Fan Made Transformer (Possibly for Sequal?)
Author: RL
Pulled this from IESB.NET. Definitely a dope concept for Devastator I believe that appeared in either the comic or cartoon sometime with the rest of the Construction Decepticons.

Floyd Talks About Miguel Cotto on ESPN
Author: RL
So according to Floyd, Cotto has to be his own "CEO" to get a fight with Floyd (SMH).
I understand there's a problem with Bob Arum (Top Rank Promoter)and Floyd from their past relationship, but does he really think a Cotto vs Floyd fight won't generate any money??? Is he out of his mind???
2009 can't be here any sooner...
Throwback: Hityawitdat / On & On - Lootpack

Good luck finding this album now. Definitely one of the great late 90's Hip Hop albums that came out of the West Coast and spawned the career of Madlib (and Quasimoto).
Optimus Prime Spotted In LA?!?
Author: RL
This pic was taken by someone driving on the 405 Freeway in LA. There have been talks about the filming of Transformers 2 through out LA the past few weeks. If this isn't an obvious sign, I don't know what is.
Damn...2009 is going to be nuts!

Short Circuit Gets A Remake
Author: RL
LMAO...oh man how are they going to replicate this movie 20 years later? I wonder if they're going to holla at Debarge for the soundtrack single LOL.
From www.comingsoon.net
Dimension Films has acquired rights to remake the 1986 film, Short Circuit, reports Variety.
The original introduced Number 5, a robot built by the military to be a highly sophisticated weapon. It developed a conscience and a personality after being hit by lightning, and then needed the help of humans after it was targeted for destruction by its makers, once it became a peacenik.
S.S. Wilson and Brent Maddock, who created the characters and wrote both "Short Circuit" films, have been hired to write the remake.
David Foster and Ryan E. Heppe will produce with John Hyde.

RIP Frosty Freeze (RSC)
Author: RL
News is starting to surface about the sudden death of one of the original Rocksteady Crew members Frosty Freeze. No info has been released yet about the cause of death.
He was definitely a pioneer in the world of B Boyin and Hip Hop all around.
BTW: If ya'll are "Hip Hop heads" and you've never seen this movie, smack yourselves.
**Update** Word is Frosty (Real name Wayne Frost)was suffering from a long illness. My condolences to his family and the entire RSC.
Kid Makes New Usher Song On GarageBand
Author: RL
LOL...this is kinda funny. This kid claims Polow Da Don took stock sounds from the GarageBand program for the Mac and made the new Usher song Make Love in the Club. These days the argument of what you use to make a beat is thrown out the window considering a lot of these programs are stepping their game up.
Magnum P.I. = Matthew McConaughey?

New Kids on the Block Return? WTF?
Author: RL
LOL! Oh man. If Ronnie, Bobby, Ralph, Ricky & Mike couldn't do it, these fools won't. Supposedly they're reuniting to do an album or some sort. We'll see how this pans out.
Throwback: Fakin Jax - INI & Pete Rock
Author: RL
One of my favorite joints of all time. Get this album if you don't have it. It was released a few years back after Elektra dropped them in the mid 90's.

Great Opening Day For Santana
Author: RL
Yea Yea it's only the 1st game of the season...but fuck it, Santana looked great. My main issue last year was the lack of pitching. The bats still seem to be there and they still got a fairly young squad. People are going to hate, but let's see how they pan put up until All Star Break.

Mayweather vs Big Show (Video)
Author: RLWrestlemania XXIV: Flair's Night
Author: RL
Wresltemania XXIV has come and gone. The major push for the annual PPV this year was obviously Floyd Mayweather vs Big Show. But that match had nothing on what this weekend meant to Pro Wrestling.
This was undoubtedly Ric Flair's weekend. Not only was he inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, but he wrestled his last match against none other than Shawn Michaels. Flair at 59 can still put on a show and both HBK and Flair put on great performances with an almost theatrical ending as HBK super kicked a beaten Flair signaling the end of an era. Everyone in the Citrus Bowl was on their feet applauding, crying, and giving thanks to the Greatest Wrestler of All Time.
Here's a vid of backstage after the match (watch while you can...you know how Youtube does):
