(Above is a picture taken just a few moments ago of me from my Web cam.........
......not really though ladies, holla at me)
Listen it's almost 2009...and I was hoping that I would have got out a nice best of 2008 post by now, or maybe even talk about the sox signing Brad Penny, and the slim possibility of a trade which would land them Hanley...BUT instead of doing all that, I decided today was a nice day to go to the mall. Now the reason why that is a little funny is because as you may well know, its a F*ing blizzard out there.
So yah I hit the median getting on the highway...I dealt with putting at 12 mph once I actually got on the highway....I sat in traffic in a snowstorm squinting to see out of my window, all of this to get a black collared shirt to wear tonight. I mean if I was just a normal 24 year old dude with a business degree, you would assume that I would at least have one of those by now, but I don't.
So back to the point of this post.....there actually is no real F*ing point is there? I came home, had / am having a few beers and getting ready to go out and celebrate the end of 2008 in the same fashion that I have been all year....as a sloppy, rude, ignorant drunk. So to all of you out there reading this, if I've said it once, I've said it at least like 78 times: Take it easy, and if its easy, take it home.
I will see you all in 2009 because that will be everyones F*ing joke today if you talk to them...Ha Ha, hey hope your more original in 2009. Alright seriously, go party and make regretful decisions. ONE.
Sometimes when I get tied up in youtube, I really just cannot stop. So long story short, I ended up watching about 100 youtube clips last night, and eventually ended up on some Tracy Morgan clips. I forgot how funny this dude is. Since I really don't want to put up clips that are like 5-10 minutes long here are a couple that came out about 4 years ago when he was doing the ESPN video game commercials. They are short...so go check em out.
I seriously RLOL at all of these. Maybe I just love Tracy Morgan more than most, but I sweat this dude. And my bad because I've been slagging on my bloggin lately, I'll get a good one out soon. This holiday shit (by holiday shit I mean drinking/partying every night) has really slowed me down. ONE.
Well...I mean not really, because I'm not introducing me. But on here to introduce my boy Wolfie (pictured above). He put in the work for the two posts below this one, and I figured I should at least give a shout out to him, and to anyone that reads this so you know what's up. Obviously I am not entertaining enough on my own, so I decided that it would be good to have more than just my ramblings up here. I'll be back with more later on. ONE.
(Disclaimer...Wolfie is NOT actually Eric Hinske, while there is definately some resemblence, Eric Hinske is NOT writing for WKFTB. That is all).
Cant really sleep tonight since Monday and Tuesday are going to act like normal days and its freaking me out. Not really even sure if Perk meant to give me full permission to post but we'll find out soon. Here are some youtubes that I enjoyed after finding them in the depths of the internet.
So who in the world would want to coach the Lions? Believe it or not a lot of real life candidates would, and no I'm not joking. I'll lay out my plan and explain why insiders don't think its a bad gig and candidates aren't shying away from picking up where Rod Marinelli left off. (A team that hasn't won since they beat the Chiefs over a calendar year ago.) Wait a minute though, I should probably tell you who I am first because this is not Jake folks.
If you're a Bentley person, AKA Perkins secret/other life, you don't know me. Otherwise, you probably do. For the former, they call me Wolfie. I'm just one of Perkins boys from back home. I'm a decent sports nerd, have an opinion on most everything, and usually let people know about it through my keyboard (AIM=xxwolfiexx). Its my outlet. If Perk keeps up with this blog then you'll see more of me as a part time contributor. OK enough about me, lets talk about the only team in the history of the NFL to lose every single game of an entire season and why its the best head coaching job available.
I heard this idea from Mike Lombardi on a podcast with the Sports Guy, but they were saying if you are Detroit, you throw serious coin at Cassell, and I agree with that. I think if you land him, and hire a competent head coach, you are on your way to flipping the script in the Motown. Realize that its a good football city, and the owners (Ford fam) are loyal (ask Matt Millen) so you will be given time to turn things around. You wouldn't be working for Al Davis here. Also anything you do accomplish will be an upgrade from this year. Win two games and you're on a good track in terms of perception. Win 8 games and you are hailed as a savior, etc. The ceiling for success and accolades is high, and you don't stand to risk anything.
In terms of personnel, lets keep going with the hypothetical that you sign Cassel. Now you have the number 1 pick remember, but since you have your franchise QB, you take a monster left tackle in Andre Smith from Alabama. So lets look at the offense. You have a good quarterback which is more than most teams in the league can say, a good young RB in Kevin Smith, a pro bowl problem child in Calvin Johnson, and now a franchise left tackle with your top draft pick. That offense behind a good coordinator wins 5 or 6 games on its own. Another little treat is that the Roy Williams trade was money in that it netted the Lions a first, 3rd, and 6th round draft pick. So with the other first rounder you scoop a blue chip pass rusher or a stud DB and the rebuilding process has begun.
