That Benji Wilson Story on ESPN

[Walt]

This doc just made this "Sing About Me" song resonate that much more than it already had for me. So much street essence in that doc, from the funky ass voice his homie had, to all the hoop legends, the crisp cuts as well as the hideous ones, the school scenes, the old school cats shooting pool at the house, r fukking kelly... Damn.

u never pull a gun and not use it...u gon get killed...aint no oh im sorry g, i wasnt thinkin when i pulled out on u benji woulda put one of those future nba checks on that nikka head

but yea man this shyt is so sad; the worse part about this doc is that little huddle they had with his ppl where those old dusty aint shyt nikkas were sitting there like "yea man, benji was our ticket " fukkin fakkits they aint care bout that man and 30 yrs later still dnt

The latest Air Jordan 1 will pay homage to Ben “Benji” Wilson, who was a Simeon High School basketball player who was tragically killed at the beginning of his senior year. He was one of the top players in the country before his untimely demise. Jordan Brand will pay tribute to the local legend with this commemorative AJ 1.

The shoe is draped in the Simeon Wolverines school colors of blue and yellow throughout the upper. There are also the words “Wolverines” and Ben Wilson’s number embroidered on the back. No word if these will release to the public, so stay tuned to the latest updates

This reminds me of when Sean Taylor died

Especially the way the news trickled out....

"he'll be fine and should be back in a few weeks"
"he'll probably miss the season"
"The situation is worse than expected"
"He's in stable condition heading into the night"
" Sean didn't make it through the night"

 

[Flight]
