I'm Back!!

Before I get an email smack down, can I give you all an update on what's been going on in my life please:

My Life In Tidbits:

-Went for another job in another department. This is my second try of going outside my department for more duckets. Don't get me wrong, I love my current job/description, but with a growing boy, and some financial goals I would like to attain, the extra duckets would come in handy.

The interview was last week, and when I went in there, the game was changed up a little. Unbeknownst to me, I could be possibly be considered for two separate positions. So, just pray for a brotha, I will keep you updated on that.

-I had to get a tooth pulled...not fun at all!! I should of just went ahead and got knocked out(sedated) for the procedure, but nooo, I tried to man up and take the local numbing medicine. No....for those of you reading this..get knocked out lol!! But, I must say that the hydrocodone (sp?) pills has really been my friend.

-My wallet has gotten to chance to breathe, how about yours? Have you noticed a drop in the gas prices? Do you think it will fall below the $2 mark? Many economic analysts are saying that the decrease in gas prices, can represent our 2ND economic stimulus package, what do you think?

-Fantasy Football update--I was tied for first in my division, but this week did not fare well for me. I am currently up by 10 points, however my opponent still has Chris Johnson, and Dallas Clark yet to play, so my 3 game winning streak may come to an end on Monday night! Big Ben really let me down this week giving me just 1 point. But he is a stud,and they are playing the Redskins, so hopefully he can bounce back. On the other hand, I had Kyle Orton on the bench, chilling next week as they take on the Detroit Lions. Decisions, decisions!! LOL.

-Lastly, whomever you like in this election, please get out there and vote please! I recently got my updated voter registration card, so I will be partaking in the early voting proceedings. I can't believe that election time is almost here, I guess it's time to turn to every channel and see that big map, with blue and red indicators on every state, and their predictions. But me, let me go ahead and Barack the vote!!

Well, that's enough for me, I hope you all have a good week and I will talk with you all soon!!

Take It Easy!!

Fantasy Football Update

I got creamed last week due to the lackluster play of Big Ben!! That man got me -9 points, do you hear me? I was so pissed off about that. Saying that, Ben is staying on the bench and I am going to step out there and use JT O'Sullivan from the 49'ers, as they are playing the Saints. I have Reggie Bush as well, but I think this may be turn out to be a scoring affair because both defenses aren't the stronger, so please wish me luck. I am playing the undefeated team and I want to knock him out. And for my Viking fan :), they got me 20 points last week, so you know that I am going to use them this week.

Well, take it easy!!

Tyler Perry/Bootlegg Movies/Fantasy Football Update

What's up Family?

I got the chance to see the Tyler Pery Movie, and I would like to read your viewpoints on the movie. I really enjoyed the movie immensely, even though I am not really used to seeing Sanaa Lathan act that right. She really garnered a negative reaction from the audience throughout the whole movie!! But I really enjoyed, Rockmond Dunbar and Kathy Bates' performance. I was pleasantly surprised with the movie, being that this was something off the cuff for Tyler Perry. Now, it's time to see "Madea Goes To Jail", and of course that new movie with Pacino/DeNiro. Has anyone seen that movie yet? I believe it's called "Righteous Kill".

I know I don't go to movies that often but I have an observation. In between the scenes of the movie, you would see a bright, bright, blue flash illuminate the whole theatre. At first, I was slow to recognize what was going on, but then it clicked lol. But seriously, could you be any more blantant than with a big blue light every 10 minutes. It was very annoying, but I can't knock anyone's hustle but I know Tyler Perry can't stand the bootleggers.

Fantasy update: I won again with 108 points. My top scorer this week was Calvin Johnson with 26 points. I am still a little bit concerned with Big Ben's sore shoulder, but he is a trooper so I think he should be fine. Furthermore, since Redskin's tight end Chris Cooley caught headlines with his blog, and his "free in the wind" picture, I did find his blog as well. I will drop him a comment and see if he gets back to me. His blog is on my list.

Well, have a good hump day and take it easy!!

How Much Was Your Gas?/Fantasy Football Update

As Hurricane Ike approaches Texas, and the folk in Charlotte started to worry like crazy, I saw the price of gas change within hours. I paid $4.09/gal!! Isn't that crazy? I just wanted to know how the hurricane is affecting your area?

