The Vick Situation

Hello internet, I know the NBA playoffs are going on and my Lakers won last night, (YES!!!)I have to discuss Micheal Vick. I am glad to see him reciving the home release and im happy for him. I wish him well but I really have to address the atmosphere around Vick. To me he seems to be headed on the right track so skeptics should lay off the man untill he proves otherwise. And not to beat a dead horse but I know he did wrong but he paid his debt to society and should get a chacne to get a job back in the NFL. As far as PETA and any other type of protesters: You have a right to an opinion and you can protest if you like. But dont go over board. There is a time to prove a point and be passonatie and a time when its too much and I hope they dont cross that line. And despite what you may hear on tv and radio I think some teams may not care about PETA protesting and just want a good player and a chance to win football games. I know his name is getting ran through the mud as far as him being a QB too but he did find a way to win as a mobile QB with not much pocket throwing ability. To me his life will be much more diffrent now: First it was common knowledge that Vick was not a show up early stay late guy, and now we see why. His focus now is his family and getting out of debt, so his best option is playing good on the field and getting a better contract. Also I know as a competitor he still wants to prove he is a QB like he did before he went to prior to prison. And lastley I know that he did wrong and he deserved to be punished but to people who play madden (Vick was the 04 coverman)and the Vick experience commercial, the jersey sells (I even took seniror pictures in a Vick jersey) and the fact he was the Peyton Manning for the black community its been a loooooooooooong fall from grace. I'm rooting for him and hope he uses his second chance well cause there were so many young black children that looked up to him and he let himself and those followers down. But if he can come back and succed at most importantley life and then football, THAT WILL BE THE GREATEST COMEBACK STORY OF ALL TIME!

The Inevetable Finals matchup and What it means.

Well as a fan of greatness I have to applaud LeBron James on the MVP. Personally im ready to see him have a competitive series in the eastern finals with the Magic because the Celtics just dont have enough without KG. As a Laker fan and being near the Houston area I wished to see them play the Rockets. And just as I thought the Rockets will get LA ready and battle tested, one thing besides the presence of Andrew Bynum they lacked last year. With the King and co. having such an easy trip will they face the same fate as the Lakers or step their game up when the reach the finals? Because news flash to fans of the remaining fans of the Magic, Celteics, Hawks, Mavs, Nuggets, and Rockets: THE LAKERS VS. CAVS MATCHUP IN THE FINALS IS INEAVETABLE!!( See the vitamin water commercial) The league wants it, the fans want it, and it will distinguish the two best players since Micheal Jordan from him. Jordan never faced a player at SG/SF in the finals as the same type of skill level & greatness as him. He never faced such tough teams like the 07 Spurs that beat LeBron or the 08 Celtics that beat Kobe. I say that to say this, mark my word: When the history of whos greater comes up it will be painfully obvious to see the league was void of the type of dominant teams to face Jordan, hince the 72-10 season, and Kobe & LeBron should get passes if they win multiple finals in this climate and be looked at like Magic & Bird for making the finals alot and winning more than they lost. It will aslo be pivitol for the legacies of Kobe and Lebron because they are both in their primes. Kobes toward the end of his and the winner, can always claim he is the greater because of head to head match ups, especially if they meet more than once. The MVP LeBron will likeley win more because Kobe got robbed of two and LeBron is more likeable being in Cleveland and stating out losing than Kobe and he had been with a team synonomous with winning. Only time will tell and I will enjoy the playoffs, but cant wait for the legacy driven Finals matchup the NBA has in store for the viewing public!

When will Rappers Learn???

have to disscuss the recent information leaking out about FORMER Grand Hustle(T.I.'s label) rapper Alfamega was a federal informant in 1995 and he got dropped from the label by T.I. for dishonesty. First of all rappers have to learn that you must have an iron clad past, and if u dont come clean whaterver it is and go from there. While I am a fan of Rick Ross, he really got alot of negative attention due to the co pic but he shoulda of confronted it and let it die out. With the solid album out (Deeper Than Rap) and the beef with 50, honesty from the jump and that issue would be dang near dead in the short attention span of todays music consumers and general public. But the co was one thing but documentation of Alfamega being an informant is almost certainly a hip-hop death penalty. ( In a XXL interviem Alfamega said he dosent give out his government name and I see why now.lol!)With T.I. being called a snitch his self with his light sentence, he had no choice but to drop the man. I see the situation as funny but I hope he leanred his lesson and gets back on his feet. And wouldnt you love to see what Shawty Lo has to say about this if he and TIP were still beefing, but with him being dropped it may be free regin to attack him? Whats even funnier is that he had a 110 month sentence before testifying and only 18 months taken off because of his testomniy. Wonder if that 18 months was worth his rapper career, guess if you cant do tha time dont do tha crime, and dont get caught telling either