Alright, thats it for now. Hopefully that didn't bore you guys. I also just saw on the ticker that the Sox signed Brad Penny for a 1yr 5m dollar deal. In a market where teams are locking up tons of money/years on question marks, this signing looks great to me. No real risk in it and Penny could be very good. Im sure Perk will throw in his 2 cents on that tomorrow though. Oh yea I should probably say something about hip hop in my first post too so let me just say that Jamie Foxx melts any track to me and peep She Got Her Own with Ne-Yo. Lastly, since Perk usually signs off in a cute way I'll toss out this toast after I just watched 25th hour and NYE is upon us.

I can't focus today enough to really get a post out there...so to all 3-4 of you that read this you will have to deal with this shit post im about to spew. First of all the Pats took care of business, as if there was ever any doubt. Now I have to root for the F*ing Jets and I'm sitting here screaming at my TV. If the Jets lose and the Ravens win (look like they are going to) the Pats might be the best team ever to not make the playoffs....or at least in my somewhat biased mind. By the way how pathetic are the cowboys??? They are patheticccccccccccccccccccccccccc. Anyways...here listen to this song, its fire.
The original version with Sam Cooke is also fire....and the Asher Roth, Charles Hamilton, and B.O.B. one is also fire. Go youtube them all and maybe we'll talk later. For now I'm outta here...right along with Brett Favre's career.
Don't really have much to say other than it's Saturday so if your reading this go party mannnnn. But any ways I'm heading out with my girl....I posted a video of her below. She is pretty dope. Also I don't know what is better about this video, this crazy ass chick or the person who tried to get the subtitles right. I think the video starts with her really saying "Anybody wanna see Young Jeezy kill Goerge Bush shawwttyyy??" Shit this thing thinks shes Young Jeezyyy wooooooorloll.
Alright it's saturday night...if your headed out, remember these words....Take it easy, and if its easy, take it home. GetEmmmm. ONE.
This dude TORCHED the Celtics tonight...especially in the 4th qaurter. But damnnnnnnn is he ugly. He is a 1st ballot HOFer for being FUGLY. Also on that ballot would be Joakim Noah, shit I can't even look at him in HD....Hate two losses in a row, but 19-2 in the last 21 games ain't too bad is it? Banner 18 ya bitchesssssssssssss. ONE.
Alright I just wanted to put all of you on another rapper that I feel is worth listening to. He is a Baltimore dude named NOE. He has a sound and flow like a younger Jay-Z. Especially right below on this dead presidents beat.
Here is another one....
And this last one is with Jim Jones, Twista, and Lil Wayne...NOE still holds his shit down though.
Are you feeling this dude or am I the only one?
By the way FFFFFFFF The Los Angeles Lakers, celebrating and shit like the won the NBA Title. We'll see who is on top at the end of June felllassssssss. ONE.
Shittttt I don't know how I got back on this youtube video that has been around for months, maybe even a year now. But after watching it I found even more on this kid. Including a second incident in a Wal-mart. So I'm posting the videos for this shit in chronological order. Enjoy...because I know that I am.
Ohhhh but it gets better. Listen to him at the end of this next video....kid is a GGGGGGGGGGGG.
And thennnnnnnn he flips out on his grandma in Wal-Mart because she won't buy the chubby lil thing chicken wings. RLOLLL.
Alright, I hope you enjoyed my pointless youtube postings. But I'm out to go do hoodrat stuff with my friends. ONE.
Just wanted to get a couple things out about Seven Pounds before I forgot. The movie features Will Smith as the main character, and Rosario Dawson and Woody Harrelson in supporting roles. I watched the movie last night in the theatres. I almost didn't even go to see the thing because Rotten Tomatoes gave it a solid D-. Also their little meter only had 23% of reviewers that liked it. After seeing the movie I am wondering what the F people look at when critiquing a movie. Do movie critics have no hearts/souls/emotions? The movie will play with your emotions, and I recommend you seeing it.....just maybe not with your boys in case for some reason you can't hold back the tears. My stomach legit hurt from trying to fight those bitches back at the end, sucked to do, and as I left I heard people sniffling all around me. But of course being a 24 year old man I jetted outta there as fast as I could just in case I let one squirt out, no one would see it.
Moving on.....I think I fell in love with Rosario Dawson in this movie. She is doppppeeeeeee. Rosario I know you are probably reading this right now, so just click on my profile and get at me. I'm sure we can work something out, I'm usually free like.....every night so, have your people call my people.
I have just heard word from WKFTB Sports correspondent Jared Wolfe that the New York Yankees have signed Santa Claus to a deal reportedly worth up to 100 billion dollars. The length of the contract....is well...forever. The above photo was taken by the Wolfe man as Santa flew into the city to sit down with Brian Cashman.
