It’s bad enough that my home state of Massachusetts, a beacon of progressive values, has derailed efforts to provide health care for millions of people for a guy whose main selling point was “I drive a truck.” It’s bad enough that the salt is doubly-rubbed in the wounds of MA Democrats by the fact that this election only happened because State Dems changed the rules on elections several times under the assumption only a Democrat could win.

But, now I find out that we’ve sent a jerkoff and his kin to Washington. Literally. Read the rest of this entry »

With all the ogling I we do for Ms. Keri Baby, the magnitude of her talent can get swept under the rug from time to time. Looking scrumptious as a plate of yams with extra syrup and sounding like a sweet, sweet nightingale, the Grammy-nominated songstress gets naked (well, musically) with an acoustic version of “Knock You Down” right after sitting down with Billboard Mag.

Kobe vs. LeBron may be the NBA feud of the moment, but the rivalry of the future will involve LBJ and Kevin Durant. TSS’ next NBA superstar hopeful stood toe-to-toe with the reigning MVP for almost the entire 48. In the end though, King James kept the crown with this game-saving block.

Before Christmas, a friend hit me with an interesting question. He had met a fine young lady approximately three weeks before Christmas and did want to buy her a gift, but wasn’t sure what to get without spending too little/much and making sure it was still intimate enough to let her know that he cared about her. I said spend no more than $40 total and be sure to buy her some socks. Everyone loves socks.

Not sure how that worked out for him.

However, if you find yourself in a similar situation as we head into Valentine’s Day, I have a better option to suggest. Read the rest of this entry »

I usually try to stay away from being overly negative, which the internet likes to calling “hating.” To a degree, it’s pointless. Opinions are like assholes, they full of shit © Blu. But, given this forum and the chance to speak, I have to say that…remember when I mentioned that older artists in Hip-Hop shouldn’t be afraid to lead the way and experiment with change in order for the art to grow? Jay’s done that time and time again, critics and fans’ opinions be damned.

But this telethon song with Bono and Rihanna is buns. Read the rest of this entry »

Well worth the watch even though I admit it could have stopped @ the one minute mark and I would have been fine. But thank my Lord and Savior that I did stay tuned in until the 2:00 mark to catch Digger break it down. Be careful old fella, you could break a hip! Read the rest of this entry »

As our economy here in Michigan currently resides alongside Splinter and the TMNT gang in the sewer, Governor Granholm and her old fogy cronies have enlisted some of the Dirty Mitten’s most notable faces to clean up our image and bring customers back to the Great Lakes State: Coach Izzo, Mitch Albom, The Captain and a few unrecognizable big-wig business-types who know Bo Diddly about sports. Then, rather surprisingly, at the :22 mark is none other than chronic Tronic delivery man Black Milk, promoting what else but ‘Fresh Milk!’ The b-roll of his voice may last longer than his grill, but the fact that Black simply got the nod amongst local gods shows that Popular Demand couldn’t have been more true.

I wonder why Trick Trick didn’t get the look?

*Imagines Trick posted 100-deep on 7 Mile and Mack standing over bodies of bloody rappers, hoisting those bazookas from “Can’t Fuck Wit My City” and proudly yelling, “Fire Power!”*

Among his other skills, Derrick Rose has a very impressive set of springs (||), which he uses to leap over the Suns’ Goran Dragic and gets near eye level with the rim. The Bulls won Friday night’s contest versus Phoenix and Rose chipped in 32 points. But these were by far his best two points of the evening. Read the rest of this entry »

Each conference’s best teams battle it out for a trip to the Super Bowl this weekend.  Everyone who was expected to be here is present, as the season served as an extended preview of an inevitable match-up in the NFC.  We always knew the Colts would be here, but who’d rise up to challenge them changed each week as pretenders came and week throughout the season.  Since no one else wanted it, the Jets seek to make the Colts pay for letting them in.  Both games should be competitive (finally!) as two teams stamp their tickets to Miami.
