Why I love Cleveland...

One of the many reasons I love Cleveland is for the sports. Everybody knows Cleveland is full of die-hard fans, itching for any kind of championship. Not only are the Cavs going to take it all (knock on wood) because the team is that good, but they are filled with some funny ass dudes i.e. Shaq, LeBron, and now Delonte West. This video will never get old.

HOT SAUCE IN MY BAG!

Moon Shoes!!!

It don't get any more early 90's than this! Me and my brother C.J. used to have a pair of these and when we got them we thought they were the coolest things ever. Little did we know that they were going to break within a week or two! A bunch of the black rubberbands just started snapping on us, haha.

And for some reason just seeing this reminded me of the Pogo Ball.

Richard Jefferson no show for wedding???

Well we have become TMZ now, not really but I thought this was funny when I seen it. Apparently Richard Jefferson decided to call off his wedding with his fiance Kesha Ni'Cole Nichols days before the wedding. The only problem is the guest's were not informed and showed up to the wedding wondering where the bride and groom were. Come to find out that the wedding had been canceled leaving them with no wedding nor explanation. Although he did give his friend his Amex Black credit card and told him to take out the guests and show them a good time without him there. Take a look at the two together below.

Vans x Acapulco Gold Vans Moda Hi Sneakers

Vans combining with Acapulco Gold will be releasing these Moda Hi's next March. No specific time given or price. As soon as I spotted these it was an instant post and purchase. The color way is perfect, with a nice green and grey combination. Although I am a fan of the classic low top, the Hi design will work just fine for me, take a look below.

-Diamond Dave
Here we present an exclusive look into the second part of Vans’ upcoming East vs. West Pack, which will feature design efforts from Los Angeles-based Crooks & Castles and New York natives Acapulco Gold. This latest installment finds AG working on a pair of the newly developed Moda Hi model, fusing the classic SK8-Hi and more fashion-forward Mountain Edition Hi. The kicks boast a mix of suede and leather uppers on a clean white/green colorway, with various Acapulco Gold details throughout. A release is scheduled for March 2010.
