Deja Vu

The latest update on the porn store lottery winner happened friday. A man came forward at the press conference as part of a lottery group. He said he doesnt play the lottery and he doesnt know who bought the lottery ticket at the porn store that is also connected to Deja Vu strip club. I put the link below. The comments section of any site where you find this story are full of the religious people who condemn gambling and porn stores fighting with the people who dont like to pass judgement on what other people choose to legally do with their hard earned money.

The titans play the dolphins and this is of course the debut of Randy Moss. I dont have a good feeling about the game because Vince Young may be hurt and Kerry Collins will have to start if VY cant play. I would still pick the Titans to win anyway but I have more confidence in Vince under center. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Thanks to all the Veterans on this Veterans Day weekend. Thank you for your service to your country.

Jessi

The Boondocks Season 3 DVD came out today so make sure you go pick it up. It may be the last season so go support the show please. One place you cant pick up the Boondocks DVD is a porno store but apparently you can buy lottery tickets. Someone in Detroit just one the $128.6million dollar powerball jackpot at Uptown Book Store(porno store). This was michigans first powerball jackpot win ever and it follows
the $140million megamillions jackpot win in the same week.(The link is below) Congrats to the michigan winners and if its a married man or woman just tell your spouse you were late and that was the only place that sold lottery tickets. That story may not fly because there is a gas station across the street that sells them too. Plus how can your spouse be mad about your porn store visit when you just won 9 figures in the lottery before taxes. Worst case scenario you end up a divorced which means you will be a single millionaire with the freedom to do anything you want without having to run it by a partner first.

I watched a new show on MTV called World of Jenks and this episode was about a Titans cheerleader. I attended college with a young woman on the Titans cheerleading squad so I wanted to see if she popped up in the show(she did). The show was really good it was about Jessi who moved from cali to nashville to slow her life down and be truly happy again. I wont ruin the end for you so check it out on mtv.com or on demand if you cant catch the rerun on MTV. Jessi seems really nice and she will make some lucky guy a great wife.

Megamillions is $25 million for tonight and powerball is $20 million for wednesday.

RM

The RM stand for Mister Randy Moss. Randy Moss is now a Tennessee Titan. I cant begin to explain how shocked I was to hear this and I didnt sleep for 24 hours after my friend called me and told me about it. This reminds me of that Chris Rock joke where he said if you have any work you need done the day after Obama becomes president it wont get done if black people are there. I have been way off every since the news broke its really funny. The Titans are such a conservative team I cant believe they did this so im not allowed to bash them for not going after a big named free agent anymore. The only bad news is that the Titans have a bye week this weekend so I have to wait another week to see Randy in that blue #84 jersey. Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon sounded like some dummies on PTI last week. They kept talking about Kerry Collins should start over Vince Young so Kerry can throw it deep to Randy Moss. You would think those two primadonnas would have a special team of people to look at games and stats so they wouldnt talk with their heads up their butts like that. Vince Young as of this week is the NUMBER ONE ranked quarterback in passer rating and Vince is number two in passes completed over 20 yards downfield. Vince throws a great deep ball one of the best in the NFL but Wilbon is too busy kissing up to celebrities and chasing blondes to know that. The Titans are also the number 2 ranked scoring team in the NFL. Kornheiser proved he hates nashville when he was in the monday night football booth not being funny and he kept making elvis references and other things that are Memphis staples not nashville staples. In tonys mind it doesnt matter because who cares about the south they are all the same. Now if Vince and Moss play really well they will say on PTI that Moss is making Vince a great quarterback instead of saying Vince already threw a great deep ball he just needed someone on the team who can catch the ball most of the time finally. If I wasnt broke I would buy a Moss jersey to wear to the remaining home games. I have never felt more like a Super Bowl was possible. They should have drafted Randy and the Titans would have 2 or 3 super bowl wins right now. Moss would have scored that touchdown in the super bowl standing up that Dyson stretched out a yard short. Another thing about Kornheiser on PTI is he always thinks that black people are racist but white people arent. When a white person says or does something the most he will do is call it insensitive but when its Torii Hunter talking about latin players Kornheiser called him racist and he also called Dwayne Wade racist when he dressed up like Justin Timberlake for Halloween with makeup on his face but he then said Tropic Thunder was one of his favorite movies. So in Kornheisers mind its ok to have a white guy(Robert Downey Jr) dressed like a Don Cheadle(black guy) twin for an entire movie but Dwayne Wade cant dress like Timberfake for Halloween or its racist. I can only stomach that Kornheiser guy when I know they will be talking about the Titans now. He used to be funny bouncing off Wilbon but it may be time for him to retire because he has lost his funny edge and now sounds like an old fart grumpy about everything young guys do. I thought it was funny when he would quote Lil Wayne lines that some young intern probably wrote for him but now he is just irritating. It was a break from lame ass corny ass Scott Van Pelt who quotes rap and tries to sound like Eminem and Stuar Scott combined and he thinks he is cool when he does at least Kornheiser knew he was being lame in a funny way.

The local press is bashing the move and sounding like a broken record about team chemistry and weed use in his past but Tim Lincecum is a hippie hero and people just joke about his weed use but Moss is suddenly the head of BMF because he smokes weed so its sad to see a double standard. I dont know about you but if somebody at my job is a jerk that is their problem I will still do my job. If you let someone at work cause you to be a bad worker then you deserve to be fired along with them. Do your job and focus on your own performance. That is why you hear players say they loved playing with Moss and TO because the media picks certain players to make look like the Devil as Jackie McMullen loves to call Randy Moss. All the racist players in the history of Boston sports and Jack McMullen chose this one guy to call the devil, I wonder why?(One guy said call her jack mcmullen because she looks like an ugly man). Some peope say that stupid because he may only be on the team for 8 regular season games(crossing fingers post games maybe even super bowl). Who cares about wasting money on a jersey, if the Titans can finally take a chance I can too. SPeaking of taking a chance the powerball is 123 million for tonight and the megamillions is 25 million for tuesday. In honor of Randy Moss you know I want that lottery jackpot in "straight cash homie."A canadian couple won the lottery and gave most of it away I will put the link down below.

I dont normally say positive things about Oprah and Tyler Perry but I have to give them credit this time for doing a 2 day show about men who were molested. They have 200 men in the audience and it is an important show. People joke when they talk about boys being molested for some reason its not a big deal. The same jokes happen when Men are physically abused and they go to jail all the time when police show up because they dont believe a woman can beat a man in domestic abuse cases. I saw a show on this topic and men said they stay because of the kids and because they are ashamed to tell anyone. So I have to give Oprah credit for this show being historic really.

Some fans are saying Oprah timed the special to preceed her Jackson family show because of Michael Jacksons multiples molestation charges. Oprah also did a molestation show around the same time as Michael trial. Oprah should really do a show on Women who molest young girls like the incidents that happened at her african school. Oprah doesnt like to say bad things about women that would hurt her branding alot if she did. Even when Oprah did a show on the female teachers who molest male students she had women who werent in jail and they had written books about it like they were Jackie Collins writing an erotic novel. The most I remember Oprah saying is something like"If you were a man we would want you locked up." Wow really Oprah? We all know the hypocrisy behind women who molest and men who molest and doing a show celebrating the women who do it as some type of cougar pouncing on a cub will just help promote that type of activity.

I will end with some funny and if you havent ready Lil Duvals twitter you need to go to it he is really funny. He does go at Raz B which falls into the category of people joking about people who were molested so that isnt funny to me. He went harder at Eddie Long which would be going after the person who molested so he goes after both but I wanted to let you know so you wouldnt think I was laughing at the same subject I just blasted people for laughing at(did that make sense?)I didnt want you to think I was being a hypocrite. Engligh 50 cent was also a funny twitter he was giving translations to 50 cent tweets but 50 doesnt post as much now. I found them when I was looking for more episodes of Hood State of the Union. They must cost alot to make because they havent done one in awhile. So try and Stay positive(I know its hard just look at my post it was up and down in mood), stay focused and enjoy life everybody.

Week 4

LeBron James was interviewed on CNN and he said he felt race played a factor in the backlash to his decision. I agree with LeBron because alot of athletes change teams to chase more money but this time it was for less money and to chase after a championship ring. The owner lashed out like a maniac. The fans burned LeBron jerseys on youtube and used the N-word many times. The fans also made fun of the way LeBron speaks. If you quote someone like Les Myles and laugh at a quote that doesnt make sense that is one thing but the fans who happened to be white did a disgusting impersonation of what they consider an uneducated african american man sounds like. This is the type of impersonation none of those fans would dare do to an African American mans face especially one LeBrons size.

Also backing up LeBrons point about race is his inclusion on a list of the 6 most hated athletes. Sportsuntapped.com points out that all 6 are in fact African American men. LeBron basically just changed jobs but he is rated above an alleged multiple rapist like Ben Roethlisberger.

