when I was in high school I used to work at a pet store, although 2/3 of the store was saltwater and tropical fish. I used to fill my bed room with so many tanks the windows always had condensation on them and my mother had concerns about the floors giving out.

Also there were like 3 Mikes (imagine that) in my gang so someone dubbed me fishmike. It just stuck.

Yea.. I still have fish, although married life and overall domestication has me down to 1 tank

Interesting! I was wondering what it meant.
If you like that one, you gotta search the internet for Mitch Hedberg jokes. He's hilarious...

Here's another:

"I don't have a girlfriend. But I do know a woman who'd be mad at me for saying that."
That's a good one too. I'll have to search him.

Great Post - I've always wondered what some of your screen names meant I think mine is pretty self-explanatory and just in case it isn't I LOVED SPREWELL!! He was one of my favorite Knicks during that period.
NY KNICKS 4 EVER! Will we ever find players like Anthony Mason, Xavier McDaniels, Patrick Ewing again? I hope so.

My name is derived from my love of basketball (i.e. love of "the game"), and my delusional belief that I had game on the court back in the day when I played basketball for 2-4 hours everyday.

This is a great post. It is interesting seeing why some people chose their name.

I used to read a lot of scifi stuff and loved shadowrun novels. Dodger was my favorit character. I was born in 1978.

"At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality."
-Che Guevara

At the time, people called me Killa. I was big on Che Guevara at the time. I was then and am still a marxist. Killa4luv seemed more appropriate than just plain Killa. At this point, the idea of calling myself a killa 4 anything, seems totally inapropriate. But thats how I got the name. And my friends do still call me killa. And no, I have never killed anyone...........but don't push me.

Swishfm3... Swish from 3. "Swish" was a name that was given to me because everytime I shot the ball from behind the arc,and hit, I would make that sound....after a while people on the court starting calling me that. When I joined the NY DAILYNEWS Forum (when they had one) I added the "fm3". and thus a legend was born. lol

Elite, thats ****ing awesome man. Let me say, you've done alot of extremely well-done work.. the Jadakiss Why (remix) was awesome, I liked it alot better than the first, maybe cuz Nas was in it. Either way, I see you've done quite a few tracks with the Lox as well, thats awesome man. Keep up the outstanding work. Can I ask a question? When the hell is Jaehoods album dropping? It's been pushed back numerous times. Thanks dude!

Thanks man i apreciate that! As far as J Hood goes I think you can expect it sooner than later, last i heard it was all done and they even shot a video... But when it does drop.. Dont expect much promotion cuz i believe hes on Kotch
[b]

Yo elite, who is your favorite artist to have spit on your tracks? I would ask you who is the worst but that would probably lose you some money, lol. I bet everyone tells you they can spit. I gave that up when I realized I could die from starvation, lol. Seriously though I got better poems in my blackberry than some of the stuff dudes are putting out now, lol.

Fav - Prolly Jadakiss/Styles... It was really dope to hear Nas on the Why Remix even tho i diddnt change the beat THAT much... U right tho... Rap music sucks so bad right now... Why do you think i spend so much time on the Knicks board? They might be horrible... But next to the stories you have to read at allhiphop.com we look like a perfectly respectable organisation!

Goddaughter had a hard time pronouncing my name when she was learning to speak. So she started to call me Bippity. Which is actually harder to say and sounds nothing like my actual name. The 10 was my uniform number at the time when I first started going to these forums. Now I travel around to coach clinics and see youth leagues. And I see little boys and girls running around with the number 10 in honor of my basketball/posting ability. It makes me want to cry with joy.
I just hope that people will like me

You probably still play with them. Loser.

Sugar Ray was a pretty exciting player so why not? He is one of my 10 all time favorite Knicks.
I LOVED how Curry just exploded in the 4th, speaking as a fan of the Raptors, Curry looked well, scary I think is the word. Or Shaq-like Curry: 19.1ppg-7.3rpg-58%fg

i got my start in the early days of the old MSG forums, before the Nazi took over & ruined it for everyone.

TMS = theMETSsuck

everyone called me TMS, so i figured i'd make the change.
