Runnaway Lebron returns Home! King of the Kingdom

It didn't hit me till I was at my Sports Bar last night, #MancaveUltimate (best Sports Bar in Los Angeles ) #shamelessPlug
The magnitude of maybe the number one Sports Story of the past 5 years. Definitely the biggest sports story of the year. In case you have been under a rock, Lebron James made "the Decision" 4 years ago to take his talents to South Beach. This left Cav's Owner Dan Gilbert with a tirade that was reminiscent of Toby Escaping the Plantation. Except instead of getting his foot cut off Lebron made 4 final appearances and raised up (2) banners and 2 MVP's solidifying his legacy as a hall of fame champion with the Miami Heat. Yesterday Friday July 11th 2014 Lebron James made an even bigger decision.

"My relationship with Northeast Ohio is bigger than basketball. I didn’t realize that four years ago. I do now." With those words, LeBron James, the reigning King of the NBA, announced his return to his hometown Cleveland Cavaliers. The news came via a Sports Illustrated article written by King James

This is how huge this is! Not only did the Billionaire owner Fly down to Miami in his private Jet, he praised Lebron James Via Twitter, I'm almost certain he begged him, and possibly kissed his royal ass.Overnight Lebron made Cleveland the biggest sports town in the universe. Lebron Inc. will now have a piece of the action in his own State. The young man is not even 30 and the Marquee reads "The King returns Home". In a year where we saw a possible black eye with the negative remarks of former Clippers owner Donald Sterling regarding the "culture" This is a tug and a pull at the "Veil" of the culture.

Many regard Lebron James recent decision as a sign of low character and some type post slavery psychological return to the plantation. This couldn't be further from the truth. This is Fredrick Douglas Returning to his plantation to set the captives free. This is the Return of the King, its biblical even but not prodigal son, more like Messiah returning to the people. Lebron James has more character than any player we have seen in recent history. Not only does he have a future in politics but he will be able to create industry and sway even an entire election if he chooses. If you still are lost and don't see the Value stay tuned! you thought Magic Johnson Ran LA. Lebron James truly is the King and in a league of his own!

Sports Noire: 10 Most Shocking Sports stories of 2013

Another year has come and gone and it all happened so fast! I was discussing with my wife how fast the time had gone. I wanted to keep a great file on the events of the year and start the top 10.

Here is number.....

10. Chris Weidman Retains UFC title Breaks Anderson Silva Leg in 2!!
In what looks like his last fight Anderson Silva known for his Domination of the UFC light heavy weight division. Was involved in a freakish block that broke his leg in 2 pieces.

9. Dwight Howard bolts Los Angeles for bigger dreams in Texas

In what was suppose to be a super marriage made in heaven, Dwight Howard seem to have had his fair share of life in the big city!!  the Georgia Native never fit in during his first season with Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers organization has long been a destination for stars seeking to grow their brand and watch "ShowTime" come to life. With Less fanfare than the decision Dwight Howard Found himself in TEJAS !!! before Phil Jackson could even take Dantoni's job. #freeAgency #lakeshow #philjackson #NBA #SportsNoire #DwightHoward #KobeBryant #Hollywood #Rockets #Houston #Astros

8. 2013 MLB Steroid Suspensions and the squeezing of A-Rod August 2013

In recent years we have all seen the fall of great a many athletes to steroids and PED accusations. In a precedent set by major baseball they suspended over 13 players with 50 game suspensions. The most notable suspensions came from (2) two men Milwaukee Brewers Ryan Braun who vehemently denied the allegations until he finally came clean with his come to "Jesus Moment. "( insert praying hands emojii) This guy! Milwaukee Brewers star former MVP Ryan Braun, has long served as the face of the MLB’s BioGenesis investigation. Braun’s acceptance of a 65-game suspension legitimized the evidence garnered from Bosch's testimony and BioGenesis’ records, and all but ensured that A-Rod would face a similar, if not lengthier ban of his own. In my opinion the most egregious offender for the past decade in the World of sports was finally awarded the largest suspension in Baseball History the $400 million dollar man Alex Rodriguez, AROD, the DARK KNIGHT, the Dominican wunderkind is appealing his 211 game suspension. This should probably have its own archive but I will report on this matter in detail going back all the way to his Texans days but for now. A-Rod has even admitted he used PED's long before BIOGenesis' came to surface, that's the real problem here. A -Rod is a liar.. here is his email excerpt courtesy of New York Post: 

