F.I.L.A. But This Ain’t Right…

Yes, I love Atlanta but these two items featuring Atliens left me shaking my head. Point 1: Big Boi in CNN’s “Sneakerhead” article Platinum plaques, stacks on deck & more butts than ashtrays. Sure, all of that. But never, never ever ever ever

It’s finally officially official. Above is a video of the press conference from TI’s sentencing. Since he has 30 to 60 days to begin his sentence, the video below is (presumably) one of his final TV interviews before his enrollment in our nation’s fine federal penal system.

With the holiday weekend, yesterday felt like Monday. The good news is, since we got that feeling out the way, Monday isn’t shaping up to be that bad of a day. But that Law & Order SVU marathon had me cemented to the couch for real & feeling undoubtedly lazy as a result. Anyways, today’s...
