I am really starting to love all the attention the Miami Heat has and will be getting for the next few years. From well wishes to spoofs the world is buzzing over Lebron. Comedian Affion Crockett chimes in with a hilarious spoof of Jay-Z “A Star is Born”.
“Lebron is Gone”
“I’m not really crying, that’s just my sinuses”. -Jay-Z
This is undeniably the best sound clip about Dwyane Wade, Lebron James, and Chris Bosh I have and probably will ever hear. The outrageously obnoxious sound byte from The Dan LeBatard Show with Stugotz begins with all of the nay-sayers spewing all the reasons why none of them will be in Miami. I must admit, I agree with some of them particularly the 30million+ they would leave behind if they signed together. But, I guess a new legacy and a solid chance at the championship is worth “30, 40, 50 million dollars”.
DISCLAIMER: If you are a Lebron Hater, Heat Hater, or Knicks Fan DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS CLIP. If you are any or all of the above and decide to listen anyway, get mad, and delete me from your social networking life, consider this my goodbye…Be safe out there. Don’t let The Heat get to you. #EVL (Evil Voice Laugh)
On July 8th whether you’re #TeamLebron or not, Lebron James had your attention. James announced during an 1 hour long presentation on ESPN that he was “taking his talents to South Beach” and joining the Miami Heat. After seven years with Cleveland Cavaliers, Lebron has taken full advantage of his free agency and heads to Miami to join what is being called “The Dream Team” including Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.
The kid is not my son. Lauren London does rumor control on her twitter of circulating baby pictures.
"Just bc I'm Kissing a baby doesn't mean it's mine" Says Lauren London on her twitter.
Compare it to searching for gold. Everyone is dying to see a picture of Lauren London and Lil Wayne’s son Lenox Carter. Yesterday the internet was buzzing when a picture of Lauren London kissing a baby began to circulate. Could it be true? Did we finally get a glimpse of the baby we have all been waiting for? No. According to a Tweet from Lauren London’s personal Twitter account, the picture is 2 years old and is of her godchild. The hunt continues…
FED UP! The Tonight Show host Conan O’Brien is abandoning his gig rather than move it to midnight in a blunt statement to NBC
The Tonight Show host Conan O'Brien releases a statement regarding his move to midnight
Conan O’Brien has finally had enough. Earlier this month NBC surprisingly made plans to return Leno to 11:35 and bump back the Tonight Show to 12:05 but not with Conan’s help. After releasing months of frustration into NBC in his monologue Monday night, O’Brien now writes a straightforward letter stating that the network’s plans would mean “the destruction” of the Tonight Show franchise. He is standing firm to his commitment to “The Tonight Show” and what it has meant to so many viewers, for so many decades. Here is what Conan O’Brien has to say to the recent events that have taken place:
People of Earth:
In the last few days, I’ve been getting a lot of sympathy calls, and I want to start by making it clear that no one should waste a second feeling sorry for me. For 17 years, I’ve been getting paid to do what I love most and, in a world with real problems, I’ve been absurdly lucky. That said, I’ve been suddenly put in a very public predicament and my bosses are demanding an immediate decision.
Six years ago, I signed a contract with NBC to take over The Tonight Show in June of 2009. Like a lot of us, I grew up watching Johnny Carson every night and the chance to one day sit in that chair has meant everything to me. I worked long and hard to get that opportunity, passed up far more lucrative offers, and since 2004 I have spent literally hundreds of hours thinking of ways to extend the franchise long into the future. It was my mistaken belief that, like my predecessor, I would have the benefit of some time and, just as important, some degree of ratings support from the prime-time schedule. Building a lasting audience at 11:30 is impossible without both.
But sadly, we were never given that chance. After only seven months, with my Tonight Show in its infancy, NBC has decided to react to their terrible difficulties in prime-time by making a change in their long-established late night schedule.
Last Thursday, NBC executives told me they intended to move the Tonight Show to 12:05 to accommodate the Jay Leno Show at 11:35. For 60 years the Tonight Show has aired immediately following the late local news. I sincerely believe that delaying the Tonight Show into the next day to accommodate another comedy program will seriously damage what I consider to be the greatest franchise in the history of broadcasting. The Tonight Show at 12:05 simply isn’t the Tonight Show. Also, if I accept this move I will be knocking the Late Night show, which I inherited from David Letterman and passed on to Jimmy Fallon, out of its long-held time slot. That would hurt the other NBC franchise that I love, and it would be unfair to Jimmy.
So it has come to this: I cannot express in words how much I enjoy hosting this program and what an enormous personal disappointment it is for me to consider losing it. My staff and I have worked unbelievably hard and we are very proud of our contribution to the legacy of The Tonight Show. But I cannot participate in what I honestly believe is its destruction. Some people will make the argument that with DVRs and the Internet a time slot doesn’t matter. But with the Tonight Show, I believe nothing could matter more.
There has been speculation about my going to another network but, to set the record straight, I currently have no other offer and honestly have no idea what happens next. My hope is that NBC and I can resolve this quickly so that my staff, crew, and I can do a show we can be proud of, for a company that values our work.
Have a great day and, for the record, I am truly sorry about my hair; it’s always been that way.
