Lupe Fiasco

Finally the release date is set. December 15th, 2009 We Are Lasers will hit stores and i won't play another artist on my ipod for probably 6 or 7 months like when the Cool came out. Lupe has released one single in two years leading me to believe that this will be the best album I've ever heard, no offense to Kanye's graduation, but that will now be in second place. I love Kanye but he's definitely a pop artist now and it will be soooooooooo..soooooooo good to get some really really deep music that I've missed for the past two years.

FNF UP!

Updated Heisman rankings after week 4

After Best's awful game against Oregon and Harris' less than stellar performance against VT, I had a 3 way tie for the top spot

1. Tim Tebow*-QB Florida, Colt McCoy-QB Texas, Tony Pike-QB Cincinnati
2. Jahvid Best-RB Cal
3. Case Keenum-QB Houston
4. Jimmy Clauson-QB Notre Dame

*Suffered a concussion last week in third quarter versus Kentucky

My NFL power rankings after week 3

1. New Orleans Saints (3-0)
Drew Brees has been amazing but they also showed they can win by running the ball and playing solid defense last weekend.

2. New York Jets (3-0)
Another win for the rookie head coach and rookie quarterback, they're undefeated and they haven't been playing cupcakes.

3. Baltimore Ravens (3-0)
Looked shaky in week one against the chiefs but have bounced back and have been putting up big numbers, and not just on defense.

4. New England Patriots (2-1)
People were saying it was the end of a dynasty, but they bounced back in a big way against super-bowl contender Atlanta.

 5. Atlanta Falcons (2-1)
Their offense is amazing when its working but they need to be more consistent if they want a legit shot to compete for the super-bowl.

6. New York Giants (3-0)
Their win over Tampa doesn't prove anything, bad competition so far leads to them being out of the top five.

7. Minnesota Vikings (3-0)
As much as it hurts me personally Favre has looked very good, however, that last play was very lucky, he plays his former team on Monday night next week.

8. Indianapolis Colts (3-0)
Two weeks ago they held the ball for 1/4 the time as Miami did and still won, this week Manning picked apart the defending NFC champs from start to finish.

9. San Diego Chargers (2-1)
LT being out hasnt hurt the team in a big way so far, we'll see what the rest of the season brings for LT and the Chargers.

10. Philadelphia Eagles (2-1)
Their only loss was to Drew Brees and the Saints, but it was a bad loss. Kolb has been solid replacing McNabb who may be back after the bye week. Also watch out for Mike Vick in the next game.

11.Cincinnati Bengals (2-1)
Should be 3-0 but a fluke play against Denver gave them a week one loss, but after a win at Pittsburgh last week Cincy may be back.

12. Green Bay Packers (2-1)
Everyone knows they're my favorite team so I'll keep it short, Rodgers looks good with little protection, however it was the Rams. This week they play Brett Favre on Monday night.

13. Pittsburgh Steelers (1-2)
Polamualu is out but that is no excuse for dropping touchdowns and missing field goals.

14. Denver Broncos (3-0)
Should be 2-1 but that fluke play versus Cincinnati makes them undefeated, interesting team after the offseason turmoil.

15. San Francisco 49'ers (2-1)
One first down away from being undefeated and making Minnesota 2-1. Frank Gore is out a few weeks, that could hurt this team in the short term but I think they'll win the division.

16. Dallas Cowboys (1-2)
Good win for the cowboys against Carolina, however that type of game won't beat any team ranked ahead of them.

17. Chicago Bears (2-1)
Cutler threw four interceptions against the Packers in week one but has bounced back.

18. Arizona Cardinals (1-2)
Kurt Warner looked awful against the Colts, part of it was protection. He can't move in the pocket, he's an old man now, they need better protection.

 19. Seattle Seahawks (1-2)
Jim Mora called out Olino Mare in a big way, and he's right, if they make those kicks they easily beat the Bears and are looking at 2-1.

 20. Tennessee Titans (0-3)
I don't know what is wrong with the team who boasted last years best regular season record. It's almost impossible to make the playoffs after starting 0-3, especially with Indy playing so good.

