To all of our faithful readers out there in cyberspace, happy holidays. You might have missed us, but we miss you more. One particular commenter noticed that I have not made a post in a while. Unlike some of the Too Old crew, I have been working double duty and some cases triple duty this holiday season. Niggas are losing their jobs, and it’s not the economy, it’s that I have been collecting them to make extra scratch! Not only am I working the regular grind teaching, but I am trying to get my hustle on at Santa Clara, and I am coaching womens basketball. With time constraints like that, coupled with the simple challenge of living and trying to have a little fun, something has got to give and it has been my posting.

Well, I am back to attempt to moisturize my situation and make things right in cyberspace. A little sports tidbit came out that mentioned Jermaine O’Neal slapped Karrine Steffans on the azz. Many of you know this woman. You might not know the name, but maybe the face rings a bell…

No, the one of the right is Halle Berry, and you know how we feel about her here. We love you Halle! In the middle is HBO’s latest playa, Bill Maher. Politically Incorrect was funny until 09/11/2001, when you couldn’t make jokes about the government anymore. On the left, is the infamous Karrine Steffans. If you didn’t know the name, you might know her by her other moniker, Superhead.

link is here too

Normally nicknames are to be earned. We frown on self promotion or gloss. But, in this case, it is deserved.

Now, doing porn doesn’t make you famous or good at what you do. In this case, I would have to agree that the moniker is well deserved. Here is a link to show her at her best (WARNING! If you couldn’t tell, this link will take you to a video that is ADULT in nature. THIS IS NOT A WORK APPROPRIATE VIDEO! Consider yourself warned…) http://www.empflix.com/view.php?id=19645

Now, for another test. (Take a break if you need to clean yourself up…) What is the difference between these two ladies?

Give up? Well they both are famous because of a leaked sex tape, but only one has a future in the activity. (Editor’s note… Making a porn doesn’t make you news. Does anyone remember A Night in Paris?

My point exactly.) Sometimes doing the porn only exposes you for who you really are… Paris, you are rich BECAUSE OF YOUR PARENTS. We would not have cared about your porn, if you didn’t have the Hilton name. You would be some random attractive blond girl who is actually not that good in the sack.

Some of us here are ga-ga over Kim K, but I really don’t see it. I think that she is clearly attractive and has a great backside, but really, what else is she bringing to the table? Okay, the magic box enthralled and got Reggie caught up in the rapture. Thanks Kim, you have wrecked many a man (and some women) fantasy team with the voodoo you placed on Reggie. Maybe the box was so good that Reggie got weak in the knees and they couldn’t withstand the brutality of the sport. But, whatever the reason, your man stunk this year at the game of football. Outside of the attachment to Reggie, what are you good for? Your show is a joke and the fact that you are pimping yourself out must make your dear old dad roll over in the grave. (R.I.P. O.J. Lawyer….if you were still with us Robert, OJ would not be in the predicament that he currently finds himself in right now.) I had to even watch an episode when you pimp out Bruce Jenner, since he is tapping your mom now.

At least Karrine has street smarts. Her business is already in the streets. Do you really think that stupid rappers and athletes are going to keep the tryst a secret? Heeeaaalllll nah! They are going to tell a friend and they mommas friend and so on. At that point, what does your silence get you? We are still going to think the same of you.

One, we think that you get around, like a Tupac song (hint, hint E?)

here as well

Two, we would love to tap that…

Three, make sure we wear a double strength condom (On a separate note, why hasn’t someone capitalized on that? Bagman! The double strength condom, for when you are not sure who make times she has been around the block! Now with two ply for extra protection!)

Now, here is where I am going to be guilty of the double standard Karrine. I am fine with you making and selling a porn (you too Kim, although Ray J really pimped you in that one…since he produced it and you HAD to go along with it. In fact, you got more cred doing the video than for anything else, like your girl Paris.) and the fact that you have written two books about it. That is the money driven street Hustler that is attractive. But, when you are pandering in the press for more attention and attempting to blow down someone’s house with a story about HOW JERMAINE O’NEAL slapped you on the ass, just move on. You have jumped the shark and your time is over.

The video for this is here… I didn’t bother to watch it, since what could it tell me that I already didn’t know? You could also just call the cops if you really felt assaulted by him. Why just post it on the internet? In one part of the video, I hear that she tells him that now this is all over the internet, like a blackmail scheme gone bad. Just sit down, continue to do your bizness, and keep it moving… no one has time for pettiness.

