Feliz Cinco de Mayo!!!

Just some info for y'all:  Cinco de Mayo is the celebration of a victory war fought between the the Mexicans and the French, after the French attempted to invade Mexico over a debt dispute that it claimed the mexicans owed them for aiding them in their war for independence against Spain. The victory for the mexicans demonstrated that the newly founded country of Mexico wasn't going to be bullied by anybody. (Until later, when the country was overtaken by drugs, political corruption, poverty, and pollution.)  Contrary to popular belief, it is NOT a celebration of Mexico's indepedence from Spain.

Ah yes... Mayo, like OJ Mayo. That's right Jurina Journal fans, 5 da' Mayo isn't about the French, Spanish or Mexican's. It’s about the future of the NBA.
OJ Mayo is the next Point Guard to star in the NBA. Chris Paul might win rookie of the year, but Mayo is the next “big” little guy, if 6’4”, 190 lbs. is a little guy. As a junior in high school he already possess that skills to pay the pays. He’s got an inside and an outside game and he’s a great finisher with a sense for the game.
Don’t let Al fool you. It’s time to celebrate Mayo. OJ Mayo!

I'm out like Mexico's chances of overcoming drugs, political corruption, poverty, and pollution!