When asked for a comment Santa reportedly said, "Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas to all and to the AL East a good night....you bitches."
I can't even lie to any of you and say that I am not disappointed that the Red Sox did not sign Mark Teixeira. I wanted him in a Red Sox Uniform pretty badly...and how can you not? His career averages read like this: .290 batting average, .541 slugging %, 36 HRs, and 121 RBIs, along with gold glove play in the infield. The dude is a beast, there is no doubt about it.
HOWEVER, great teams are not made up of a bunch of individual stars making millions of dollars. If the Yankees have proven one thing in the past is that they have the ability to drastically underachieve based on their payroll. I saw a stat on SportsCenter last night which showed the payroll of the Yankees lineup...just their 1-9 everyday projected lineup to be about $124 million. That is an absurd amount of money, and the Yankees might not even be done yet. Crazy to think about how much money they have at their disposal....and to be honest you really can't even hate on them. If you have the money why not spend it? The Steinbrenner kid may just be out of his mind, but at least he wants to win, and he is not afraid to spend national income of Russia trying to do it. The Yankees have scary talent....but it doesn't always translate into World Series rings, and hopefully for the Red Sox Teixeira will just be another overpaid star on an already overpaid roster. Like I said though....HOPEFULLY.
Moving on to how this effects the Red Sox.....SHITTTTTTTTT. The injuries of Lowell, combined with the injuriy / slowing production of David Ortiz really scares me. You can't expect Pedroia and Youk to put up near MVP years again. What you can expect is for the pitching staff to be a little bit better. Beckett will have a better year, and Lester should be a great number 2 throughout the entire year. Dice-K still scares the living shit out of me, but he has proven to be effective. You throw in Masterson and Wake at the end of the rotation along with a solid bullpen that got one man deeper in the off-season and I think they are a solid group. Definitely going to be one of the top staffs in baseball....let's just hope we can put up some runs.
Hopefully the Sox can still land a good bat....there are a couple of guys out there. At this point I'd love to land Adam Dunn and watch him hit 45 HRs and strike out 245 times while hitting .250. Sox need some more production somewhere in their lineup, give me a big bat pleaseeeeeeeeeeee.
And oh yeah....the Rays are still going to be good. The AL East is going to be a battle again, I just hope the Red Sox are still in it October again.
Alright I can't take any credit for this, because I saw it today on a Boston blog site Barstool Sports But this shit was toooo good not to post. This girl set off the fire alarm or some shit because she tried to use a fire extinguisher to make it look like it snowed....??? Whatever happened, this shit is crazy. Imagine a college dude crying like this...wouldn't happen, and if it did the kid would get the shit kicked out of him by his friends within minutes for being such a bitch. Watch it, its worth the 90 seconds.
Also, I'm going to try and not make it a habit to rip off other sites...especially Barstool since I read the shit every day. I'm number.....
Alright first off I want to say that I love Christmas as much as anyone else....buttttttt I honestly had to get this out there, because for the past 3-4 years I have been watching these ridiculous commercials, and I can't figure out why they are back every year. I mean, maybe its just because myself, or no one I hang around with would ever have this happen to them or their family, but are people really buying lexus' for Christmas? "Merry Christmas Dad, here is a Lexus..." Does that shit happen in the real world? Every year I watch these same bullshit ads, and coming from a business school and getting a degree in marketing I wonder if this shit works. Does anyone see these ads and say to themselves "Shit I still haven't gotten anything for my wife for Xmas, this commercial has convinced me that I should buy them a Lexus" C'mon nowwwwww.....Lexus probably spends millions on these ad campaigns every year to produce this bullshit. I know I'm ranting like crazy right now, but I'm not even convinced anyone else reads this besides me so...deal with it.
Just a short one for now....might be back with some more later. ONE.
Alright everyone I'm back on here, even though I know there might be 2 people that have even read this thing, I'm going to keep it going any ways. First of all I gotta tell you that the thought behind this post came from XXL online...which just recently had an article about the top 10 hip-hop trends that need to go in 2009. (Here is the link to hiphopegame.com which is where I read the article...by the way I hope your impressed that I figured out how to put the link in there like that chyeaaaaaaaaa).
So moving on....on the list is something about getting rid of the hit formula that is featuring Lil Wayne, T-pain, or Akon. For all of you that follow the mixtape hip-hop y'all know that you have seen featuring Lil Wayne with everyone from Jay-Z to the homeless dude on the corner. The dude jumps on a track with everyone, which I guess can be a good thing, but damnnnn he flooded hip-hop with it. I've always been a fan of Wayne, when he puts out his best work, he is one of the best if not the best in the game....BUT the way he puts out music lately has me questioning him. I know dude wants to stay busy, and is always making music and I respect that, but it needs to be GOOD music. All summer I suffered through Carter III withdrawals as Wayne is putting out shit that I don't even get...and maybe I wasn't supposed to get but I thought he fell off. Since then he has definitely come back with some fire, but why not take a look at the top. Think about what a Jay-Z track does to you...first of all if its a good month Jay is on one MAYBE two tracks, and there both fire. I look forward to seeing Jay-z pop up on a mixtape.....shit I see Wayne on every mixtape of every DJ, the shit just doesn't mean as much anymore. As I said Wayne has been killing it lately, I hope he stays on this hot streak and stops putting out meaningless shit just to get something on record.