“Can u please stop!!” Rodriguez wrote to Levine on Aug. 3, according to the magazine. “I want to play baseball and I could make a big difference to the game. [George] Steinbrenner would roll in his grave IF he knew what was happening! Stop, Randy, this isn’t going to be good for any of us!! You are a businessman and what you are doing is ruining the business of baseball. If u want to meet in person to discuss it, let’s do it!” 

Two days later, Levine reportedly responded.

“I received your email, the contents of which are a complete shock to me,” Levine wrote, according to the magazine. “As I have repeatedly told you, this is an MLB investigation. We had no role in initiating the investigation or assisting in the direction of the investigation.

“Despite your continued false accusations (which you know are false) we have acted consistently. My focus and direction, as well as that of the entire Yankees organization, has been, and continues to be, to treat you in the same manner as we do all of our players, to have you healthy and ready to play as soon as possible. Good luck.”

That same day the 211 day suspension was handed down for his involvement with BIOGENESIS he is still fighting the suspension. #MLB #Baseball #suspensions #steroids #FreeAgents #SportsNoire

7. Concussions and Settlement August 2013
In what I say is only the beginning the NFL made a record settlement with the various players who were mentioned in lawsuit. This was important as many of my clients and friends play in National Football League. I hope to see more prevention and a greater care in how athletes are protected with the advance of textiles and Nanotechnology we will begin to see more advanced protection for athletes over the coming years. The NFL has reached a tentative $765 million settlement over concussion-related brain injuries among its 18,000 retired players, agreeing to compensate victims, pay for medical exams and underwrite research.#NFL #Concussion #headInjury #relentless

6. The Catfishing of Manti Teo

In the most Strange Football NFL story of all time.. Manti Teo went from being belle of the ball to Internet pervert. It was painful to watch this kid squirm when asked by Katie Couric " did you have a hand in this" Listen we all know that boy knew him, and Lenny would ride off into the sunset. I don't have to recap this mess. As strange as it is, soon as dead spin announced this story I was like "WHATTTTTT???? c'mon son" Teo says he has moved on from the situation and is now looking to help Chargers make it to Super Bowl

5. Lights Go out During Superbowl.

As a big time Madden fan I hate even playing on the sticks in the "Voodoo" Dome. Last Jan we saw in live fashion why the New Orleans Super Dome is haunted. Call it the ghosts of all the people who died during the 3 day waiting period of the FEMA response to the citizens of New Orleans. Everyone has there theories I have man. Needless to say the Ravens WON and the rest is history but it was a great game and exciting time despite the outage.

The Last 4 stories I didn't particularly  want to rank because they are so shocking that some one may be offended by the order of importance. However, I know you will recap and recall these events.

4. Lance Armstrong Stripped of his 7 Tour De France titles and lifetime ban of sport

This one I can not lie, I never believed it would have happened I thought that it was a witch hunt but.... #fromthefile #DUH #Doper #Roids #NoLanceNo

"Armstrong's interview with Le Monde was surprising on many levels, not least because of his long-antagonistic relationship with the respected French daily that first reported in 1999 that corticosteroids were found in the American's urine as he was riding his way to the first of his seven Tour wins. In response, Armstrong had complained that he was being persecuted by "vulture journalism, desperate journalism."

