The legend of Linsanity is definitely not forgotten, but its early origin is only now being told. Linsanity: the Movie previewed at Sundance to a limited audience but through Kickstarter, the goal is to finish and distribute this documentary of kismet.
Although this project has reached its goal, you can still back the project to get your own copy of the DVD and other goodies. Deadline is February 15, 2013.
Nonetheless, the timing of finding this Linsanity remnant is great with the screening of the Linsanity documentary at the Sundance Film Festival. Did you know that Brian Yang who plays Fong on Hawaii Five-0 produced this film? Yep, Fong isn’t just the behind-the-scenes tech wizard for 5-0. In his spare time, he and a film crew followed Jeremy Lin everywhere on his path to the NBA.
Until the Linsanity documentary gets picked up by a distributor, you won’t be watching JLin’s story unfold, so you might as well find yourself a Lin never stops shirt. If there are none at your local TJ Maxx, check out eBay.
After a recent, tiring run, I thought I was hallucinated. I heard Jeremy Lin speaking to me. He was congratulating me on my workout. Oh wait, that was JLin speaking through the Nike+ system.
Instead of congratulating me on my run, I would rather JLin tell me he’s giving me a pair of his custom kicks.
Linsanity for your feet is black and orange and costs $100. That’s the details for the latest Nike Zoom Hyperdunk 2011 Low “Linsanity” edition. Supposedly released this weekend.
Not sure how this black and orange colorway represents JLin, but who am I to question Linsanity?
Wonder what this article about Jeremy Lin says? Guessing it has something to do with Lin’s knee surgery and not playing for the rest of the NBA season.
I’m still (and will always be) a Draw Something scrawler. In my wildest dreams, I don’t ever seeing me draw something like this Jeremy Lin representation.
Even Coach Mike D’Antoni looks realistic!

Obviously, there’s an inherent connection between professional athletes and food dishes. Get famous in a sport, get food named after you – it’s just a fact of life. Here are two recent examples. Do you recognize them (and the athlete they represent)?
The top picture is Shane Victorino’s Flyin’ Hawaiian Poke sold at Foodland. A locally born outfielder who plays for the Philadelphia Phillies translates to one damn good poke.
The bottom picture is the new special sauce for L&L’s Lin-katsu. Substituting the regular chicken katsu sauce for this special concoction that’s supposed to represent NY Knicks’ Jeremy Lin and his Asian heritage. So that means JLin is a spicy, tad creamy, orange-flavored Oriental (dressing). Um, yeah, sure… but what the heck, I bought a Lin-katsu, and I might buy one again since it’s now available at all L&L’s.
As the Linsanity train keeps chugging along, here’s one stop I can do without, JLin’s basketball kicks. It’s great that Nike gave him his own player’s exclusive, but they ain’t for me. Not the Zoom Hyperdunk 2011 Low that Jeremy wore during the NBA All Star Weekend or his Zoom Hyperfuse. Nice, but just not my style.
Though I do admit, I like the above two better than these mockups.
Schweddy Balls is so 2011. The latest en vogue Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavor is the “Taste the Lin-sanity.” Yes, Jeremy Lin has now inspired an ice cream flavor.
Sadly, this limited flavor is very limited, only available at the company’s Harvard Square location.
Has all the hoopla around NY Knicks floor general, Jeremy Lin, gone too far? His surname poses so many possibilities to rev up the hype, but this one made me laugh. Â According to Tannya Joaquin, local plate lunch chain, L & L, has introduced the Lin-katsu. Â That’s chicken katsu with a special sauce that’s more spicy with mayo to reflect JLin’s Taiwanese heritage.
But if you want to sample the Linkatsu, it’s only available at the Keeaumoku, Airport, Kahala locations.
And look, dining on Lin-katsu wouldn’t be complete without wearing a Lin-katsu shirt!
