RyE On The LeBrondown Theory


Social media was a riot with the defeat of the Miami Heat. Celebrations were had almost more so because the Heat lost than Dallas winning. And hell it could have been anyone  (Fill in the Blank) vs Miami Heat and had they won it; it would still create the same result.

I wanted to write this more so on my perspective of why The Heat, or more so why LeBron was vilified this whole season and why the world hated but I feel that has been done to death. Hell I can admit I was one of the many who hated on him. Initially I was on the fence before I started my hate but as I got into it, and with Bron Bron adding more fuel to the fire I was in full hate mode.

The reason why I'm not going to write my theory however is simply because Bill Simmons.. the best damn sports blogger/coloumn writer.... in my opinion, simply wrote it the best. Read it here:


I also have to credit him for the LeBrondown Theory aka meltdown of LeBron size magnitude. Like he said, the problem with a guy like Bron is that he has a world of potential but is surrounded by a group of enablers and sycophants. This has caused him to  pass the buck per se on what he is capable of. Never one to take the blame he always pushes it to others. In Cleveland it was his supporting cast, during the early season of the Heat formation, "it was too much expectations" and that there was a natural learning curve that needed to be take the "heat" off them (pun ehh somewhat intended).

The problem isn't entirley even his fault but how he goes about it. In team sports you don't ever call your teammates out as role players with no killer instinct. You don't call yourself King before you step out of high school. You don't take on the superstar status but want to be viewed as average. (I stopped writing on Monday 6/13)

whatever... LeBron is a Bitch hahahaha

RyE On Thoughts To Work

  • Why had my phone been blowing up all night? (Oh that's my sis and my lady friend tweeting back and forth mentioning me...)
  • Why didn't I just shut off the sound.... #grumpy
  • Wow its Philippines hot out
  • I love kids...Except bad ass kids on public transportation
  • I seriously don't understand how Asians parent their kids....
  • BAD.ASS.KIDS...lil terror bastards
  • DAAAAAMN  (shades off) #caught #fail
  • I don't care if you are gay...(that is my assumption on this case) no man should ever walk around with this thinking your making some type of ground breaking fashion statment (it was purple in real life)

RyE On #$@%*&@ Myself

Procrastination is similar to masturbation. In the end...you're only fucking yourself.



Is that how it goes? Well that's me right now. I for the life of me can not get myself to come out of this creative block. I'm working on a project that started out as a hobby/passion and now has turned into something real legit and here I am staring at the computer screen writing....this.....instead of my assignment. Granted I work better under pressure and quick deadlines so that could also play into this.

And ironically I've come to realize that I've been coasting a bit. Business has been down across the board at no fault to me or my team, but I have a lot of down time. Add to the fact that my role from doing everything to more or less just overseeing has changed my pace that its been hard to focus on old school assignments I haven't done in a while. Repetition breeds action and I guess my lack of repetition has resulted in a lack of...action.

So I'm going to step my game up and work like an intern again. Work like I'm on the come up. I've not even come close to reaching the pinnacles that I plan to reach and I'm getting far too comfy in my "slower pace let everyone else do everything." I'm going to find ways to improve myself and ultimately my business. Be better prepared and put new twists to old formula's so that the end result....doesn't leave me fucking myself  ::wink::
