DerMarr Johnson Comes Home
DerMarr Johnson, a former PG County basketball prodigy, is coming home. He was signed today by the Washington Wizards, and the hope is that he’ll add a front court scoring option behind Antawn Jamison.

I never talked to him, I never played against him, and I never tried to stand next to him to pretend like I was with him or other members of the basketball team. Not because I didn’t want to, but because I didn’t even have enough swag to dick ride in high school.
Which in turn, made me much cooler than a lot of people.
Right?