Fantasy Update: Even though I lost my man Tom Brady, I still managed to pull out the win. When money is on the line, this become serious business lol. My roster has remained intact, however, I did change my defense and I am using the Cardinals' defense since they are playing the Dolphins'. Do you blame for that? I just hope the Redskins has worked on the 1-minute drills. We shall see..

I hope you all have a good weekend, and I hope to have a positive fantasy report.

Take it easy!!

Tom Brady Goes Down!/Washington Redskins.....Blah/What I Looking Forward To/D'Angelo

Hello to all!

How is everyone doing? My Redskins looked...terrible. It's early but the kicker only got me one point on my fantasy team, so you know I was hot about that lol. Then, to make this worse, my number 1 draft pick, Tom Brady is down for the year!!! Can you believe that mess? Everytime I draft a QB they go down; case in point: Chad Pennington and Kurt Warner in 2007 and now Tom Brady in 2008. So, please pray that Big Ben can carry me through the season. Nevertheless, the rest of my team performed wonderfully (ie Reggie Bush, and did you see Brandon Jacobs just make a poster out of the poor Redskins cornerback! As you can see, I am quite addicted to this Fantasy Football thing.

Well I have some things to look forward to. Next week on ABC Family, my show was picked up for a 3rd season, and it starts next week: Lincoln Heights:

Also, don't forget that this Friday, Tyler Perry's new movie is coming out and that looks good as well: "The Family That Preys"



I really enjoyed most of Tyler's productions, but I am really feeling this one due to the very diverse cast. Are you going to check it out?

Well, it looks like D'Angelo is making small strides back to the music scene. On blogs, and even on my some on Itunes podcasts that I like to listen to, there is a buzz with D's "Found My Smile Again". For all the neo-soul lovers, you will know that D already released this track off of the "Space Jam" soundtrack, but it seems like he has tried to update the track, with new harmonies, instrumentation, and just overall vibe. I liked what he did, but this is the gateway to more D music. I will keep my ears open for you so stay tuned!!

Thank you for all the comments, I really appreciate the love! Go Vikings!!

Take It Easy!!

NFL is Back!!

What's up y'all!! I am still trying to hold on...Please pray for me!! On a good note, I am happy to say that football is back and my team the Redskins gets to play tomorrow night. This may warrant a trip to the store for some cold ones and some chip/salsa!!

Can I share with you my fantasy team! Let me know what you think
QB Tom Brady
R/B Reggie Bush/Brandon Jacobs
WR Calvin Johnson/Hines Ward
TE Owen Daniels
Defense Vikings
Kicker Shawn Suisham (Go Skins!!)
Head Coach-Steelers

I feel quite confident on my team, but I am nervous about Brady's foot. But Brady on a bad foot is about 10 times better than most talent in the league. Money is on the line so I will have to keep you updated on my results.

Well, thats all for now. I want to hear Sarah Palin's speech and see what mess she talks out the side of her neck!

Take care and be blessed and don't forget to pray for a brotha!!

Daniel Snyder Has Pulled Out The CheckBook Once Again!!

As I start to get my mind right to gather who I might be on my NFL Fantasy Football team, my team has made a crucial decision for their defense and is looking to acquire former Miami Dolphin star, Jason Taylor. When I saw this in my Yahoo mailbox, this puts the 'Skins defense back at the top my list. For those of you who are fantasy football freaks, you know that the defense you choose is as just as important as the QB. Truthfully, I picked the Skin's defense mid-season and I fared pretty well.

Last year was my first year coming into the fantasy football world. I didn't take it seriously at first; I didn't even participate in the league draft. But after getting spanked my first two games, and not having a reliable QB (can you say Chad Pennington and Joey Harrington?), I really got into it. I picked up Big Ben from Pittsburgh and the NFL network became my friend on Sundays starting at 1PM. So, I am really looking forward to this season and being prepared for the draft! If you are a sports fan, I would highly recommend trying to join a league.

Oh, I can't forget....Hail To The Redskins, and thank you to Daniel and not sparing the checkbook!