21. Houston Texans (1-2)
Great offense, horrible defense, if they can get their secondary going this is a sleeper team.

22. Carolina Panthers (0-3)
Another team who was one game from clinching home field advantage in the NFC last year is winless to start the 2009 season. Last night against the cowboys the offense looked great in the first half, but in the second half they went 5 possessions without a first down, not going to cut it.

23. Miami Dolphins (0-3)
The most surprising team from last year looks bad, and now with their best player out for the season, it may be a long year for the Dolphins.

24. Jacksonville Jaguars (1-2)
People are starting to call for Del Rio's head in Jacksonville, if he doesn't turn the season around this could be his last year.

25. Buffalo Bills (1-2)
Through 97% of week one people were saying Buffalo was the real deal, however they lost that game to New England, and they haven't looked good at all. TO had no catches last week, is this the end for Trent Edwards?

26. Oakland Raiders (1-2)
They chose Jamarcus Russel over Jeff Garcia, that move is not working so far.

27. Detroit Lions (1-2)
They won a game, and they looked good doing it, for once they are not the worst team in the NFL.

28. Washington Redskins (1-2)
They lost to Detroit, enough said.

29. Cleveland Browns (0-3)
Brady Quinn was benched last week, this team has nothing going for it at any position outside of kick returner.

30. St.Louis Rams (0-3)
They showed promise against Green Bay, but Bulger hurt his shoulder and Kyle Boller is not the answer.

31. Kansas City Chiefs (0-3)
Matt Cassel benefitted from throwing to Randy Moss and Wes Welker last year, no one of that caliber on this team.

32. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-3)
They're just flat out bad, benching the only player having a decent season isn't going to help them



Player of the week: Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco
Most impressive win: Has to be Lions over the Redskins
Game of the week: tie between Cincy-Pitt and Minnesota-San Fran
Worst Performance: Washington losing to Detroit

Predictions:
Week Four game of the week: Green Bay @ Minnesota on Monday Night Football
Player of the week: either Aaron Rodgers or Brett Favre, whoever ends up winning that game.

Mr. Hudson..White lies

Kanye's found another one, reminds me of Chris Martin

Heisman and Tebow bias

Tim Tebow	QB	Florida	Sr.	9	4	0	1	1	64
Jahvid Best	RB	Cal	Jr.	6	4	3	2	0	59
Colt McCoy	QB	Texas	Sr.	0	2	10	2	1	43
Jacory Harris	QB	Miami	So.	0	4	1	5	4	33
Case Keenum	QB	Houston	Jr.	0	0	0	3	2	8
Eric Berry	S	Tennessee	Jr.	0	1	0	0	2	6
Dez Bryant	WR	Oklahoma State	Jr.	0	0	0	2	1	5
Jimmy Clausen	QB	Notre Dame	Jr.	0	0	1	0	1	4
Tony Pike	QB	Cincinnati	Sr.	0	0	0	0	3	3

Please explain to me how Tim Tebow is ranked ahead of Jacory Harris and most of all Jahvid Best. Tebow hasn't done anything note worthy this year. Unless you count however the 5 touchdowns he threw against division two teams, or the fact that his team hasn't won any games of note. People will point to the Tennessee game as a great win for Florida but bottom line is, Tebow did not throw a touchdown and Florida beat Tennessee by 10 points when they were a 30 point favorite. Jahvid Best rushed for five touchdowns in one game, Jacory Harris beat two top 20 teams. They beat Florida State who just went into BCS buster BYU's home all the way across the country and won by 40. The bias behind Tebow and the Gators is unbelievable , the rankings should be..

1.Jahvid Best

2.Jacory Harris

3.Colt McCoy

4.Tim Tebow..maybe

Also what the hell is Jimmy Clauson doing anywhere near this list at all..are you kidding me ESPN? Let's go with the 2009 stats instead of bias formed from previous years. Tebow may end up having better stats that anyone (doubt it) but if he does and Florida goes undefeated then he deserves to win, but right now he has no business being ranked ahead of people who are just flat out playing better than him.
