Since the talk of reinstating Michael Vick into the NFL begun, an instantaneous battle was formulated. The battle between animal lovers vs. sports fanatics ensued. I am a strong animal and sports lover; therefore, I could not pick a side. However, I wanted to get a great point of view from a man that has played the game as a teammate with Michael Vick. Mr. Jamal “Dirty Bird” Anderson expressed his assessment on the matter. Check it out:
Michael Vick
Just say the name and people immediately have an opinion about the man’s future...or better what his future should not be. The debates and arguments will continue to rage on because we simply have to be honest. There are people out there, and a lot of them, who don’t think Vick should have even served that much jail time for the offenses that he committed. Then of course there are people who feel like his punishment was not harsh enough. I don’t really care you how feel about Vick either way, because you are all entitled to your opinions and beliefs. But one thing I do know, since Vick has plead guilty, and served his time, he has done absolutely EVERYTHING that was asked of him. Including apologizing, taking responsibility for his actions, and go to Jail early. I know the last one does not seem major, but tell me how many HIGH PROFILE people who either plead, or are found guilty actually step up and start their sentence early? And those of you who don’t think he apologized, see : Vick's Apology
He has since released a new statement echoing those sentiments now.
What Michael was apart of was wrong, and illegal, PERIOD. I only got the opportunity to play One season with Mike, but I cant tell you from my personal experience, which is far more extensive than most, the he is NOT the demon some make him out to be. I will also make no excuses for his past transgressions. But people make mistakes, and when you own up to those mistakes, and do whatever is necessary to take responsibility for those mistakes, you should be given and opportunity to resume your life, in hopes of proving to people that you have changed, that you have made amends for the wrong that was committed. I certainly believe Mike has earned that right, and I truly believe that he will turn all of this negative stuff into positives by informing others to stay away from the things he was apart of. Of course, selfishly as a football fan I anxiously await the return of the Most talented person I have ever witnessed in Football equipment. Believe me I do not underestimate when I say that. People can talk all day long about his production, or lack there of, or his consistency, or lack there of, but you cannot deny his talent, and the need to want to watch when he played to see what he was going to do next. I could get into debates about his production all day long, and several circumstances that contributed to that. This however is about Mike Vick being reinstated, and the Fact that I fully believe that he should have be reinstated. I do not think the timeframe for his reinstatement is as critical as the fact he has been reinstated. Playing in the NFL is not a right, but a privilege that must be taken seriously. I think Mike has grown, matured, and realized what he has lost as a result of his past transgressions. I also think it is time to stop the persecution, and allow this man to re-enter society, and regain the privilege of playing in the greatest sports league in America.
Sure some may pick it and protest his arrival back, but others will recognize that it is time to move on, and he has served his punishment for these crimes. I look forward to seeing what the future holds next for Mike... I am hopefully he can regain the ability & confidence that made him one of the most feared to play against, and one of most fun to watch. I guess we’ll have to just tune in, see what’s next for Vick.....
Today is dedicated to "Things That Make You Say Hmmm"…."Where They Do That At??" or better yet …"WTF"?
Hearing Impaired and Mentally Disabled Man Tasered
When did there become limits to how long a person can use the restroom? Antonio Love is hearing impaired and mentally disabled, he has led a very independent life in some respects. He was tasered by Mobile Police Department for staying in a Dollar General bathroom for an hour. Love said that he had gone to the restroom because he was sick to his stomach.Officers sprayed a chemical irritant into the bathroom, broke the door down and used a Taser in the process of taking Love into custody.The case against 37-year-old Antonio Love was thrown out by a city magistrate who refused to sign off on the arrest warrant.If you did not know who he was and what he was doing, what happen to asking questions? Why did this happen?
Here are a few comments from the Mobile Press Register:
Posted by Lilogla: "Most of us empathize with the handicapped. He is so sure that he was in the bathroom for only 30 minutes, not an hour like the Store Manager said. The police officers did their jobs. It didn't turn out good but they did their job in protecting us. Ask this guy about how he can tell he was in the bathroom for only 30 minutes. Do not punish these police officers, please."
Posted by 123Ibelieve: "Hearing aids don't help a totaly deaf person. HE obviously is able to hear something or he would not have a hearing. Yes, I'm deaf in one ear, no hearing aid, 45% hearing in one ear w hearing aid. I have a 10year old that certainly can understand that a police officer wants to talk to you. I have alot of empathy for the handicapped, however, this looks very odd at the least. I hope everything is checked out, not just the police. Even the handicapped should be taught to respect law enforcement."
Awful Dancing Makes Everything Better
WTF is he doing!?!?!?!
Free Advertisement Wanted
Why?!? Why are we advertising for companies for free? These companies pay millions of dollars to advertise their products. However you are paying them to make them money. I'll let you think about that one for a while...
Gucci Mane, you couldn’t have thought of anything more creative to rap about other than being wasted? Then to add to the fuc*ery, you got somebody grandmamma sipping syrup leaning wasted. The beat is hella hot but the lyrics definitely deserve a “WTF”!!!
"Purple codine sprite pink dont waste it; Mix it grandma drink it then taste it;Now grandma sippin syrup leanin wasted"
"Now im lookin 4 a b*tch to succ dis almond joy;Said she gotta stop succin cuz ha jaws sore; Gotta b*tch on da couch,b*tch on da floor"