Now seemingly prepared to let bygones be bygones, Armstrong told Le Monde that he still considers himself the record-holder for Tour victories, even though all seven of his titles were stripped from him last year for doping. He also said his life has been ruined by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency investigation that exposed as lies his years of denials that he and his teammates doped."

He went on Oprah to clear his chest and come to the lord. ehh who likes bike riding anyway.


3.Presumed Murderous Oscar Pistorious

When I was a Kid I saw all the movies and never did I imagine I would be able to witness the real life blade runner! During the 2012 London Olympics like most my Mumm was so impressed by the South African Duestch "wunderkind" that she would call me proclaiming how amazing he was. Never in a million years did we imagine he would be on trail for Shooting his model girl friend. Mr. Pistorious is scheduled back in court March 2014

2. The injury of Kobe and Return all in 2013
With only around 600 points until he passes the GOAT Kobe Bryant tried to carry his LAKERS to the finals playing in a must win playoff game he tears his Achilles tendon. King Kobe Returned this Fall only 8 months from the tear. ***Update*** Kobe is out for 6 weeks with fracture to his tibia. He is also scheduled to start All-Star Weekend. Kobe is still recovering but is optimistic about his future as a Laker. Rest Well Kobe #Kobe #KobeBryant #KB24 #BlackMamba

1. the Boston Marathon Attack
This was probably the Most Horrible of All events that happened in the history of sports. I want to focus on the solidarity that came out of this sad event. Boston Salute for standing strong despite, the forces of darkness who try and damper that unyielding human Spirit. The United States is a place where you can get back up start over again no matter what the trials we face. I started to see more people running and 2014 Boston Marathon will be the biggest yet! Happy New Year everyone!! #Boston #Boston Marathon #Resolve #motivation #Multisportking

Kobe Bryant a laker for Life!!!

Alsmost year to date of tearing his right achillea the "Great one" ( as I call him) practiced today for 45 min. This is a big step fwd and the Black Mamba is ready to return to action!! With is Laker ball club  at 9-9 hanging with a very Good Portland team in a loss last game 114-109 missing Nash, Farmar and Kobe. These guys look good, however it's a long season ahead. Kobe Bean Bryant his legacy, now can be cemented as greatesr Laker and if he ties or breaks Michael Jordan Chamionship legacy, it will be hard not to not make him the greatest or in the room. 

Meditation

I have been meditating for around 6 years. It's something that I enjoy and allows me to center my soul. Many don't consider the soul consciousness or subconscious mind in their daily living because we haven't been taught about the soul. I will save that lesson for another post. Meditation is connector of the soul mind and body. Try closing your eyes and emptying your thoughts to have a pure mind. Allow gratitude for all that is present. Shut off the chatter. When I'm having trouble I use the PSiO Mindbooster it's a way to increase productivity and release stress. NFL athletes are using it to release stress for pre game and after hard practices.

RIP Paul Oliver

Former UGA standout and Former NFL Safety Paul Oliver was found dead of an apparent suicide in his Marietta, Georgia home.

 Paul Oliver spent the majority of his time as a San Diego Charger with 144 tackles in 57 games. This is a crucial time to analyze the minds of players and former athletes when they leave the sport. What goes into the mind of an athlete that has played at a high level and then one day the final whistle blows and they aren't prepared for life after the sport. I didn't personally know Mr. Oliver however my heart goes out to his family. I pray for his widow and 2 children and send nothing and peace their way. It's awful that we have to continue to see these athletes suffer. Many may consider this a society issue I consider this a sport and life issue. We need to be in charge of our minds, the body cannot live without the mind! -Zip Gould #christConsciousness #zipgould #multisportking #chargers #nfl #brandKing #peace #mediation

