers brain???? Nobody!!

Here's a interview with Mayweather on the Pacquiao-Marquez fight. Supposedly he didn't catch it because he was at some club in Virginia.(I'm pretty sure he watched the fight)
"I mean, the fight could've happened the way it happened, and he could have looked the way he did, because someone is slowly changing so they can prepare to fight me. They KNOW they're going to have to take the random urine tests and blood tests..."(there are 2 parts)
So now, with Bob Arum already going after a 4th fight with Marquez, all I have to ask is who's ducking who?

P.S. why HASN'T Manny been to the olympics??? oh I think you all know why.....lol

"man shuffle this dick #$%##$%!!!!"

A:"Ohhhh my gaaad! yeah! I'm so @#$%-ing drunk!"

B: Oh hell yeah! we don't have to freakin have any rhythm for this!"

"THEY FINED ME 35,000??? WHHHY KEEEVIIIN!!!"

Why are players fighting over money if this is how they're gonna treat it? lol

"MYYY NINJA..."

Today I got pulled over by a police officer. I wasn't doing anything wrong, but if you know Vegas the streets here are terrible. You could be driving in your own lane and then 2 seconds later youre in the middle of 2 lanes. Anyways, I swerved a little and of course, motorcycle cop RIGHT behind me. I pull over and it's an African American officer. He says "Why did you swerve back there?" I told him the truth, "You can barely see the paint on the floor."(kind of giving the "give me a break" tone) He goes "Are you sure you werent on your phone?" (they just passed that law here like last month.) and then I was so just so nervous I don't know what came over me. I blurted out "On my momma!" It was probably the fact that I really was not on my phone and I was being completely honest and I just wanted him to believe me so bad. Anyways, he gives me a little chuckle, takes my license and registration, comes back with it, and he says "Imma let you go. I believe you for some reason..." Thanks BROTHER*pound chest to peace sign*.

"Rihanna's ex-boyfriend..."

 My friend came over after work today and we were watching T.V or whatever...and then he tells me the most hilarious story ever. He is a manager at a restaurant inside of the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas. He tells me that Matt Kemp came into his work today, and I was like "The baseball player?" and he assured me it was Matt Kemp of the L.A. Dodgers. He walked in and sat down with 3 casino hosts, who basically take care of rich people in the casino during their stay, and his girlfriend, small attractive latino girl. After their meal one of my friend's servers, a mexican guy, brings him his check and this is how their conversation went.

A:"How would you like to charge it sir?"
B:"Can you charge it to my room?"
A:"Yes sir. I just need your last name?"
B:*stares at him for few seconds*".....You dont watch baseball?"
A:"Of course sir. I apologize. I'll get that taken care of right away."
B:"Bet you'd know my name if I was a SOCCER player....."

HAHAHAHHA what a racist! AND his bill came out to like 220 bucks, and he left 20 bucks for tip! grimy bro....grimy....

Now that O'Neal is retired and a full-time media personality, he's written a new book about his life and career with the help Hall of Fame writer Jackie MacMullan called "Shaq Uncut: My Story." Not surprisingly, there are several stories about Kobe.

"So I'm on edge because I don't have a new deal, and Kobe is on edge because he might be going to jail, so we're taking it out on each other. Just before the start of the '03-'04 season the coaching staff called us in and said, "No more public sparring or you'll get fined." ... Phil was tired of it. Karl Malone and Gary Payton were sick of it. ... So what happens? Immediately after that Kobe runs right out to Jim Gray and does this interview where he lets me have it. He said I was fat and out of shape. He said I was milking my toe injury for more time off, and the injury wasn't even that serious. (Yeah, right. It only ended my damn career.) He said I was "lobbying for a contract extension when we have two Hall of Famers playing pretty much for free." I'm sitting there watching this interview and I'm gonna explode. Hours earlier we had just promised our coach we'd stop. It was a truce broken. I let the guys know, "I'm going to kill him."

Kobe stands up and goes face-to-face with me and says, "You always said you're my big brother, you'd do anything for me, and then this Colorado thing happens and you never even called me." I did call him. ... So here we are now, and we find out he really was hurt that we didn't stand behind him. That was something new. I didn't think he gave a rat's ass about us either way. "Well, I thought you'd publicly support me, at least," Kobe said. "You're supposed to be my friend."
Brian Shaw chimed in with "Kobe, why would you think that? Shaq had all these parties and you never showed up for any of them. We invited you to dinner on the road and you didn't come. Shaq invited you to his wedding and you weren't there. Then you got married and didn't invite any of us. And now you are in the middle of this problem, this sensitive situation, and now you want all of us to step up for you. We don't even know you." ...
Everyone was starting to calm down when I told Kobe, "If you ever say anything like what you said to Jim Gray ever again, I will kill you."
Kobe shrugged and said, "Whatever."
[...]He was so young and so immature in some ways, but I can tell you this: everything Kobe is doing now, he told me all the way back then he was going to do it. We were sitting on the bus once and he told me, "I'm going to be the number one scorer for the Lakers, I'm going to win five or six championships, and I'm going to be the best player in the game." I was like, "Okay, whatever." Then he looked me right in the eye and said, "I'm going to be the Will Smith of the NBA."
My first Lakers season we had a couple of rookies, and we hazed them pretty badly. We were dogging them out constantly. It was "Go get my bags, go get me something to eat." It was kind of a rite of passage in the NBA that a lot of teams do, but we probably went a little too far with it. One of the rookies—Derek Fisher(notes)—just took it. The other rookie—Kobe Bryant—ratted us out to Jerry West."

This is about 80% of why I hate Kobe. He does scum bag things to his own team mates...he will dismantle a team to be the focal point, he will go tell his daddy what the bully did to him at practice that day, he will (and this has been proven OVER AND OVER again) publically demean his team mates. This guy has the nerve to be unfaithful to his wife, and instead of apologizaing to his team mates and organization, he throws a fit because they won't "publically" support him. Everyone is bashing on Lebron for leaving Cleveland. Kobe threatened to do the exact same thing! The only difference is, the Lakers actually did something for him and Cleveland didn't do anything for Lebron. Laker fan's are so oblivious to the fact that Kobe made a complete ASS out of himself after Shaq left! He tells management he wants Shaq out. They ship out Shaq and give Kobe his own squad. Then he gets bumped out of the first round of playoffs for 2 years in a row by the Phoenix Suns and he threatens to bail on them! Then they have to pull Pao Gasol out of the magic hat for him. Laker fans are so high on Andrew Bynum, but Kobe was the one sitting there in front of a recorder and he said, and I quote, "Ship his ass out of here!".   I'm not doubting his skill, he's a legend. Everybody knows that. Think about what Kobe did to Shaq. If Pao Gasol just came out talking mad shit about Kobe and said "Yo I want my own team, I want to be the focal point, and I want the team to run through me." How would you guys feel? Thats exactly what Kobe did when Shaq was there. This is not Kwame Brown he's beefing with here. He has the AUDACITY to do this to Shaquille O'neal! The greatest big man ever to play the game. 3 time Finals MVP 2000-2002. Yeah, I'm sure it was their "friendship"  that went sour. Come on you guys. He was tired of being in Shaq's shadow. He was tired of being Robin. He was tired of not winning any finals MVP's. He couldn't wait a couple more years. He needed to start his reign then and there. Whatever Kobe.....whatever....do you. But you and I both know you sexually assaulted that woman in Colorado.
