*SeVen JaMs of the wEEk*

1. "Amazing" - Kanye West ft. Young Jeezy - 

2. "MVP" - Ludacris - This track is off of his new album Theatre of the Mind. It is real, real cool. And it is totally Ludacris, the punch line filled Luda. 

3. "Dreamer" - K'naan - A fresh sound and cool beat mixed with meaningful lyrics... can not ask for much more. 

4. "Robocop" - Kanye West - This track on the album is different than the leaked one, and is just too cool not to like. 

5. "My Kinda Country" - Randy Houser - The music and his voice create a real country sound. This song is just proof he knows what he is doing. 

6. "I'm Yours" - Jason Mraz - So I may be a little late on this song (maybe like six months), but I can stop listening to this song. It is a definite laid back, cool track. 

7. "So Fly" - Slim ft. Yung Joc - Plain and simple just a cool R&B track. 

Also receiving votes: "Anything Goes" - Randy Houser     "See You In My Nightmares" - Kanye West ft. Lil Wayne      "I Can't Outrun You" - Trace Adkins     "ABC's" K'Naan ft. Chubb Rock

COLLER TALK - BCS Sound Off

BCS SYSTEM

With just two weeks left in the college football season, people are again moaning and complaining about the BCS system. First of all, please forget the fact that Barack Obama wants a playoff system too... he has a few other things to worry about right now. 

I know people may be a little sour after Oklahoma took Texas Tech behind the woodshed and smeared the Red Raiders, but it happened. The Sooners victory was HUGE. With the big win they leap frogged Texas and now hold onto the golden key. Your going to have to get over it. I promise there are still some games left with BCS Championship implications. 

   - In the SEC, Florida at Florida State and Alabama at Auburn. And then the Gators and Tide must play each other in the SEC Championship game.  

   - In the Big XII, Texas must play Texas A&M on Thanksgiving evening (before you hate just know A&M has beat the Longhorns that last two times they have played), and Oklahoma must play in state rival Oklahoma State. 

Hate on the BCS all you want. I am pretty sick of it myself, but before the BCS system gets fixed, can they please start erasing some of the bowl games? There are 119 teams who are eligible to play in bowls and 34 bowl games. Meaning 68 teams, 54% of the 119 teams, make a bowl game. Bowl games used to mean more. You had to be a top team in the land. So start cutting down on the number of bowl games. Then let's work on figuring out how the Division II and III playoff systems can work, without losing the traditional bowls - Rose, Fiesta, Cotton, Orange, and Sugar. 

As of now, the BCS rankings look like this: #1 - Alabama  #2 - Texas  #3 - Oklahoma  #4 - Florida  #5 USC

*NEW CD REVIEW*

KANYE WEST - 808's & Heartbreak's

There is no easy way to breakdown the newest Kanye West CD. It is not hip-hop. It is not rock. It is not pop or techno. Mr. West somehow found a way to create a middle ground, but yet was still able to distinguish himself and find a new sound. There is NO mold for this album. There is no way this can be duplicated, replicated, imitated or done better. Simply Mr. West is in a league of his own. I applaud him because I think this CD breaks ground on a whole new sound and style people were previously afraid to try. Don't get me wrong, this is not my favorite Kanye West album, but it is so different and so far out there that he deserves some love and respect for the outcome. If I had to say something bad about the album... iI just felt that there was too much of a negative tone and feeling. The CD is obviously all about heartbreak and losing his mother. I just hope someone is looking after Kanye because the man sounds depressed. Seriously depressed. Mr. West might just need a hug.

WEEK 12 FANTASY FOOTBALL

Pocket Aces & Team Jokers

Ace**** -- Matt Forte. Come on, the  Bears take on the RAMS. I don't think I have to really explain this one too much. Just know Forte is due for a big game running and receiving. 

Ace** -- Roddy White is just one of those receivers in the league who is constantly doing something special for his team. He has found a good friend in Matt Ryan, and even though they are playing a very tough Panthers defense, watch for White to have a big day. 

Ace**** -- Marion Barber against the 49ers and Marshawn Lynch versus the Chiefs.  Just like Lays potato chips, I couldn't pick just one.  I mean come on, both are the core of the team to me and with other big names on the team not at their best... these two should be workhorses all day long. 

Joker -- Donovan McNabb only because of his comments last weekend following a tie with the Bengals. He supposedly didn't know that it could happen... well Donovan I hope you KNOW what the Ravens defense can do, because it might be a long day (especially coming off of last weekends smearing by the Giants).

WEEK 11 FANTASY FOOTBALL

Pocket Aces & Jokers

Ace**** -- Matt Ryan has been unbelievable this season for the Falcons. No one could have imagined how good he was going to be in his first year with a team that is rebuilding ALL parts of the team. Ryan against an awful Broncos defense equals a big, big day for Matty Ice.

Ace**** -- The Dolphins welcome in the Raiders to Miami... you know what that means? I do. The Dolphins will run the ball 35-40 times, which means if you have Ricky Williams or Ronnie Brown... start them - start them - start them. Nothing more to say, both will have big days.

Ace*** -- DeAngelo Williams was challenged by the organization when they drafted Jonathan Stewart. Well both have flourished this season helping turn around the Panthers in the NFC South. Oh and Williams and Stewart (if he plays) are going against the Lions who are still without a win. Expect big games and lots of touchdowns from them. 

Ace** -- Following the on the field blow-up with Interim Head Coach Mike Singletary, Vernon Davis has played hard and well. I think going up against a team like St. Louis (2-7) I expect to see Davis have another solid game. 

Joker -- Sorry to you Lions fans out there you might think they are a target this week, but the Lions secondary is to put in nicely... HORRIBLE. Look for them to get shredded by Delhomme, who wants to bounce back from a 4 interception last week. 

Tomorrow is NOVEMBER 4th. The day this country has been waiting for, for a long time now. I am not a political expert, but I have already voted, because I want to make sure my voice is part of the decision. So please go out and do your American duty but VOTING. It is painless and should not take you too long. Think about this, last time America voted just 537 names made the difference.
