Overwhelmed at the massive amount of love for me in the aftermath of such a direct bitter envy driven overt act of disrespect on public medium. The least I can end with saying, is THANKS Y’ALL 🤠 ✊🙏🤝🙌💰
Since I am so fond of the number 5️⃣, and my Twitter mentions have gone cerebrally wild receiving such insurmountable support, I’ll close out with five words and an emoji: God is in complete control 💯
Can’t count how many times this week I strung together the sequence of who had steal or block, rebound, assist, and of course scorer (announced first) and throw it all in one call. So meaningful for the kids who haul hell out there every damn play on the court to hear 💯🙏
Announced my first 🏈 game(s) since Nov. 30th of 2019. Three games total today for

Muir & Pasadena. Loyola & Harvard-Westlake. & stints in varied sports at Farfax, Franklin, Chaffey, Serra, Birmingham, WashHouse, Redondo, La Cañada, Burbank, Maranatha, Damien, Palisades, alma mater Gabrielino & GOD knows how much more elsewhere. I must be doing something right.
All is well and all is forgiven. The feud is over.

Champions League 🏈 as an announcer. Having covered 11 games over the inaugural weekend and consecutive 15’s the last two weekends, the Sunday morning opener will be my 50th game 🗣🎙‼️
Several games into MLK Day 🏀🎤 work at South Pas on Monday I noticed the soles of my decade+ Melo Js had tore/eroded open down to exposing my socks. I needed a quick fix; Crossroads was one of the games upcoming, so I knew to ask for Coach Muhammad! THANKS

Schools battling for my services, having to come down to a decision that will disappoint many when I can only pick one & I am inclined to pick w regard to my best interest (top $)...I swear to Lord God I’m in this for the wrong reason. Y’all have NO IDEA of the guilt I feel.
Closing in on being awake for a 22nd hour in a row after weathering 9 games (7 of which had at or over 30 total fouls...four of those had 40 or more fouls. There was a 2OT game in there too) as combined PA announcer & official book. To say that I'm gassed is a VAST understatement