The Titans prepare for Week 4 against the Denver Broncos. The Titans are 2-1 and Vince Young was pulled out of a game against the Steelers in Week 2. The game was ugly but it opened with a kickoff return for a touchdown and the offensive line has not played well all season but Vince is the only one taking heat for that loss. Reporters locally wanted Vanderbilts Jay Cutler to be drafted over Young and even recent 3rd stringer Matt Leinart was considered a better option. Vince is the only one who led his team to the playoffs and he has more wins and 2 pro bowls. Cutler is an interception machine but the local guys love to bash VY any chance they can. So they leaked from coaches im sure that Vince was late to meetings and missed a meeting during Steeler week. The offensive line and special teams must have missed meetings too because they also played poorly and at least VY had 2 good weeks out of 3 the offensive line is currently 0-3 as far as good games. Since Cutler isnt available the local media wasnt Kerry Collins(yes that kerry collins) to start. Actually Jeff Fisher wants Kerry to start and im sure Jeff prays every play that Vince will break his leg so he can stick Kerry in there. Fisher and the local media think Kerry Collins is Kurt Warner and Brett Favre combined. Bill Simmons said on PTI that Kerry Collins shouldnt start over Vince Young because, "Kerry Collins was washed up 2 years ago." The owner likes Vince and unfortunately he also likes Fisher. Fisher is allergic to playoff wins so as a Titans fan you pray the team just plays really hard and doesnt let Fisher stench of playoff failure stop them from winning it all one year hopefully this year.

The powerball and megamillions keep getting hit so much that you dont see the 200 and 300 million dollar jackpots these days. Dont get me wrong 2grand would be great right now but the dreams start up when you think about having a high 8 figures or a low 9 figures to play with. I have already decided I will blow through 75% of the winnings no matter how big it is and put 25% in the bank. Blowing through 75 million has to be a sin in every religion but lottery winnners have done it before and some will do it again. That last Curse of the Lottery was the worst case scenario nightmares I would worry about. I put a link below from lotterypost about the episode. Check on your states lottery website for any drawings or sweepstakes. Dont always just focus on the homeruns like powerball and megamillions. Any amount of money you can basically win for free would be nice in this economy or any economy actually. Right now the powerball is 48 million for saturday and the megamillions is 32 million for friday. Many blessing to you and yours.

Football Friday

Tony Dungy was bashed by the media because he said Reggie Bush should give back his heisman. A week later that is exactly what Reggie Bush did and no one has apologized to Dungy. Dungy just answers the questions he is asked he doesnt try to be the Pope of the NFL or anything. He isnt sin free but if you ask him a question he will answer it with his opinion. Dungy isnt forcing you to be a Christian or attend his church he just tell you how he feels.

The Bush story relates to my Titans because Vince Young was in 2nd place that year. The media who say Vince shouldnt get the trophy would be singing a different tune if Tim Tebow was 2nd that year or locally the way they worship the King of Interception Island, Jay Cutler, they would start a hunger strike around here if the trophy was vacated instead of given to Cutler if he was in 2nd place.

The titans are 1-0 after beating the raiders opening weekend. Right now Vince Young leads the NFl in passer rating so I am bragging as much as I can until Sunday at least,ha ha. I was at the game and some guys behind me kept complaining about Vince and wanting Kerry Collins in so you cant keep some people happy and as long as the titans win those guys will look dumb not Vince.

I won a contest at work and got a chance to sit in the company box at the titans game instead of my regular seats. If I had a choice between Tyra Banks and a titans luxury suite/box I would take the box everytime. Leather seats,flat screen tv's,all the food you can eat,private bathrooms no lines were nasty you know whats have urinated on the floor and you cant sit on the toilet without your pants or shoes wading in half an inch of urine. I hate that I am in the club section and they cant respect the bathrooms better than a gas station bathroom. I think it has to be a pissed off worker or something because its every freaking game and I get there early because I have no life outside of the lottery playing and watching the titans. Anyway I digress so the box has no downside it is a sports fans dream and you can close or open the windows depending on temperature. Even if you dont like sports(Like most of the women I saw up there in high heels,diamonds and furs) you will still love being in one. So I would spend my lottery winnings on a luxury suite without blinking an eye. The TN Lottery has a contest where you can win a suite for next season so I have entered and I hope i win. It will be weird winning and walking amongst the millionaires and billionaires knowing this is only temporary for me as I leave in my 20 year old american car and my dirty tennis shoes. Much like a strip club it is a temporary fantasy that would be created because at the end of the game I knew it wasnt my box and I knew I wasnt rich just like a strip club you know you arent that handsome that in normal life women will plop down in your lap and pretend to want to have sex with you. Speaking of Tyra Banks if I chose her over the box I am sure she would cheat on me many times so I might as well be with a tyra look alike from sugardaddyforme.com,roffle.(This blog does not promote or encourage tricking in any form. You will ultimately feel empty and hollow like a real loser after she leaves you for a guy with more money.)

Long story short visiting the suite makes me want to win the lottery even more. Louis CK does a great joke about how rich people dont know what its like to be poor but poor people know what its like to be rich because he fantasize about it everyday. He mentioned wiping his butt with a bunny rabbit and throwing it out of the window just because he is rich. If you know Louis Ck thats mild imagery compared to most of his genius standup. His show ended its first season so check that out On Demand or where you can find it. Its Always sunny in philly started back up and Boondocks had the season and probably series finale.

I dont know if you followed the Ines Sainz story but I put a link below from Jason Whitlock who lets loose with the funny and the common sense as usual. Dana Jacobson acts like women reporters are Doctors looking at patients who could careless about seeing naked men in great shape. Jackie Macmullan ripped Clinton Portis for his comments but Portis already apologized so Jackie was the one out of line. She talked about being 50 and married with kids and just wanting a story...huh? What does her being old or married have to do with anything? Do people stop having sex at 50 now? There will be mass suicides at the age of 49 in the future if that is true. Women journalists are not doctors and seeing an attractive naked man for a Straight woman will make her feel the same way a man feels. If women didnt lust and have urges like men then why are their male strip clubs that only let women in as customers? If this is really a civil rights issue then let men in womens locker rooms. The best solution is what Blaine Bishop and Keith Olberman said which is just let all genders of journalists wait until the men are dressed and interview them in the media room. I can remember Jackie getting mad about some athletes who left a blow up sex doll in the locker room with a bat stuck up her you know what and it was labeled"slumpbuster." She called it sexist and terrible and blah blah blah. If you really NEED to be in the lockers with naked men to get immediate reactions then you may hear and see some things you never heard from men before. They should have to change their jokes so it wont offend a bunch of outsiders(men and women) who should be there anyway. Jackie is trying to drag this out so clinton is labeled as a sexist and that is wrong. Jackie is from boston and many journalists and athletes there have been accused of saying and doing racially insensitive things BUT they always apologize and Jackie doesnt hold them up as racists forever and ever. If portis plays for the Patriots Jackie would have been fine with the apology and not needed to blast him like that on ESPN.

ESPN has many rumors of infidelity and coworkers having sex with each other and people have been fired or quit after the affairs were exposed. Most of the people who work for ESPN are just like most of America in that they look average or below average so the ladies of ESPN expect us to believe they are so attracted to average looking coworkers they will risk their careers by having sex but when they are in locker rooms there is no physical attraction with in shape nude athletes. I will pat Jemele Hill on the back because her article about the subject was very well written and used common sense. Basically the woman was dressed like she went to a singles bar late at night and a few guys acted like some drunk or aggressive guys talk to ladies dressed that way at bars.

You cant scream about double standards but ignore them when they work in your favor. Women in mens locker rooms is a double standard if male reporters arent allowed in womens locker rooms. Men are instantly assumed to be animals with no self control and that is garbage. The same double standards happen when the police show up to a domestic abuse and almost always arrest the man unless they see the woman hit him. Sometimes they see her hit him and they just step in they dont arrest her. In divorce court and child support or custody hearings the scales of justice are heavily in the womans favor. There are bad mother and great father you can assume the woman will always be the best option for the long term care of the child. The most recent bias has been with female teachers getting a pat on the back from courts and a commendation for raping young boys. Like they did them a favor ushering them into manhood. If the male teachers are disgusting predators who need chemical castration these women are also predators who usually have been with more than one boy. Molestation isnt a fetish people try out once if that is what they like or are attracted to then they will continue to do it and the women and men need to be handled the same in court because the mental health of the children is what matters and having that happen to a young victim is a negative I dont care what gender bias you have.

The megamillions is 12 million for tuesday and the powerball is 20 million for wednesday. So you may want to try your luck out. Congrats to the winner in georgia of the 112 million powerball and the 54 million megamillions winner in New York.

Speaking of New York remember when Dateline tried to get the NY Lottery to go along with an investigation to see if the clerks would steal? NY lottery even sent out warnings to the clerks and stores to watch out because Dateline may try to "trick" you into stealing a ticket. Well that arrogance of the NY Lottery came back to bite them on the butt. A man had his ticket stolen by a clerk in NY and lucky for him it was returned and he now has his 14 million minus taxes. The new york post story is below. To avoid having your ticket stolen or cashed by someone else sign your ticket and check the results online,on tv,in the newspaper or if you dont have any of those call the lottery hotline for the numbers. Dont trust any clerk even your relatives to check a ticket and be honest with you. Money of any amount especially in a recession brings out the wolves.

Now that’s a “Lotto” luck!

A retired Queens transit worker today collected a $14 million Lotto payoff — but only after a sneaky deli clerk who swiped the winning ticket from him coughed it up when confronted by cops.

“I’m thrilled!” said Milledge McCassell, 72, of Laurelton, the lucky ticket holder. “Winning Lotto is a great thing!”

However, McCassell’s massive windfall came thisclose to not happening because of a store clerk’s sticky fingers.

Now the Queens DA is investigating the unidentified clerk — and New York Lottery officials have suspended the lottery sales license of the Jamaica store where he had worked.


Dennis Clark
Milledge McCassell won $14 million from the NY State Lottery.
“It’s just like the movie ‘Lottery Ticket,” said McCassell’s granddaughter Ebony Largo, referring to the recent Bow Wow flick about a lottery winner who fends off greedy neighbors. “It’s unbelievable.”

