I beat Greg Oden at Guitar Hero

[Myth]

On Thursday, my girlfriend and I went to a Blazer game and got tickets to Cricket Wireless's O-Fon (phone) launch party, hosted by Greg Oden. It was way more than I expected. Oden came in and was really chill. People got all the autographs they wanted, and it all came without pushing and shoving. It was more of a take turns. I got an autograph on my Oden jersey (now hanging proudly on my wall), got to shake his hand, talk to him a little bit, and get some pictures with him. They had karaoke and my girlfriend has a great singing voice, so she sang Whitney Houston's "I will always love you" and dedicated it to Greg. Really worked in her favor because he started singing along a little bit, and then gave her a hug after she finished. That was the highlight for her. For me, it was getting to play guitar hero with him. He only played 2 songs, and the second I got to play with him. He asked "Do you want to play on hard?" I said "sure," but didn't come across as too confident since I haven't played in several months. I think he took that comment as 'I have no idea what I am doing'. I was joking with the guys behind me saying that I was pretty good but out of practice, but I don't think Greg heard me, because after I beat him, he said, "You cheated, you didn't tell me you were that good." He was acting upset, and I honestly couldn't tell if he was joking or not. I told him that I usually play co-op mode, so I wasn't even thinking of it as a competition, to which he responded, "Yeah, whatever." Anyway, on to my picture proof (unfortunately off a cell phone). Oh, and Greg took stood in front of a green screen where they made it look like he was standing next to himself licking his own clone.

That's awesome man. Oden looks like a real chill guy. Did he say when he'll be back on the court?

[Mamba]

awesome. but get a new haircut

[w00terz]

Moar pics of your girlfriend plox.

[Mississippi]

Nah Myth, If your girl isn't complaining about your cut, don't worry what others say. If it aint broke, don't fix it. Lol.

[D-Rose]

Cool Stuff.

[Myth]

Moar pics of your girlfriend plox.

Yeah, I intentionally didn't post pics of her. I don't think she'd be happy with me spreading pics of her on the net.

Mamba - What would you suggest? I see my hair is laying weird in the first 2 pics, but if you mean beyond that, I've always believe my hair looks better longer than shorter. In my opinion, I pull off longer hair better, but I can't do that because I do therapy with clients and have to keep my hair more professional.

[Mississippi]

Clients? Wow man you look like you're around 17.

[Myth]

Yeah, I know. It throws off some clients too. I'm 24 and in my 2nd year working towards my doctorate. Usually I have facial hair, which makes me look more like 21, but I shaved it off for a Halloween costume party, and I'm getting professional pictures taken with my girlfriend tomorrow, so I kept it clean shaved rather than halfway grown in for the photos.

[Mamba]

just shave the sides leave it short on top and spike it, grow a beard.

right now that long hair makes u look 17.

Can't grow a full beard, but I'll grow back my goatee after tomorrow. The spiked look really really looks bad on me, and no matter what I do with my hair I always look young. The goatee will add a few years, but I'm stickin with the hair as it is for a while. I'll probably change it in a few months. I usually do, but I usually regret not keeping it at least at the length it currently is. Thanks for the advise though :cheers:

[D-Rose]

Haha I swear I thought you were a High school Junior.

[Maniak]

Its a weak era for video gaming :lol :applause: :rockon: :bowdown: :rolleyes: :hammerhead: :confusedshrug:

[Nets fan 93]

If it were basketball it would be a different story lol

[Solid Snake]

If it were basketball it would be a different story lol

Well, with Oden's track record, maybe not..

[Nets fan 93]

Well, with Oden's track record, maybe not..
That was sarcastic right?

[RoseCity07]

You look exactly like my friends brother, just different hair color.

Anyway, Oden is awesome, and that's cool you beat him. Cricket wireless sucks though, they are going out of business.

[ClutchCityReturns]

Wow, that's like me beating my dad.

Newsflash: Old people are not good at videogames.

[RoseCity07]

I don't know why so many people talk about Greg Oden looks ugly. Are there NBA players that you consider good looking? He just looks like another dude to me.

