As many of you know, the Air Jordan 2010 officially releases this Saturday, February 13- meaning it falls in the middle of the NBA All-Star weekend. Therefore, Jordan Brand is taking advantage of the timing and hoping everyone gets to enjoy its 23/25 energy space as it continues to celebrate 25 years of Air Jordans. From this Thursday, February 11 to Sunday, February 14, you are welcome to visit 2350 Victory Park Lane in Dallas Texas (adjacent to W Hotel Victory Park) between 11:00 AM and midnight to enjoy several Jordan Brand treats. Included in the festivities are a Jordan shoe gallery, ID23 customization, visits by the likes of DJ Bobbito Garciaon February 13 and Rich Medina on February 12, performances by the likes of Wale, Bun B, and Jadakiss, and much more. It appears to be a great way to both celebrate the past and ring in the future.

Chamillionare’s epic Michael Jordan Story

Reko Trill — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 01:54:30 +0000

About a week or so ago H-town’s own Chamillionare had the chance to meet one of his boy hood idols. Well, I don’t think he was super happy about the end result. Which is the main reason I personally don’t worry myself with being star struck. Especially with athletes. I’m a Kobe fan all dizay but hell, I’d prefer to just sit on my ass and allow him and the rest of the dudes on my TV to entertain me. That way my pee pee won’t get hurt. Cham brought more evidence to the rumor that our man MJ can be a “Richard” at times. Of course this is only one side of the story.

See the video here.

Oh, and by the way, I’ll be damned if I give up rocking my Jordans.
