When Z comes back to Cleveland tomorrow, he's not sure what the reaction is, and i don't blame him. He left the Cavs this summer to join Lebron. After we lost to the Celtics in the playoffs he decided to leave. Some may say he betrayed us, but i believe its the other way around. The Cavs gave up on Z when we got Shaq. Z was put on the bench. Then, on the day Z was supposed to break the Cavs all time most games played, he wasn't played. Then we traded him, nd when he returned, he rotted on the bench. That's not a way to treat a team record setting center. What do u think?

Jordan VS Lebron
http://www.examiner.com/pop-culture-in-omaha/michael-jordan-responds-to-lebron-james-rise-commercial
Everyone has seen the Lebron James "Rise" commercial, where he attacks Cleveland fans and asks, what he should do. In the commercial he takes a stab at Charles Barkley, and even the great MJ. He says "Should i just sell shoes, shiny new shoes?" Refering to the the real king of the court. So, as we all know, MJ has the heart of a champion and will not lay down to a kid. In 2008, MJ had already made a video called "Maybe its my fault..." Recently the two commercials were combined as a true diss to the man who took his talents to south beach. Below are links to the original Jordan video and a cleveland response.

Everyone knows the story of Mike Vick. He used to play for the Atlanta Falcons, and was then arrested for dog fighting. When he was released form jail, he rejoined the NFL on the Philadelphia Eagles. He is now the starter and arguably the greatest quarterback in the league. Many people do not believe that he deserved a second chance, but you can not deny his greatness on the football field. 2 weeks ago, his jersey worn on his Monday night performance was enshrined in the pro football hall of fame. Vick Threw for over 320 yards, ran for 80, threw 4 TDs and ran for 2 TDs. No quarterback in the history of the NFL has done that. I believe in 2nd chances, do you think he deserved one?

Limewire replacement options
So many of us loved using limewire or frostwire, but unfortunately it was shut down. Well you can use torrents, which is still illegal, and you cant use them here. But, for new music you may not have ever heard, or you may not hear for a while, datpiff.com is a great website. It is basically a website with free mixtapes and if you make music you can put up some of yours as well. Its legal and you can download at school. All you have to do is sign up.
If you like Rap, here's a couple mixtapes from people i know, they are really good.

Hip Hop President
http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2010/11/03/131042868/the-release-of-rapper-lil-wayne-from-rikers-island-prison-thursday-has-former-president-bill-clinton-excited-for-the-young-rapper-to-get-on-with-his-life-the-topic-came-up-on-election-day-when-clinton-called-in-to-th?ft=1&f=1001
According to NPR Bill Clinton Is excited to see Lil Wayne go back to making music. He told NPR that his daughter got him into rap. I find this interesting because its not common that you see the president listening to rap. When you think of Bush, you definitely don't think of rap, you think of country. Its well known that Obama likes Jay-z , but still, its not everyday that a former president is excited that a rapper leaves jail.

NFL Concussion Dilemma
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5702673
Lately the NFL has had some major issues with concussions. This isn't the first time we've heard about this. In fact, last off-season the NFL worked hard on precautions to reduce concussions. Unfortunately, there have been 40 concussions so far this season. The plan is to now suspend players that cause malicious and devastating hits. The NFL has begun its new policy and has fined multiple players from last weeks head-hunting brigade. Many players have said, especially on the defensive side, that its just the way football is played and that you should expect to be injured. They are also saying that it should be renamed the NFFL (National Flag Football League) because of how soft the rules are forcing players to be. This could go either way, but ironically, these are the same players that are appose to a 18 game season, saying it would be to hard on the players physically. I'm having a hard time believing them, if injuries are part of the game, then play 2 more. They're really concerned that the number of games could increase, but their salary would stay the same, and in most cases for upcoming rookies, decrease.
Hitting Home:
James Harrison, from Kent State, who plays for the Steelers, knocked out two key players to the Browns offense; Josh Cribbs, and Mohamed Massaqiou. He led with his helmet on both plays but wasn't called for a penalty. Another thing to worry about as a browns fan, T.J. Ward, our hard hitting rookie safety, who has shined, may become a little less useful. Of course he's a great player and has come up hue for us before, but because he's a rookie, he may ease off his explosiveness. Because of the new suspension policy, he could be afraid to make a play, only because he lacks experience. As for Harrison, i hope he gets suspended next week, because you can be sure the refs will be looking for him.
