Jen

I graduated from University of Arizona. I am sport obsessed, and another of my favorite things would have to be traveling. I backpacked by myself through Australia and Fiji for almost 4 months… and would probably spend the rest of my life backpacking the world if that was at all possible. I have gone bungy jumping and sky diving- you’ve got to try them!

Suns Training Camp Goof Off!

Take a minute to forget the Suns struggles this year and watch this video at Suns training camp on the Arizona campus. My fellow UAers take some time to embarrass themselves and make me proud. I am pretty upset that I couldn’t be there to help. Mike D’Antoni [...]

The most entertaining guy in basketball is admittedly cheap in his latest blog post:

“I’m going to go to F.A.O. Schwartz this weekend to go get me some toys for the little ones. I’ll probably go ahead and take my wheelchair up there. They got the good toys there. I’m going to go do some shopping.
