passion of the "get a Pre-nup"

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30210155/

i wish otis was on-line for this one....

mel gibson is in divorce court and worth close to .....$1billion (read it like dr. evil; it sounds funnier). so his wife could be entitled to $0.5B....he has made $600M from the passion of christ alone.....better yet royalties from lethal weapon, braveheart, etc....would be halved from here on out....

Do you swing a trade for Braylon Edwards or Anquan Boldin?

i don't think it's close, it's clearly Q. dude presents both sides of the argument decently though

for all my hulkamaniacs---brother!

http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/showbiz/2009/04/16/sbt.hulk.rage.cnn

this is crazy what did he mean.....he wanted to steal his escalade back via a hostage situation like OJ did with his sports paraphernalia.....

oh no he is insinuating that OJ killed his wife.....interesting the comments by the panel suggests that ppl are not over this and ppl think as cedric the entertainer said, "OJ DID IT"...

Dang, John Madden retires

who do they get to replace him?

Q-Tip on meeting J-Dilla



This is for Trey, i saw it on dontgetgassed.com. Tip really gave Dilla his big break by bringing them into the production for the last 2 Tribe albums. The change in Tribe's sound was why i hated on Dilla for so long, i really didn't like him changing my same ground. Now that i listen to it, it's like OMG, that dude was dope.

I always thought dude should have played football instead of basketball

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=4070344

if you look at his high school film he was better at football, but i think he saw the dollar signs and long term health implications of football and decided coach k can get me in the nba.....baskteball is always a safer long term choice if you are good enough. so i can't fault him....

i wonder why he didn't go to a school he could play both like UNC (see peppers and curry).

anyway can he do it? can he play college QB somewhere and impress people enough to get a shot at the nfl the following year....or should he switch to WR (at duke)....

i think his best shot would be to try to relearn and play QB (maybe shock the world at northern iowa or something after one year)....he will not be a standout WR anywhere (by standout i mean get a shot at the nfl....he is no crabtree)

i find this interesting...it really puts how rare deion, bo, even gonzalez, peppers, curry and gates are....

Bill simmons ranking players all over the league

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/090415

emeka will love this as it erroneously, indirectly supports starting a team around chris paul (having a CRAZY quiet season) rather than dwight (questioning his effort) but bill does not account for upside and potential....he is merely ranking MVPs skipping a few every now and then....thus you have to read dwight's and chris paul's

my favorites are elton's, zach's, vince's ("he's trying tonight"), AI's, stuckey's, nate's (no one has ever won a title with a 5'7 PG that does not pass), boris's (offer insight as to why you always fire coaches first) and kidd's (with cuban's made-up stat to justify trading harris)

he puts d wade's triumphs in perspective

he puts the contributions of kevin love (stop sleeping), troy murphy (he has been good but never played for a winning franchise EVER), and anderson (ok here's where he loses me) in perspective

he is bordeline blasphemous in ranking ray allen with other shooters....

The next Spike Lee Joint - Kobe Bryant Documentary

NBA awards

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?page=MVP-0809

ESPN analysts give their picks....i will give you who should win (and who will actually win).

ROY---D. Rose (D. Rose)
6thMOY---J Terry (J Terry)
COY---S Van Gundy (same)
DPOY---D Howard (same)....wow emeka no chris paul. " i am taking chris paul over dwight"
MIOY---D Harris (same)..."the shot" will win it for him
MVP---D Wade (Lebron)....i think d wade does more with so much less and his story to get there is more impressive....i was shocked not to see any kobe votes (that's bullshit....it should not ba a runaway for king james with kobe a distant 3rd). i think kobe should win out of guilt from writers since he was robbed out of 2 already....this also poses a problem when ppl are ranking players and they say crap like "mj has this many mvps" but guys are getting snubbed on bullshit. just like when lebron didn't make the allstar team his rookie year even though he should have...."he was just too young." or when nash didn't get his third consecutive mvp...the one he was most deserving of (dirk's trophy---pleassseeee)....

Hip-Hop confessions



so what are yours? here's mine:
- Never thought 2pac was top 10 dead or alive. he's subpar lyrically, just so emotional you HAD to feel him. like the 2nd dude, i never bought a Pac album until after he died, i've got the greatest hits joint now.
- can't listen to Too $hort for more than 15 minutes.
- love bass music (Scarred, Toostie Roll, Da Dip, Whoomp there it is, Do Do Brown, etc, Scrub the ground, Bankhead Bounce, etc...)
- never got into Run-DMC, just didn't really like those dudes.
- feel Slick Rick is top 10 dead or alive off 1 CD and the work with Dougie Fresh.

that's all 4 now...
