I've been using xanga since 2004 when Matt introduced me to the world of blogging. I've changed names, had different accounts, and overall xanga's been good to me.

But everyone is gone now. Matt barely posts since his twitter has became his new blog. Everyone from my subscription list has stopped posting pretty much.

So that's it.

I've always ha d a blog over at LiveJournal that I duplicate posted on. I'll be there. http://bhyphen.livejournal.com. And apparently, xanga's editor won't display properly in Chrome which is super wack. Step your game up xanga or google!

I have a bunch of credits that I suppose I'll gift to Chiv for Premium. I really don't have much use for them since I won't need that lifetime premium I was going for.

I'm leaving everything up unless I find a way to mass delete all my entries. I may still use the photo service tho.

Goodbye xanga. It's been fun. But loneliness sucks.

Jets 13
Raiders 16

That's win number two! lol.

So this is a video that was made from a DJ battle held at Club Z a couple weeks ago. Around the 2:00 mark, my friend Johnathan McCumber aka Mischievious aka MI is drunk and starts dancing to "Dipset Anthem" as DJ Schemes spins it. And it's hilarious.

So after watching this several times, I get the idea to make an animated gif of it and use it for my avatar on wvrapscene and I post it on his facebook wall.

He's not too happy. I think it's flipping awesome.

Yeah so tonight I was scheduled to perform at 123 for the WVU Young Democrats show called Party For America. I'm super amped to be involved with something like this so I make my set about 50 some minutes and I'm all hyped up.

I get there about 9:10. Supposed to start at 9. First mistake (no black jokes either! lol). Cortez is there but he has to set up his tables. 9:20. The he spins some stuff to get in the groove of things. 9:25. I'm on.

This would have to be my worst performance in awhile. I just wasn't in the moment I suppose. I started with "PSA" but it was really too slow. "Best Fall Back" was better. "Death Before Dishonor Part 2" was good. "Come Out Swinging" was cool until Strizy messed up on the tables and threw me off and I did the third verse second and the second verse third. I skipped "Feelin' So Good". Mistake. "Gun To My Head" started out good but I messed up the second verse and we killed it. I never perform it. "Ain't Right" was okay except for me stumbling over the actual track so I could say my Obama line. Then I think "Demon In The Bottle" was next and that was so so. And then...my set was over so the next band could go on.

I squandered a great opportunity to get new fans since a lot of the people there weren't typical hip-hop fans. But I blew it. I blame myself for being late tho and for trying to do too much. I should have stuck with what I know.

As for "Swagger Like Us", I really like it but I don't think anyone else is too impressed with it. No one commented on it on lj or facebook. Chiv said he enjoyed it (which doesn't sound that great lol), E said it was okay and Johnathan said it was a good track. So I don't know. I'm about to put it on myspace and post it on wvrapscene and see what happens. But I'm getting the same feeling about "Swagger" as I had about "J's And Nikes". I really like it but I don't know if it'll make the final cut of the new mixtape. We'll see.

After 6 performed at midnight, the whole crew headed to Rain and Octane to see Moose and Sean respectively. MI dropped me off. Now here I am.

Angel will be here around 7 this evening with all her stuff from Keyser which means she'll finally be moved in! So that's one thing I can look forward to. I work all weekend tho and I'm probably gonna miss another Soundvizion video shoot tonight.

So yeah, I'm gonna twitter, check facebook, and go to bed. Until later.

EDIT: Myspace rejected my "Swagger" upload for copyright reasons! WTF?!

Even tho this was the Knicks team that was a constant thorn in my Bulls' side in the 90's, it's still the NBA that i grew up on. I'm currently ranting about ideas for similar shirts on twitter.

Sapp says Kiffin treated unfairly, blames Davis for Raiders' mess

How dysfunctional are the Oakland Raiders? So dysfunctional that Warren Sapp warns anybody who asks him about signing there to stay far away.

Nobody tells you how bad it is," the former defensive tackle said on Showtime's "Inside the NFL." " ... any person that calls me on the telephone, [I tell them] do not go anywhere near Oakland."

Sapp, who retired after the 2007 season -- his fourth with the Raiders -- said that Lane Kiffin, fired this week by owner Al Davis, never got a fair chance in Oakland.

"He came in there with a change of mentality. The whole system," Sapp said on "Inside the NFL." "He changed how the locker room looked because it was going to take that kind of overhaul for Oakland to become the proud franchise we all knew it was."

Sapp said Oakland won't change for the better until Davis doesn't own the team anymore.

"[Davis] is the common equation," Sapp said on "Inside the NFL." "You take him out, put him at home watching film or whatever he is doing -- you have a functioning football organization. But once he comes over the top, he goes and starts moving it around.

"Al Davis knows football -- it's just '60s and '70s football. That's what it is. He's thinking that Cliff Branch is outside and [Jim] Plunkett is dropping back and you can throw it 80 yards down the field -- deep ball, deep ball, deep ball."

Sapp even said that Davis would call in plays when Sapp was playing for the Raiders.

"I remember the first two weeks I was there, we played a preseason game. Somebody came up one time and said, 'We're going deep right here, dog.' I said, how do you know? He said, 'The phone just rang.'

"All the preparation that goes into a week of work is there, the practicing that you have to put in order to do these things, sometimes [Al Davis] messed with that part of it and that's what kills you," Sapp said on "Inside the NFL."
