Man, that's nuts about Duffle Bag Boy. I was listening to that when I was typing in this thread this morning, when I was driving to the park earlier, and when I was out drinking last night. That was my song of the night yano. It brought me back to when it first came out. Those first few months it was insanely popular in New Orleans. I've just got good memories from it. I hear ya on the pump up too. You can all hate on Wayne all ya'll want, but he's put out some pretty hot tracks.
M.I.A.'s a pretty good bar/club artist too, like Master Shake was saying. I like bumping her because really, everyone's gonna like it. Chicks LOVE M.I.A. for some reason. I really haven't met a chick who doesn't freak when I put her on, and if they've never heard of her before, they get into it eventually. Her songs also have ridiculous bass lines too, and the lyrics aren't that commercial. I mean, "I fly like paper, get high like planes" isn't a hook you'll have in a typical top 40 song. I also notice when I bump her I get a lot of weird looks from people in older generations. I can tell they're like "what the hell is that?" whereas most people from my generation would dig it. That sounds stupid, but every generation always has their things that the older generations just don't understand yano, and it's sorta uniting.
And I don't hate Mayo, and just because I say the guy's not going to be a superstar doesn't mean I'm "bashing" him.
This is the worst I've said -
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Now, Mayo is a good player. A great player? Maybe. But to think that O.J. Mayo is a superstar in the making as some posters on this board have suggested is an opinion influenced by the media. He's shorter than 6'4", can't run the point, averages more turnovers than assists, and hasn't functioned in an offense that doesn't revolve around him up to this point. He could be a star, maybe even an All-Star, but more than likely, he just becomes a brand-name.</div>
I like Mayo, and I'll enjoy watching him and Gay, but this is like the Battier trade. You get the better player in the deal but still give up too much, and I don't think it'll help us win ball games.
Basically, I like Mayo, but I don't like the trade.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>VC, all is well. We all go through our rollercoaster's in life, and unforunately, my ride took a steep dip for a while and I've been trying to figure it out ever since. I've been patching it together slowly, and the outlook is starting to look promising, but I'm not as far ahead by now as I hope. This all seems a little vague, but basically I f*cked up (in many things), and I'm trying to correct myself.</div>
Bro, be as vague as you want and I still feel ya. Glad things are looking up, and it's good to have you back... it's almost like everyone from JBB is starting to slowly come on back this summer... feels like old times.
