#TrendingTopicTuesday

I hope everybody enjoyed the 4th of July, because look what's been trending since yesterday.

NBA Free Agency Season has been underway since last week, and so far things have been going great for some teams. The Brooklyn Nets signed Jeremy Lin and Tyler Johnson, the New York Knicks got Derrick Rose and Brandon Jennings, the Chicago Bulls acquired Rajon Rando, and the San Antonio Spurs got Pau Gasol. But the biggest move of was Kevin Durant choosing to move from the Oklahoma City Thunder to the Bay Area with the Golden State Warriors. His announcement came around 12:00PM in the afternoon, I had just finished yesterday's post and I gotta say this seems like a foolish move by Durant. Now, Russell Westbrook is alone in the OKC and Durant choose to go to the team that beat him in the Western Conference Finals, but I'm not the only one reacted to this, take a look below:

The Fourth of July is one my favorite holidays of the year because it has some much in common with Thanksgiving and Christmas. There's great food, big parades, ball games all day long, and most importantly fireworks, I had one of the best Fourth of July I could remember thanks to my new Samsung Galaxy On5 phone. During the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, I recorded it on my phone using Periscope, it was the first time I had ever used it and realize that could do a lot of things live stream videos online. My family was outside barbecuing hamburgers, hot dogs and chicken and when it was dark we watched the fireworks on television. Now I must ask, how did everyone else spend their holiday? They obliviously did the same things I did, but maybe with a twist, let's find out:
