Cruz Sherman: Posted on Wednesday, September 26, 2012 8:19 AM
Unless you have been up under a rock or you really hate football; there has been an abundance of dismay with temporary referees. Even President Obama has indicated that something needs to be done. But here is a question, is it fair to those guys who have been tossed into this high pressure arena? Who is really the blame...the NFL Commissioner, the regular NFL Refs? What if the temporary referees say that they have had enough of the abuse and harsh critical remarks. Where we as NFL fans be now. Hell in the Dallas/Tampa Bay game Sunday; the ref threw his cap, which caused a Dallas player to lose his footing and a possible chance for a touchdown. If Dallas hadn't won; I guess I would be as mad as hell like Green Bay and New England fans. What we have here is a situation that is ugly and the guys who are stepping into the middle of hell are not getting any credit for keeping the NFL games going. Yes, they have screwed up on some major calls...they have made the game ugly with certain calls or non-calls...but what the f**k; would you rather have some football or no football? What is your answer to my question? Below is an article iafrica.com American football fans were in an uproar Tuesday over a labor dispute that has seen replacement referees botch calls and sow heartache among millions of followers of the most popular US sport.
The National Football League (NFL) last year survived a players' lock-out that threatened to shut down the entire season.
But sports analysts are warning that the game could be in even greater jeopardy this year after a profusion of uncalled penalties and blown calls by the temporary referees officiating for the 32-team league.
The lockout of veteran referees threatens to "irreparably damage" the game, warned sports columnist Bill Plaschke of the Los Angeles Times, who urged NFL owners to give in to demands from the striking referees for a pay increase.
Life in much of America comes to a standstill every Sunday as the country focuses on the exploits of the helmeted, armor-clad gladiators of the bruising sport.
Just three weeks into the 16-game NFL regular season, no one expected such widespread national despair over the absence of the veteran officials.
Since NFL owners shut the referees out and hired less experienced temporary officials, the quality of play has eroded in the eyes of most football fans.

The Observer: Posted on Tuesday, July 12, 2011 10:36 AM
It was no surprise to this observer that Flocka wants to leave the industry. It is hard to pretend or be fake when you are real person and use to real people. It's all about grand-standing and pretentious ass people, who seldom care about the people who help them to acquire their fame and riches. The fan, the movie goers and watchers, the concert goer, etc... These arrogant people make millions and we feed their egos; while they could care less. Those pompous pirates, whine and bitch if their sparkling waters aren't the correct temperature...what the hell were you drinking before the fame...tab water...damn it!! Have we all lost our damn minds, people get a few thousand followers on Twitter and become apart of certain so-called elite groups and they have an air that their shit don't stink...news flash, it does! In the streets if you don't like someone, you don't like them; both parties know what time it is. You sincerely like someone, you have their backs. In the industry, you only as good a your last favor for someone or if you can assist them to get to the top. After that you are "a non-factor". There more I can say and will say later, but for now, Flocka...I salute your non-talking ass...real talk; at least you are trying to keep it real...so homie go back to the streets...smoke some more weed, drink a forty, have 100 babies and be with your real niggas...dueces! Next time, I will go in on those parents in the industry who want to be managers; but are stumbling-blocks for their child(ren) success. |

Recently Stanley appeared on the HBO special "Pay To Play". McClover outed Auburn, LSU and Ohio State, by claiming that the schools while trying to recruit him in high school, paid him bags of cash, a car and sexual favors!!! Since McClover exposed those schools, he has received hate tweets, vicious comments after each radio and television interview!! You will be able to join the discussion. This is a special program entitled "Athletes For Auction, The Stanley McClover Story". Log in at www.blogtalkradio.com/cruz102_8 or call 323-693-3317 1.We want to know; should athletes get paid while in college, especially since the coaches and schools are making millions?? 2.

Cruz, CEO: Posted on Sunday, March 27, 2011 5:18 PM
Charles Barkley just said it best on the half-time show on CBS. Charles said, "VCU can tell everybody to shut the hell up". On Twitter before VCU made it to the Sweet 16, I sent Magic Johnson a tweet and stated, "if VCU plays their game, they can compete and win against any team in the tournament". Of course the great Magic Johnson didn't respond. Although he tweeted that he was surprise that VCU was winning. Well to Dick Vitale and all of the other pros, the one thing that you didn't factor in is....the ball is roll and the basket is the same for all teams; if you execute your game plan you can beat any team. Obviously Coach Smart is smart, VCU is doing just that, executing their game plan and playing like a team who deserves to be in the Final Four!!!! CONGRATS TO THE RAMS!!!! |

Voice of Reason: Posted on Wednesday, February 23, 2011 4:24 PM
Is Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh the next target of VH1’s Bitter Basketball Wives? Maybe. Royce Reed, the mother of Dwight Howard’s son, is possibly being replaced by Allison Mathis, the ex-girlfriend of Chris Bosh according to online reports. “Season 1 we establish [Royce] as Dwight Howard’sex-girlfriend and mother of his son. Season 2, she’s now dating again, or dating other people that she seems to be pretty serious with,” O’Neal told the Times in a phone interview. “And she can’t talk about her son, she can’t talk about Dwight, and it’s no connection any more, and the legal part of it has almost gotten more strict.” The key word with Basketball Wives seems to be “former” or “ex.” It is absolutely dumbfounding that Basketball Wives is expected to film a third season with little to no relevant content to its title. Well, don't believe everything you hear or read...Royce would be crazy to leave on her own. Without Basketball wives, she would go back to her obsure life. By continuning on the show the little spoiled, no talent, trouble-maker would help her to from falling in the "Abyss". Finally, if she didn't have a baby by Dwight Howard and if he wasn't an NBA superstar, who would care? Be honest no one!!! |