Why journalists know nothing about Football! Half time #VickVsRG3

Watching my fab sports show today ESPN First Take I was listening to predictions talking about how the "Redskins defense would shut down Vick and hit the gaps." We'll the score is 26-7 Eagles and Vick has been electrifying. It's almost like he has been reborn! Chip Kelly came in from Oregon with this high speed attack and its so fast if you blink you will miss it! I mean Shady McCoy has 100+ yards and Desean Jackson a 100+ yards. On top of the fact RG3 had thrown 2 picks. The surprise of the night is the Philly Eagles Defense they have been lock down the Redskins. So to all the pundits who speculated what was going on! This is a great game! Current score 33-14

 

Mind blowing!!! My product review of the PSiO Mind Booster 1.1

When I first saw my email about this product I was immediately skeptical. As a person who actively meditates I didn't believe electronic devices could aid you in mental clarity do to the electro magnetic waves devices give off. I tried the PSiO Mind booster everyday this weekend. I tried several controlled environments, morning and evening.

The device is light weight and has multiple settings to play various feed backs. I won't list all the tracks but my fave is focus attention. I woke up renewed and full of life each day I used the PSiO. The stimulus had my subconscious mind aligned with my intention to make improvements. In the weight room I was fired up and exceeded all my reps. I kept hearing the phrase replay in my mind "nothing can stop me". 

There are no side effects to the PSiO mind Booster! It's An amazing product I look forward to seeing this product on my athletes. This product is for students, athletes and anyone who needs a competitive boost that will take them over the hump.

Touted as one of the top 10 products at NY’s Consumer Electronics Week, PSiO is pioneering the new age of meditation! This new technology, is the first and only all-inclusive Audio Visual Stimulation system backed by years of clinical research.

Equipped with earphones and high-tech electronics that use MP3 files to synchronize sound with light, the audiovisual stimulation glasses overstimulate the brain to eliminate brain chatter. The user is taken on a psychedelic odyssey into a state of relaxation, in which their mind is maintained at the edge of sleep. This type of consciousness has been known for over half a century for its positive effects on memorization, information management, integration and recovery. With PSiO’s numerous pre-loaded programs, users are able to take advantage of this low-thought point to work on areas of personal development and enrichment.

Please let me know if you’re interested in learning more about PSiO.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Fear the Dreads! The coming of Jahleel Addae

The first weekend of NFL football is in the books. Tonight I will be present to watch the Houston Texans and the San Diego Chargers battle it out for the home opener on Monday night Football. This game is special I get to watch a young ballet in Jahleel "Hitman" Addae. Addae is a safety who was signed undrafted Free Agent right after this years draft, don't let that fool you. Addae is a beast and was the anchor of his college defense at CMU last season. This kid is explosive at the point of impact. The Chargers featured him in different packages during pre-season. Look for Jahleel to make and impact on special teams and I are him as an early fan favorite for pro-bowl selection! Tonight lets watch the "Hitman" do work! As his fans say Fear the Dreads!!!!! 

NFL settles a $756 million dollar concusion suit

Wow! Well I don't have much to say, I guess maybe that Junior Seau maybe can rest in peace. This brings some closure to the longest case in NFL history! Lets hope this brings some families the help they need.

The Final Cut! Making the 53

This is the last week of preseason for the NFL and it has been a wild ride. Injuries have plagued many teams. Take for instance the Buffalo Bills... Rookie QB E.J. Manuel was in the brink of becoming the starter, now him and veteran journey man Kevin Kolb is also out leaving unseated free agent "nevaheardofem" to start in his place. I can go through a list of injuries on teams specifically amongst skill players. This should tilt the balance of power in the league. However we can recognize that when it comes to making roster it will take more than the injury fairies to secure your spot. With football being a 100% unpredictable sport you have to prepare to be infinitely flexible. So as teams make their final roster cuts. My advice to rookies (and veterans like Josh Cribbs and Braylon Edwards ) is to maximize each opportunity, treat your first like your last! Each game will pass and if you look up it will be all over! Make the most of your journey and be sure to trust in the most high God to order your steps! Keep pressing! #NFL #MultisportKing #ZipKnows #ZipGould #Preseason #Fantasy #FearTheDreads #Rams #Speed #SportsAgent #Sports

The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. Well the Elohim is with me and I intend to bend and grow my mind, body and spirit into a place I have never known.

