2011 Nike MAG "McFly"... #YAKToTheFuture

The internet is literally goin nuttsss over the new 2011 Nike MAG aka "Marty McFlys"!!!  Michael J. Fox's name is getting social media hits like never before!!! And sneakerheads are feeling slighted by Nike!!! hahaha, however, it's all for something bigger than kicks!!

Without being upset that these have surfaced on Ebay at prices that the common kick-connoisseur has never dreamed of paying for a shoe, think about these "McFlys" as more of the "product" a person recieves for donating to a charity.  A lot of sneakerheads are following this one for the hype, but people who probably aren't even into sneakers - but more concerned with supporting the fight against Parkinsons Disease via The Michael J. Fox Foundation - are the ones donating the racks on racks on racks for the cause.  The shoe just happens to be the way cool receipt they get to keep as a trophy in their display case, like YAK!!


As Tinker mentions in the above mini film, sneakerheads will still need to be patient and stay on the look out for the "self-lacing" version around the aforementioned date of 2015!! #YAKToTheFuture

I'll let the images and the trusted shoe sites tell the bigger story... http://www.back4thefuture.com/#!home

Fantasy Football Draft Results; Grade: B-

THE CHAMP IS HERE!!!

Welp, drafting at the #2 spot in a 10-player league was a challenge, but I don’t think I did half-bad… I got the first pick I wanted all along in Green Bay QB, Aaron Rogers… BAM!! [insert aggressive belt symbol here]… but then it seemed like it took foreverrrrrr to pick again!! SMH, watching player-by-player, big-name by big-name drop off my highlighted Pre-Draft Rankings board was wiggity-wiggity-wiggity-wack!!  Picking at #2 was cool, but having to wait until #19 to select again, just threw a monkey wrench in my whole QB-QB or QB-RB strategy.  So what else does an 11-year fantasy football veteran like myself start doing in times like these but turn the focus towards stacking up big name wide outs for trade bait!! 

In the end, I came out with a solid receiving core in Reggie Wayne, Greg Jennings, and Chad Ochocinco… two stingy Defenses of both NY teams out of the Meadow Lands… a veteran Kicker playing in a dome in Ryan Longwell… and of course, some formidable Defenders lead by the golf cart flipper and muscle mutant himself, Pat Willis...

But in all honesty... my RBs are shaky, at best… SMH.  In a game where RBs have the ability to make or break your team, I've definitely got my work cut out for me in the free agent market and on the trade-lines. 

So for now, here's my team as it stands now... drafting wise, I give myself a "B-" for now.
What do you think?

We show promise of being effective in the passing-game and hoarding in some extra points on the Defensive-end, but the unexpected always causes reason for concern.  But then again, isn't that what makes fantasy football so addictively-fun!?  YAK!

Here are a few of my "franchise" notables that I was looking to land in this year's draft but didn't quite get to... but don't worry, I'll find away to aquire a few of them back on their rightful team sometime during the season...

-Drew Brees
-Larry Fitzgerald
-DeShaun Jackson
-Chris Johnson
-Stephen Jackson
-Darren McFadden 
-Beanie Wells
-Brian Urlacher
-Nate Kaeding

So now I gotta get on the wire to make a trade or two to sure up our ground attack, but baring key injuries, we should be okay this season… see ya'll at the Super Bowl, like YAK! 

How is your team looking?
