[quote name='Michael' post='120845' date='Jan 6 2009, 12:52 AM']Alright, so I managed to get a interview with Fabian Washington. And I'd like 5-10 questions to be able to ask him. Only serious questions please. ;)[/quote]
Ask him if the injury he suffered at the end of this year is still affecting him and if so how is he playing to deal with it?

[quote name='RavensIQ' post='121735' date='Jan 7 2009, 12:59 PM']It means I'm on fire. Lil Wayne says it in one of his songs referring to him being in the zone when he raps. He's going at it so hard on the mic that he can't feel his face. Him and Juelz even made an albumn called I cant feel my face. Then LeBron James started waving his hand in front of his grill when ever he started to get in the zone and make a big play. I don't know if he started the trend but he's the first one I saw do it. Then everybody else started to copy him and now it's leaked over to the NFL to the point when somebody makes any type of good play they wave their hand over their face bcuz their "on fire". Some say it's the Tony YaYo thing but I'm pretty sure it started with lil wayne and lebron and now everybody does it.[/quote]

LeBron most certainly did not start that gesture; James only did it to mock DeShaun.

I watched an interview with LeBron and that's the reason he gave. He was the 1st athlete I saw doing it. Then just like every other NBA trend everybody and their mama had to copy it. Now I think people do it for the hell of it just bcuz everyone else is doing it. (even if they don't know what they're doing)

You can't see me? Doesn't make much sense to me...Maybe the qb didnt see the defender b4 he intercepted him? Ok kinda..

I'm on fire (from rapping like a maniac), my mouth is numb and I can't feel my face...

Athletes get on fire by shutting down a WR or a Point Guard gets on fire shooting back to back nothing-but-net 3 pointers....Waves his hand over his face as a metaphor...Makes sense to me

I like the "im on fire" metaphor better then "you can't see me" metaphor, so I'll just agree w/Lebron on this 1. But you're probably right, the whole thing is probably players just doing the Yayo dance.
