Jeremy Lin Basketball Academy

What do you call two Mexicans playing basketball?

Juan on Juan! hahah (this is my fave joke ever!)

So I played a little bit of ball this past weekend. And boy did I suck. I even challenged someone to play HORSE with me! I guess that's what happened when the last time you ever dribbled a basketball was when you were in 6th grade! In case some of you have not heard of Jeremy Lin (um, where have you been?!), he’s a local guy who used to play basketball at Harvard before signing with the Warriors, and is one of the few Asian Americans in the NBA. Also a cool fact about him is that he attends the same church as my friends and we used to volunteer at the same non-profit organization in East Palo Alto! I feel a connection.

This is not really a deal but a support event (similar to LOVE Japan). My friend just told me about Jeremy Lin's basketball academy. For those of you with school-age boys or know any school-age boys, you can send them to JLin's basketball camp this summer! What, no camp for adults? He will also be at a sports memorabilia store in San Mateo the last Saturday of the month, 4/30 from 3-5pm to sign autographs.

(Thanks PYS!)