On Aug. 25, McCassell visited the Ideal Stop, Dairy and Grill in Laurelton, where the ex-signalman paid $2 to buy four randomly generated “Quick Pick” Lotto tickets for that night’s drawing.

‘He’s our best customer,” said store owner Hussein Mused. “He’s always in here buying breakfast. He likes to buy the $1 and $2 Lotto.”

The next day — unaware that six numbers on one of his tickets had hit for the $14 million first-prize jackpot — McCassell went to another lottery vendor, Dynasty Deli and Grocery on Jamaica Avenue in Jamaica.

There, McCassell himself checked the tickets on an electronic scanner available to customers.

When he did, the scanner flashed the thrilling message: “Big Winner!”

“I knew I was a big winner,” McCassell said today. “I just didn’t know how much.”

McCassell excitedly then gave the ticket to a clerk in the store so it could be scanned in another machine, which would reveal exactly how he had won.

But when the clerk scanned the ticket, he gave McCassell a shock.

The clerk “told him that it wasn’t a big winner,” said New York Lottery Director Gordon Medenica today.

When McCassell asked for the ticket back, the clerk told him “he had lost the ticket,” Medenica said.

“The clerk said, ‘I already threw it away,’ or something like that.”

Because McCassell hadn’t signed the ticket, anyone turning it in to Lottery officials would have been able to collect on its $14 million payoff.

McCassell today said, “I knew something wasn’t right, so the next day I went to another retailer I trusted” — Mused’s store, which had sold him the winning ticket. “It was a long, panic-filled day.”

Mused said, “He told me that he went there, he scanned the ticket, and wouldn’t give it back to him.”

“He went back three times to get the ticket,” Mused said. “And then I went back with him. I told him I’d help him get back his ticket.”

“The people at the deli said they had never seen him, and didn’t know what he was talking about. I felt bad for him. I couldn’t believe they took the lottery [ticket] from him.”

McCassell’s bad luck changed big-time Aug. 27, after he and Mused notified Lottery officials, who in turn alerted State Police.

When State Police investigators and McCassell went to Dynasty Deli that day.

“Miraculously, the clerk in question ‘found’ the missing ticket,” said Medenica of the Lottery.

Lottery officials believed McCassell was the ticket’s rightful owner, they said, because computer records corroborated his story about buying the winning ticket in Mesed’s Jamaica store on Aug. 25 and then having it scanned the next day in Dynasty Deli.

After the clerk surrendered the “missing” ticket, State Police immediately took McCassell to Lottery offices in Garden City, LI, where he turned in the now-signed ticket and received a receipt.

Taha Derham Al Saidi, owner of Dynasty Deli, today said, “The guy doesn’t work here anymore“ when asked about the clerk who had withheld McCassell’s ticket.

Saidi, whose store has been stripped of lottery vending machines and scratch-off tickets by state officials, then kicked a Post reporter out of the store.

Today, McCassell officially received his long-awaited, once-imperiled cash prize.

“I’m just anxious to get my money,” he said.

McCassell elected to receive a lump-sum payment of $8.7 million, which after taxes ends up being $5.5 milloin.

He said he still hasn’t “made up my mind” about how to spend that loot.

Frosty

My Super Bowl pick is the packers versus the titans with the titans winning. Chuck Klosterman had the same choice on Bill Simmons podcast so he is cool with me now for picking the titans on such a public scale. Skip Bayless picked the Titans and Cowboys to play in the Super Bowl. They called Skip a homer because he went to Vanderbilt which is in nashville just like the Titans and Skip covered the Cowboys. I dont care why Skip did it I am just happy he did. Drew Magary of Deadspin and some other places picked the Titans/Saints for the Super Bowl. I like Drews Mailbag on Deadspin so go there and support him and any other stuff he does. He picked the saints to win it but at least he picked the Titans to go. Go Titans!!!

I finall tried the dipping my fries in a Wendy's Frosty. Im a tough critic of fast food so I cant say that I loved it. I will try it again because it may have to grow on me with the sweet and salty mixture like Kettle Corn did. The titans games usually result in the fans getting free Wendy's and now even Coke Zero.

TLC has been showing new episodes of Lottery Changed My Life. Right now im waiting on Curse of the Lottery 2 to start on the E channel. Lottery is becoming an even bigger business with the wild economy of ours. For some reason people will find a way to feed their vices of paying for smoking,drinking,sex,fast food or gambling. Gambling stands out so much now because reality sets in for some people that they are too old to be a professional athlete in a major sport and they may not be attractive enough to marry a rich person who will take care of them. If building millions from the ground up isnt working out and you live check to check then the lottery seems like a waste of money because of the odds but it seems attractive at only one dollar a play.

Dateline NBC had another sting operation on lottery clerks stealing tickets in the link below. California officials helped Dateline but the New York lottery sent out a warning to all clerks that Dateline was trying to "trick" them into stealing tickets. The director of the NY lottery even called Dateline and organization that uses entrapment. I have heard this entrapment excuse when Dateline bust those child rapists on To Catch a Predator. The director said the clerks are tempted to steal because you brought them a ticket that was so large. What??? I dont care how many underage kids email you asking to hang out or to talk to you, you dont reply and you block them once you know they are under 18. I dont care how much the lottery ticket is worth you don't steal it.

Footlong Cheeseburger

Hardees or Carls Jr depending on where you live is testing out a Footlong Cheeseburger. They make it really hard to lose weight with so much fast food being cheap BUT it is still a matter of choice just like buying a lottery ticket. It is up to the individual to choose to spend their money that way. I dont like the people who say dont have casino or lottery type gambling because they are addicts and crimes follows. Crime doesnt need an invitation it will pop up anywhere. People can become addicted to anything that isnt done in moderation so dont punish the rest of us so that small percentage isnt tempted locally. If they want it bad enough they will move to a place to get it or order it online.

The titans signed Chris Johnson and they let Keith Bulluck go home to NYC and sign with the Giants. Bulluck who played her 10 years didnt get a call from the titans since February. The titans deny that but of course I stopped listening to them along time ago. Bud is just happy he saved money by not having to pay Keith Bulluck. Keith was great around the city with charities and he was didnt get the attention he deserved because of the smaller market but now that he is in NYC, ESPN and the NFL network will start looking at his career stats and understand how good he always was. Keith took out a full page ad in the Tennessean (our states largest paper) to thank us fans for supporting him while he was here. That is why I believe keiths version of the story over the titans because they threw away so many players when they got older and locked out Steve McNair.

Mike"Napoleon Complex" Lupica went off on LeBron today on the Sports Reporters. ESPN is piling on LeBron and the entire country is treating him like a criminal. The man played out his contract and changed jobs that is all. He even took less money for a chance to win. Lupica blew off the less money argument but he is highly paid and we know he wouldnt take less money to do his job. LeBron didnt give alcohol and maybe rape women like Big ben,he didnt have a kobe in colorado situation, he didnt kill anybody like donte stalworth and he didnt get arrested with drugs or anything illegal or unethical. Lupica put LeBrons image hit above Tiger"I will sex any woman even though I can afford to pay supermodels for sex"Woods and Rick"15 seconds of good lovin"Pitino. Lupica and all the high and mighty crowd are barking up the wrong tree. If you are in cleveland then as a fan you can say alot but at the end of the day he gave you 7 years of mvp type basketball. These non cleveland fans taking the chance to bash LeBron as the new evil athlete are being hypocrites.

LeBron was paid to host some parties in vegas and thanks to Deadspin for retrieving the story after ESPN pulled it off their page after a few hours. The story was very tame by Vegas standards, hell it was tame by nashville standards. I had more fun than LeBron when I went to vegas so the story being blown up like a Caligula bachelor party weekend was bullcrap. They just wanted another chance to bash LeBron. They should be this outraged when an athlete hits his wife or girlfriend or when he or she gets a DUI. Drunk drivers could kill and do kill alot of people. It is no joke but the same high and mighty press who are all jealous of LeBrons age and money cant wait to beat him like a pinata. ESPN is such a joke and 24 hour commercial for their sponsors now that I use "press" and "media" very loosely when describing them.

Congrats to the person who just won the Powerball in Louisiana. The powerball is back down to 20 million for wednesday August 4th and the megamillions for tuesday August 3rd is 42 million. Good luck at whatever you are doing.

Undateable

VH1 has a show called Undateable. They list 100 reasons why some men are undateable and there is also a book about it. The show was entertaining but I missed the first 20 so I looked for the list online and posted it below. Full disclosure Im guilty of well over 50 of these things but I know I havent done all 100 so that gives me hope. I dont think people in the south say Cunt so I know I havent used that word before. My first time hearing it was a movie.

Mel Gibson used the Cunt in his latest racist and sexist rant. Mel called his baby mama a "pig" and a "cunt" because of her greed for money and the way she dressed. Mel topped of the rant by telling her he hopes she gets raped by a "pack of n*ggers". I knew Mel getting a 40 year old russian woman was a mistake because she isnt a young 20 year old trying to party anymore she is an old woman who wants financial security and no games. Mel is too old to be falling for game like that but he did now he wants to call her names and be a racist. Mels career may be over after this but he has so much money he doesnt care. Danny Glover is the person most of us want to hear a reply from now but it wont shock me if Danny takes up for Mel. Danny is friends with Fidel Castro adn Hugo Chavez so Danny is used to having to defend wild things his friends say and do.

