Former Minnesota Timberwolf Eddie Griffin died last week when his SUV collided with a train. There was no identification in the truck and his body was so badly burned he had to be identified by dental records. Eddie ran into a gang of trouble in years past, ranging from being dropped from his team for failing drug tests, to crashing his car while, umm, pleasuring himself. Some suspect his driving into the oncoming train may have been suicide.

Mel B Says Stephen Belafonte is NOT an Abuser
In an interview in Hello magazine, Mel says she knows all about her husband's past and it's no big deal. She says, "I know everything that he's done. He went through group therapy and counseling, but he's fully aware of what he's done." She added that the media are "trying to make him out to be this aggressive, violent, woman batterer - and he's not".
And Baby Makes Three
Add another person to the list of kids fathered by James Brown. Last month twelve people took paternity tests to prove their lineage to James Brown and yesterday one more turned up positive. That makes three kids acknowledged by the James Brown estate after his death. No word yet on whether or not lil James Brown Jr., the child James allegedly fathered with his companion Tomi Rae Hynie, is James' kid.

Reality TV Star Tiffany "New York" Pollard Accused of Being Racist
Slow news day people. Bare with me. I have a really high trash meter but since I didn't have nothing to post all weekend, Miss New York makes the cut. Anyway, girlfriend went to dinner at some resturant in New York city this past weekend and her waitress accused her of being racist and a rude, nasty, pig. The waitress said, "I went to her table and told her I think she's so cute and funny. Then I went to shake her hand and she looked me up and down, laughed at me and said she had a cold. But immediately after, she shook the hand of another waitress, who is black." The waitress also said that New York refused to be served by them, because she said that someone always tries to drug her drinks when she's not looking, so New York would send her bodyguard to get her drinks. I know, so what, right? The first person who posts "Next!" is gonna get it!
Now What, Dummies?
Yeah so, you know how all Mike Vick's boys turned state's evidence against him in his federal dog fighting case in exchange for immunity and lighter sentences? Yeah well, AFTER they made all their damning testimonies, the state of Virginia says they’re going to file their OWN charges based on the Fed testimonies and will not grant the same immunities to the turn-coat defendants, so those fools are going to get jail time anyway. Suckkkkkers.

They Giving Away Tickets In Nashville?
You know I be lurking around on a gang of message boards right? Anyway, I read on this one board that Beyonce didn't sell out her Nashville show so the radio stations started giving away tickets and it went from tickets going to the "ninth caller" to the "next ten people" to call the station can get it. I also heard they was giving away tickets around the stadium. So if B don't sell out in your town, hang around outside. You might get lucky.

Lil Flip Cleared In Credit Card Scam
In July, Lil Flip got arrested for credit card fraud when an airline ticket was purchased in his name on an unauthorized American Express card. The charges have since been dropped. Apparently Flip thought the guy he trusted to purchase his ticket was a legitimate travel agent. Turns out he was just a dude with "the hook up."
