Represent!


So, Last week I was walking through my living room and looked up at the end of a commercial for a new show on MTV called "sportsblender" and I yelled "THATS BRIAN PETERSON!" but then the commercial was over.

Brian was a friend of my sisters when she was here and I was still in high school. He was a film student, he was in final cut (the student film festival) a few years ago. Anyway, he went to BYU and now he has a show on MTV. He got to interview Lebron James, which isn't bad. Be sure to check out all his clips on youtube, in the explore more videos box.

I think we should all give Brian a little shout out. Ask him why his movie never played out here. He made a feature length gig a while ago, and I don't know about you guys, but I feel like if a BYU student does well enough to make a full movie, we should try to get it shown out here somewhere. On campus or movies 8, SOMEWHERE. Anyway, stop by their site, leave your mark, show some love. Way to go, Brian!

Here is his email. Don't worry, I asked him if this was okay.

Why don't I just post the email Brian sent out to his people?

Hi All,

I've been getting some calls and texts from a number of you because I guess my face has been appearing on MTV and in some theaters promoting a show. Well, here's the scoop. I did a quick special for MTV called "SPORSBLENDER" it's a mix of Wayne's World meets SportsCenter. It's a half hour long and I guess it started airing already. It premiered on Saturday night, but they are replaying it a bunch. According to MTV they are airing it again Tuesday night (tomorrow) at 8pm. But check your local listings because it seems to vary quite a bit from provider to provider.

Here's a link to the MTV site where it talks about the show a bit. I am one of the "HOSTS" you'll see if you click in the upper right corner:

One of the highlights was interviewing Basketball star Labron James. During the interview he started teaching me Ebonics. Quite surreal. Anyway, it was put up on YouTube and was one of the top ten viewed videos of the week last week. Here it is:

I know I haven't talked with a number of you in some time. If you are one of those people, I promise I don't hate you. There may be some of you I dislike, but only mildly. I'd never hate you.

love, Brian
