Rihanna Speaks Out.....Months Later

So last night i watched on CNN Singer and alleged victim of Domestic Violence, Rihanna speak out on her and Pop Icon Chris Brown's Relationship. Now everyone knows what happened, as it has been posted all over the web, on TV, in magazines, and so forth for months now. Rihanna claimed that she was beaten and abused my Chris Brown one night as they were returning home from a Award Show afterparty. Now listen to this folks, i have a few issues with this incident here. Yea ok, i do stand behind the fact that no matter what, a man should not EVER put his hand on a woman, but in this case there has to be some behind the scenes action. 1. Last night, Rihanna said that she saw a text in Chris' phone from one of his ex-girlfriends. Now no matter what the situation is, I personally feel that NO FEMALE should ever go through a mans phone (Man Law # 23, Section 1, pg. 11, par. 5, line 16) Thats her fault...She doesnt know the background on that text, nor does she know how or whether or not Chris would have handled it accordingly. So for that she deserves it. 2. There is NO WAY IN THE WORLD that Chris could have done all of that to her while driving a car, without them both being seriously injured. I dont care what, when, why, or how we was driving, I dont see how he managed to beat her up like that and still live today to talk about it. Shoot, i have problems texting while im driving, better yet eating while driving. So give me a break ther Rihanna... 3. Is Chris Brown that crazy to just snap and start beating her??...See theres an issue with females right there, Last night she admitted that she wouldnt leave the situation alone. Females feel that they HAVE to have the last word. An "argument" can never end when it comes to a female. And then on top of that, i know the reaction of a female to situations like that. If a female sees something that has to do with another female, then their first instinct is to SLAP a man. But then they go and cry that Domestic Violence BS when a man hits them back. So i just cant see how Chris just flipped out on her for no reason... So something isnt right here. Is Rihanna not telling the whole truth? Is this whole issue being shaded to the fact that Domestic Violence is a big issue in the world today? What does Chris have to say about her appearance on television? Who knows..but let me know what you think Folks!

YANKEES WIN! THEEEE YANKEEEEEES WIN!!!

"Concrete Jungle where dreams are made of"....And those dreams came true last night! Congrats to the NY Yankess as they beat the Philadelphia Phillies to clench their 27th World Series Title. The Bronx Bombers posted a 7-3 win last night behind the hot bat of Asian Sensation Hideki Matsui and the powerful arm of Veteran Andy Pettitte. As the Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano fielded the last out in the 9th inning last night, no one could have stopped his teammates from storming the field as the Yankees 9 year wait for a World Championship came to an end. But what about Hideki Matsui??? Tying Bobby Richardson for the most RBI's in a World Series game with 6, he led the Yankees throughout the night earning himself the MVP award, well deserved on his part. Andy Pettitte working a short rest came out and gave the Yankees exactly what they needed in a veteran pitcher. The velocity, control, leadership, and poise on the mound proved to be the tools for success not only during the World Series, but throught the season. One can agree that the arms of the Yankee bullpen really propelled the Yanks to success, not to mention the on-field leadership and magnificent play of Derek Jeter, and Alex Rodriguez. Its time to celebrate New York!!! I dont know about you, but i know that i will be in Big Apple on Friday to take a part in the celebration. Its time to get in that "EMPIRE STATE OF MIND".....CUZ IM IN NEW YORK, CONCRETE JUNGLE WHERE DREAMS ARE MADE OF!!!

The NY Yankees Chase for their 27th World Championship

Tonight the New York Yankees will face the Philadelphia Phillies in the Bronx for Game 6 of the 2009 World Series. The Yankees are pushing towards their 27th World Championship, and their first in the Newly built Yankee Stadium. On the other side, the phillies are looking to post a repeat as they come to the Bronx preparing for war. On the mound for the Yankees is 37 Year old Andy Pettitte who is working off of 3 days rest which should provide for the explosiveness that the Yankees are used to. On the other side, the Phillies are following behind the arm of 38 year old Pedro Martinez, who has returned from injury to conclude his first season with the Phillies. This should be a great matchup, i believe. The two have not faced each other since May 31st, of 1998 which was during the playing days of Yankees Manager Joe Girardi. Tonight is the night, will the Yankess feed off the hot bat of A-Rod, or will the Phillies Chase Utley force a crucial game 7? Catch all the action and more tonight at 7 pm on Fox
