#NBAWithdrawal

Welcome to the “New” Blog!

So, What exactly is NBA Withdrawal? It’s simple! It’s how you respond to this long Offseason.

For me personally, my off season includes: Reading (Harry Potter, FictionPress, my Chick Porn [aka crappy romance novels]), Writing (for my blog, my story) , Partying (I’m young what do you expect) , job-hunting, sleeping and most importantly, Twittering! If My parents (YES, I said parents) hadn’t got rid of Raps TV for my ‘health’ I would be watching that all offseason.

So I took the question to the Streets (Read: Twitter) and dug through some tweets to find these gems:

@FollowMeLoL: My #NBAWithdrawal is perfectly fine. Football season is right around the corner =)

@RapsFan: re-runs and classic games on Raptors TV ... that and twitter

@Raps_fan: ummm...twitter, RapsTV..and sadly - baseball lol

@GaganGandhi: No Leafs and no Raptors makes Gagan sad.

@Docfunk: I left my house for the first time since October. I am busy gathering nuts for next season.

@HPBasketball: Anybody know when the NBA schedule gets annnounced? You know, so I have a reason to live?

@the_tigercub: OK, gonna read Harry Potter again.

@DeeNLen: I've started a Meth Lab in my car to pass the time! LOL

@jeskeets @Tasmelas LOL

Stay Strong NBA Fan 3 more months. There is so much to catch up on in life and this is your time! Use it!

Thank you those who helped in the renaming of my blog. Believe it or not it meant a lot to me! It was hard picking 5 possible names out of 33 (More then I thought possible), but it was done! I’m thankful that the final decision wasn’t up to me but up to you! So don’t blame me, blame the Tweeps! Name Change and new URL will be in affect by Tomorrow. All the artisty and design stuff will have to wait because I don’t how to do that.

We’re almost there!

Ok, I must admit I got lots of cool, creative and eye-catching names. It was very hard to narrow it down to just 12. I was supposed narrow it down to 5.However I got 33 entries and crossing out the other 21 names were hard. So here’s the list so far:

  1. Explosive Drive
  2. Smooth Release
  3. Through the Legs
  4. Opinionated Slam
  5. The Chaundamentals of Basketball
  6. Chaunie’s Court
  7. With A Hand in the Face
  8. Go to Girl
  9. CB Floor
  10. She in the Key
  11. Kiss the Glass
  12. 24 Second Chaut Clock

If you think you got something better than these, let me know. By Thursday/Friday I should have a new title! =]

Thanks to those who co-operated!

Chaun NEEDS a new Blog name

Ballwe

Actually I wouldn’t even call the current name, a name. It’s blah and and it’s not eye catching.  You know it’s bad when it’s pointed out on Twitter.

When I created this blog, the last thing I was thinking about was appeal. I just wanted to keep my writing going during my 4 months of break from school.

But no, I had to join Twitter and put my blog out there. So now I’m stuck with having to fix it up and make it appealing to the human eye. I’ve already changed to main picture up top, but the title still sucks.

There are cool titles out there like Third Quarter Collapse, Poasting and Toasting (SB nation blogs). Foot on the Line is another good one that is catchy. There are so many blogs out there, and 1% of them are named after the Author (Calculated roughly by Chaun).

SO, with the help of @RaptorsForum (aka he brought this up) We’ve (he) come with the idea of getting my ‘readers’ to help me decide a name for the ‘blog’. It’s got to be creative and interesting and it can’t be RaptorsBlog because I think there are 5 of them out there. So help a sister out! Hit me up on Twitter or comment here!!

Remember Chaun loves you!!
