Tomorrow, Californians will go the polls to decide if owning a small amount of marijuana in the Golden State becomes legal.

For all the wrath from the "restore America" crowd directed at the Bay Area, Cali is not only where they put the mack down, but is also the country's #1 trendsetter, so fans of the friendly green should take a good luck toke.

I spoke with one of the state's leading legalization advocates, Dale Sky Jones, who is also the executive chancellor at Oaksterdam University, a trade school for the cannabis industry based in Oakland. 

I have no Snoop Dogg in the fight, but one can only imagine the party in the Haight if Prop 19 passes at the same time the Giants win the World Series. 

Smoke 'em if you got 'em, right Big Game Timmy Jim?

Before we I get fired up for the 2010-11 pro hoops season, let's take a moment to honor our elders, shall we?

Ahhh. that feels good, doesn't it? Any 76ers fan will tell you, yes it does. Sadly, it does. (Wipes tear from eye, rubs Barkley-ish belly for good luck.)

I had the privilege of writing an article for the November Fast Company about how the NBA is absolutely crushing the rest of America's professional sports leagues when it comes to social media--like this Facebook posting for example. 

It was a lot of fun talking to some of the NBA's social media evangelists, so big ups (is that still a thing?) to the Suns, Celtics, Nets and Cavs for their help.
