Is it 1999?

Just looking at many different brackets I am starting to see a nice correlation here between 1999 when it comes to this tournament and Uconn. 1999 was the year in which they "shocked the world" in beating the unstoppable Duke team with Elton Brand and company. This year Uconn is a #1 and UNC seems to be the heavy favorite (120K + polled on espn.com 51% to 21% taking the heels). There is no point in arguing it, because hopefully they meet in the championship, but to me UNC is definitely not the clear favorite. It just seems to me that UNC is more riding their name this year and the fact they were supposed to be unstoppable a lot more than their actual talent. Go Huskies.


Tear it up Mr. Kemba

My favorite rapper and your favorite rapper's favorite rapper got sentenced today to 366 days in jail.

The few people that read this are not big fans of hiphop, and I don't blame them because it is rather pathetic these days. T.I. is my favorite rapper and his cds are amazing and he seems like a cool dude. I'm not going to stand here and defend him with buying illegal guns when he was already a convicted felon. It was stupid, very stupid and laughable. I can't laugh at him though because I really like him. He took a situation that was bad and he made something good with it. He did the stand up thing and said he was wrong and then agreed to do community service and different programs for kids. I tip my hat to him for admitting his stupidity and mistake and moving on. He will be in jail for a year, but he will be back. I look forward to his pending release.

I understand that when you have a program that is year in year out one of the best in the country for women's basketball I understand the frustration that might come with losing in the first round for the first time. That being said this is still retarded. I think they were a 5 seed and lost to a 12? I don't know, and don't especially care because its girls and the only team that ever matters is the product that Geno puts on the floor. I believe (from my 4 years playing and my coach pulling this stunt once) that they get to practice up until the day of the championship game. Some lucky broads in that program. I'm sure thats what they signed up for when they signed their letter of intent to go to prestigious Tennessee. Ohh, and ESPN, spare me the story next year around this time about how good a coach Summit is for having done this, and inevitably, leading them further in the tournament. Hustle hard girls! I'm sure you are loving life!

This is something that is straight out of America. Yet somehow it has landed in Japan and appears to be one of the coolest concepts for an animated series ever. The Japanese don't even do anything halfway related to war anymore. I can only pray they dub it in English as well. Feast your eyes on CatShitOne

My new favorite band, and by that I mean I want to go to a show and sucker punch people in the face while in the pit.



It should be mentioned that the concert shown on the video doesn't even correspond to the song. Imagine what this sounds like live? It needs to be amazing.