Alright...now that I got that out of the way I gotta be a hypocrite and post this Wayne song Hot Revolver because it's crazy. Enjoy. And if your reading this and like it...tell someone else about it shit. I still don't have a comment or n e thing. Eventually I will ramble about something other than music too, I'm versatile babbbyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. ONE.
While I'm on Charles Hamilton I figured I would throw some words into this beef that is going on right now. For whatever reason Soulja Boy and Charles Hamilton have a nice beef going on....a week ago I saw a video of Soulja boy speaking out on Charles. Here it is.....
"I don't know that guy....you know him...not me..."
Yo for real...Soulja boy....C'mon mannnnnnnnnnnnn. I have more talent than you. You don't even sell records, you sell dances man. This is just one video, there are a couple other ones of this clown speaking out, but I don't want to waste my time on em, if your trying to see them go to thisis50.com, or just youtube them, that's on you.
Here is a response from Charles Hamilton
"My video is so good looking....now I'm gaurenteed to get pussy from erry dime piece in Brooklyn..."
That's it for now, its way to early to be posting rap beefs damnnnnnnn.
So here it goes folks....my first attempt at blogging. I gotta be real with you, I have no real plans for this shit. I guess for now I'm just out here winging it, but hey ya gotta start somewhere right? I can already tell that I'm gunna be real rough around the edges, and you'll have to excuse my spelling on here because most likely I'm going to just type how I talk and not be too proper. But if your looking for that proper shit this is probably the wrong spot for you anyways. Anyways, if you can't tell by the title I am in fact a white dude from the Burbs. I guess the title may be misleading because I guess being 24 years old does not make me a kid anymore. I'm heavy into hip-hop, and probably spend way too much of my free time listening to, and downloading music. Right now I gotta give a shout to Charles Hamilton man. I was just on his blog for a couple of hours trying to catch up on what he's been writing and the shit is incredible. If you haven't already you gotta head to his blog http://www.charleshamilton.blogspot.com/. I don't know if that is going to link you to it or not because like I said I'm green at this blog stuff, but yah check it out. While I'm on Charles Hamilton, if you don't know him, youtube him PLEASE. Especially if your into hip-hop, because the dude has a bright future. Below is his video for the song Brooklyn Girl. Check the shit out cuz its flames....
Yeahhhhh you know I wouldn't steer you wrong....or maybe you don't....yet. Some other dudes that I'm feeling right now that you might have slept on a little bit are Ca$his (rolls with Slim Shady and Interscope), and Joe Budden. For now I'm going to try and stop myself from putting maddddd videos in here but here is some shit from each of them that I'm on right now....
Cashis - Never Enough
Joe Budden - Just to be different
Man Joe Budden has been around forever....can't figure out why he hasn't blown up yet. Maybe I'm the only one feeling him, but I think he has skill. See I have a problem in that I think that because I listen to rap so much that I really KNOW it...like my opinions are truth. Obviously that is not the case so your just going to have to deal with that for now.
Moving on...but STILL staying on that hip-hop shit...have you heard Asher Roth? I can't even pretend like dude doesn't have skill because he does, but DAMN, if your a white rapper why would you want to sound and rhyme just like Eminem? Seperate yourself man....If you haven't heard him already check this out.
Asher Roth - Cannon freestyle
Like I said, the dude can spit. Just sounds too much like Em on most of his shit....I'm not hating, just saying.
The hip-hop game is crazy right now by the way. I know it went through a small "Hip-hop is dead" phase but the shits rebounding like crazy. There are dumbbbbb amounts of new music out right now. I'm talking from new mixtape shit, right through maintstream albums. Going back to the beginning of Summer (shit just thinking on that warm weather depresses me) we've seen albums from Lil Wayne, TI, The Game, Kanye, Ludacris, G-Unit, and Young Jeezy. Those are some monsters, and rumored to be on the way soon are albums from Jay-Z and 50....and rumored for the last like 5 years Dr. Dre, and even Eminem.
How is everyone feeling about 50 these days anyways? Is he played out? Did he sell out? One things for sure he's not the same dude that put out Get Rich or Die Trying...that album was hardddd man. I bumped that for months man...the song HEAT had me just looking for someone to beef with. But anyways I'm just rambling now...hopefully I will be able to get on here sometime later today and get some more thoughts out. I hope this was entertaining for at least one person other than myself....ONE.
