This H.O.F. class was very exciting this year. You had Randy Moss, Ray Lewis, Brian Urlacher, Brian Dawkins, (what a class) Terrell Owens, Bobby Beathard, Robert Brazile, and Jerry Kramer. I didn’t watch the entire show, but I watched Brain, Randy, and Ray give their speeches. To me Brain Dawkins’ speech was the speech that hit home with me. He touched on points about not giving up when it gets tough, and use your haters and elevators. He spoke from the heart and his soul, and that was touching to me, B.D. was that hard hitting safety that players from the opposite team feared, hard nose and never quit on a play! I also saw Randy’s speech, Brain’s, and of course Ray’s too long for television speech. You know Ray is long winded anyway, he starts off calm, and then he gets going, sort of like your preacher at your local church. But he means well, Ray has been thru a lot, hell they all have been thru a lot. Every pro football player has a story to tell and most of the time; it’s a lesson learned story. I think Terrell will regret not going to Canton down the line, he missed out on so many memories, he could of made new friends, also he could of soaked up some much needed knowledge from the players that been there for a while. He would of cherished that time forever, but he wouldn’t be T.O. without a little bit of drama. (JNB18)

I haven’t chimed in on LeBron James and the I Promise School that opened a few weeks ago. Bron-Bron as I call him never seems to amaze me, how can you throw shade on this man. A school in his community for under privileged kids, and almost everything is FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is epic, he’s not the first to do so, but he has set the bar real high now. Free tuition, free uniforms, free transportation, free breakfast, free lunch, etc,etc,etc…….. this is a wonderful thing, people that HATE on this man is just unhappy with their own lives! And he’s in LA too, this is box office I tell you, just sit back and watch this superstar with the biggest heart in the game, bravo to the KING! Oh yeah, can’t believe I have to root for the Lakers this season, oh well. (JNB18)
I’m so excited for Beyonce, she had twins; she’s celebrity mom now. I know she already has a five year old, but now it’s so official. I just don’t agree with (Blue, Sir Carter, and Rumi) the kid names, but I like the name Rumi, that’s kind of hot. There celebrities you can’t expect the kids to have (Jane, Paul, or Mary) regular names, right? Beyonce has grew up right before our eyes, from Destiny’s Child, to Beyonce, to mother B. It’s been a wonderful thing watching her evolve in life, yes she stay winning!!!!!!! (JNB17)
By now you’ve heard that O.J. Simpson will be out in early October, this was the hottest topic last week, love him or hate him, he’s free. “The Trial of (1995) the Century” as they are calling it, back in the 90’s this story was on just about every channel. You couldn’t get away from it, it was impossible to. Even the NBA Finals were interrupted a few times as I recall. One only wonders what O.J. will be up to in the near future? Will he sit at home with his family? Or will he chase more stardom? I just think it’s ironic how the new Ford Bronco is came out and that was the vehicle that he was apprehended in way back, hmmmmmmm. (JNB17)
