L-R-G 3 Kings of Washington
March 30th, 2008 in Events Fashion by Anthony
Direct from L-R-G:
L-R-G along with Clinton Portis and Santana Moss, is proud to bring you the 3 Kings of Washington x L-R-G Windbreaker, a tribute to Sean Taylor. Taylor, before his untimely passing made a presence not only on the field as the Redskins prototype Safety, but also off the field with community events such as the 3 Kings of Washington event, where Taylor, Moss and Portis along with celebrity guest and the players host a weekend of activities to show kids that they can one day become valuable participants and leaders in life.
In continuing with tradition Santana and Clinton will be hosting the weekend at the end of April seeking the proper way to pay tribute to their friend Sean Taylor. The L-R-G x 3 Kings of Washington windbreaker features the University of Miami school colors as well as nicknamed by many of the players “The U”. A 21 logo is featured on the hood of the jacket similar to the tribute paid by many of the NFL teams this past season. This limited edition windbreaker will hopefully help pay tribute to Sean Taylor, and bring a sense of closure to this tragedy.
With such a crazy world unfolding outdoors, it’s hard to not get caught up and lose sight on what matters most: life. It’s refreshing to see a company like L-R-G supporting such a cause and taking part in Sean’s remembrance. For more info visit: www.myspace.com/3kingsofwashington

Pavlik vs Taylor II
February 16th, 2008 in Events by Lars
For all the real men out there that watch boxing, you know the first Pavlik vs Taylor fight was the best fight of 2007. Pavlik got caught [while taunting] in the second round and went down hard, only to come back and pound Taylor’s face in with harsh right hands and claim victory with a devestating knock-out. Taylor [21-1-1, 17 KO's] is looking for a pardon on his only loss tonight, as he fights the undefeated champ Pavlik [32-0, 29 KO's] at MGM Grand [ya shoulda stayed in Vegas!] in this 12-round Middleweight Championship bout. Coverage begins at 9pm EST and is available on HBO Pay-Per-View. So take off your exclusive million dollar sneakers [don't worry, you're the only one that owns them], put your feet up, and watch the blood spill!
