DP.COM MANNY WATCH…

Wednesday, October 1st, 2008
I am getting my ass kicked seriously this year in the DP Dot Com Football Pool. I made the decision to give the readers at XXL a shot at their own pool. I’m losing in that one too since I use the same picks for both tournamants.
There’s still a lot of football left for the season but if my fortunes don’t turn around I will be giving all my new kicks to my friends. I used to be good at picking the spread. Not for long…
Who are these Kansas City Chiefs? Do they want to suck? I believe they do. I just wish they would consistently.
Atlanta is definitely a shitty squad. I won’t pick them to beat the spread any longer this season.
Where did the Jets get that offense? I can’t imagine that BRETT FAVRE can keep this up for the entire season.
Tampa Bay, who the fuck are you?
Philly?
No more prisoners for the rest of the season. I am on my Football Pick’Em grizzly.
SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

My internets cipher is fucking Imperial!
I fell thru VeE’s site and he had a drop on the artist that created mean ass movie posters like the one you see above. Hand painted movie posters, not that bitchmade photoshop shit that computer boys generate. VeE is also smashing shit on the political humor tip right now.
I checked my homey DirtyJerz’ page to see what vintage lifestyle wears he was flossing for the people and ‘Lo and behold (puns always intended) he did a drop on some Boba Fett NIKE SB Dunks.
Fucking Boba Fett!?! Sonn, is my all-universal favorite bounty hunter of all time.
Then my homey Grandmaster gave me a shout out because he had some SB links for me to peep. I told him about the Boba Fett SB’s and he just gave me the link to the hoodie that I must own NOW!
How fire is this hoodie?!? Flames I tell ya’. FLAMES!
DP versus COMBAT JACK: De La Soul
Wednesday, October 1st, 2008
What started off as a casual end of summer Sunday afternoon of imported beers enjoyed on the steps of a Brooklyn townhouse became a heated discussion with more platitudes and invectives than you would find in a presidential debate. If opinions are similar to assholes in that they are possessed buy one and all then I would have to rate my opinion to be greater than Combat Jack’s for virtue that my ass is more substantial [ll]. Nonetheless, the argument raged on…
“Which is De La Soul’s greatest album?”
‘3 Ft. High And Rising’
I choose this album because it had a profound effect on Hip-Hop and rap music. This album shatters the myth that only someone in a B-boy stance can produce rap music. The soundscape that Prince Paul crafts in 3ft was as futuristic and otherworldly as what the Bomb Squad was doing for Public Enemy.
Rap music is about lyrics too and De La Soul were unlike any rap group you have heard since them. Simile meets metaphor which is followed by obscure or arcane reference. De La Soul’s first album showed them to be pop culture deconstructionists on the level of rap music’s Jacques Derrida. Excuse my hyperbole, but that is how fucking good 3ft is to listen to. Plus philosophy might have been the only college class that I passed.

‘Buhloone Mindstate’
Combat Jack submits B.M. as De La’s best album because of Prince Paul’s maturity on this disk. We don’t find nearly as many skits or interludes on this CD. This, says Combat Jack, is a complete album.
The quirkiness in De La Soul’s lyrics is removed for a more serious tone which decries the music industry’s modus operandi as well as the the fickle tastes of our consumer culture. De La Soul has never been afraid to speak to us as adults when the situation calls for such, ugh, real talk. Is this why they are still playing in college gymnasiums? Maybe. It’s also why they are being given their due for Vh-1’s Hip-Hop Honors this year.

Dick farted…
The world is having a gasface moment because our lawmakers and moneychangers got a little too greedy minding the till. I’ll say this again so that we are all clear on the why-fors and the what-nots; Capitalism is supposed to devour everything in sight when it is working properly. Lassiez faire economic systems eventually have to vomit out all the caviar they have consumed. All that lobster tail every day will give you the gout and quick. Right now America has the gout. BUSCHE is trying to tell us that the gout is about to give us the AIDS unless we aid the fools that have no self control.
I admit that I have been hoodwinked by the BUSCHES every which way myself. While I knew that they were going to go apeshit with the oil prices I didn’t think that they would eff the banks in the ‘A’ (no Atlanta). If I had been paying attention I would have remembered the Silverdo schemes set up by NEIL BUSCHE. How many of us listening to N.W.A., Ice Cube and Public Enemy back in 1988 would believe that by 2008 we would have another BUSCHE ruining the country and RONALD RAYGUN would be viewed as the transcendent president?
The stakes now are way higher than when G DUBBZ coerced COLIN POWELL to appear before Congress and give his administrative war pitch. The biggest problem that the administration is facing now is that all the people who had integrity and could muster the trust of the American citizen have been driven underground. While all the vultures and hawks have been placed on perches so high above our view we won’t even see them when they swoop down to pick away the bones. PAUL WOLFOWITZ was the president of the World Bank up until last year when he was forced to resign because he caught misappropriating funds. Everywhere they go members of G DUBBZ administration bring their philosophy of scorching the Earth.
I don’t write this shit just to seem smart and make hyperlinks to Wikipedia. I write this shit in the hopes that we can all remember what the BUSCHES do to our country so hopefully we won’t elect JEB BUSCHE president in 2012.
