This may be a very old rant from a previous episode…but going into the final challenge I felt compelled to post this letter which has a lot of the bitter rage of Tre’s departure that let’s face it, most of us are still feeling. Thanks to the fan who wrote this.
Dear Tom, Padma, Fruit cake in the blazer,
Nice work sending home Tre last night. You just sent home the top competitor
on a show now left with miscreant premadonna hacks. He took over a restaurant were
no one wanted to cook apparently. CJ was too busy reminiscing about lost
times with his teste, Casey was still trying to dice onions in under an
hour and Brian, well he didn’t really mess anything up.
Meanwhile, Dale and his bald-hawk remain in the midst with his
greased crew of characters. Howie’s sucking on oysters and Fat
Joey is showing up anywhere that has free food. We remember you
crying you fat bastard.
How tuff was Tre when he left? I was waiting for him to kick open the door. The school of
hard knocks taught him well.
Finally! 12 years after the death of the show, The State is coming to dvd. It’s the best thing that ever aired on MTV, and right up there with Mr. Show and Upright Citizens Brigade as the best sketch comedy shows ever.
Ian Brown’s last nine sub-par solo records don’t compare to the Stone Roses debut or his work with UNKLE. But hey, who cares when you can hand out “California Smiles” with a genie on stage. Bite the curb, Ian will take care of your head with a trainer-stomp.
I am the lightning, I am theeee heat, I am the rainnnnnnnn.
It’s too bad sweet dudes like R. Blackman aren’t still playing for the 07′ Mavs sqaud.
Honestly, if it was 1984 again the looming NBA season would have you so stoked you’d be wearing a Suns pants suit, doing the shuttlerun all day in the gym.
People can be tricked into buying anything. You want proof? Two words: “50″ and “Cent”
Did you hear? Kanye West sold 200,000 more albums than 50 Cent. Now 50 has give Kanye a handjob like he promised….
….oh yeah and even better he will stop making “albums”. Why does this matter you ask? It matters because 50 Cent is the worst rapper of all time.
Case in point: Somebody forgot to tell him that you can’t rhyme a word with itself.
“I don’t know what you heard about me
But a bitch can’t get a dollar out of me”
If so, then there is a word that rhymes with orange…. orange.
This show is too good.
Height 7′7″
The only player in NBA history to block more shots than points scored (1,599 points, 2,086 blocks)
Once blocked 4 shots in a single possesion
Beat up William “The Refrigerator” Perry in celebrity boxing
Ok, so he didn’t shoot 10 threes in one game as I previously claimed, but he did shoot 6 against the Suns (all in the second half)
Who is Justin Bobby? Truly
Maybe the best/worst/best again reality grease the world has ever known.
I found this great article on the logistics of the “after party” on this site called Modern Drunkard Magazine… so I wanted to siphon it… giving full credit of course to the author Frank Kelly Rich because I thought it was a brilliantly true tale of mpowerposse last weekend. However my degree in Journalism has taught me a thing or two about reposting things (even if you give credit where credits due) so …without further ado… I will give you the link!

Check it if you know what’s good for you.
The last track off Junior Boys’ lp So This is Goodbye ’FM’
sums it all up. Besides the brilliant closer, the record is much deserved of
it’s consistent spins over the past year. FM makes sense in 1,500 different ways.
Brian Wilson jamming with New Order on Absinthe. Go fuck yourself.
