Jalen Rose Is A Gamer …

From the NBA.com homepage today:

Knick Jalen Rose is about to take his game to a whole different level. The avid video gamer will compete in the inaugural season of the Hip-Hop Gaming League (HHGL) along with such music impresarios as Method Man, B-Real and Tyrese. HHGL action begins this spring and concludes in May with a live Finals event in Las Vegas presided over by commissioner Snoop Dogg.

Yeah, here’s hoping that the game they play is World Class Track Meet on the Nintendo Power Pad. I mean, come on — Jalen Rose battling Paul Wall in the 100m dash? Wow…

    Paul Wall is a gigantic fatass for those who haven’t met him in person.
    since when is Tyrese a musician???

    can we take up a collection and buy you the rights to thebasketballjones.com

    I am sick of inadvertently going to the wrong website. It wouldn’t be so bad but they don’t even have a page…

    or maybe that is you guys…who knows.

    Nope, the “.com” is not us. Should be though. I love your collection idea — let me go find a plate to pass around.

    Skeets, I expected better from you. What’s this “up down up down” garbage? That won’t get very far at all.

    Woah, slow down…

    30 Lives: UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, B, A, B, A at the title screen.

    Infinite Lives: UP, DOWN, UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, A, B, A, B, Select and then Start at the demo screen.

    But you’re right, I should’ve used THE Konami Code …
