See, this is what makes me angry! My sister, 14, is an AVID BET watcher. The LAST thing I want her to see is a glorified account of going to jail. Because, regardless of how "tragic" they say they are going to make it, they want ratings. And with the piece about "not snitching," kids are really getting the message to keep silent in times of trouble. At my job, one little boy told me he hit another boy because "snitches get stitches." BET really needs to take some responsibility for the programs it runs and the people it does (or does not) support. We can preach parental control, we can preach "you have the choice not to watch it," but when it all comes down to it, be it in our own homes, or the homes of our friends, this is the CRAP that our children have to look to as some of the only images of themselves (ie black people) on television.


Sorry to rant, but the LK thing sent me over the edge. Happy Sunday!

Queen Bee
 

I love Lil Kim. I watched the show last night. She knows she looks different alot. I suppose that's why she says she needs to be shot in a certain light because she is like a chameleon. I can't believe she said she doesn't think she had a good video since the Mobb Deep and Crush on You video. Crush on you was a hot video. Was feeling all the colors(ghetto side of me). I feel that Jump Off was a great video. I guess she knows what she likes. Besides that, Ja Rule was getting on my last nerve. I never really cared for him since his 1st album. He's so commercial now. Oh well. I can't wait to see more. Always been a fan of hers since Junior Mafia.

Re: Queen Bee
 

Ja Rule is such a freakin bama!:rolleyes: I cant believe he said that Lil Kim gets mad street cred because she's going to jail for lying. Is he serious??? Get a life!

On another note, I love Lil Kim and hope she doesnt have to serve the full time. But the first episode was a little lackluster, so I'ma need for them to step it up a notch.

Hmmm the GSU Tigers.........:rolleyes:

Young, Vick fail under pressure

The official scores from the Wonderlic Tests taken at the combine were released. As usual, there were some interesting results. Texas QB Vince Young did indeed took the test twice. The league (NFL)has been tight-lipped regarding his first score, but the higher score of his two attempts was a 15. Young's score was bad, but not the worst of this year's quarterback class. That honor goes to Virginia Tech's Marcus Vick, who scored an 11 on the test.
A perfect score is 50, and the highest score any player posted in this year's class was a 41 (Oklahoma DT Dusty Dvoracek). The lowest score of this year's class was an eight (Syracuse DE Kader Drame, Alabama ILB Freddie Roach, Louisville DT Montavious Stanley, N.C. State TE T.J. Williams and Oklahoma DC Chijioke Onyenegecha), and the average score of all the quarterbacks was a 24.6.
The Wonderlic Personnel Test (WPT) is a short-form intelligence test that measures players' ability to think on their feet, follow directions and make effective decisions under pressure. While Young and Vick exposed their weaknesses in those areas, other quarterbacks shined. Grambling's Bruce Eugene (41), Montana State's Travis Lulay (37), USC's Matt Leinart (35) and Oregon's Kellen Clemens (35) all posted impressive scores.

I understand why this wasn't front page sports news. :o

<--- excited

i'll have to DVR it thursday... oddly enough this tv show premiers the same night as the DCI theater release (band movie).

Girl I already know, will they ever learn? :rolleyes: :p :D

Why am I being cocky by stating FACTS? :rolleyes:

Hypocrites I tell ya. Just go to the Bayou Classic thread. Who was cocky? Who has been cocky every since they acquired Pete Richardson? "The Jaguar Nation" That was the best thing ya'll could have done! I witnessed (in person) SU week after week pre-Pete. One loss after another...

I know. I know. You all have forgotten or you were not around. :rolleyes:

Who sent me graphics in an email when SU beat Gram? You know who you are!

Don't start...

Soror AKA2D I'm actually proud of GSU. I love it when HBCUs are rewared for the good they do. Hats off to Grambling State University.