I have to admit that I have a soft spot for the New York Knicks.  I wanted Patrick Ewing to get a chip once my Lakers were out of the playoffs.  With Isaiah running them into the ground, the hiring of Donnie Walsh (who lost the race with Larry Bird in Indiana) and D’Antoni losing the battle in the Valley of the Sun, due to his teams getting blown out by the upper echelon of the western conference.

A lot of coaches and GM’s come in wanting to place their stamp on the program that they are taking over.  Also like a lot of the politicians, we hear them talking out the side of their mouths about what they are going to do and what actually happens.

Both Walsh and D’Antoni claimed that Steph Marbury would have a clean state with a new administration.  Well, so much for that statement. After the first game, it is clear that they are attempting Steph to act black and curse someone out, so that they have cause to leave him at home.  Well, here is hoping your plan doesn’t work.  Steph, do your thing and collect your money and don’t accept a penny less than what you are owed.

It gets worse, when the fans start rooting for Steph to be placed in the game, D’Antoni, flips his wig and curses out the fans for having an opinion.  Look, you can be a dictator with your players, but the fans are what drive the payroll of your team.  Its funny, because look at the difference a day could make.  Here is what Newsday reported yesterday on October 30th

Yet asked directly if he swore at the fans for it, D’Antoni flatly replied, “There’s no way I would do that to the fans.” It should be noted that the pro-Marbury chants were hardly something the sellout crowd sang in unison, akin to the famous “Jeff Van-Gun-dy!” chants from almost a decade ago. Wednesday night’s chant came from a pocket of fans, though very loud, who eventually were drowned out by even louder boos from most of the rest of the intolerant Garden crowd.

The Garden fans always have been a main character in anything the Knicks do at home, be it good, bad or ugly. It was just last season when Isiah Thomas created a tabloid frenzy when he jawed with fans near the Knicks’ bench and scolded them for not supporting the team.

But Thomas was the target of the fans’ ire for the entire season and, arguably, for most of his tenure as team president. D’Antoni, however, heard one of the loudest cheers from the crowd during pregame introductions in his Garden debut as the Knicks’ coach.

The controversial moment came with 11:10 left in the fourth quarter, after a foul was called on Mardy Collins. The Knicks were ahead 93-77, but the big lead they built in the third already was starting to slip away. A chant of “We Want Steph!” initially was heard during the third quarter, when the Knicks held their largest lead. But another chorus rose up as the foul was called on Collins and D’Antoni could be seen turning toward the area where the chants emanated and, with a glare, mouthed, “Are you — – kidding me?”

D’Antoni also was caught by MSG Network cameras adding, “What a bunch of — — .”

When confronted about it twice Thursday, D’Antoni apologized for his use of expletives and said, “I’ve got to do a better job.”

Here is what is being reported by the Post a day later…

Mike D’Antoni had no time to enjoy his first victory as Knicks coach, because he was on the defensive yesterday after TV cameras caught him in a cursing fit while fans were chanting for banished Stephon Marbury to be put into the game.

With some in the Garden crowd surprisingly chanting “We Want Steph” with 11:10 remaining in the fourth (others booed the chant), a stewing D’Antoni was caught on MSG Network cameras Wednesday in a tirade, mouthing:

“You’ve got to be (bleeping) kidding me. You’ve got to be (bleeping) kidding me. What a bunch of (bleep) holes.”

Yesterday after practice, D’Antoni acknowledged his frustration with the Marbury chanters, showing how strongly he believes the lightning-rod point guard does not belong on the court. Marbury received a DNP, his second of his career, and is out of the rotation indefinitely despite likely being the team’s most skilled player.

“Sometimes I don’t think the fans quite get it,” D’Antoni said. “It’s like who you draft. They’re going to boo. When you make a big decision, someone’s going to like it, someone’s not. You’ll hear from the people who don’t.

“Did I look exasperated?” D’Antoni added. “I was into the game. You get so much adrenaline at that point and you react. I’m into the game, into the moment. Sometimes I can be better than that. I’ll make mistakes. I’ll do better.”

D’Antoni is known for his emotional rants on the sidelines, his battles with officials and his stubbornness and belief in his convictions that eventually led to his feud with Suns’ management.

Well, Knicks fans, it will remain exciting, even with a change…
