Damn the fridge is closed, the eggs are cooling and the jell-o jiggling’……….

First I want to shout the boi Bernie Mac RIP. He was truly a King of Comedy. My fave role with him will always be Dollar Bill from Players Club. Take a look: RIP

Also in sadder news, the legend Issac Hayes passed away. He was a music legend, in fact I d-l some Ike Hayes instrumental a few months ago. U wouldn’t believe how many rap beats were jacked from Ike. I can vividly remember messing with my parent’s old record stash and seeing this crazy cover of a black man in a robe. I opened the record up and it folds out to a cross, the title of the album was Black Moses…….now u know about Ike power. The album is so cold its still going for $20 on Amazon.com. They will be missed.

Damn had to get those out the way, now onto to happier ish’, Pineapple Express is an instant classix. Seth Rogen is pure genius….and I don’t throw that title out likely. He simply delivers every time out. Seth is the #1 movie star in Hollywood right mow, plus he loves the WU: . WOW, I know it not cool to say you love a celebrity but I‘ve had a list of 2 people I would love to talk/ hangout with, Shaq and Rza and now u can add Seth Rogen to that list.

I was talking to a good friend about why “Black Comedies aren’t a where near as good as “White Comedies” Now Ii classify white comedies as Wedding Crashers, Meet the Parents, Seth and all his movies( 40 Virgins, Super Bad etc and black comedies as Tyler Perry’s garbage and movies like First Sunday and any of Martins horrible movies. The bottom line we came up with was black comedies depend on physical comedy and whites rely more on incredible dialogue. It’s so true!!! Let me break it breakdown for ya’:

. This is a funny scene but as you see it all physical, the dialogue is very weak in short. Now take a look at this clip (these damn youtube nuts added there lil' flavor to it, but u all know the scene, in fact the true greatness to this scene is the dialogue and u don’t even need to see there faces.): . One of the funniest scenes ever on film, the back and forth routine, the rawness of the jokes and the flat-out humor is legendary. An interesting fact is they ad-libed the whole scene…..Seth you’re a Genius. I’m not knocking anybody that is doing there thing like Tyler, I truly understand how hard it is to get a Black movie made but come on let no keep perpetuating these dumb-ass stereotypes.

Well football season is right around the corner and I’m waking up with a stiffy everyday as it gets closer. HBO is doing there Hardknocks series this year with the Dallas Cowboys. First episode was frickin’ awesome. There so many stars on that team, it the perfect back drop for the show. In the opening scene, the brutality of football is clear and evident. Jerry Jones cuts Terry Glenn before practice starts, the equipment guys say’s it best, 12 years in the league and cut in 30 seconds….brutal. Stay tuned …..24 days till the Peachy Wings and Things Get-Down!!!!

Were in the mist of the greatest athletic event in the modern era…….the 2008 Olympics. Now I’m not going to admit of following the previous ones outside of the basketball but im very intrigued to follow this year. On Saturday, after the skins game I was stuck on the volleyball event, the frickin’ Cuba ladies team is incredible
. Anyways I couldn’t sleep so I caught the Spain-Greece game and the Argentina-Lithuania games at 3am. Incredible games, the intl game is so fluid and loose, not like the rigid isolation dominated NBA. Speaking of rigid NBA, have you kept up with all the ex-nba players going overseas for boku cake. I talked about this on my previous blog but this is even faster then I thought. It such a beautiful thing for so many reason!! First the money is tax free, secondly, the weather and the woman are incredible. Think about Josh Childress situation, he a 6th man for the Atlanta Hawks get about 5mill a year or go to frickin’ Greece, yeah that Greece off the Mediterranean Sea, get 7mill(tax free) , the owners pay for your housing……..Tell me why would I stay. Rumor has it Kobe and Lebron will be offered 50millper year when there deals are up, Mr Stern you got a big problem on your hands.

News dropped that John Edwards had an affair…………WOW, it must be slow in the he news world. Listen every man of power cheats….yes Ghandi included……lol. This should never be news or shocking,. But why??? Is it in our blood to cheat , is it just a primal right. Look for my Art of Seduction Blog this week to further breakdown the real reason we cheat.

Notes and Ish’
 Love the new Diddy Show on vh1
 Hate Jo-Jo from Run’s house, what a major disappointment
 How in the Hell does Chad Pennington be out of work for about 6hrs , reups a deal 2 years for 11 mill and cant throw a 10yard out but D’aunte Culpepper just got into camp after being cut for over a year.
 More NFL racist tactics: Notes: Matt Jones Returns to the Field

August 10, 2008
”The Florida Times-Union, newspaper to the Jacksonville Jaguars made no mention of the odd happening on the field during the Jaguars-Atlanta Falcons game. ESPN made no mention of the happening, Additionally, in a feature “Camp Confidential article on ESPN.com, Paul Kuharsky, former Tennessee Titans beat writer for the Tennessean and now ESPN.com writer, never mentioned the name of the man involved in the happening. The NFL Network showed a highlight of the happening.

“The happening” was a 22-yard pass from David Garrard to Matt Jones that led to the Jaguars’ first touchdown of their preseason game against the Falcons. Normally the discussion around a play like that would concern a veteran quarterback in his second season as full-time starter and banal banter using the overused term, “sophomore slump.” Secondarily, there would be talk of the new receivers in the Jags camp and how all the receivers from 2007-08 must watch their backs.

But this play should have spotlighted something entirely different - and would have if the receiver was black.

Matty J. was back. He started the game. Jones played his prescribed starter number of plays and sat down for the remainder of the game.

No biggy, huh?

But this is an NFL player who was busted in an SUV with six grams of coke. This is a first round pick who was busted chopping lines with a credit card while his boys eagerly awaited the result of his “largesse.” This is the guy who was given a HUGE break by a prosecutor by reducing his charge from distribution to possession despite the fact that possessing more than one gram of cocaine carries with it an automatic charge of distribution. This is a player who let his team down mightily late last season and into the playoffs; basically disappeared - and then during the off-season had the nerve to complain that he wanted the ball more.

There was no uproar. No boos when he came onto the field. No sardonic remarks from the local press. No ESPN coverage detailing Jones’ first action since the arrest. No wondering if Jones needed to be released. No nothing from the commissioner’s office about the scourge that is drugs.

It sure must be nice to be Matt Jones.” Wow you think if this was a Black player that ESPN would have made a mention of it. Kanye was right “Racism still alive they just be concealing it”
 Wow this shyt is amazing, 5’8
 Wow I forgot about this game, I would say Bean has 3 0f the top 5 offensive performances in NBA history. I wonder what Jordan was thinking out there.

Peace to All and remember either u Get It or u Doesn’t……And now u Got It!!!!
