Most rappers that are black can have an affected accent, but it would probably be considered still on the spectrum of codeswitching. You ain't about to see some hip hop artist from the Bronx trying to sound like he from New Orlean's, tho. He'd be laughed off a stage. Slick Rick was really from Great Britain. Shit,…

Yeah ... talent. If talent is all it takes then artists like Janelle Monae and Angel Haze would be in Igloo Australia's place.

I've only heard a quarter of one of her songs before I turned it off. (instead of throwing the speakers out the window) I'm fine with never hearing her ever again.

Another country heard from. A stupid, stupid fucking country.

Are you joking? You're joking. You're not joking?? You can't tell the difference between something Lynch is totally down with and chooses to do vs something that is mandated(and useless) which he doesn't want to do? The two instances are vastly different.

Can't wait for this to be used as proof that "See, he CAN talk to the media and has no reason not to do press conferences!"

Gronk and Beastmode

This needs to be a sitcom, or a reality show. Just have these two live together and be themselves. That was unexpectedly, extremely, funny.

Boston sports fans are as fairweather as it gets. I lived in Boston from 1990-1992 and I could count on 1 (maybe 2) hands the number of Pats fans I encountered. Sawks fans? Tons. Bruins fans? plenty. Celtics fans? There were many, but as the team went from Larry Bird and titles to Reggie Lewis & Dee Brown not winning…

Bill Simmons called. He wants his 900,000 word mostly unfunny column back.

Announcer: Marshawn, you just won the MVP, what are you going to do next?

+1

Isn't the MVP award voted upon by the media. I'm praying to God, Allah, Buddah, Moses, Joseph Smith, L. Ron Hubbard, etc etc etc.... Just so I can watch the ensuing clusterfuck that would happen!

Not to mention that while all women are required to cover their bodies, only Muslim women are required to cover their hair in Saudi Arabia. It's not at all uncommon for visiting foreign women to be in pants and leave their hair showing. Maybe some of the most conservative fundamentalists in rural areas would care, but…

ALSO THAT

I can't imagine that the Saudi elite was all that shocked by Michelle's hair or the handshake. They spend a considerable time out of the country - a lot of the upcoming generation of royals were educate in the US or Europe. Anyone who spends time in Switzerland knows that Geneva turns into a mini Saudi state in July…

I love this coat/jacket.

The fact that this bullshit"faux-scandal"is what is getting media attention, and not Saudi Arabia's horrific human rights record, is why I am so goddamn sick of DC. This is politics at its worst, where everyone KNOWS this is a non-issue, but its used to score cheap points. And in this case, both parties are…

Conservatives have no memory. They're like that guy from 'Memento'.

Oh, please - if Mrs. Obama had worn a scarf, FOX would have gone apeshit and called her a Muslim.
