The Best Rapper Alive

With the wind chill destroying my face I've decided to update despite the incredible amount of work I have to do this week.

The following I feel is sweet...

Lil Wayne openly suggesting that he is the best rapper alive. Since the best rapper retired of course. The more I think about it, the more I furrow my brow and slowly agree. For reasons I haven't come to terms with yet, whenever I'm at a party and Lil Wayne comes on, I turn to the first person I see and say as if I'm summarizing, "You know he's the best rapper alive." The beat and lyrics are the evidence and like a jury I merely deduce exactly what he's been saying. Jim and I had this conversation once. Stuntin Like My Daddy* was playing and we both actually took a moment to ourselves to confirm if we really did think he was the best rapper alive since Hova* and we agreed that he was. Not sold just yet? I present to you some of his artwork:

In Fireman Weezy Baby explains that his, "girls can't wear [those jeans]. Why? That's where [his] stash at." Keep that in mind ladies if you want to join Lil Wayne's posse - no low cut jeans. Later in the same song he notes that a girl is as "wet as a carpool" (More pool imagery later) and that he's "been handling the game so long [his] thumbs bruise." If I were a doctor I'd have to recommend to Lil Wayne that he loosen his grip on the game if he wants the swelling to go down.

Apparently Dwayne Michael Carter has been having issues with the nickname Weezy Baby. In Weezy Baby (featuring Nikki), Nikki lets people know that, "If you don't call him Weezy then you must say the baby. If you don't say the baby then just don't say it at all." My mistake Dwayne, it won't happen again.

In Bring it Back (featuring Mannie Fresh), Lil Wayne informs the listener that he, "don't need no pool, [he's] swimming in you." He also outrageously claims that he's in a "beamer eight hundred forty," which he of course follows with, "momma shake something for me." I had never heard of a BMW 840 and so naturally I thought it was fictitious - man was I out-classed. I'm sure he didn't mean to embarrass me though.

I've given you just a glimpse of the argument in favor of Weezy F. Baby's claim to being the best rapper alive. I learned the debate is certainly a hot-button issue at a highly offensive forum. I would prefer you don't read through it though as I am going to summarize the basic argument for you - I just felt the need to cite my sources.

You people need to give it a fu[my edit] rest,feeding into his bu!!sh!t.lil wayne ain't sh!t,and he definitely ain't the best rapper alive(jay ain't dead yet dumba$$e$).you people are freakin' idiots for liking this garbage.two reasons why i am justified for thinking this:one; lil' wayne substitutes quality for catchy a$$ lyrics and two;substitutes pure rhyming skill for million dollar beats

After sifting through that spectacular grammar and syntax I get the feeling Jay Bryd isn't buying what Lil Wayne is selling. I'll let SydVicious have the last word:

Jay byrd you a hatin ass [my edit]. If you dont like lil wayne why would your take ur time to listen to the best rapper alive. Last i checked jay retired. And nobody got that swagger like wayne. You see he really aint got that many features on the carter ii, cuz he dont need them hes the best rapper alive.

Good retort SydVicious. As the winner I can only hope you'll use your arguing skills to obtain some semblance of an education. And for the loser, Jay Bryd, hopefully you eventually learn to read.

I leave you with the image of Dwayne Carter the child. -->
Who would have thought this boy would grow up to become the best rapper alive. Since the best rapper retired of course.

I lied about SydVicious having the last word. I get the last word. Watch.



Ohio State. The Buckeyes shed the sad saga of Maurice Clarett and made the Fiesta Bowl to face a truly worrisome Florida group. For you Hopkins readers out

there, ask Adam why he fears #4.

Adam actually attended the biggest game in Buckeye history to date when they faced arch-rival and #2 ranked Michigan. Something tells me Adam actually supports this kind of behavior. I just realized this incident was before the game. If you haven't clicked on a link yet today, make sure you click on that one. All I'll say is that it's so Ohio State to scream their school name after a reporter just finishes a Bo Schembechler piece. I was torn between putting this section under lame but I decided the reporter makes it sweet. He keeps stunning composure and then reveals that he's already been having alot of trouble with Buckeye fans, "whose sobriety is highly questionable." I could post some pictures of Adam enjoying the victory responsibly, but I uh... well ya. I also noticed the second time around how pleasant looking the female newswoman is as well (holla).
