    I use to ball back in the day.. Run with the LAKERS players at the UCLA athletic center in westwood.. I got offered to play pro ball over seas as well.. Turned it down because I got home sick.. Played Pete Samphras in high school in tennis and got worked, also played against the best pro beach volleyball players back in the day and held my own.. I was really good at all sports but a master of none...

    I swear this on everything.. I'm not lying... I wish I just concentrated on one sport growing up.. Very athletic and strong.. Still good to go today at 49 years of age.. Ran few miles today, did stairs and lifted weights..

    I'll post a vid one day when I get time and learn how.. Might shock you guys.. Jibs got it going on.. Check me out in the UFC section this weekend and win money.. I'm dialed in now with MMA... I'll post pending..

        No I was to busy bulling the nerds like you ...

        I shouldn't have posted that about me.. I'm a jerk and show off with that.. Not me... I like to fly under the radar... Never again.. I know better... My bad... Not a forum diva and could really care less...

          Blake Griffin and a date were eating dinner right behind the bar where Elton John was sitting. I just happen to be there that night with a few buddies. Blake had to take a double look at me to see if a was a baller, 6'6" 240... Elton was just chilling and drinking some fruity cocktail alone and getting no attention...

          True story I kid you not...

          Sure enough though he was wearing a colorful suit.. This wasn't a gay bar either just for the record. He did look old though...
          Peeps were probably just leaving him alone. Amazingly somehow

                  3 years of touring good luck Elton.. That's all I have to say about that.. Either bored or broke to try that at his age.. Need endurance and youth to survive a tour like that... Dude is 70 years old...

                      Not one person spoke to him the entire time I ate dinner from what I saw.. People did leave him alone.. Not sure he wanted that being at a public bar alone at night time.. Still can't figure that one out???... Maybe I should have said hello and Congratulated him on a great career.. I hate approaching celebrities though as most want to be left alone....

                      I was more interested in Blake Griffins date at the time anyways.. She was hot...

                            First time I had seen EJ was with Billy. Awesome show.

                              Billy is the better piano player, EJ is the better showman.
