Hip-Hop Rumors: Inside The Grammys, Fantasia's New 'Do, The New Fergie ...
I can't say, but Tyrese is very excited about the project. I don't know if that says anything, but it sure shows a stark difference in opinion. But all hope isn't lost! Tank said that hopefully through prayer they will be able to get past the ego thing. Three Six Mafia is on hand at the Grammys because they are nominated for that "UGK" song "International Players Anthem" (they have production credits on that song) and DJ Paul said he was actually with Pimp C two days before he passed. Pimp C was in L.A. that week because he was recording a song with DJ Paul. Also backstage at the Grammys was Ludacris manager Chaka Zulu who told Kendra G. that he was going to watch what he had to say because he didn't want to end up on ALLHIPHOP.COM! Well Chake Zulu...what's up! More to come with Kendra G.
Giants Are All Talk, No Action
As a transplanted Canadian, I speak from experience when telling you that you should be thrilled at the chance to get Rios. He is about to explode. He's got the speed to swipe 25-35 bags (the jays put the stop sign on everyone). He is without a doubt, one of the five best defensive RF in baseball, and has been terrific in CF (his natural position) whenever he has played there. He is an instinctive baserunnner, he has improving plate discipline, and legit power. You guys are such unqualified homers, talking about Cain and Lincecum as if they are already carving their busts in Cooperstown. They are both very intriguing young pitchers with upside, no doubt, but ease up on the rhetoric. I have watched a ton of games of both teams, and this looks like a trade that could help both teams. I have very baseball-knowledgeable friends in Toronto that can't believe the Jays are contemplating giving up Rios (a 2-time allstar) in this trade for a unproven pitcher with a troubling delivery.
Sports Columnists
Supporters say it gives players and potential ones for these teams a sense of stability. Well, such only is the case if those players actually like that successor-in-waiting. And what if you're Florida State, and you're locked into Jimbo Fisher to follow Bobby Bowden, which is the case, and then Mark Richt decides a few years from now that he really would bolt Georgia for Florida State? Fisher or Richt. That's a tough one. "It really does seem odd when hierarchies in sports are set up so transitions are already in place before they actually occur," McGuirk said. "Then again, that does seem to be a new phenomena, and it's one that we're not familiar with." Instead, the Braves are among the shrinking majority when it comes to that trend.
