Memphis Keeps Wining

Finally after 23 years of not making the Final Four the Memphis Tigers has made it again. Memphis continues to fight for their respect, everyone keeps writing them off, yet they still keep wining. This is the first time in NCAA history that all four number one seeds made it to the final four. Memphis is the team to beat in this game, thier persistant defense and drives to the rim should give them the edge.
Memphis (37-1) takes on UCLA 35-3.
while Kansas (35-3) takes on North Carolina 36-2. North Carolina is my pick to take Kansas

Now its time to show why they are number one.

Sean Levert dead at 39

The 39 year old R&B singer died at the Lutheran Hospital from natural causes last night. He was transported to the hospital from the Cuyahoga County Jail. He was being held there on charges of non child support payments. The Sean Levert death comes as a big surprise considering his age. The crazy thing is that his brother Gerald Levert died in in 2006 at the age of 40. There is not any evidence of foul play involved considering both of them died at such a young age. Shawn levert and Gerald Levert formed the band “LeVert” back in 1984.
Sean Levert had been sentenced to 22-months in prison for not paying child support. Sean owes $85,427.68 in back support for his three children - ages 11, 15 and 17.
I don't agree with jail time for non-child support payments. With All the crime in the United States how many cells a year do we waste on dead beat dads? I wonder is it really worth locking a man or woman up for for a year or two as a form of puishment? It offers no retributuion to the child and what does the state gain from the incarceration, a check? Community service, house arrest should be consideration first making arrest the final phase.

Grandma?

Wow, unbelievable, every inch of this woman body is covered in tattoos. I am more amazed that she is a grand mother. I wonder if she has the world records! You know for her age her body is not bad

Memphis won again

The Memphis Tigers won again. Who are these guys? They are ranked number #1 in their bracket and their record (36-1) not bad. The sports world continue to predict that one team will beat the tigers. Although the naysayers have not seen it yet, the anticiapation is building with each game. Don't forget this is the third straight year Calipari's team has made it this far The two previous trips ended in the regional finals. Even though they held the longest winning streak 21 straight, means nothing. The rumors that Memphis would be the first number 1 seat to be eliminated has not happened and and if you don't believe me ask UT- Arlington, Mississippi St or Michigan St, each team lost at the hands of the Tigers.
The overwheming fact may have to be acknowledged that Memphis is not only a good team but a force to be recognized. Memphis coach John Calipari said. "That everyone believes that we were going to get outplayed, outcoached, outskilled, outhustled, out-this, out-that, and we can't shoot free throws." Although whenever the buzzer sounds and Memphis wins, a new team is already picked to beat the Tigers.
Now comes Texas, you know if Memphis beats them they are in the Final Four, will they be considered good then?

Richardson Joins Obama

Former presidential candidate and governor of New Mexico has decided to endorse Obama. Governor Richardson had been wooed by the Clinton's but in the end, Mr. Richardson said his“affection and admiration for Hillary & Bill Clinton will never waver,” but there’s something special about this guy,” Mr. Richardson said of Mr. Obama and that's why I am supporting him". Richardson endorsement could add to Obamas credibility among Hispanics, as well as among Democratic super delegates whose choices could prove decisive if neither candidate can claim 2,025 delegates to win. Obama, has stopped Clinton from building momentum by consistently wining, and gaining more super delegates. Richardson choose Obama despite his close ties to the Clintons. He served as energy secretary and U.N. ambassador in Bill Clinton's administration, and the former president joined Richardson to watch last month's Super Bowl. But when it came time to decide, Richardson said Obama "will be a historic and great president, who can bring us the change we so desperately need by bringing us together as a nation here at home and with our allies abroad." The Clinton campaign, was looking forward for revotes in Florida and Michigan to support their claims of big wins in big states. Since the revote issue has been shot down, the point of no return is coming quickly. If it becomes inevitable that neither candidate can win and we pick one, will Clintons supporters support Obama or will Obama supporters support support Clinton? Possibly the only way to resolve this issue, one elects the other to becomes VP.

Obama and Hillary, what are you debating?

Everyday I listen to the candidates debate on how they will make changes to the world and make it a better place to live. The Iraq War is the hot topic right now, everyone has a plan to end it quickly. Although, the war the US is having is not actually with Iraq, its with the rising cost of living and how it is creating havoc on the lives of blue collar workers. In 2003, that was the year Bush pumped up the US to go to war with Iraq. The theory of the war was to control oil prices, dethrone Saddam, avenge 9/11 and catch Bin Laden. What did the war allow us to accomplish? We caught Saddam but we lost 5,000 of our American troops. 5 years later we have not captured Bin Laden and the havoc of record high gas and food prices is crippling the american economy! You see when I pump gas it is $3.29 a gallon. Milk at $4.02 a gallon is higher than gasoline. The cost of living has gradually increased since we started the war with Iraq and continues to reach record highs each day. So after weighing the options of what we attempted to accomplish, by starting the war. Now we need to figure out what we are going to accomplish by ending the war. Just quiting is not enough, we need a plan with actions on lowering the gas and food prices in the United States. The candidates plan should contain information on improving the economy, a time- line of how long it will take and a detailed discription of how taxed will be lowered and incomes/ increased. The trickle down effect of fighting with a country that has all the oil hurt the United States, and we are paying for it each and everyday. So we don't need any more hot air, if you don't have a clue ask somebody! Americans can not take 4 more years of this!
