Transformers

I think I already told you that when I did an interview in NY they asked me what the next movie I wanted to see was. Transformers was just about to come out and so I was dyin to see it. Well Paramount Pictures read the article so they called David Eglehoff at Ohio State to see who to contact and set it up so I could get a private screening in NY. My schedule was mad crazy but one of the guys who works for me got it done, so I saw it right before we left to go to the draft. I only had like 2 and a half hrs of down time so we really only had about 25 mins to get ready, but the movie was great. Paramount hooked us up with some gift bags and I'm still rockin the Optimus Prime keychain. Thanks again to everyone at Paramount, especially Lisa for working with my schedule! Here is some video of me talking about the movie?

If you ever played with Transformers as a kid, you might want to check out Terryphunk. He's a Hip Hop artist that rhymes about old toys, especially Transformers. And Remember GregO, Defense, Defense, Defense......

G.O.:

I never thought I'd catch an athlete talking about Transformers in public, but this blog submission cements you further as my favorite athlete. B-Roy is a close second however, as is Donovan McNabb.

I'm going to the game against Houston in P-town. PLEASE DUNK ON YAO!!!!!!!!!!! hahahahaha

Go Blazers

  Definitely. A bi-weekly spot where Greg takes on the best and worst of film and acts out the most memorable scene from each movie. I love it.

  thats something to think about in the future

Only one reason to see Transformers......TYRESE GIBSON! He is so fine!
I remember watching the cartoon growing up with my lil brother. I even had one of the toys, it was the autobot that turned into a boombox!

Sometimes I forget that you're only a year younger than me and you probably like a lot of the same things I do... It's nice to see the human side of athletes, because sometimes people forget that they are just normal people... In this case a normal person who is 7 feet tall and is really good at basketball...

Halo isnt a very good game...Im more into the sporting games.

Greg, you should try NCAA Football 07...They have a new recruiting system and stuff...But IDK if you can afford it or not...Blazers pay players pretty cheap huh? lol