Chris Simms ,the son of the legendary Giants quarterback Phil Simms, was arrested on suspicion of driving while stoned. Chris was driving his wife ,in New York, who is 8 months pregnant and 2 other people. Jeff Fisher has lost control of this team but no one wants to say that. I can remember growing up and the Dallas Cowboys would get in off the field trouble but they won 3 super bowls with that team. Maybe the Titans will do the same thing but this team isnt as talented as that Cowboys team. Chris Johnson and Courtland Finnegan are the only players on the team who could start for any team at their position. The rest of the players are average to below average but I want them to crossover and become stars on the field especially Vince Young.

91st

Landon Donovan scored the winning goal for the US in the 91st minute to advance to the round of 16. Soccer purists say it isnt the biggest USA win in soccer ever but it is in the top 5. Donovans dad actually lives here in Nashville. Landon also used the big goal as a chance to let his ex wife know he still loves her and wants to get back. I put the link to his love story below. That concludes the Landon Donovan useless facts portion of our show.


Dead Prez has a hot mixtape out. In the mixtape they address the Drake line he lifted from them. When I first heard Drake say it i knew Dead Prez couldnt be too happy about the most "commercial" rappers in years using their line.

The Boondocks took aim at Tyler Perry in another funny episode last week. Everything they said about him and his works is absolutely true. That Boondocks episode is 10 times better than anything Tyler Perry has ever put out. Tyler Perry uses the Showtime at the Apollo approach to writing, as long as you mention Jesus you dont get booed no matter how bad you are. I can remember Jay Anthony Brown taking Tyler to task over always making the dark skinned black man the evil liar and the light skinned guy the Christian hero to save the day for the black woman. Tyler laughed it off but Jay was speaking the truth.


Rick Flair is doing commercials for the Tennessee megamillions so I cant stop laughing when I hear his "Woo". Rick will sell alot of tickets because people love wrestling down here. The Powerball is 20 million and the megamillions is 12 million. The NBA draft is tonight so John Wall will become a very rich man when he is drafted by the Chocolate City Wizards.

Wrap up

The real sports seasons have wrapped up now because baseball is too early to matter now. The Lakers beat the Celtics in game seven last night so congrats to them and their fans.

Vince Young went to 3 charity events saturday and decided at the last minute to cap off his night with a strip to Onyx strip club in Dallas. Their website advertises $2 lap dances so its not a shock VY ended up fighting in place like that. That place sounds like a broke mans heaven but VY has too much to lose and he has to be smarter where he goes and who he lets bait him. I feel like im the only one in Vinces corner sometimes because there are fans here who want the rookie to start over VY this year. The Titans receivers will drop the ball they dont care if Joe Montana is back there. Joe Montana said VY would win many superbowls but that was during his rookie season. I want VY to prove Montana and me right but leading this team to the super bowl.

The world cup is still going on so I have to sort of pay attention so I can see if the teams I bet on actually win. So far its best to choose the team that says win or draw because of the low scores. You can say alot about soccer guys to make fun of them but you cant hate on their WAG's(wives and girlfriends). I think I actually started drooling when I saw some of those models. In america skinny is in for the big time models but in the latin countries the women who dominate the advertisements are curvy like our american video girls. You can debate forever if the women are with the guys for their looks, personality or money but if you need motivation to get rich those women could provide it. Of course the smart person wouldnt date anyone who just wanted them for their money but thats another long post entirely.

Speaking of money the powerball is 78 million for saturday and the megamillions is 17 million for friday. Enjoy your very hot weather weekend folks.

Hip Hop Honors the South

I watched the Vh1 Hip Hop Honors The Dirty South last night. I have to admit I didnt change the channel I enjoyed the show. I wanted to see Outkast perform but at least they have a new single out "Looking For Ya" that will be on Big Boi's solo album. Bow Wow did a good job and it was nice to see Diddy and Game show up to perform. Timbaland kept saying things like "Im too big for the box of hip hop or pop im too big I will bust out of that. Im full of all that." The fat jokes had to pop into the head of everyone in the audience because they all started giggling like schoolgirls. Lil Romeo shouted out Vince Young and Chris Johnson during his No Limit tribute set so you know I loved that.


Cool Breeze performed last night and I can remember his first album was a real southern classic. Chris Rock was on MTV buying(pretending to steal) a CD a few years ago and when he got in the car it was the clean version so he took it back. That is what I did the first time I bought the Cool Breeze album but it turns out he just didnt curse alot on it. Artists can be creative and Cool Breeze chose to focus more on lyrics than profanity and trying to sound hard. When you hear it just remember what year it came out and how new alot of the slang on there was. Most people didnt start saying those words until they heard that album but Atlanta was already talking like that for years before. Xxlmag listed videos that were based on movies and Cool breeze and the Dungeon Family made it on with "Watch for the Hook" based on Reservoir Dogs. The article mentioned that the Dungeon Family has a catalog that could hang with the Wu Tangs catalog and when you include everyone like Killer Mike and Goodie Mob I have to agree its a legit argument.

Slim Thug is in hot water for comments he made about black women being materialistic. I put the link below and he also talked about black men needing to prioritize and not spend all their money on rims when they have bills to pay. The mistake Slim made was saying anything negative about women in public, period because you cannot win and you will not win that argument. The second mistake he made was in about 5 paragraphs he only spent 2 sentences on men so it was uneven and made it look like woman bashing. Thug made valid points but you have to wait for one of those lame Tavis Smiley"Black men are no good especially that Obama who wouldnt comeback on my show"debates. Tavis and Michael Eric Dyson have these debates like once a month were single women will blame every problem in their life on all men. Luckily I have never been bored enough or brain damaged enough to watch any of them.


http://mediatakeout.com/41369/wtf_rapper_slim_thug_gives_a_controversial_interview____says_black_women_are_gold_diggers.html


The new argument made against paying Chris Johnson is that he will have less yards and never rush for another 2000 yards.REALLY? He wont rush for 2000 yards again you have to be kidding me? Only 6 men have ever done it and you want this man to do it every year just to earn a raise that you will never pay him. The titans would rather have Cj get hurt or cut him instead of having to pay him the money he has earned. Kobe Bryant has to score 81 every game to earn his contract and Tom Brady has to throw 48 touchdowns every season to earn his contract too right? This is so stupid you can be the best player at your position or even in the league and not have to win the championship or break records to do it. The titans need to stop pinching pennies and CJ what he is worth.

The powerball is 28 million and the megamillions is 26 million. Ohio Won the 261 million powerball jackpot so congratulations to the buckeye who snagged the quarter of a billion jackpot.

Good Music(No Kanye)

The best music I have found out right now is on mixtapes. Royce dropped the Bar Exam 3 today and it is hot just like 2 was. Rick Ross,Raekwon,Red Cafe,Fabolous,TI,Game and even Waka Flocka Flame(hot beats and hooks) all put out mixtapes that are hot.

Noreaga wins the award for the first rapper I have heard of who made a reference to LeBrons mother. Nore did it on the Raekwon mixtape and he is making fans want the War Report 2 even more now.

Short post today folks enjoy whats left of your Memorial Day weekend. Thanks to all of the service people who fight on behalf of USA.

The powerball jackpot for wednesday June 2nd is 260 million so get your tickets because that thing is ready to pop. The megamillions is 12 million for June 1st because someone in north carolina won it friday and it reset so congrats to the tarheel or dukie that picked up the winning ticket.

Wading Boots

The title Wading Boots is for the clean up that is still going on here in nashville and also for trying to walk around in the bull Jesse James is shoveling. Vicki Mabrey did a really good interview with Jesse James for Nightline. James was his normal laidback pretending to be shy self. Jesse blamed his mistakes as an adult on his alleged abuse as a child. No one would ever defend child abuse of any form but Jesse is using it as a crutch to act like a jerk right now.

Whoopi Goldberg defended Jesse on the View but of course because he has done the same things he has. Whoopi admits cheating many times on men in the past and present just like Jesse cheated on Sandra. Whoopi also got into a racial controversy over the blackface routine she wrote for her then boyfriend Ted Danson just like Jesse James is in hot water now for taking a picture wearing a Nazi hat and doing their salute.

I dont believe what happens to you as a child gives you a pass to treat others bad now. If you are abused or mistreated you should be more sensitive to not wanting to make others feel as badly as you did. You dont get the right to pay it forward in a negative way. One actor said you should go to counseling and move on but im not even saying that I dont put an age limit when you should no longer hurt from your childhood and forget it. You may be in therapy for life BUT you dont now have the right to abuse or mistreat others now because you were wronged in the past. That is a lame,cowards cop out that is used in court alot and I dont buy it one bit.

Sandra doesnt get enough blame for choosing a well known bad boy who has been married twice and once to a porn star. The odds were stacked against her that she could change him or keep him faitful so just as Jesse needs to take responsibility for his actions, Sandra needs to realize that she has chosen bad boys in the past for the excitement and this time he humiliated her on a worldwide scale. Did Sandra know about the Nazi fascination Jesse has? Maybe Sandra thought the Nazi stuff added to his bad boy image but it would be career suicide for her to admit that she knew about any Nazi things relating to Jesse. Sandra is being called Americas Sweetheart but i dont know when she took the crown from Julia Roberts. Julia or Halle Berry still have the crown but people are on Sandras side because of the situation so they keep calling her that.

