This week we are doing something a little different. Jud suggested this one. Enjoy a different day of Floetry.
Floetry:
And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold November rain
Taken from November Rain by Guns N' Roses

Midweek in Review
Yes, I have been lazy. A special thanks goes out to Brownie for at least putting something up on Monday. I have been real busy signing free agents and coaches for Season 7 of my whatifsports.com Hardball Dynasty team and thus, trying to recreate some semblance of a farm system while hopefully improving the major league squad. The Rule 5 Draft is tonight so we shall see if I can pull a diamond in the rough out of it. Also, in my other league, my major league squad has come back from a three game deficit to lead the AL West by one game heading into the home stretch. In the same league, my rookie league team has made the playoffs as the #3 seed and marks my first foray into the playoffs.
In the NFL Playoffs, the Giants upset the Cowboys, the Chargers upset the Colts and both the Packers and Patriots held serve. This Sunday the Pats host the Chargers and the Pack host the G-Men in their respective championship games with the winners to play on February 3 in Arizona for the Super Bowl.
Other stuff happened as well. Hopefully I will have more to say tomorrow.

Politics x Rap
Another day, another story about politics and rap.
On Friday, along with Floetry, I dropped a link to an article about Senator Obama’s (you know, the guy running for President) interest in and opinion on hip-hop. Well, today I noticed another article touching on those subjects along with Hillary Clinton (you know, the lady running for President).
The article talks about the various theme songs or victory songs each candidate has used. A particularly interesting point made in the article is the song that the Obama campaign allegedly played at the Iowa victory party. Supposedly, Jay-Z’s 99 Problems played as Obama and his wife entered the party. Some people took part of that song as a dig at Clinton.
In 99 Problems, Jay-Z raps, “I got 99 problems, but a bitch ain’t one”.
The entire article, which includes both candidates recent song selections and musical opinions, can be found here.