Bradley Cooper, Zimmerman and the Race for America

If you have been watching the American National media for the past few weeks you know that the country has been deeply divided over the George Zimmerman/ Trayvon Martin Trial. Well right in middle of this mess Riley Cooper (not to be confused with Bradley Cooper from the Hangover movie) #14 Eagles Wide receiver goes on an expletive tirade saying "i will fight every nigger here" to a African American security guard in June during a Kenny Chesney concert. Now I wasn't  there but of course the video is all over the web. I won't link it here because I don't particularly care about hate. I care about looking at the imbalance across respect and decency toward common man. Now in a time where young black men have a clearly no fair advantage in enjoying the right to live free in America. You hate for a guy who plays football in an American city, with a black majority and a black mayor to use this ignorant language. I'm only reminded of the $100k fine levied by David Stern on Kobe Bryant for calling a ref a gay slur and bitch. Now Kobe Bryant had no clue of this referee sexual orientation. He merely said a derogatory term but not a personal attack. Riley Cooper has a preconceived notion that all blacks are niggers or atleast the ones he wanted to fight. This past Friday Riley Cooper was excused from the team only to be back with team today. His teammate Eagles Running Back Leshawn Mccoy told CSNphilly.com “And then we’ve been playing for three years, and something like this comes out, I think where a person thinks that the cameras are off and nobody is really watching, you let your true side come out, and I think that’s what happened. I think it’s a matter of him actually getting caught."

Do we even matter anymore? Is there no respect for the African American ancestors of the slaves who were forced to this country? We didn't ask to be in America I woke up and was born here. I woke up to the nightmare of the sheet and the hood. My grandfather was murdered by the klan! I woke up to the word NIGGER! So in America when house negros and "Uncle Tom" (go along to get along negros) sympathize with the oppressive mentality. We have a race problem in this country and we can ignore it. I know the radical move that can change that problem. We have to be in love with ourselves more than any hate. We have to love our neighbor more than we hate their ideaology! We must be bound to love! It's time to wake up and unify. Hate must not prevail! Hate only spawns hate! #noHate #zipGould #muktisportking #eagles #love #mikeVick #dog #pitbulls #racial #racism 

The Revenge of Mike Brown

According to sources the pariah Mike Brown (who I thought would be coaching at a YMCA in Corpus Christi ) has reportedly reached a 5 year ($20 Million) with the Cleveland Cavs. Byron Scott was fired last week.

Earlier this NBA season Mike Brown was fired by the Lakers after losing their first 5 games. The people of Los Angeles had seen enough from this Cub Scout. Coach Brown was replaced with a corpse name Mike Dantoni who beat out the greatest coach of all time in any sport Phil Jackson for the coveted job as Lakers head coach. We whatever happens I wish Mike Brown success. I just want to know.... Who's knee caps did this guy suck to get his job back????

No Weapon!!!!!

It was amazing the run both the Baltimore Ravens and the San Fran 49ers! All in all, the Ravens led by future hall of famer Ray Lewis won the. Super Bowl!!! This was an amazing game and now that we have seen the High lights! We know that the power was out which led to a surge by Colin Kapernick (my frat brother) but it wasn't enough.

I love how Ray Lewis submitted his petition to The Lord. The leadership that he instilled was comparable to ancient times. And he was right No Weapon formed against me shall prosper aNd everything that's against me that doesn't line up with God. The Lord will make it now Down!

It's been a while!

Ok So its been a while! So much as changed I was bummed over the setback of not putting together a fighting try for London 2012. It's not that it didn't mean anything to me, it's just that I was finding me. Finding something only to surrender it is a matter of serenity and balance. I possess a poise, a confidence that I never knew was possible to have, all my days are amazing! God has shown me a perspective in his grace. for that I am grateful!