I wanted Vicki Mabrey to ask Jesse what he will tell his adopted african american son about that Nazi photo. Jesse thinks the photo is funny and he feels like it is no big deal and only gets attention because of what he did to Sandra. Bombshell McGee also posed in Nazi clothes so for Jesse to find her sexy and have that in common is an enormous coincidence but most people think it was an attraction for both of them. If Jesse doesnt understand why Nazis arent funny to the rest of america than that adopted baby doesnt stand a chance of being raised with a healthy view on race relations. Sandra and Jesse both have been given a huge pass on the Nazi topic but I could careless about the cheating because im not in that relationship but the Nazi think would affect if I see anymore Sandra projects if she also thinks its no big deal.

On a MUCH brighter note the powerball is 220 million for saturday and congratulations to the person in New York who won the megamillions tuesday jackpot of 64 million. The megamillions is 12 million for friday. Enjoy the rest of your week folks.

Give until it hurts

If you want more information on the flood or some of the charities you can visit
http://www.nashville.gov/flood/
http://www.hon.org/HomePage/index.php/home.html

The Boondocks started up and the first episode had over 2 million viewers and the second had almost 2 million so keep tuning in so the ratings stay high. The episodes end up on Worldstarhiphop really fast after they air but try to watch it on cartoon network where it will count. Speaking of worldstarhiphop they have shirts and hats now. I dont know who would want to advertise for them publicly but you might as well wear a bangbros shirt if you are willing to wear a wshh one. You may watch some stuff online but you shouldnt be proud of all of it.

Taylor Swift donated 500 grand to the flood relief and bud adams donated 200 grand and got the nfl to match his donation so little Taylor Swift by herself donated more than those combined billionaires. Good for Taylor Swift and all the people helping out. Chris Johnson is scheduled to make 500 grand this season after rushing for 2000 yards so I support his holdout because Bud Adams is a cheapskate.

Splashville

Splashville is the name alot of nashville flood pics are under on twitter. I posted links,videos and photos below so the rest of the nation can see how bad things are here in nashville. The national media is busy covering the oil spill and the nyc car bomb. Those stories are also important but this is a huge disaster with no end in sight. The rain has stopped but the waters continue to rise. Cleaning up after the water goes down will be the big job and federal funds will be needed.

http://www.tennessean.com/article/20100503/SPORTS01/100503070/2162/UPDATED++LP+Field++Bridgestone+Arena+flooded

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Muddy waters poured over the banks of Nashville's swollen Cumberland River on Monday, spilling into Music City's historic downtown streets and causing damage to the city's professional sports facilities.


Five inches of water backed up through storm drains into the Bridgestone Arena, damaging dressing rooms and the floor where the NHL's Nashville Predators play.


"It seems to be coming in faster than we can pump it out," Predators senior vice president Gerry Helper told the Tennessean. "My understanding is that the water is actually coming up from below, up through the drains. It's not like it's coming from street level and down."


The event level that includes the Predators locker rooms and the area where the ice would be for games sits about two stories below ground level.


"We've got some costly stuff down there, from the locker rooms to the [TV] production rooms," Helper told the newspaper. "Clearly there is going to be some extensive damage."


Across downtown on the river's east bank, water covered the grass inside LP Field, home of the NFL's Tennessee Titans. The field's athletic surface was covered with water, nearly reaching the first row of seats.


"Water rose to [the] edge of the practice fields and the bubble, but has fallen back some," Robbie Bohren, the team's director of media relations, told the newspaper.


According to Bohren, the reason was because a nearby Nashville Electric Service substation had to be shut down due to the threat of flood waters. When the substation shut down, it cut power to the stadium, shutting off power to the stadium's pumps. The lack of pumps led to flooding at the stadium's service entrance and then the playing field, which sits at the lowest point of the complex.


Weekend storms dumped more than 13 inches of rain in two days in the Nashville area, leading to a quick rise of the Cumberland River and its tributaries.

White Horse

http://jezebel.com/5524040/the-truth-about-cocaine-vaginas
http://nfl.fanhouse.com/2010/04/27/how-dare-nfl-teams-question-myron-rolles-commitment-to-football/

The two links above represent some stories you may want to checkout. The first one is about Pam Grier and her new book about her life. The wild story she told is that her doctor talked about a cocaine buildup in her vagina. Pam says she didnt do drugs but she was having unprotected sex with Richard Pryor at the time. So her boyfriend Richard(I didnt know he dated her)had so much cocaine in his semen that it was leaving residue and he was also rubbing this expensive coke on his penis to stay erect. You guys wont complain about the price of your ED medicine anymore after hearing that story.

When I hear about couples who dated but didnt marry like John Tesh and Oprah,Jim Brown and Raquel Welch and now Pam and Richard I wonder how their careers would have been different if they chose to get married. Oprah especially would have been different because she has never been married before.

The second link is about the controversy over Myron Rolle dropping in the draft because he is considered to smart for the NFL. Clay Travis does a great job of explaining how dumb this idea is. Steve Young became a lawyer while he played for the 49ers even though most of it was done as a backup. Another draft pick one year chose to stay home and fish with his dad instead of going to the draft he was picked in the first round. Travis talked about how the NFL wants dumb players who only care about playing football and not outside interests. The NFL has no guaranteed contracts for a sport that is the most violent and profitable in the world. The players union is a joke and the NFL might as well not have a union like Walmart.

Rolle is a Rhodes Scholar who wants to be a doctor when his NFL career is over. Players who go to jail dont get picked apart like Rolle was by the NFL experts. The execs and coaches were not used to sitting in a room with a player who uses words they cant define and his intelligence intimidates them and they are too much of cowards to admit it. The biggest shock to me was the rumor that Tony Dungy of all people was on the side of Rolles critics. Dungy has helped Mike Vick get back into the NFL and other players who commited crimes and did bad things but if its true that Tony has a problem with a Rhodes Scholar playing football and questions his commitment level. I would lose alot of respect for Tony Dungy if that is true. Jemele Hill put it best when she said that Rolle just like Dungy knew he was destined for greater things in the ministry beyond football, Rolle is destined to open a clinic and help others through medicine. I couldnt find the negative comments from Dungy online so I hope it is not true.

The good news is the team who drafted Rolle is my titans so i get to root him on 8 times a year in person. I should get to meet him and the other players this summer and I will let him know how much I support what he wants to do on and off the field.

The titans had a good draft I would give it a B+ or A-. They addressed every need position but Fisher didnt get enough for Lendale White in my opinion and he drafted players from Montana and that is the team his son plays for. If you had any doubt that this was a favor and inside job, Fishers son actually called to tell one of the players he was just drafted. Fishers son isnt a titans employee so he should not have made that call. It was unprofessional and Goodell could have fined them but he has his hands full with Big Ben and morons in the front office of the dolphins asking Dez Bryant if his mother was a a prostitute. If Bryant had punched that guy in the eye I would have started a defense fund for Dez. What does Bryants mother beinga prostitute,stripper or whatever have to do with running down the field and blocking or catching a pass? Hire a detective to get information about a persons legal problems or their families problems but asking a disgusting question like that to a mans face should be enough to get a man fired in the NFL. The bucs asked Myron Rolle how it felt to desert his team when he left to go to study at Oxford for a year and now the Dolphins front office is asking dumb questions too. Most NFL fans will be cheering for both of those florida teams to stink it up this year as Karma. I know the jags are in florida too but you dont have to root for them to lose they will just do that anyway while they wait to move to LA in a few years.

The powerball is 30 million tonight and the megamillions is an amazing 224 million for fridays drawing so get your tickets if thats your thing. The powerball is low because it was won last thursday but Chris Shaw in Missouri. Shaw is 29 and he has 3 kids by two women and he lives with a woman who has 2 kids so he could really use the money. Most people have focused on the fact that he has his 2 front teeth missing but with the 258 million he won he can pay a man to chew up his food for him now. He didnt say he will buy new teeth and take all 5 kids to disneyland. So congratulations to him and his family.

Dhani

Dhani tackles the globe was good last night so make sure you catch the rest of the season. Shyne dissed 50 cent again. Shyne sounds really different now. I dont know if Shyne was faking his Biggie voice just to get signed to Bad Boy or if something actually happened to his voice in prison. Shyne gets alot of respect from rappers for doing his time and not snitching but his lyrics and energy better pick up if he wants to sell alot of records.

Roethlisberger is supposed to be suspended by Goodell soon. I am surprised that Goodell is doing this but no one can accuse him of racism after he finally comes down this hard on a popular white player. Jared Allen was recorded almost fighting a guy in bar over his future wife. Allen almost drank himself out of the NFL so to be caught in a bar and almost fighting was really dumb. Jared should let his spouse go to bars with her friends so he can avoid those temptations to drink and fight. If a guy can bait him into punching or shooting at him then a civil case wont be far behind. Roethlisberger accusers may be after money too but there is way too much smoke with Big Ben for none of the incidents to be true. A civil case isnt always like a lottery win because you still have to actually prove it and win the case.

Speaking of the lottery the powerball is 252 million for wednesday and the megamillions is 142 million for tonight. Hang in there and maybe its your week to win.


RIP GURU. Guru is a real legend.

Peabody

Good news and Bad news for Boondocks fans. The good news is the Boondocks won the Peabody award. The show is great on so many levels and I am happy they are being recognized. The bad news is the 3rd season that start may 2nd will be the last season. The fans can only hope another network lures them away for enough money to make a 4th season or maybe they will do some Boondocks movies.

Dhani tackles the Globe is coming back April 19th on the Travel Channel. Speaking of bad news the Duke Blue Devils won the National title again in college basketball. Duke had the easiest bracket to the Final Four and they made the most of it. Tiger is tied for third place in the masters right now. I think Tiger will win it all but he really made some mistakes saturday and he will need the power of his magic red shirt to focus in today.