5-WHILE AT WORK,DO NOT BAD MOUTH YOUR EMPOLYERS AND CO-WORKERS ON TWITTER. DO NOT STATE HOW BAD YOU WANT TO "SLAP THE S*IT OUT OF THE B*TCH IN THE NEXT CUBICLE". THIS IS NOT A GOOD LOOK!

I must say I was very impressed with "Making His Band" that appeared on MTV last night. It was definitely more than what I expected. I admit I was very apprehensive to watch the reality show for fear of a drama relapse from previous seasons of Making the Band. However, Sean "Diddy" Combs has definitely changed the game and the total atmosphere of this show. The show really seems to be about music and artists that love their craft. The show was professional, humorous, and drama free!!! I really enjoyed the show last night! I am without a doubt looking forward to the remainder of the season! I have my favorites already! Here is a clip of Episode 1:
SLEEPING LIKE A BABY, HUH
Trey Songz is currently on a promo tour gettin America "READY" for his album release on September 1! He's been very busy and probably really tired! While on the road, his buddies decide to prank him a little...just a little. This video is hilarious!
Although Trey's album "Ready" will not be officially released until September 1, 2009, you may pre-order the album from his official website.
Murphy Lee, is a member of the hip hop group St. Lunatics. Murph is also the CEO of his own label, U C Me Entertainment. However, Murph is much more than just a member of the St. Lunatics. He is a clever lyrist that can rival the dopest M.C. His well composed lyrics are not only automatic but charismatic. Murph’s debut album, Murphy’s Law, peaked at number 8 on the Billboard 200 charts. Currently he is working on his Murph or Die DVD wit a free album attatched...collectors edition. The album is gift to his fans, which is coming soon. He is definitely one of the best M.C.s in the game right now. Nine years…still a brand new star!
St. Lunatics are a rap crew from St. Louis, Missouri formed by Nelly, Ali, Murphy Lee, Kyjuan and City Spud. The group was formed in 1993 and came out with their hit, "Gimmie What U Got", in 1996. St. Lunatics released their debut album Free City in 2001 with hits such as "Summer in the City" and "Midwest Swing". Remember this:
Currently the St. Lunatics are working on their sophomore album “City Free” “St. Lunatics” is one of my favorite songs from the group. I love that this song displays the individual ingredients that everyone brings to the group. The song is raw, uncut and energetic...you know...one of those songs that get you ready to win before your basketball game!
I haven't been on here in about a week. I am currently contemplating the direction of my blog. I do not like Gossip blogs, I could care less what a celeb is doing...plus they tell all their business on Twitter ANYWAY. I would love to do a political blog, however; I do not want to say something that can cost me my job. I kinda have a big mouth...Any suggestions...
Whats up yall its MUSIC MONDAY! Every Monday, I will post the hottest songs of the week! Make sure you leave comments about the songs! Enjoy!

Trey Songz
With the release of Anticipation, it is official Trey Songz is a mixtape genius. He presents a very dark and sensual side of himself not usually apparent to the public eye. This works for him and makes me eager to listen to his upcoming album "READY" due to be released on September 1, 2009. Throughout the summer, Trey has released over a thirty (30) songs in the last two months. He definitely grinds hard and knows he wants. On his twitter (@songzyuuup) he stated he was, “In the studio tryna paint a musical Picasso” and that is what we will expect on September 1! YUUUP!
