Drake As Obama?




New York Post reports:

"I hope somebody makes a movie about Obama’s life soon because I could play him. That's the goal," the rapper told VH1 News at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this week..."I watch all the addresses," he says. "Any time I see him on TV, I don’t change the channel. I definitely pay attention and listen to the inflections of his voice. If you ask anyone who knows me, I’m pretty good at impressions."..."I've been reading scripts for awhile," he said. "I want to do something great. I want to do something for my culture: The younger people who are still in tune with everything going on. I’m actually writing with my friends right now."

Drake, don't quit your day job and I'm pretty sure Denzel already has that role locked.  Plus, you're first movie shouldn't go down in history as one of the worst. Rappers can't act, they already do a bad job pretending they had a hard life growing up in the rich suburbs while living in their mom's basement. Just sayin'.

    You do realize that before Aubrey Graham became "Drake", the famous rap superstar, he played the roll of "Jimmy Brooks" on the hit teen drama series, Degrassi? lol. That's why he doesn't sing about "thug life" and "growing up in the hood" because everyone would know it's a lie. I saw a video of him talking about it on YouTube during a radio interview. But you're right about one thing.. He really wasn't the best actor. No one on the cast was, actually. The plots were usually pretty interesting, but the actors/actresses didn't pull off the emotion very well at all. I don't doubt they'll make a movie about Obama though. Lord knows it'd be racist if they didn't. *rolls eyes

That's so Favre

"While Iowa continues its preparations for the season, sophomore running back Brandon Wegher remains at home in South Dakota , making his status uncertain. Hawkeyes coach Kirk Ferentz is waiting for word from Wegher about whether he will join the team. "I guess all I can say is we all have periods in our lives where we reflect a little bit and think about things," Ferentz said. "I think that's pretty much where he's at right now, sorting through some things. We're certainly hopeful that he chooses to come back. It's going to be his decision, either way." Wegher ran for a 641 yards and set a school record for freshman with eight touchdowns last season. He was to compete with fellow sophomores Jewel Hampton and Adam Robinson for playing time." Bro, enough with the Brett Favre like drama. Make up your mind already. Check out more coverage of the Wegher drama here: Black Heart Gold Pants

A Heartless Woman

Mindy Greany WATERLOO,IA --- A Grundy Center woman has been sentenced to prison for stealing from people with disabilities. As a credit counseling company employee, Mindy Sue Greany, 31, oversaw the funds of the blind and mentally challenged --- people who needed help keeping track of their money. Instead, she siphoned more than $100,000 from their accounts at Family Management Credit Counselors in Waterloo. On Friday, District Court Judge Margaret Lingreen sentenced Greany to spend up to 10 years in prison for her pleas to six counts of first-degree theft, eight counts of second-degree theft and one count of third-degree theft. One of the credit counseling clients had a simple question for Greany when he took the witness stand during sentencing. "He said 'Why did you steal from me?'" said Roger Goldsberry, director of Family Management Credit Counselors. Greany was an administrative assistant at the organization and took money between July 2003 and July 27, 2...

"Love it or Leave it Color Coordination"

From BHGP.com: [Memo dictated by Tad Shamarharhar, Assistant Athletic Director for Color Coordination, Wave Production and Rhythmic Chanting, for general release] "The Penn State game was a great success. I don't think anyone thought we could get the Kinnick crowd to pull off the stripe effect, but we did it. Note to self: if I ever realize my lifelong dream of pulling off a coup d'etat in this country, remember that the Iowans follow directions well. Very well. Don't write that last part down. It was an impressive effort, but I think we have just touched the tip of the iceberg in terms of fan color coordination. We can, nay, we must go farther. Here are the color coordination instructions I have prepared for the Wisconsin game: If you are sitting in section 122, row 45, seats 1-15, you should wear navy If you are sitting in section 122, row 45, seats 16-25, you should wear royal blue If you are sitting in section 122, row 45, seats 26-40, you should wea...
