This is a JerkishBehavior Ode to high school basketball legend Dajuan Wagner. I heard about Dajuan Wagner for the 1st time in SLAM magazine where they had an article on him being the chosen one as one of the best high school players in the country and possibly the next Allen Iverson but bigger. Dajuan Wagner was a scoring machine who had range out to 30 feet, an insane mid-range game, and could drive the lane with the best of them. The moment I became a die-hard fan is when I heard Dajuan Wagner pulled off the Holy Grail of scoring binges and scored 100 points in a high school game. The next day, I remember the story making it to the Chicago newspaper and he had on an Avirex leather jacket (which was a must have like Jordan’s back in the day) in the article that showed he was the truth off the court as well. Dajuan Wagner averaged 42.5 points a game as a senior and scored 50 or more points in 9 games while on his way to broking the New Jersey state scoring record for most points in a career with 3.462 points. Dajuan Wagner made the coveted McDonald’s All-American Game where he scored a game high 25 points and could have rode that momentum straight to the NBA but decided to go to college at Memphis University. Juanny was a scoring machine once he stepped on his college campus as well. Juanny made the transition look easy and continued unleash long-range jumpers nothing but net and get to the hole with ease. Whenever Juanny played on national television, I made sure I recorded it in order to keep it for my collection and study his moves. Dajuan Wagner averaged 21 points a game during his lone year in college year in college including scoring 20 points or more in 22 games. Juanny didn’t lead his team to the NCAA tournament and had to settle for the NIT (the tournament that is for all the teams who didn’t make the NCAA one and have a .500 record) but he most definitely made it his show. Juanny increased his scoring average to 21 points and led his Memphis Tigers to a NIT title while being named the MVP of the whole tournament. Dajuan Wagner showed he could score on the college and was ready for new challenges and left for the NBA after his freshmen year and got drafted 6th overall by the Cleveland Cavs. Juanny was seen as the potential next star of the league and even had his own ESPN “The Life” episode which showed him working out with legendary trainer Tim Grover (he was Michael Jordan’s personal trainer) in preparation for his rookie season. Dajuan Wagner was the truth to me so much so that I bought and paid full price for his authentic white #2 jersey with the Cavs (which I still have today and was unheard for me to pay full price but Juanny was the boy.) which was extra exclusive. During Juanny’s rookie campaign, he did what he does best and made scoring the basketball look easy and show that he was a natural at doing it. Juanny averaged 14 pts a game as a rookie but had a 7 game span where he averaged 25 points a game, he scored 20 points in 11 games, and had arguably his best game of his career at Madison Square Garden in New York aka “The Mecca of Basketball” with 25 points and 10 assists. Unfortunately, Juanny’s rookie season was cut short due to injuries. Dajuan Wagner’s 2nd season in the NBA was supposed to be the beginning of the Lebron & Juanny tag team duo but once again injuries struck again and this dynamic duo never materialized. Dajuan Wagner had a life threatening bladder infection and had to end up getting his entire colon removed. Juanny was seen as a health risk and hasn’t been able to get back into the league but continues to play professionally overseas and continues to try to get back to the NBA. Dajuan Wagner was a natural born scorer and could get buckets in his sleep at any level of play. So this JerkishBehavior Ode is to one of the greatest scoring machines of all time in Dajuan Wagner.
JerkishBehavior Hall of Fame Inductee: Barry Bonds
The newest inductee into the JerkishBehavior Hall of Fame is one of the most hated and controversial athlete’s in history, Barry Bonds. Barry Bonds is one of the greatest baseball players if not thee best to ever play the game. Barry Bonds was a five-tool player who could hit for power, hit for average, steal bases, gold glove defense along with gold glove arm. Barry Bonds is the greatest home run hitter ever in baseball history by owning thee most hallowed record in baseball, career and single season home run leader (762 and 73). During his days with the San Francisco Giants, Barry Bonds was the most feared hitter in baseball where teams would rather walk him 3-4 times a game rather than give him an opportunity to hit a home run. Barry Bonds was such a bad dude that he had more walks than whole teams combined and one of five players in baseball history to ever get an intentional walk with the bases loaded, BANANAS!!! Barry Bonds was a home run hitting machine where he was hitting a home run at a ridiculous rate of one out of every eight at bats. Lost in the home run hype is the fact Bonds was a great hitter and won several batting titles for highest batting average in the National League while being the home run king. Bonds is one the few players in baseball history to have more home runs than strikeouts in a season so he had insane eye for the ball. From 2001-2004, Barry Bonds put up some of the gaudiest numbers baseball has ever seen where he consistently improved on the best season ever year after year so much so that he won a ridiculously insane 4 consecutive MVP awards (fyi, Bonds has a record seven and 2nd all-time is three).
