"I Be Thinkin"

"I Be Thinkin"

BEVERLY HILLS (MI) -- One of my favorite Twitter follows is comedian Mr. George Wallace. George is usually seen wearing his “I Be Thinkin” beret and philosophizing in his own unique and irreverent manner on a variety of current affairs. To wit:

Shout out to the top 5 markets in the world, stock, black, super, Boston and this little piggy went to.

Real talk, not enough rap songs discuss the pros and cons of high speed rail.

People straight up gettin' pregnant during this halftime show and whatnot

Shout out to the top 5 villes in the world, Nash, Louis, Margarita, vaude and Cruella de.

I'll straight up buy a Toyota at a marathon and a mare at a Toyotathon I really don't give a sh*t anymore.

You can watch a video of George’s show from the Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas for free on Amazon right here:

All of which is a roundabout way of saying that “FTS” has been doing some thinkin’ of our own, which is always a dangerous thing. Here goes:

— I do believe this in-depth article by Pete Thamel of Yahoo Sports is the best profile on the #5 Dayton Flyers that has been written to date:

-- Obi got top billing on this piece by NBA Draft analyst Jeff Babcock on players that elected to return for another year of college rather than entering the NBA Draft:

-- Obi One is at the top of the list for National POY according to Jeff Goodman of Stadium:

-- This video posted on Twitter by Obi’s mom Roni of his brother Jacob tells me one thing: the young man is going to be a problem for A-10 opponents in the years to come:

-- The folks over at VCU Ram Nation are not overly optimistic about the upcoming UD game:

Nice of them to pin a link to the UD Pride MB at the top of the thread, tho.

-- Did you know there are college Junior Varsity Men’s Basketball Teams? Neither did I!

-- Flyer Faithful favorite Red Panda is featured prominently in this ESPN piece on college basketball's growing group of halftime entertainment acts:

-- This dude Brad Davison from Wisconsin is trash. Someone needs to, oh I don’t know, maybe punch him in the package as payback:

-- “The Sweet Tweet of the Week” comes to us from Jeff Goodman of Stadium:

Dayton NPOY candidate Obi Toppin on why the Flyers can cut down the nets in Atlanta:

That’s it “From the Swamp.”

While I’m sure Red Panda is awesome, the best halftime performance I’ve ever seen was Niagara hoopster Calvin Murphy twirling a baton. I believe he was a former National Champion in baton twirling, and could also dunk even though he was well under 6’ tall.
