Plaxico Burress

hahahah dumbass



The New York Giants wide receiver accidentally shot himself in the leg on Friday night, FOXSports.com has learned, not long after being ruled out of Sunday’s game against the Redskins with a hamstring injury IN THE SAME LEG.

He spent the night in the hospital and the injuries are not believed to be life-threatening. The team is still trying to gather further information on the incident.

New Albums


I currently have some ENTIRE ALBUMS circulating on my playlist right about now..don't you love when the WHOLE album is good as opposed to buying a CD and only liking the single and maybe one or two other tracks??

Right now in rotation I have Kanye West's 808's & Heartbreak, The Killers' Day & Age, Death Cab for Cutie's Narrow Stairs, and Kings of Leon's Only by the Night. I mean, it's not just one or two songs but each and every song on these albums are really really good.

What I feel these albums have in common are that they are different then the albums prior, and I feel that the music and lyrics are evolving. The artists have taken steps forward and are working towards breaking new ground. And I know that not everyone will agree with me, but I applaud these artists for doing what they do. As cheesy as it may sound, I feel that they have poured their blood, sweat & tears into the creative process that went into these albums and it reflects in the music.

I'd love to know what you think, so check em out and get back to me!


Standout tracks:
Street Lights, Robocop, Heartless, Amazing, See You in My Knightmares


Standout tracks:
Losing Touch, Human, Joy Ride, A Crippling Blow


Standout tracks:
Cath..., No Sunlight, I Will Possess Your Heart, You Can Do Better Than Me


Standout tracks:
Closer, Use Somebody, Sex on Fire, Revelry, I Want You

Spidey 4 & 5 news!

taken from yahoo! news


Los Angeles (E! Online) – With its director and star in place, Spider-Man 4 is about to snare a Pulitzer Prize winner in its web.

David Lindsay-Abaire, the playwright who won the nation's highest literary achievement for his 2006 drama, The Rabbit Hole, is in final talks with Columbia Pictures to pen the latest superhero sequel, per the Hollywood Reporter.

Both director Sam Raimi and star Tobey Maguire signed on last month to the fourth and fifth web-slinger flicks, which will reportedly be shot together à la The Lord of the Rings to keep the budget down. No word yet on whether Kirsten Dunst will be back as Mary Jane Watson.

The plot of the fourth installment is being closely guarded. Lindsay-Abaire will be the latest acclaimed writer to board the blockbuster franchise, following veteran screenwriter David Koepp (Jurassic Park), who wrote the first Spider-Man back in 2002; fellow Pulitzer Prize winner Michael Chabon, who helped craft the story and wrote an early draft of 2004's Spider-Man 2; and two-time Oscar winner Alvin Sargent (Ordinary People, Paper Moon), who wrote the final drafts for Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Man 3.

Rabbit Hole starred Cynthia Nixon and Tyne Daly and won four Tonys, including Best Play. Lindsay-Abaire is adapting a movie version, to star Nicole Kidman, and is also working on the book and lyrics for the upcoming Broadway musical Shrek.


Possible future looks/story lines?? EXCITING!!
