NFL to introduce kids early to tyrant Roger Goodell

Today it was announced that the NFL plans to simulcast one playoff game on Nickelodeon this season. The hope is to introduce a new generation to the sport in hopes to gain more viewership.

This is a fantastic idea because they can also get used to how awful of a commissioner Roger Goodell is. That way when they're older, they won't bitch and whine and moan about how shitty the league has become like I do every day of the week during the regular season. It's his own version of creating Hitler youths.

I mean, here's the latest example of mein chancellor being a total dick to league owners:

“As you know, we have been reviewing and addressing all aspects of our off-season operations, including the Draft, in light of current public health conditions. Earlier today, the CEC [NFL Management Council Executive Committee] discussed the issues relating to the Draft. The Committee was unanimous and unequivocal that the Draft should go forward as scheduled on April 23-25, 2020. ...
"I have personally discussed this matter with many other owners, club executives and coaches, and there is widespread support for the CEC's conclusion” to proceed with the draft as scheduled. ...
“The CEC was also clear, and I share the Committee’s view, that public discussion of issues relating to the Draft serves no useful purpose and is grounds for disciplinary action.” - Roger Goodell

Also, what other show are they screwing out of primetime? Spongebob? Avatar reruns? Is this somehow a ploy for Goodell to suck the life force out of children to make sure he's all-powerful and no one can oppose him in the future?


I'm not a hater, Goodell is just a dick.

The Cut: Donte Thomas can ease you back into the post Thanksgiving grind

Image
  I really fucking hate Mondays. I really really really fucking hate Mondays that follow a holiday. It's almost like I've completely rebooted and forgot how to do my job or function as well as I did before the holiday. Most of the time, the first day back is a wash and I mostly lurk on Twitter or Youtube while my boss isn't looking (luckily, we're working from home now so I don't have to try too hard.) Luckily, we have rappers like Donte Thomas to get our asses back on track.  Hailing from Portland, Thomas has been hustling for a minute and is even the founder of Produce Organics, an independent art collective music label.  Thomas specializes in smooth lo-fi boom bap that harkens back to the artists that established the genre in the 90's. But to compare Thomas to those before him would be lazy (I don't like comparing artists to other artists if you haven't noticed). This is not hype music, though Thomas has plenty of bars on hand, this is self reflexive ...

Jaden goes sneaker shopping with Complex

Image
  Jaden Smith has been an artist that took a SHIT ton of time for me to get into. I just didn't understand what he was going for. However, recently his music is all me and Zoe seem to play on long drives or when we're not doing anything. On Monday, Complex released a Sneaker Shopping episode with him and it was cool to learn more about who he is outside of the music. The 10 minute episode at Sole Stage covers a lot of things including his new balance balenciaga sneakers, his dad's legacy in sneakers and his effort helping homeless people on skid row get shoes. Check it out and let me know what you think, Lux

The Cut: Canadian rappers are invading our country and TOBi is leading the charge

Image
  This is the second Canadian I've featured on the blog, I'm sensing a trend. If I could best describe the type of music that will more than likely make it on to the blog, I can break it down into one word - Unique. If you looked that word up, a picture of Nigerian-Canadian rapper TOBi would be right next to the word and I think I'm underselling this dude's music. One song we get trumpets, an old school sample and west coast rhymes, the next we get stripped back drums with slick versatile lyrics. Favorite lyrics: Above - "You're well spoken for a black man, that's how you serve a compliment with your back hand." Below- "Proud boys make noise, lions roar to a cats meow, pound for pound in the ring I'm Pacquiao." Maybe I'm late on this one, I don't care he needs to be talked about more. His next album comes out Oct. 21 if you fuck with the music.  Let me know what y'all think. Lux
