Sunday Sundown Rundown

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 1/26/14

3 Up

1. Carmelo Anthony 62 Point Game - One of the best Knicks game I've ever seen. Melo was just in one of those zones where everything was going right. It was great to see history, and also to have the MSG building record belong to a Knick once again.

2. Richard Sherman Aftermath - After several overreaction from many (Richard Sherman Interview Proved We Are Classless), Sherman responded perfectly with several interviews where he came off forgiving, articulate, poised, and most of all, truthful.

3. Bill Cosby Returning to TV - The Cosby Show is my favorite TV show of all-time. The idea that Bill Cosby is currently in the works of producing another show is pretty exciting stuff.

3 Down

1. Justin Beiber - This kid is such a moron. I truly hope they throw the book at him.

1a. Justin Beiber Adult Entourage Members - If Beiber isn't a wreck, how sad is it to think there are grown adults in his entourage who protect and encourage his behavior? Especially his father. Good grief.

2. Frat Racist MLK Party - This is just disgusting. Those who had anything to do with this party should be ashamed of themselves.

3. Northeast Cold Weather - Where is spring?!!! This extremely cold weather and snow MUST stop.

3 Up 1. NY Times Investigative Series on Haiti - The history of Haiti is such a complex (and unfortunate) one. Really, it's a story that goes untold, specifically for the context of how the country is viewed. From being forced to pay operations to enslavers (yeah, you read that right), to so many other historical setbacks - including American interventions - the nation's history is so well laid out in this latest NY Times piece. I urge you to give it a read. 2. Equal Pay for US Women's Soccer Team - Kudos to US Soccer on coming around to giving the USWNT their due - equal pay for prize money from the World Cup. It's a start, and more importantly, it's a push forward for women's sports that do in fact push the needle in comparison, or more so, to their male counterparts. 3. Kate McKinnon - Random "UP" here, but I'm doing it anyway...A few SNL usuals are rumored to be walking away, including Kate McKinnon. The show obviously doesn't carry the

3 Up 1. Mother's Day - It's a day for mothers everywhere, and really, since becoming a dad, I've advocated that it should be an entire weekend. But ah well - Happy Mother's Day to all of the moms out there - past, present, and subbing in. And of course, Thank You! 2. NHL Playoffs - I've really gotten into hockey over the past two weeks, especially, the Rangers/Penguins series. Honestly, in my opinion, the Turner deal might just be the best thing the NHL has ever done. From the production to the in-studio crew, the product is immensely better - and easier to locate. 3. Pusha T - After over 20 years in the industry, rapper Pusha T finally landed a number 1 album with It's Almost Dry . Following a well-publicized battle with Drake, one in which he outed the mega-star for hiding his son (or you know, it was Drake just hiding the world from his son, yada yada), Pusha follows it up with a solid album, one that is a favorite of mine thus far in 2022. Kudos to Pusha.

3 Up 1. California Church Heroes - It's soooooooo weird that the top spot is a result of something so horrific as our ongoing domestic terrorism problem of mass shootings. Still, the courage shown by the five members who stopped the shooter deserves it. Those individuals tackled the shooter and tied him up with an electric cord, while wounded. It's so tough to fathom that those possibilities are within the realm of your Sunday worship, within the sanctity of your church. But such is America... 2. Olivia Rodrigo & Drake - Rodrigo continues to reap rewards on an excellent album in 2021 as she topped the Billboard Music Awards with seven awards. There was also Drake who I'm beginning to sense we won't really appreciate his body of work until he's near the end of his career. But yeah, Drake poured in a few more for the legacy debates and discussions.
