WADE-BOSH-BRON

espn_u_boswadjam_576

WOW! Dwyane Wade is staying, Chris Bosh has arrived and LeBron James is on his way! Who would’ve ever predicted a year ago that these 3 All-Stars would be playing for the Miami HEAT!?

While Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade had made their Miami announcement yesterday…I wasn’t convinced LBJ would be joining them. I guess in my heart (and being an NBA fan,) I couldn’t help but think LeBron in NYC was best for the game…plus I like the Knicks coaching staff (PHX alums) – BUT I am happy he’s in Miami and going to play for the HEAT!

I drove by the American Airlines Arena shortly after the announcement where fans were honking and celebrating in the streets…they also had the ESPN special airing on the gigantic mesh screen on the front of the arena… The news vans were stacked up along Biscayne BLVD and there is a vibe of new life in the Magic City air!

So, it seems South Beach will now be HOTTER than ever..and maybe I gotta figure out a way to stay…honestly I had felt like I had outgrown Miami, but this is incentive to try and grow my role with the HEAT and HEAT TV. Regardless, expect to see me and my boy Burnie in the stands come game time! 🙂

Welcome Channel “Sports”

One of the outlets I produce and host for is called The Welcome Channel, and their programming runs in thousands of hotel rooms in South Florida on a loop so look for it next time you visit! Here’s a look at a couple of the segments I put together for them on the Miami HEAT and Florida Marlins!

Listen to my VOICE

Here are a few more of the segments I’ve been voicing over for the Miami HEAT…the Karaoke package is a MUST see, with the Miami HEAT players singing up a storm! From James Jones and Michael Beasley singing their version of Usher’s You Got It Bad; to Dwyane Wade and Dorell Wright teaming up for R. Kelly’s I Believe I can Fly; then Daequan Cook doing his rendition of Beyonce’s Single Ladies; and finally a team effort on Boyz II Men’s End of the Road!

And next time you attend a Miami HEAT home game listen up, you might just hear my voice!

Into the Rafters

The Miami HEAT honored Tim Hardaway at the 2009-10 NBA Season home opener by retiring his #10 jersey into the rafters! Now, I didn’t go to the game for that purpose, but I sort of grew up on Timmy since he did so much for my beloved hometown Golden State Warriors, so it was cool to be there and experience it, considering I don’t think they showed it on TV!

Actually, it’s sort of hard for me to think of him as a HEAT guy, because to me, when I think Tim Hardaway, I think Golden State WARRIORS – you know Run TMC…the McDonald’s “Tim and Chris” burger or was it “Chris and Tim” Burger!?! lol

They held the ceremony before tip-off of the NY Knicks vs. Miami Heat game, and there were several notables present on the floor surrounding him, like Chris Mullin and Alonzo Mourning, who also happens to be the only other HEAT player to have a jersey hanging in AAA! They also produced a great video reel of Tim, highlighting his NBA career and raised a HUGE jersey up, along with confetti and a standing ovation!

I attended the game with a few of my Miami crew. Shouts to Rene who was a soldier coming to the game, even though she has to get up for that early morning (news) shift at 3am!

One more thing…can I just say I <3 the HEAT Street Band!? I really enjoy their live music and tonight they had us “Swag and Surf!” You gotta luv it! 🙂

Cool Gear for the School Year!

I attended “Cool Gear for the School Year” hosted by the Jason Taylor Foundation at Old Navy today! It’s such a great event giving 60 deserving children from South Florida a $300 shopping spree….AND they get to shop with athletes and celebs! So many of the Miami Dolphins current players came out to support the cause and a few alum were also in attendance. I even got in the spirit with DJ Laz from Power 96 calling me out to do the “stanky leg” …we’ll see if that makes the video highlights coming soon On The Flipside!
