Who is number one now?

Who is number one now? I think that is what Lil' Wayne is saying. After reports that he has sold over 1 million albums in its first week! The first to do so since 50 Cent's the Massacarre in 2005,which had 3 number top ten singles on it. including a number one hit (candy shop). I would have to say that this would make Lil' Wayne number one right now. Sorry Kanye. The much anticipated album did work and i am curious to see the reaction from all the lil wayne haters.


In the sports world Team USA has decided to go small. As you may know they are choosing to bring Kobe, Lebron, Melo, D-Wade, Kidd, D-Howard, Paul, Bosh, Williams, Redd,and Carlos Boozer to Beijing. This left space for either Tayshaun Prince or Tyson Chandler. Coach K and Co. went with versitality reather than size. I think This could hurt them very much. Tyson Chandler would be great off the bench for defense rebounding, shot blocking and could also give them 5 fouls to use. Not having him makes the frontline even smaller and now has no depth. They plan to use Melo at power forward and Dwight Howard at the starting center but can this actually work? i think it can but i would feel a lot more comfortable knowing that if theres some foul trouble that we have some depth in size off the bench. However I think Tayshaun Prince will help a lot and im not hating on him. His long arms will bring great defense to the team and will be able to put hands in the face of the shooters from around the world. He can also hit the open jumper which will help spread out the d and make room for lebron and dwade to get in the paint and for chris paul to control the game with his passing. I will keep you updated on Team USA athis summer but all I know is that they better be bringing home the gold.
