Crunked Out!

If you haven't seen the Pacman Jones video on ESPN, here it is in all it's glory:


A few rants:

• I don't think there is anything that "offensive" in the video like ESPN keeps warning you. All the nudity is blurred and cursing is bleeped. The scene is so chaotic, you can't really see what is going on anyways. There is much more "offensive" scenes on primetime television.
• It's awesome that Nelly is there, even better that he waves off the guy videotaping this. Nelly knows that something stupid is going to happen, he doesn't want to be in on it.
• The scene with Jermaine Dupri yelling at the strippers is great. Who does that?
  
• Why does this club let people video tape this? Could you imagine trying to video tape at a strip club? I actually sat next to this guy at a bar 2 weeks ago that said at a bachelor party, a bouncer broke his friends phone because he thought he was taking a picture of a dancer, when he was actually trying to get a signal to send a text. Oh wait, I have the answer.....money.
• I love how ESPN explains what making it rain is to its culturally-ignorant audience. (here is a video definition)
  
• The amount of money being dropped at this club nightly is sick. You wonder how so many celebrities and rap artists go bankrupt, they spend ridiculous amounts of money.
• I laugh (and cried) at the end when ESPN said that Pacman has a daughter and a family to take care of. I pray for this kid.
  
• It was also humorous when they mentioned that Pacman was trying to get back into the NFL, the only career he knows. I believe he is still banned from the league, and which team would want him. Sad. He is going to have to quickly find another career he is good at.

This is my new favorite clip on ESPN, ever.

Here is my new favorite picture of all time. There is no story needed.

Charities, who needs them?

As you all know I have had Charitable Donations on my On Notice List for awhile now. The reason I question them is because of me receiving constant mail about donating money to schools I have attended throughout the years. I have also questioned throughout the years how much money that you give to charities actually go to the cause and how much goes to paying for their pamplets and their "volunteers." However, I do not think charities are useless and should not be supported. Jay Bilas of ESPN thinks otherwise.

I was watching Sports Center this morning while sobering up and they were having a piece on today's NCAA basketball games. They were talking about USC's O.J. Mayo (is that a real name?) and how he is not going to be suspended for taking free tickets to the Lakers-Nuggets games from Carmelo Anthony. O.J. Mayo was however made to donate the $480 to a charity. Then it came to Jay Bilas' turn to give his two cents. What he said was "O.J. Mayo shouldn't be forced to give this money to a charity, he should give the money to the Lakers, they are the ones who lost the money on the comped tickets." What? Why does Jay Bilas hate charity and want O.J. Mayo to give his money to the Lakers, who I am pretty sure are not missing that $480. (I think Kobe Bryant makes that amount 2 seconds into the game.

I think it is a perfectly fine punishment to make someone give money to charity, but maybe Carmelo Anthony, he's the one making millions in the NBA. It's probably not the worst idea for athletes and celebrities to give more money to charity, it could give them all a better image. In fact if the NBA forced its players to give money to charity, it may no longer be dead to me.
