TONIGHT SON!

As many of you know, I'm not big on baseball. It's boring, there's no swagger, it's the type of game you can follow through stats and not actually have to watch. (I actually have a friend who does this....cough Wallis). Now that the C's season is poppin' off again I couldn't be more geeked. Unfortunately, I have my first major exam of the semester in MBA 502. I will be relegated to watching the Blazers/Lakers game later this evening. The Blazers are a very interesting team this year, so stocked with talent. I could see them repping the West Coast in the finals as a sleeper. Anyway, get pumped.

good to see the lakers are taking this season seriously

Here's a pretty hilarious video of Lakers' wunderkin center Andrew Bynum making it rain on them hoe's. You think KG gives a shit about this stuff?

a blog recommendation

I just thought I would recommend that you check out my friend and former Clark University colleague's blog at Mattababy.com. She's been one of the most interesting people I've met in a while. Enough with the dick sucking, here's how she describes the blog:

mattababy.com is a blog living in Providence, RI with a bad attitude and a secretly sentimental side. It covers all cultural detritus, large and small, relevant or not entirely.

fugg the american dream.

In a recent Hardvard Business Blog Post, John Quelch, Senior Associate Dean of the Harvard Business School asserts:

But underpinning the collapse of the housing bubble is a demand-side problem - the American Dream - that has been hijacked in countless political speeches from an embodiment of America's core values into a crass appeal to materialism and easy gratification.

As marketers I feel that we have a duty to tell authentic, meaningful stories. The initial conception of this American deal is that of a very authentic narratives with themes of self-actualization, pursuing our most genuine dreams and goals, and creating lasting relationships based on social equity. When one is reduced by marketers to that of a simple consumer, we are not doing our jobs, both as marketer and as citizen.