Powerball and Megamillions are growing fast with the cross state promotions so Powerball is 175 million for wednesday and the Megamillions is 105 million for tuesday. I listen to that Fabolous and DJ Drama Funeral 2 mixtape almost everyday. Fabo killed every hot beat. Good luck and keep following your dreams.

Easter

Happy Easter to those of you who celebrate that. The pope had alot of controversy around Easter. I dont understand how covering up and moving around child molestors is ok with the Pope but when the President is invited to speak at Notre Dame its a problem because he supports a womans right to choose. Clergy who molest isnt a lifestyle choice or a quirk they are criminals like any other sicko and they need to be arrested and charged.

Donovan McNabb was traded on Easter from the Eagles to the Redskins. The Titans play both teams this season so this is a big story on many levels. Andy"Drug Emporium"Reid said he did it as a favor to McNabb instead of sending him to awful teams like the Bills or Raiders. Trading McNabb in the division is a real slap in the face because that means the Eagles see him as washed up and no threat.

I saw the trailer for "Lottery Ticket" and it looks entertaining. Bow Wow,Mike Epps,Loretta Devine,Ice Cube,Teara"getting thick very slowly"Marie and Bill Bellamy are some of the stars. I will see the movie just based on the lottery being involved but it looks like a funny movie and Mike Epps and Ice Cube were in another Lottery Movie "All About The Benjamins" and it was cool. Of course Eva Mendes looking really good helped alot too. Bill Bellamy has fallen off a little bit. He was on pace to be the next Will Smith type of comedy/action tv/movie go to guy but now he looks like he has a very small role in this movie.

You can watch the Lottery Ticket trailer on youtube or their website. Also on google there is a guy who calls himself the lottery burner. He rejects the notion that you need to win the lottery to be truly happy so he burns tickets that he bought on camera. It looks insane because right now the megamillions is 76 million and the powerball is 125 million so he is risking burning millions. The smart thing he does is point out that the odds are so bad that if after the drawing you didnt win anything, you may as well have burned the tickets or not played at all.

T Pain and Terry Crews were also in the trailer for Lottery Ticket. I was just reminded of that because Terry Crews is in some weird Body Wash commercial I think for Old Spice. I see Terry in reruns of Everybody Hates Chris so between that and his reality show maybe he will get offered more roles in big movies. I think the commercial was more of a money situation than actually trying to get his face out there.

For Your Health

Im trying to recover from my dead brackets like most of you. Tennessees men team has a chance to make the Final Four today and the womens team was beaten by Baylor. The same player who threw the haymaker for Baylor near the end of the regular season, helped Baylor knock Pat and the girls out of the tournament. ESPN,CBS,SOBE and even Yahoo have no perfect brackets left out of millions of entries so its not easy to win the millions and now everyone is waiting for next year to try again.

Speaking of Tennessee a man ran a car off the road here because they had an Obama bumper sticker. The victim had his 10 year old daughter in the backseat so it was really scary for them. The healthcare bill has sent tempers to a fever pitch but just like smart rappers keep it on wax, political debates shouldnt get physical like this.

The new Erykah Badu video "Window Seat" is a classic video for a great song so check it out and buy her album in 2 days. I dont want to ruin any suprises in the video for anyone so I cant comment on much but I will say Common and Dre 3000 had a reason to get sprung.

March Madness

March Madness is upon us and the sites offering a million dollars for a perfect bracket are Yahoo and Foxsports. That will be paid out over 40 years but add that to what you normally make a year and its a party. So dont be afraid to sign up and normally people who nothing about basketball do the best so try it out. ESPN and CBSSPORTS have 10grand contests for a perfect bracket because they are too afraid to offer a million just in case you get lucky and pick all the games right. The powerball is up to 200 million for saturday so you may want to donate a dollar to that as well because who the hell knows what may happen so why not.

Torii Hunter talked about how there are less blacks in baseball and he thinks no one complains because they count the latin players with the black players as minorities. Torii said it was cheaper to scout latin players instead of building inner city programs in america and baseball fields which is all true. Tony Kornheiser fresh off his suspension for running his mouth too much called Torii Hunters comments racist. Kornheiser took up for Mike Goldberg calling Dr. King a racial slur,Bruce Pearl joking about the KKK and tonys own racist comments heard off air of his radio show talking to a black staff member but now out of all those people he thinks Hunter is the only one who said something racist. Tony will talk himself out of a tv job as soon as they can find someone who gets the ratings he does. Tony can stay on radio forever because they dont really care what you say on there. Even Imus eventually got another job on radio making more money.

Allen Iversons wife filed for divorce and Stephen A Smith felt the need to tell the world that Iverson has a gambling and drinking problem. Ben Roethlisberger is catching another sexual assault charge this time in georgia. Tiger Woods is making preparations to play his first tournament of the year in a few weeks and may even play in the Masters. Woods hired Ari Fleischer for some strange reason. Woods only hires people suggested by IMG but between Mark McGwire,GW Bush and the BCS I dont see Ari has having been really successful at improving any of their images. Ari seems really average at his job and Tiger needs the best of the best PR people working on defusing this timebomb of his. On a completely unrelated note they now say chewing causes wrinkles and loose skin around your mouth. That means I will look like droopy dog in a few years as much as I like to eat.

Nancy Grace is a show that does alot of good but she also has a lot of unintentional comedy.
Caller Caroline: "Nancy I love you and I told my husband that if I ever come up missing I want him to call you first."
Nancy Grace: "You tell your husband to hide under the bed because if you come up missing im coming after him first."

Es Verdad

Free Agency starts at midnight tonight for the NFL. There is no salary cap so Bud Adams can spend like the Yankees if he wants to and buy a title but that wont happen. Jerry Jones spent so much on his stadium that I cant see him going crazy with money either. Dan Snyder will be the dream owner this offseason making it rain money on athletes left and right. The titans dont think they need a wide receiver like brandon marshall or boldin but trust me they do.

John Mayers ex girlfriend Jessica Simpson was on Oprah and said she was disappointed by Mayers comments about sex with her being like a drug. Jessica like most younger pop singers try to portray an innocent look so she told the world she was a virgin when she got married. Mayer who she never married talking about fornicating with her made her mad because it hurts her image that she doesnt have sex unless she is married to the guy. There were rumors she cheated on her husband but Nick could careless about that now, he is just happy to be free with a chance to find his partner.

Mike Wilbon cursed out a fellow writer because the guy said he name drops celebrities. So if you are keeping track at home Hannah Storm doesnt like it when you say she is 50 but dresses 20,Chris Berman doesnt like it when you call him fat and Mike Wilbon doesnt like it when you say he name drops celebrities he knows so basically no one at ESPN likes when you tell them the truth about themselves.

I saw Americans Greed on CNBC about the grandmothers who killed homeless men and collected life insurance on them in california. One grandmother had a book about sociopaths on her coffee table and she fit the profile of not having a conscience. They pretend to be sorry just so they can avoid more jailtime but true sociopaths never have regret. Since 1 in 25 ordinary Americans is a sociopath then you have to be careful out there. There are so many people walking about who dont have a conscience that they can cheat on you,rob you or even kill you without ever losing any sleep over it. Not having any guilt for anything you do sounds impossible but it is true and be aware of any signs that you know someone like this. Most doctors have to admit that sociopaths cant be reformed.

On a much more upbeat note, dream on dreamers because the powerball for saturday is 139 million dollars and megamillions for friday is 133 million dollars. Get your tickets post haste folks.

Golden Ticket

Still no working comp at home but I will keep knocking these out as often as I can. Dont be afraid to read my old posts when I havent put up a new one in awhile,rofl. Also dont be shy about letting me know if i spelled something wrong or any other criticisms. A Killer Whale killed a trainer recently. I dont know when they will stop trying to train and domestic so many wild animals and also really big ones. If a bird acts up you will be ok but a whale or tiger gets mad and thats your butt. It is also called a "killer" whale for a reason.

There is a funny clip of Oprah trying to wipe the birthmark off Drew Brees face. Im sure the big O fired someone for allowing her to look silly on camera. The two days a year Oprah pretends to be a sports fan she should look at a picture of the people she is going to interview first. That way she can avoid thinking Drew Brees has lipstick on his face instead of the birthmark any casual fan knows about.

ESPN is up to their shady"we are so big we can do what we want when we want"games again. They suspended Tony Kornheiser for saying Hannah Storm is 50 and needs to stop dressing 20 and Chris Berman is fatter now than he was before he started nutrisystem. Both are true but ESPN decided to bring down the hammer on Tony and punish us with 2 weeks of Lebatard. If Tony retires that shows ratings will go into the toilet because Wilbon doesnt have chemistry with anyone else like TK. So Mike Greenberg can call Dr. MLK a racial slur on his holiday but Tony cant tell a super cougar to stop dressing like a teeny bopper. Greenberg didnt get suspended or a slap on the wrist. I actually see Greeny on ESPN more now.

I stumbled on the Undercover Boss show on CBS. I didnt want to watch it because the ad was for the head of Waste Management to go undercover and who wants to see garbage mens lives. I watched the on demand episodes starting with the Hooters Ceo. It was actually a good show and i was just expecting to see the waitresses but that one and the 7-11 one were nice. All 3 episodes I watched had good stories.

Speaking of nice stories the powerball is 95 million for saturday and the megamillions is 99 million for friday so go get your ticket if you are into that sort of thing.

