James "Big Lumber" Eayrs, a senior on the Milwaukee men's basketball team, is a men's basketball correspondent for the HLN Blog.

When I was told to write this blog and give you guys a glimpse into the life of "Big Lumber," only one thing came to my mind...my first and only true love...the double meat burrito from Chipotle.

The perfect burrito starts with the main ingredient, a charitable employee. By this I mean, "Ya ain't stingy with my fillings."

My burrito begins with a healthy serving of rice. It is the point guard to my burrito, holding everything together. Next, my main ingredient, double chicken. It fills my stomach like a center should fill the lane. Next in line, my salsas. It's the small forward of my burrito, adding spice...the high-flying entertainment for my taste buds. Next up, the cheese and sour cream. It serves as my power forward, cleaning up the glass like I'll have to clean these ingredients from my face. Rounding out my starters, at off-guard, the lettuce. Its crunch adds the texture that anchors my backcourt.

And you can't forget guacamole, providing the perfect atmosphere for my fillings to be enjoyed to their full potential. It's the Panther Pack of my burrito. Lastly, the tortilla. It makes everything to work as one, just like coach Jeter.

In conclusion, I've officially made myself hungry.

Life, triples, burritos,

-Big Lumber
