Brandon Roy’s bike ride

July 28, 2008 by Dave Knows Leave a Comment

Even Portlanders who are actually Washingtonians (though that might change soon) ride bikes. Brandon Roy’s off season training includes a daily bike ride through the trails along the Cedar River near Renton, Washington. In the video Brandon waxes philosophical about competitiveness, basketball, and bicycling.

Here’s some info on Brandon’s custom bike.

How Channing Frye spends his summer vacation

July 18, 2008 by Dave Knows 2 Comments

Watching movies.

Since the end of the season Channing has posted quite a few movie reviews on his blog. He’s no Shawn Levy, but he does exhibit the ability to distill his thoughts succinctly.

On Be Kind Rewind:

I came out feeling strange. The only comparison I can make is when you get padded down by security either at a club or at the airport. You just feel like you’ve been taken advantage of. Even though you already knew it was coming, you just feel very awkward afterwards.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull:

WAIT FOR DVD should be stickered at the front of the movie. I mean, really, what the heck it was in 3 words: tacky, corny, and unoriginal.

And furthermore, my popcorn was extremely salty, which also probably made me not like the movie even worse.

Hancock:

I went in there expecting to be disappointed and came out like a little girl with a brand new my little pony. It was that good.

Wanted:

Was poop. I wasn’t feeling it. Yes, the action was cool and Angelina was looking skinnier than ever. It just didn’t keep me interested.

The Dark Night (and Wall-e):

Seriously, if you have to go beg on the side of the street for an extra $10 bucks to go see this movie, do it. Don’t waste time seeing Wall-E, cuz it sucks and was boring. If you don’t like it, I’ll slap you with a spoon.

I think it’s only a matter of time before you see Channing’s blurbs in movie ads.
