All On My Jockstrap: Lebron Wants To Retire Jordan's #23 Across The League

Saturday, November 14th, 2009

Baby Jordan a/k/a Lebron James wants NBA players to stop wearing the # 23 in honor of his "Airness” Michael Jordan and is willing to start a petition as he plans to jerk Michael off even more. King James has even vowed to quit wearing the # 23 and switch to his Olympic jersey No, # 6.

Lebron stated to The Plain Dealer following his Cleveland Cavaliers win over the Miami Heat on Thursday,

"I just think what Michael Jordan has done for the game has to be recognized in some way – soon. There would be no LeBron James, no Kobe Bryant, no Dwyane Wade, you name all the best players in the league right now and the last 10 years, there would be none of us without Michael Jordan."

Further riding Jordan's jock strap, Lebron added,

"It's time. He's the best basketball player we've ever seen. Mike does it on the court and off the court. If you see 23, you think about Michael Jordan. You see guys flying through the air, you think about Michael Jordan. You see game-winning shots, you think about Michael Jordan. You see fly kicks, you think about Michael Jordan. He did so much, it has to be recognized, and not just by putting him in the Hall of Fame."

We've all heard stories of King James being disrespectful to his fans and kids as he seems to follow in his mentor's footsteps in that route as well. And as far as Jordan's accomplishments off the court, I wonder if James will follow in his tracks by continuing to rape the Black community with his over priced footwear and not take a stand against his bosses at Nike even after kids were being killed in high numbers over them throughout the 80s and 90s.

And let's not forget how his “Airness” continues to be a mouse when its time to speak on important issues involving the community. Yeah we know what you're gonna say. They're not role models or politicians but they will stand and dance for anything their “bosses” tell them to do.

James also continued mask in his idol's shadow, adding,

"He can't get the logo, and if he can't, something has to be done."

That remark was made referring to the NBA logo that is a silhouette of Jerry West.

Money does make the line blurry and hard to distinguish between smart businessman and super slave. Lebron, if you want to retire a jersey # across the league, why not look at No. 32 (What up “Magic”). Yeah Jordan's on court achievements can't be argued but let's evaluate the whole man besides his ability to do circus tricks with a ball.

Let's just hope Jordan doesn't make the same mistakes O.J. did. Then you'll know if you're really loved.

Dr. Boyce Watkins Weighs In: Jigga What? Did Jay Z Get Charlamagne Tha God Fired?

Saturday, November 14th, 2009

I have a great deal of respect for Charlamagne Tha God, former morning show host for 100.3 “The Beat” in Philadelphia.  I met Charlamagne during my appearances on The Wendy Williams Experience, and he has respected me as a brother from the first day we met.  That is why I was shocked and saddened to hear that Charlamagne was suddenly fired from the station this week.

It is not a surprise when a host gets fired from a radio show, since media is as fickle as a crack head in a candy store.  You get a big platform one minute and it's ripped out from under you the next.  But what got my attention in the case of Charlamagne's firing was the rumored reason that he might have gotten the axe.

There are many who are reporting that Charlamagne got yanked after (more...)

Ohio Serial Killer To Be Arraigned Today

Friday, November 13th, 2009

Cleveland serial killer, Anthony Sowell, is scheduled to appear in court today to face charges connected to the rape and strangulation of a 32-year-old woman that took place on September 22nd in Cuyahoga County.

The military vet and mass murderer is expected to be arraigned on numerous charges, including multiple counts of kidnapping, rape, and attempted murder.

Authorities say that the victim was raped by Sowell after taking a walk in his Cleveland neighborhood, after which, he lured her back to his home.

“While raping her, he strangled her with a cord until she lost consciousness,” stated a member of Cuyahoga County's persecutors office via a written statement to media. “When she regained consciousness, he led her out of the house.”

While investigating the rape accusations against Sowell, 50, authorities found the bodies of several other victims at his residence. The count is currently set at 11.

The grizzly killer is facing five counts of rape, aggravated murder, kidnapping, and felonious assault, in connection to the recently discovered victims.

Sowell previously served 15 years behind bars for a 1989 attempted rape; he has only been free for four years.