Barry Bonds is one of the most hated athletes’ in history because he never played nice with the media in that he always spoke his mind, did what he wanted, and never stuck to the politically correct athlete status quo. Barry Bonds has never tested positive for using steroids but the haters have already condemn him as guilty and would have you believe he doesn’t belong in the Hall of Fame. However before steroids was even an issue, Barry Bonds was a 1st ballot Hall of Famer before he even played for the Giants from his days with the Pittsburgh Pirates where he won the National League MVP Award twice, three gold gloves for his defense in the outfield, and led his team to three NL East championship. It’s a shame that he wont get the credit he deserves for being one of the best to ever do it because of his personality and steroids issue by mass media and the general public but a wise man once said “Men lie, women lie, but numbers don’t”. So for his utterly ridiculous numbers, the newest inductee into the JerkishBehavior Hall of Fame is Barry Bonds.

JerkishBehavior (User Submitted) Movie Review: Avatar
This review was emailed to us by a JerkishBehavior fan and it passed our standards, so here is a movie review on "Avatar" by Dani Morrison
Set in the future, in a world where humans are not only able to travel to other universes but also able to implant their minds into other creatures, and find yourself in Avatar. The classic conflict of race, power, and superiority takes form on an alien planet where the colonialism and manifest destiny of times past is replayed once again. The Avatar is a bridge between humans and the people who live in this primal and yet futuristic jungle. Employed as a means to facilitate negotiations between the company that was to overtake a key portion of the planet for monetary gain and the indigenous people, the Avatar is a new take on the classic mole.
Jake Sulley (Sam Worthington), an ex-marine who is offered the position of the new Avatar after the death of his brother, enters this role and world with the mentality and prejudices of his superiors and begins to learn to appreciate the natives of this distant planet as a result of Dr. Grace Augustine (Sigourney Weaver) and Neytiri who is the daughter of the clan leader and spiritual advisor (Zoe Saldana). Although his progression from loyal sheep to his own people and betrayed friend to that of the natives is foreseen, the manner and style of his progression is worth watching.
Key to the movie is Cameron’s ability to bring the viewer into this world and make us feel for the characters. Though several of the premises are derivative, this imaginative world that Cameron takes us into is truly beautiful. The classic conflicts that are replayed serve as a bridge for the viewer and the solid acting of the main characters cement a relationship that truly makes gives viewers a vested interest in the story.
The movie is clearly character and plot driven, however, an excellent action sequence ends the movie. I would have liked a greater amount of action dispersed throughout the film, however, this is my only main criticism. Overall, I think Cameron created a world fraught with meaning and vitality, and the characters were engaging as well as endearing.

JerkishBehavior Hall Of Fame Inductee: Brett Favre
The newest inductee into the JerkishBehavior Hall of Fame is arguably the greatest quarterback of all time in Brett Favre. As a Chicago Bears fan, it is forbidden to like anyone from the arch rival Green Bay Packers but all that hate made me appreciate the greatness that is Brett Favre and he became of one of my favorite quarterbacks of all-time as well. Brett Favre thoroughly decimated and had his way with the Bears whenever he played him and even if it was a close game, you just knew Favre was going to come threw and pull out the victory while ripping your heart out in the process which usually happened on a regular. Brett Favre is considered one of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time because he has one of the strongest arms ever where he can throw it in tight spots where others can’t. Favre’s passes have jammed and broken many of his wide receivers hands because he throws the ball so hard. Brett Favre has some of the greatest improvisational skills where he has created passes when the conventional pass wasn’t available such the shovel pass, underhand pass, or flip pass all of which Favre has thrown for touchdowns. Brett Favre brought excitement to the quarterback position in that he would run full speed to go celebrate with his teammates in the endzone after a touchdown and sometimes even tackled them. Brett Favre would jump fake like he was passing the ball whenever he handing the ball off to the running back because he was bored. No one ever took Favre’s playful nature as him being soft because he is one of the toughest SOB’s to put on the cleats and had no problem talking shit while getting in the opposing defensive players faces. Brett Favre is considered one of the greatest quarterbacks ever because of what of his competitive greatness of how he rises to the occasion when the game is on the line. Favre is the most feared man in football with the game on the line because no matter the odds he going to find a way to lead his team to victory. Brett Favre has led his team to victory with 42 game winning drives which is 2nd all-time (John Elway is 1st with 47). Brett Favre led the Packers to back-to-back Super Bowl berths while winning one Lombardi trophy (the name of the Super Bowl trophy). So not does Brett Favre have the wins to back up his greatness but also the stats where he virtually every major passing record in NFL history. Favre is one of only 4 quarterbacks to ever lead the league touchdowns four times and one of only 3 quarterbacks to beat all 31 teams in the NFL. Brett Favre owns the record for the most consecutive starts by any player in NFL history that shows the longevity of his legendary legacy. Brett Favre is a god in Green Bay and in football period, which saw him become the only player in NFL history to win 3 consecutive MVP awards. So as the greatest the quarterback of all time, the newest inductee into the JerkishBehavior Hall of Fame is Brett Favre.