[GOBB]

RoseCity u dont ever see anything wrong with Oden. Maybe if u came from out under his nutsac you could see from a different view?


Cool pix Myth. I doubt Oden was mad/upset. Pretty sure he was jokin since he is a funny dude in his own unique way. I just get that from interviews, commercials. You see him and u wonder is he jokin or serious then figure out he is jokin. And thats just how he gets people i guess. And ummm yeah sorry but GOBB never lets a photo slide without a comment. You resemble Michael Myers. Let me guess you and Oden played that theme song from Halloween on Guiar Hero? Look at them go ISH'ers! hahahaaaa Oden is tall as hell tho. How tall are u?

[VCMVP1551]

Cool story, Greg seems like a really cool guy. Hopefully he's back in a couple of weeks.

[RoseCity07]

No homo but Wade is my favorite player and I have this GQ magazine which is where that pic is from. My cousin knows I'm a big Wade fan and she wanted to see what he looked like, she said half of his face is drooping.

Anyway GOBB GTFO you troll.

He meant this Michael Myers I think, hence the Halloween reference.
http://static.flickr.com/72/224571429_c9d157a342_o.jpg

Oden was measured 6'11" so it'll be pretty damn tough to judge Myth's height from a picture with a guy who is way more than a head taller than him.

[Tical200]

awesome. i know a friend that got to meet ricky davis after writing a song about him, hes awesome

[miller-time]

seriously, does oden still look like hes 40 in person?

[big baller]

Yeah, I know. It throws off some clients too. I'm 24 and in my 2nd year working towards my doctorate. Usually I have facial hair, which makes me look more like 21, but I shaved it off for a Halloween costume party, and I'm getting professional pictures taken with my girlfriend tomorrow, so I kept it clean shaved rather than halfway grown in for the photos.

congrats, bro :applause:

[VCMVP1551]

He looks older than 40 to me honestly as far as his face.

He looked older than David Robinson(42 at the time) when they posed for this picture.

Proud of what? He hasn't done anything yet :oldlol:

But seriously, nice one.:rockon:

[Myth]

Thanks. And I am 5'8.5".

[Godfather]

Am I the only one who feels Greg will have alot of time to work on Guitar Hero skills before his career is over :confusedshrug:

[jbot]

great...you probably just helped him hurt his wrist or something. :no:

[Myth]

Yeah, my friend made a joke about him jamming a finger.

[dirkdiggler41]

I would rather see you get a haircut then play a video game against Oden

True...but Robinson looks better at 42 that most people will at any point in there life.

[GOBB]

I would rather you tell the board you're a female and not a male the way you are worried about his haircut.

[G-train]

look at dudes face and not the hair, he looks 23 or so to me

anywho nice one

[lilojmayo]

Thanks. And I am 5'8.5".

can i get a clap:applause: i am so good at judging heights its not even funny

[Geandily]

Thats nice, but we already covered that.

You know a hat wouldn't look bad on you.

Whatever Oden lacks in looks, he makes up in heart. :pimp:

[Horatio33]

Not really related but Robinson looks like a young danny glover.

[Grinder]

Off topic - When is Oden expected to return?

[P-town1114]

Off topic - When is Oden expected to return?

No statements has been made on when he'll be back. He'll be traveling with the team on their 5 game rode trip tomorrow though. I guessing he'll probably be back near the end of this month since they're letting him shoot around and doing some light running already.

[It's A VC3!!!]

Man Oden is BIG.

[rawimpact]

Its a weak era for video gaming :lol :applause: :rockon: :bowdown: :rolleyes: :hammerhead: :confusedshrug:

shut the **** up, everything is a weak era for you and quiet frankly, no one gives a ****.

[RoseCity07]

Greg Oden might be back against Miami which is the second game of this road trip. He is more likely to play after that game though against either New Orleans or Minnesota.

[Grinder]

Thanks for the updates, let's hope he doesn't rush his return and can play the remainder of the season healthy.

[Big Al All day]

I just realized that Myth is 4 years older then Oden hahahah.

[Myth]

Yeah, its hard to believe, especially since he held me in his arms and told me how terrible it was growing up a black man in the 50s and 60s.