Now for the update! via Twitter before season that Baltimore Ravens led by Ray Lewis would be going to the Super Bowl. I also said that the 49ers would go, both 2 of my favorite teams. so next week I am going to be turned up!!

Road to redemption

When I set out to create this blog it was part commentary, part diary, part therapy. Since my first post I have done my best to be open and provide a pure perspective. Nothing's changed, this past year was full of excitement and a few setbacks. Mainly branches. Branches of thoughts, distractions, and people. Branches of indecision, which move to make. I'm proclaiming to the world on this day... I will never let branches hold me back again!

Benefits of training with Creatine

What is creatine?
Creatine is an amino acid (amino acids are the building blocks of protein) which is made in the body by the liver and kidneys, and is derived from the diet through meat and animal products. Creatine (creatine monohydrate) is a colorless, crystalline substance used in muscle tissue for the production of phosphocreatine, an important factor in the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the source of energy for muscle contraction and many other functions in the body.

What does creatine normally do in the body?
In the body, creatine is changed into a molecule called "phosphocreatine" which serves as a storage reservoir for quick energy. Phosphocreatine is especially important in tissues such as the voluntary muscles and the nervous system which periodically require large amounts of energy.

Why do athletes take creatine?
Studies have shown that creatine can increase the performance of athletes in activities that require quick bursts of energy, such as sprinting, and can help athletes to recover faster after expending bursts of energy. Creatine is best for the serious bodybuilder. It helps increase muscle mass, rather than muscle endurance, so itís not well suited for athletes participating in endurance activities. However, the increase in muscle mass may be due to water retention and not an increase in muscle tissue.

Why have I been hearing so much about creatine and neuromuscular disorders?
Two scientific studies have indicated that creatine may be beneficial for neuromuscular disorders. First, a study by MDA-funded researcher M. Flint Beal of Cornell University Medical Center demonstrated that creatine was twice as effective as the prescription drug riluzole in extending the lives of mice with the degenerative neural disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease). Second, a study by Canadian researchers Mark Tarnopolsky and Joan Martin of McMaster University Medical Center in Ontario found that creatine can cause modest increases in strength in people with a variety of neuromuscular disorders. Beal's work was published in the March 1999 issue of Nature Neuroscience and the second paper was published in the March 1999 issue of Neurology.

I want to start taking creatine -- is it safe?
For the most part, athletes haven't experienced adverse side-effects from taking creatine, although recently there have been a few reports of kidney damage linked to creatine usage. No consistent toxicity has been reported in studies of creatine supplementation. Dehydration has also been reported to be a problem while taking creatine.

Athletes generally take a "loading dose" of 20 grams of creatine a day for five or six days, then continue with a "maintenance dose" of 2 to 5 grams of creatine a day thereafter.

What are the side effects?
Little is known about long-term side effects of creatine, but no consistent toxicity has been reported in studies of creatine supplementation. In a study of side effects of creatine, diarrhea was the most commonly reported adverse effect of creatine supplementation, followed by muscle cramping.18 Some reports showed that kidney, liver, and blood functions were not affected by short-term higher amounts or long-term lower amounts of creatine supplementation in healthy young adults. In a small study of people taking 5ñ30 grams per day, no change in kidney function appeared after up to five years of supplementation. Muscle cramping after creatine supplementation has been anecdotally reported in some studies.

Support during slumps

As any athlete knows there are times when we go through slumps... I have been there. But how do you support your child when they experience slumps. My son had a game today they got blown out 22 -10 before halftime the score was 16 -0. Before game it was somber because my son hasn't been at practice due to illness, so pre game I just gave him a few things to work on, so he would feel calm. He rebounded well had 6 rebounds. During game its important to stay positive and focus on reinforcing his/her motivation.... after game just hug them and support them and if the game was less than stellar focus on highlights!
