Afrocentric names, turkey bowl, fantasy football, and Ally, featurin Ashanti (really this time)
Press Release
Most Popular Baby Names For Each Race for 2002 have been released
The Top Three Girl Names, you guess the race
1)Emily
2)Madison
3)Hannah
The other race
1)Kayla
2)Aaliyah
3)Ashanti
It's a tough one I know, but now everything truly will feature Ashanti, its sorta like naming a white girl Madonna, it just doesn't happen, and NO that is not a comparison between featurin Ashanti and Madonna
And yes, Aaliyah lives!
Some other names of interest worth discussing
#4 for african girls was destiny, I guess if your last name is Child what else could you possibly go with for the first name
#8 and #9 for afro girls are Aniyah and Imani, Ok those aren't even names
The entire list contains the letter y in it 7 times
For white girls, the letter y is only featured once
For white guys Nicholas makes an appearance at #4, and the J's clean up, taking home 4 top 10's with Jacob leading the way at #1 overall and Joseph, Joshua, and John rounding out the rest of the pack
I swear I am not making this up, the #1 Most Popular Baby Names for African Males in 2002 is......
Nasir
yes, that Nasir
This may cause some confusion if a black were to get pulled over by a cop
Cop- Nasir, where you speeding?
Nasir- Naw sir

The J's were a big hit with the afro community as well, with Joshua, James, and Jordan landing in the top 10, incredibly Michael makes both lists and both times at #2, only the blacks is spelled differently, michayl
Ok I made that up
The rest of the list looks kind of like an old testament bible verse, with names like Isaiah at #3 followed by Elijah and my favorite and yours, Amir

So you thought you were starting your life off handicapped by being black? Well it only gets worse if your momma (whose probably named Jada or Aniyah) gives you an afrocentric name. According to studies Afrocentric names often incur a bias when it comes to employers discriminating against applicants, they usually dismiss any application that begins with a name starting with 2 a's (aaliyah) or containing any Y's.

Ally Hilfiger
My ban on MTV was forced to come to a halt after I received a call from my cousin vinny informing me of a program on MTV that featured a girl with the personality of J-ride, I immediately tuned in and have been transfixed every since. I stared at the screen for 26 straight minutes watching Rich Girls on MTV. The whole concept of the show is retarded and the other supposed reality stars are lame (her friend jamie is a damn whale) but Ally carrys the show herself, something about that look and her spoiled nature. Its a highly recommended view and remains the ONLY show I can stand to watch on MTV, which I plan on taking to court for false advertising because THERE IS NO MUSIC IN MUSIC TELEVISION!, but thats another post another day. Apparently others have picked up on the spoiled rotten good looking Ally, as TinoMartino has featured her name in previous away messages and my cousin vinny continues to watch religiously. Just something bout Ally....

Daily Recap featuring the Western School Tour
So I finally make my way down to the Western School of Health and Business Careers dahntahn to visit J-ride, and everything was as told, with the cafeteria/locker room/student lounge/library smelling just like burnt pierogies and the basement is sooo hot theres more degrees down there than the entire school offers...after meeting all of j-rides school mates we stopped by Monte Cello's to see my uncles and score some free pizza, then npoc got reacquainted with all the dahntahn homeless people who he hasn't seen in a year, I miss Picksburg, stop at PNC Park and Heinz Field for some business matters then my first ever trip to Aldi, it is an experience in there, all these stingy old people tryin to save a damn penny, and then theres me and J-ride, who was appalled at the fact that you had to buy your own bag....after leafing through some bruised cucumbers and brown iceburg lettuce we escaped Aldi alive

WVU Athletics
If we can beat Temple this saturday we are going to a New Years Day Bowl game, a dream of mine for the longest time, if Miami beats Pitt at night it will be the Gator Bowl, but if Pitt beats Miami we turn it over to the computers where WVU has to be within 5 spots of Pitt to get the BCS bid, and yesterdays BCS rankings read pitt #25 and wvu #30, so if those standings stay the same WVU is in the Orange Bowl, but if not, the worst we can do with a win against Temple is the Gator Bowl on New Years Day...Thank god for Boston College beating VTech, if the Gator Bowl theory comes to pass it will be a rematch with Maryland who crushed us 34-7 in our last meeting but that was clearly a different WVU team...so we are all cheering for Pitt on Saturday Night because Pitt and WVU splitting the Big East Championship on the year that Miami, Vtech, and Boston College defect to the ACC would be huge beyond belief
The mens basketball season started last night, WVU crushed James Madison with Picksburg kid Drew Schfino scoring 27 points, WVU womens basketball is 2-0 if anyone gives a shit about that

Turkey Bowl
The anticipation continues to build and trash talking is at full peak
Gametime has been set for 9:30 with the winning point total set at 13
Weather conditions for kickoff are being forecasted at 43 degrees at kickoff with southeasterly winds starting at 6mph and progressing to 9mph making the windchill 39 degrees
Field condtions appear to be frozen, frozen solid
A pre-game walk through will take place tomorrow night on Anderson Field to establish footing and scan the surface...a new MVP award has been created, its the Wicked Wiquor basket, it will be awarded following the game, voted on by all the players and fans in attendance, also a videographer has been hired to capture the game to be rebroadcast to a national audience

Fantasy Football
I have tweaked the BCS computer rankings and came out with a pretty accurate formula that just by chance shot me up to #2 after a huge win over robo, the scoring system is like golf the lower the score the better off you are, right now nobody can touch medford, he's running away with the league