Snow Shovel

Tennessees version of a blizzard has finally passed over. The few inches we got put the city to sleep and even my computer at home went down. I have to post from work until I buy a new one so here we go,rofl.

Tiger Woods had his press conference and the velvet curtains looked like he was announcing he is the new host of the tonight show. The media keeps trying to justify why we "need" answers from Tiger on his sex life. They dont complain when Brett Favre holds the press hostage every offseason.

I saw a commercial with Kim and Khloe Kardashian selling a diet pill I think. There is no woman on earth who wakes up saying they want to look like Khloe. Ron Mexico said she looks like Frankenberry(funny line that I wish I thought of first) and I agree with Ron. That pill needs to advertise talking rich suckers into marriage. Even Kim K hasnt talked reggie bush into marriage like Khloe talked Lamar Odom. Right now Kim isnt even a baby mama to reggie she is just trying to steal some of his superbowl limelight(he didnt play well) to help promote her show.

I saw a show about NBA wives and the preview showed Dwayne Wades ex,Jason Kidds ex and Richard Jefferson ex so I just knew it would be man bashing from the womans point of view but I was wrong. The mixed it up and Dwayne Wades ex didnt throw Gabby Union under the bus because both of them cheated. So all you women calling Gabby a homewrecker need to stop because that home already had structural damage. Next up on the possible homewrecker list is alicia keyes until further notice,rofl. Jason Maxiell shaved his head to support his wife who went through chemo for cancer and Charles Bell had a good story of not giving up on his NBA dream even after going to europe with his wife. So its worth checking out if you get a chance.

Many Thanks

Thanks to everyone who visits the site. I try to keep it light and I would rather make you laugh or think about a new perspective on a topic than to get someone upset. Staying positive is important and your life has enough drama without logging on and having to debate strangers.

Ron Mexico left xxlmag but he still has his site so make sure you visit the links to Ron and also Amp over on the right. The saints had their victory parade yesterday but you didnt miss anything the police kept the fans very tame since it was a live stream around the world.

Congratulations to the happy couple in North Carolina,Retired Asheville Fire Department employee Frank Griffin and his wife Loretta, who won the powerball jackpot. After taxes they take home 47 million dollars. They made good decisions by not giving out all of their kids names at the press conference and not telling all of their family members about winning. The not so great decision was doing a press conference and not seeking any financial advice before they claimed the jackpot.

Geauxco Lizard

I thought I would jack up the spelling of my nickname in honor of the saints winning. Congrats to the saints on the big win. If you have been picking against me in the playoffs you should be a rich person by now. I didnt think the colts injuries would be a big deal but the Greg Williams coached defense was great. Fun Fact folks, the Titans had a chance to bring Greg Williams in to be the defensive coordinator but power hungry jeff fisher didnt want to hire gregs son as package deal. So instead we got Chuck"I have brain damage from playing"Cecil calling the shots and that 13-3 best record in the NFL turned into an 0-6 start, the next season. Cograts to Greg Williams for rubbing it in the faces of all the teams who passed on him and also to Drew Brees who was ran out of San Diego in favor of trash talker and playoff choker Phillip Rivers. The Dolphins even chose Dante Culpepper over Brees in free agency so this is a good weekend for serving up that vengeance on a cold platter. I still call it "frontin" but that is probably just showing my age. This may be a good week to buy a lottery ticket and then I can front on my ex and other people. If the "Aints" can win the super bowl then that is another reason for all of us to hang in there just in case things get better for you.

Rachel Nichols was reporting for ESPN in new orleans and people threw beads at her but she didnt flash them,ha ha. Her throaty voice she uses to sound sexy was hard to hear over the chants, so she should try speaking up when she is outside. Normally her phone sex operator voice is popular but when you cant hear her you focus in on her crooked teeth and thats not good.

Peyton Manning was called God in Cleats,The greatest ever and alot of other undeserved things before the game. After the game Rich Eisen was defensive and ready to cry just like he was when Brett Favre choked away the game with an interception. Peyton is alot like he was in college he is great during the year but cant win that big one. He has one super bowl thanks to Joe Addai and Bob Sanders who both deserved the MVP more than peyton in that years super bowl win. Peyton is 9-9 in the playoffs so he needs to start getting it done or people will start saying the playoffs are a mental block for him like the Gators were in college. Ill say Peyton has a shot at being the best regular season QB but he isnt with Montana,Brady,Aikman,Roethlisberger or Bradshaw until he delivers more in the playoffs.

Drew Brees mom died last year but I havent heard him or anyone else mention her. Normally reporters eat up the chance to ask a living person what a dead person would say or if they are looking down on you right now. I think Drew and his mom werent close because of her criminal history and many of us can understand that because we have criminals in our family who dont want to change. It must really be hard to distance yourself from your own biological mother because she always wants money or to hustle you and other people.

Abraham Shakespeare is a lottery winner who was murdered in Florida and he complained about so many people asking for money and bothering him. He kept helping people out but they kept coming back for more. Abe didnt stay away from the right ones because someone murdered him and Dee Dee Moore is the first one they have put in jail for it. Dee Dee pretended to be a reporter writing a story on him and soon she had talked the barely literate man into giving her all of his money. She said it was to protect the money so he could hide from beggars but they found him buried under a driveway in a house she bought with his money. Even the lawyer who helped Abe is connected with her and a police officer was arrested for selling information about Abe to Moore. When even the cops are shady who can you trust after you have alot of money? The unfortunate answer keeps coming up as trust no one.

Not so swift

Taylor Swifts fans are defending her off key performance at the grammys. Her reps are trying to figure out a way to blame all of this on Kanye West. They can say she is still traumatized from Kanye at the VMA's. They should change the name of her song from "15" to "Cant Sing", ba-zing.
Foxy Brown dissed Jay-z sort of. The real Foxy Brown,Pam Grier,was on Smallville friday night. It was hard to recognize her because she isnt aging well. She looks more like Jackee Harry now. Pams body finally caught up with that big chest the same way Tisha Campbells body caught up with her big head after 2 kids.
My friends think its funny I watch Smallville but I just see it as Superman(thats what I keep telling myself). They said I might as well watch Dawsons Creek but the jokes on them because that show hasnt been on in years...uh nevermind.

The story below is about a strip club in ohio that is raising money for Haiti. Cant make this stuff up folks. Dig deep and give until it hurts people.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/02/06/lap-dances-for-haiti-ohio_n_452273.html
Marilyn's On Monroe, a nude dance club in downtown Toledo, Ohio, is raising money to send to the Haiti relief efforts, CNN reports, though they're not yet sure which organization will receive their donations.
"You know, just like everyone our hearts went out to Haiti and we were thinking 'What can we do?" said manager Kenny Soprano.
When asked if he thought organizations would refuse the aid based on its source, Soprano shrugged it off. "Charity's charity. Who's to judge who and where it comes from?"

Fair Trade

The sports world is winding down because the Super Bowl is over a week away. The Pro Bowl matters to me this weekend because I want to see Vince Young throw the ball to receivers who can actually catch it. Terrence Cody and Greg Oden had pictures they didnt want the world to see for very different reasons leaked this week. At the end of the day if you feel sorry for them or not they will both be famous millionaires while you and I are working our 9 to 5.

The Who are performing at the Super Bowl for halftime and that means Pete Townshends past is back in the news. Most people felt like Pete was getting a pass by the media because he is a rock legend and they like his music. Well that pass is getting revoked because the people who live near the Super Bowl received sex offender updates that ole Petey would be playing there. I dont know if Pete would get the R Kelly treatment by the media if he was younger and american but I dont think there will be many protestors outside the Super Bowl. I also dont think many people will boycott watching the game but it is a good excuse to not watch halftime which most people dont watch anyway because it usually stinks. Prince did a really good job, with a bad hip and electric guitars in the rain he just killed that performance. The backlash from Janets nipple has made what was already a boring part of the Super Bowl even worse.

Speech Therapy

(I mentioned Conan's speech on his final Tonight Show and here it is courtesy of Huffington Post)

"Before we end this rodeo, a few things need to be said. There has been a lot of speculation in the press about what I legally can and can't say about NBC. To set the record straight, tonight I am allowed to say anything I want. And what I want to say is this: between my time at Saturday Night Live, The Late Night Show, and my brief run here on The Tonight Show, I have worked with NBC for over twenty years. Yes, we have our differences right now and yes, we're going to go our separate ways. But this company has been my home for most of my adult life. I am enormously proud of the work we have done together, and I want to thank NBC for making it all possible.
Walking away from The Tonight Show is the hardest thing I have ever had to do. Making this choice has been enormously difficult. This is the best job in the world, I absolutely love doing it, and I have the best staff and crew in the history of the medium. But despite this sense of loss, I really feel this should be a happy moment. Every comedian dreams of hosting The Tonight Show and, for seven months, I got to. I did it my way, with people I love, and I do not regret a second. I've had more good fortune than anyone I know and if our next gig is doing a show in a 7-11 parking lot, we'll find a way to make it fun.

And finally, I have to say something to our fans. The massive outpouring of support and passion from so many people has been overwhelming. The rallies, the signs, all the goofy, outrageous creativity on the internet, and the fact that people have traveled long distances and camped out all night in the pouring rain to be in our audience, made a sad situation joyous and inspirational.

To all the people watching, I can never thank you enough for your kindness to me and I'll think about it for the rest of my life. All I ask of you is one thing: please don't be cynical. I hate cynicism -- it's my least favorite quality and it doesn't lead anywhere.

Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen."
-Conan O'brien

Home is where the heart is

I saw a video on MTO of some teens(I think they were teens or people in their 20's who need to start dressing their ages) grinding on a dance floor. "Hit it to the beat" was the name of the dance which is the same old grinding with clothes on you always see just with less clothes on. I thought about a Chris Rock joke when he talked about women dancing and singing along with rap songs about sex. Rock said,"I feel sorry for you guys out here who have to pick a wife out of this bunch." That joke is funny but I couldnt laugh too hard because it hit too close to home. Growing up the girls I knew looked up to Claire Huxtable types of women on tv. Claire was a hardworking attorney who was also a great mother and wife who was still every independent. Now the women are loving Sex and the City and Desperate Housewives with women basically having sex with anything with a pulse. I dont know how they can go from that wild lifestyle to a monogamous married life where everynight wont be clubs and excitement. My friend said they should play that Outkast line before every wedding gets to the vows,"Forever forever ever?" It may be something that sounds nice short term or is what he or she has wanted since they were kids but the reality of just one sexual partner for life (when they maybe feel like it) is hard for some people to deal with.

That reality of no adventure everyday may doom some marriages and relationships. TV and movies have raised the expectations of some people to impossible levels for their spouses to achieve. You are so focused on your long list of what they need to bring to the table you dont care that your list is short. You could spend time working on improving yourself and making sure you are the same type of catch for that person as they are for you. Lowering your expectations and having realistic expectations dont always have to be a bad thing or a failure in your life. Some people arent happy because they are denying themselves happiness by putting up to many high jumps for a person to reach them.

The home teams won yesterdays games so the Super Bowl decided on a neutral field should be interesting. The colts are 3.5 point favorite right now but that could change. The saints defense gave up 31 first downs,475 total yards and 4.6 yards per rush. Peyton Manning really wants this second ring and if the Saints give him any openings he will thread the needle. Kyle Vanden Bosch made the pro bowl so congrats to him. All these dropouts of the pro bowl made the way for the Titans to get added.

Sunday, January 24, 2010

Sunday

(update:Jets lost to the Colts. Artie Lange said your wife wont always screw you but the NY Jets will always screw you. They couldnt even cover the 7.5 point spread. The Saints just beat the Vikings so that makes me 0-2. The vikings had 6 fumbles and 2 interceptions but the Saints still only won by a field goal in overtime. The Saints had 3 fumbles so they need to clean things up before they play Manning and the colts. Congratulations to the Colts and the Saints. I am picking the Colts to win the super bowl.)

I promised free picks on here to go along with my youcapper picks and im picking the Jets/Vikings to be this years super bowl teams. If im wrong you only have to wait a few hours to make fun of me. The Jets remind me of the Titans and thats why you just have to get into the playoffs and anything can happen. Fisher has to stop being so conservative with the plays and stop being loyal to bad players or old players who dont have it anymore.

The Haiti Telethon made 57 million which is really impressive. I dont know how much of that will go to Wyclefs charity but he changed some of his top money people and apologized for mistakes.

Jason Whitlock talked about Mike Greenberg saying Martin Luther Coon in the quote and link below. Im surprised alot of the black gossip sites havent leaped allover this but they are too busy trying to accuse everybody of being gay. Jersey Shore had 4.8million people tune into the season finale so the cast wants a raise for season 2. The Hills and that other crap they show on MTV has a cast that makes more money with lower ratings so the Jersey Shore cast has a good point and they deserve the money. Ronnie didnt fall for the okie doke by sammie again on the reunion show. Sammie played that mind game on his when he busted her with the cop and he ended up apologizing,wth? I think we have all dated at least one person who turns everything around on you even when they do something wrong. This time sammie and Julissa the host were trying to make Ronnie think he was being insecure but he stuck to his guns because if it wasnt a big deal why did they save the secret footage? Ronnie should have stuck to his original rule of not falling in love on the jersey shore.

Intervention and Steven Segal Lawman have been good shows so far. Human Target on Fox has been a surprise hit with me. The main guy on Human Target cosigned the cheating wife and saying it wasnt her fault and she shouldnt feel bad, which I dont approve of but the rest of the show has been good. Archer on FX has been a big disappointment so maybe it will get better.

Conan Obrien did his last Tonight Show and he talked about working hard and not being cynical and dont give up on your dreams. Its a good idea on paper and im all about being positive but when life kicks you in the nuts enough times it hard to keep getting back up. I can understand both sides of the coin because Conan made it to the mountaintop so he knows what its like to reach your goals in life. I dont know what else to do but to keep fighting forward trying to get to my own version of the mountaintop. Of course the fasttrack to the top would be winning the lotto. I thought about giving up on the lottery this week but instead I decided to just cut back on the amount I spend.

http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/whitlock-you-may-hate-favre-now-but-you%2527ll-miss-him

"8. It's mind blowing that ESPN's Mike Greenberg could accidently say "Martin Luther Coon" on national radio and TV on Martin Luther King's national holiday and ESPN take no punitive action.

I don't have any doubt that Greenberg regrets his mistake. I don't think his error necessarily paints Greenberg as a bigot. I don't think Greenberg should lose his job. But he should be required to do more than offer up a weak written apology. A short, paid suspension was warranted.

My tongue slips all the time. It's hard for me to fathom the King to Coon slip. King to Queen, King to Ding, King to Bling and King to Ring I totally get. King to Coon is off the table.

Greenberg has no discernible talent as a radio talk show host. ESPN pays him to say nothing and keep the "Mike and Mike" brand as non-controversial as humanly possible. He screwed up."

Dream Deferred

(update:Ron Mexico wrote a great piece about Wyclef and Haiti and he made a good point about how Red Cross doesnt give every penny to help Haiti but they are first on the ground in these situations. So I am falling back some on my Red Cross criticism and you should consider donating what you can money,time or whatever. Research and find the charity or people you trust most in this time of need.)

I hope everyone enjoyed their Dr. King holiday weekend. Mike Greenberg of Mike and Mike fame may or may not have said "coon" while trying to so say Dr. Kings name monday on his show. The clip is on Deadspin and you can judge for yourself. I am still banned but the Deadspin site is giving the sports news ESPN doesnt cover or doesnt want to cover. Greenberg did the Dog the Bounty Hunter,Don Imus "if anyone was offended" fake type apology. If he didnt say it why is he apologizing? Golic didnt react when Greenberg said it but Golic is also the same man who said he didnt care if Notre Dame fans yelled racist remarks as long as the football team wins.

Dreams were dashed for Martha Coakley when Scott Brown beat her last night for Ted Kennedys senate seat. Coakley was an interesting character not because she is actually an interesting person but because she is the worst part of every democrats stereotype. Coakley was boring, she didnt know Curt Schilling was a famous Red Sox pitcher,and she didnt like to campaign and shake hands. Someone must have cloned John Kerry and Hillary Clinton and this elitist,entitled woman was invented and she thought the voters owed her this senate seat by destiny. Hillary Clinton went around New York and worked hard to get elected there but when it came time to run for president she kicked up her heels(literally) like the country would lay down and give her the presidency. Hillary thought her only competition was the republicans she never saw Obama coming in her rearview. This beatdown should wake up the Dems but I doubt it will. The Dems sat around complaining for 8 years of Bush about how they need a majority and the White House to make changes, they get it and dont do enough with the power.

The combination of powerball and megamillions in the same state would have been unheard of years ago but with the economy in the toilet anything is possible. Just like the same girl who shot you down years ago might go out with you now even if its just for the movie and dinner out at a nice restaurant. You can try to parlay that into a marriage with a few kids who knows,rofl. Below is a press release from the Tennessee Lottery about megamillions and powerball both being sold here in my state.:
"NASHVILLE - The Tennessee Lottery is celebrating its sixth anniversary today with the announcement of a new grand total of $1.6 billion raised for education programs in the state, as well as finalizing the launch date of “Mega Millions,” which will begin on January 31.

“We’re proud of how far we’ve come and the positive impact we have created for education programs in Tennessee,” said Rebecca Hargrove, President and CEO of the Tennessee Lottery. “After six years, it’s likely that most Tennesseans have either benefitted from the Lottery directly or indirectly through a Lottery-funded education program, a cash or merchandise prize, commission earned from selling our products or a benefit gained by doing business with the Corporation.”

The new total of $1.6 billion for education comes after the Lottery closed its books for the second quarter of this fiscal year. Other details about the Lottery’s first six years (Jan. 20, 2004 through Dec. 31, 2009) include:
• More than $6 billion in gross ticket sales
• Nearly $3.6 billion in prizes won by players
• Nearly $393 million paid in retailer commissions
• 52 tickets sold worth $1 million or more

“What better way to continue this momentum than by offering Mega Millions and Powerball, two mega-jackpot games that players are sure to enjoy,” said Hargrove, who is Chair of the Powerball Group and has been a longtime and leading proponent of cross-selling both games.

“With more people having the chance to play both games, Powerball and Mega Millions jackpots are expected to grow bigger and faster than when they were sold individually. This means more winners and larger jackpots on a more frequent basis.”
The Lottery expects Mega Millions to bring an additional $10 to $15 million annually to education programs in Tennessee.

The decision to allow states the option of offering both Powerball and Mega Millions has been prohibited until a recent agreement was reached in a joint meeting of all U.S. lottery jurisdictions. Beginning Jan. 31, 33 jurisdictions representing a combined population of 200 million people with 148,000 retail outlets will begin offering both games. Others will begin cross-selling the two games at later dates."
