CONTEST!!! 

Okay, eagle eye readers, get ready for the first ever Brazen Path Designs contest! Here's the scoop. The "Mutts for Obama" dog T-shirt line has become one of the most successful of the fledgling lines. Seeing as how we will be celebrating President Barack Obama for four more years (make that four more centuries!), we'd like to start collecting photos of our happy satisfied customers wearing their own pet gear.  

So bust out your cameras, proud pet parents, and take your picture wearing any one of the "Mutts for Obama" line. Send it to blaise@brazenpathdesign.com. If your photo is selected and displayed on the website, you will receive a free dog shirt of your choice. Any size, any design. Just a quick thank you from your friends at Brazen Path Designs. So whip out those cameras, people, and make your dog famous. After all, we've got four years of Obama. Now how good does that sound?

Winner of the Four Sport Showdown? For 2009, it's all basketball, baby.

Ah, sports. It's a good time to be a sports fan, as the three sport trinity of NFL, NBA, and NFL are causing thumb-wrestling for rabid sports viewers every weekend. But which to choose to follow? What sport shall one study to become the best of the barstool masters, educated in all players and schemes and individual team flaws? What sport will thrive the most in 2009?

We'll leave baseball out of this equation, not just because it's recently concluded season but also because of a notorious weak World Series ratings. But this winter, which sport will rule the airwaves?

Football will forever have a stranglehold on College Gameday Saturdays and fantasy players, and hockey saw a pleasant upsurge from an otherwise pitiful Palin campaign. Hockey mom brought some fun to the rinks, at least for a little while. Anyone remember Manny Legace tripping on Palin's carpet?

But the true victor emerged on Novemeber 4th, 2008. Yes, Barack Obama reached the White House, and yes, it was historic. But the real victor? The NBA.

Avid basketball fan Barack will do for the game of roundball more than the chubby jiggle known as the Clinton jog did for running. Or, for that matter, what clumsy Dubya did for mountain biking, or Dick Triggerfinger Cheney did for hunting. no, smooth, slick shooting Barack is going to bring a regimen that included a daily session of jump shots and friendly one-on-ones.

Image, our future leader working out the deficit while running down the lane or pondering Putin's latest move at the free throw line. David Stern wanted to go international, and President Obama sure is helping the cause. We got next? No, the good ol' US dropped the ball before. It's 2008 now, and the ball's in our court. The world got next.
