Retweet of the Day - April 2, 2013

Scott Boras is the super agent of Major League Baseball. He has represented, and made wealthy, many a superstar. So it made a splash when the news broke that New York Yankees All-Star second baseman Robinson Cano fired Boras and signed with Roc Nation Sports, owned by rap mogul Jay-Z.

Ryan Weiss (‏@RyanWeiss) suggests, in today's retweet, that Boras needs to keep up with the Joneses (or, in this case, the Carters).

The real question is not: "Why did Robinson Cano make Jay-Z his new agent?" but rather "When is Scott Boras dropping his new hip-hop album?"

I don't think so.

Reggie Bush is NOT Kunte Kinte

This is a stand-up triple for Jason Whitlock as, once again, I find myself either really agreeing or really disagreeing with him. (Click here to read Whitlock's article)

I only differ with him in that, Bush made it to the North. He posted a picture of his Super Bowl ring to his Facebook page and there are at least 130 "likes" and about 50 comments of encouragement. Who cares WHAT they do at USC?

They gave his Heisman back...so what? Reggie still shines up his Heisman when he gets home and if The Heisman trust has the gall to ask for the trophy back, to quote Tony Soprano, "You send a couple of guys to my house...see how that works out!"

At the end of the day, we all know who won the Heisman in 2005, we all know USC won the BCS in '04, Reggie has a REAL (not a mythical) championship ring, he's rich, he's got paid in college, he's going to continue to get paid, and the only party suffering, at any tangible level, is USC with its bowl ban and lost scholarships.

So, no, Reggie is not Kunte Kinte. He's the one that got away!
