Hey fans, sorry for the inconvenience of the website and blog. I’ve been hella busy and just plain forgot to do one. I know I need to update the page with Raptor pics. It’s cold here… lol and Toronto is a really nice city. The fans are amazing and the transition has been very smooth. I haven’t been to Best Buy here yet, but yesterday on my way back, I found a Popeye’s. How sweet. It’s not like in the states but it will definitely do. The grocery store is a little different as well. I was looking for my fruity pebbles but its not happening and no Lawry’s seasoning salt which blew me away! But, other than little minor differences, the food is pretty much the same. Lots of nice restaurants which I will be exploring. So, that’s enough info for today. I’m going to holla later when I find a Best Buy… ha ha
Hey Shawn.. it was nice to see you back on the PHOENIX court on the 27th last month! (my bday!!) It was a good game and screw the fans who boo’d u lol

Hey Shawn! i can’t belive you are a raptor now! i have to say this is my second favorite team behind the Suns.
I am from germany and i had the chance to cu live 3 times. one time in Cologne where you sigend my Allstar Jersey and 2 times in toronto when you were playing with the suns. I also stayed in the Hyatt, where you guys where staying, but i missed you 2 times in the hotel lobby. i hope you are staying in toronto after the summer, so maybe i have the chance to cu live again, next year in toronto at a raps game, because i have family in canada. That would be so so cool! I hope you like the City.
By the way! they have a Futureshop at 10 Dundas. that almost the same like best buy! you should check it out
Peace Marco
I am glad that you like this city of Toronto! I lived there before, and I enjoyed it… Hope you can stay here for us, the fans will always here to support!
Hi Shawn,
What’s up I am happy that you had a smooth transition. You are going to have to stock up on all your spices when you go back to the states. Therefore you will have them when you are ready to do your cooking. When was the last time you have been to Dermott? Your granddad stopped by to visit with my dad a couple of weeks ago. I guess they were chatting about old times. Take care Shawn.

Hey Shawn,
..I kept trying to get your attention to let you know I brought you some fruity pebbles but everytime we made eye contact you looked away. Also I ALWAYS get your wristband but I didnt tonight and you signed your shoes and gave em to someone else but I did get your towel, better than nothing I guess. I waited to see if you were gonna come back out after the game so I could get your jersey but I never saw you. I ordered your jersey but it didnt come in today so I had to wear the Raptors tee this time (with your name & number)! Well see ya next time maybe, good luck the rest of the season!
I was glad to see you play tonight but honestly was kinda bummed

Hey Shawn
Its great too see you here in Toronto,yes the Raptors didnt do well this season but that dosent mean next year they will be the same or does it lol, i dont think so. Hope you stay outhere for another season because the Raptors need some one that can lead the break just like yourself well have a great day and good luck againts Bobcats on friday, i will be watching you, dunk on some one just like u dunked on granger ahahah dammnnnnnn
Wha gwan Shawn
How’s the T Dot treating you? I know it’s cold up here but ikts warming up. I know the popeyes and kfc is kinda different from the States but I think our McDonalds are better. Anyway try the west indian food up here its great. Try some ox tail with rice an peas or some curry goat. Am sure you’ll like it. By the way the closest Best Buy is the one by Bay St. & Dundas St. W. Hopefully that will help you out some bit. Anyways hope you stay in the T Dot for the summer, its more nicer those times when Caribana comes around.
Peace Out

hey we get some nice weather in april, not 2 far away. Toronto a nice city hope you enjoy the city , we have loyal fans here ..
Hey Shawn. I’m glad your liking Toronto. Just google map Best Buy I’m sure you’ll find it. WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS COLD lol
. We’ve been having some good weather its spring for god sakes, I guess its just my Canadian blood. Anywho the popeyes here is way better than the States its less greasy and what are you eating popeyes for aren’t you athletes supposed to be on like an egg yolk diet or something. Love ya shawn much love Marian .
Hey Shawn its great to have u on he raps i hope u enjoy canada by the way THAT WAS NASTY the dunk on granger sweet dunk. One of my favourite stores in toronto is Future Shop and Best Buy favourite restauraunt Popeyes try visting new stores by the way marion ur the BEST!!!
Hey Marion,
my dad met you a few weeks ago he came to drop of your car with Nav. any way u shuld try going to the Eaton Center They have every single store there.
Hey Shawn,
Ya man, have to echo this Rhonda girl’s comment on how sophisticated your site is. Looking good. Great to see that you’ve started to find your form in the Raps rotation. Really hoping that your stay with us isn’t temporary. Never thought that a Suns loss would eventually become a Raps gain. Your a great player and personality. Not everyone would accept a role in Canada’s team, especially not as well as you have. Good on you. Its no surprise tho, you’ve always brought a rare sense of nobility to the game and your recent move to T. is no exception. Always been a big fan. You’ve brought some much needed energy back to the Raps my friend. Still yet to see you break out the transition three-pt tho.lol I know you will always get yours and you have proven it in what you do every night, but I was really hoping that your installment into the lineup and your slashing ability would spread the floor enough to open up JK. I don’t know what it is. Homie should be right up there with you in the pts column, wouldn’t you say? I don’t know if its a lack of drive and kick action, if Bosh needs to find him when the double team comes or if Coach needs to draw up some plays. Its killing me. Kinda here nor there, but its definitely one of the biggest problems in the equation this season in my opinion; poor utilization of our boys. You always know your role tho. Keep doing what your doing man.
Always felt that in order to truly command the support of Canadian fans that a westward trip to the rest of Canada is necessary.lol You probably don’t really know the country well enough to care, but if you get the opportunity to travel a bit in the offseason, don’t rule out the chance to do some sight seeing in Canada. Won’t regret it. More importantly tho, you’ll know what your playing for. Great country. Haven’t made it to Toronto since last summer, but definitely have to make a point of it next season to catch the matrix. Hell ya. Rip it up.
