CBS finally gets it


Finally. CBS finally has stopped showing footage of Kevin Ware's injury. On Sunday Louisville basketball player Kevin Ware sustained a severe break in his leg. This gruesome image was captured in real-time by several networks. The stations seemed to exploit the images of the nationally televised incident, along with the pain that teammates and opposing teammates experienced.

Congrats to the New York Giants


I am a Native New Yorker. I was not born in NYC, however I grew up there. That is really home for me. So I was thrilled Sunday when THE GIANTS won the Superbowl. I must admit I have never, ever in my life watched the whole game, without getting up once. Since the commercials sucked I was able to enjoy the game more. Eli you rock !

Black Tennis Professionals

























Many of us know about Serena and Venus but thanks to Black Tennis Pro
I have learned so much about the world of tennis. I played a little when I was younger but didn't really have the correct teacher to appreciate the sport. So if you want to find out about people like Chanda Rubin, James Blake, Zina Garrison and more visit the sistah over at Black Tennis Pro, for the ultimate learning experience.

Marion Jones-700k Pay Back
























Marion might have to sell quite a few assets (if she has any left). She currently owes $700k in Pay back money. So not only does she have a two year ban imposed on her, she has to come up with $700 dollars, estimated as prize money to return to the IAAF (International Association of Athletics Federation). She had her Nike endorsements pulled awhile ago, so she might have to have a huge garage sale to try to recoup those funds.
