A "Diplomatic Homecoming" ?..

After a highly publicized falling out, there just might be a Dip Set reconciling on the way. In a recent interview with MTV, Cam said it happened thru a phone call to Freekey Zeekey, that led to a brief chat with Jim Jones. "Everybody has been reaching out. I've been the one kinda saying Cam is going to take time do Cam,” he said. “But Hell Rell and J.R. [Writer] definitely been reaching out. I called Zeke's phone four or five days ago and Jim picked up [Zeke's phone]. Me and him spoke for about 10 or 15 minutes, but me and Zeke speak all the time. I haven't spoken to Juelz [Santana]." The former leader of the pack that dominated the mix tape scene in the early part of the new millenium described the conversation with Jones as “cordial” and hinted at a possible reunion of sorts sometime down the line. "It was cordial. He knew it was me," Cam'ron said of the convo. "He said we was gonna holla — maybe we'll put something together. But in the immediate future, I'm just doing Cam. But you never know what can happen down the line. I called Zeke's phone and I guess Zeke gave Jim the phone to holla at me. We just talked, asked about each other's family. He said he's on a promo tour. He'd be back soon. That was that." Though Cam’ron hasn’t ruled out an on stage reunion with his former crew, he also revealed that for the time being, he’s just doing him. "You never could say never. Right now, I'm kinda like in Cam zone. They been doing what they been doing for the past two or three years, but I'm kinda in Cam zone. But you never could say what could happen [in the future.] Right now I'm kinda in the Cam mind frame."

Don't Ever Walk To A Nuggets Game, Lol


A good Samaritan who helped push three people out of the path of a pickup truck before being struck and injured has gotten a strange reward for his good deed: A jaywalking ticket.
Family members said 58-year-old bus driver Jim Moffett and another man were helping two elderly women cross a busy Denver street in a snowstorm when he was hit Friday night.
Moffett suffered bleeding in the brain, broken bones, a dislocated shoulder and a possible ruptured spleen. He was in serious but stable condition Wednesday. The Colorado State Patrol issued the citation. Trooper Ryan Sullivan said that despite Moffett's intentions, jaywalking contributed to the accident. Moffett had been driving his bus when the two women got off. In the interest of safety, he got out and, together with another passenger, helped the ladies cross.
Moffett's stepson, Ken McDonald, said the driver of the pickup plowed into his stepfather, but not before Moffett pushed the two women out of the way. When he awoke in intensive care, he learned of the ticket. "His reaction was dazed and confused. I was a little angry," said McDonald.
The other man also was cited for jaywalking, while the pickup driver was cited with careless driving that led to injury. Sullivan said the two elderly women haven't been cited but the investigation is ongoing.

Even 'Prisons' Feel The Recession ?..

The head of the nation's largest sheriff's department is warning that nearly 4,000 jail inmates might be released early & about 600 deputy & professional positions could be eliminated to meet budget cuts. Owing to the economic crisis (aka the recession), the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department faces a $71 million cut to its $2.5 billion budget in the coming fiscal year. Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca told The Associated Press on Monday it looks as if he'll have to close two jails & eliminate the positions of the staff at those facilities. "There's no way around me cutting $71 million out of the budget that won't affect having to close a jail or two," Baca said. "I have to start cutting." Baca hasn't finalized plans, but said he was looking at closing two of the county's 10 jail facilities: the old central jail, which houses about 2,300 inmates; & part of another facility in Castaic in the north of the county that houses about 1,500 inmates. Violent offenders from the closed jails would be housed in other facilities.
Closing those facilities would eliminate positions for about 400 of the department's 10,000 deputies & another 200 or so civilian jobs would be lost too. The job cuts would come primarily through a hiring freeze.

The "Michael Vick" Comeback: Lookin' Good

Two teams with unsettled quarterback situations (the San Francisco 49ers and the Minnesota Vikings) might be interested in acquiring suspended Atlanta Falcons star Michael Vick. Vick is in federal prison on felony charges related to dogfighting and is scheduled to be released in July. The Falcons have said they will try to trade him, though they could cut him and make him a free agent. San Francisco coach Mike Singletary said Vick deserves the chance to play in the league, and believes he will be successful if he returns. He wouldn’t say if the 49ers would pursue him. “He’s still under contract, you can’t really talk to him or have any contact with him,” Singletary said. “Right now, we’re just going to look at the quarterbacks we have and go from there.” There might be questions about Vick’s sharpness and conditioning because he hasn’t played since 2006, but he’s a proven winner who led the Falcons to an NFC championship game and has been to three Pro Bowls. The dynamic athlete has the NFL single-season record for yards rushing by a quarterback with 1,039 in 2006, and is third all-time. He also has passed for 11,505 yards in six seasons, with 71 touchdowns and 52 interceptions.

Charles Barkley's Return to "Inside the NBA"

"NBA on TNT" analyst Charles Barkley, on leave since January after a drunken driving arrest in Arizona, returned tonight.
Turner Sports said Tuesday that Barkley would be in the studio for "Inside the NBA," which features Barkley as well as host Ernie Johnson and analyst Kevin Smith ... and indeed he was.
"From the beginning, Charles recognized that he used poor judgment. He took full responsibility and apologized for his actions", Turner Sports president David Levy said in a statement. "We look forward to having him back in the studio."
Barkley's leave of absence meant that he missed TNT's coverage of the NBA All-Star Game, where he would have had a key role. TNT averaged 6.8 million viewers for Sunday night's All-Star game, up 8% from the year before. Earlier this week, Barkley picked up another TV appearance with the announcement that The Golf Channel would have Barkley as a guest on its new reality series "The Haney Project." Barkley will get his golf swing analyzed by Hank Haney, a noted golf instructor.

For Those Who Know Their Black History:


Sam Wilson, better known as The Falcon, was the first African American comic book superhero in mainstream comics in Captain America #117 (September 1969). A native of Harlem, New York, Wilson was a community leader until losing both of his parents to street violence. After a brief stint as a criminal, a “Cosmic Cube” gave Wilson the ability to telepathically communicate with birds and see through their eyes, turning him into The Falcon. The Falcon works closely with Captain America and later became a member of the Avengers.

Fix That Face, Miss Carter



I'm not no multi-millionaire or nothing like that, but if MY girl had this look on her face during NBA All-Star Weekend, then I'd fly her ass back to Brooklyn, or wherever the hell she'd rather be. I mean, c'mon ... she got the"sour stomach face" on right there (smh) And I love Beyonce` but, what the hell was her problem?

This is OFF THE HOOK, Literally



A South Carolina sheriff said Monday he was not going to charge swimmer Michael Phelps after a photo of the 14-time gold medalist showed him smoking from a marijuana pipe. Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott said during a news conference that he didn’t have enough physical evidence to charge the swimmer, but he defended his investigation. “Michael Phelps is truly an American hero … but even with his star status, he is still obligated to obey the laws of our state,” Lott said. Damn, that's how easy it is for athletes, huh?
