Dave Ellis was more than a friend. He was more than a coworker at WMUC in College Park. He was the ultimate hip hop head and truly one of the best human beings I’ve ever known. I’m not a religious guy, but I thank God that I got to spend time with Dave Ellis. He […]

The following review is a response to the countless calls and emails I have received from people dissing the first movie that I have loved in 2008 (I haven’t seen Juno yet), Cloverfield. An asterisk in the review denotes that I am responding to specific criticism that I have heard of the movie.

I see a […]

I have been spending the last day thinking about how to write my last story of the week about Sean Taylor. This has been one of the worst weeks I can remember. I guess I have a pretty good life, but for me–watching my brother have routine (but very unexpected surgery) and dealing with the […]

Yesterday was a nightmare. Every Redskin fan feels the same. You cannot get your mind off of the tragic death of Sean Taylor. It makes no sense. We don’t know him personally. He just entertained us, right? Maybe he led a horrible life and this was bound to happen. That’s what people keep saying to […]

All the prayer and vigils were not enough for Sean Taylor. Another talented young kid has been killed for absolutely no reason. He was the best player on the Washington Redskins. This feels no different for me than the loss of Biggie or Big L (Biggie also died at 24), or any other talented young […]

There are very few situations in this world in which I could be considered an ABSOLUTE EXPERT of the highest order. If you want to know how to run some serious myspace or facebook game, holla atcha boy–you’ll have a late night jump-off before you know it. If you’re comparing the legacies of Bret Hart […]

So I’m sitting here trying to DJ in the fine fast food restaurant that I hold down as the bars get out on Friday and Saturday nights in downtown DC and somehow—Duke has found a way to fuck up my night.
I mean Duke has been good to me this week. They lost to […]

Man I’m excited for the Terps. This has really been an impressive run. It’s sort of depressing to think about what this team could have been had DJ Strawberry or Mike Jones ever played up to potential. In 2004, all I heard was, “Mike Jones is the most talented player on the team. Watch!” And […]

God I’ve never cared about the Oscars less. I mean I enjoy celeb stuff. I watch Vh1. I go to the movies. But five hours of self congratulation among the most worshipped-for-no-reason people on Earth is too much for me. So basically–get ready for some good old fashioned hating….
Ok why do all the red carpet […]
