Come On People - The Review  

I was a guest on the Black Women's Roundtable to participate in a audio review and discussion of Bill Cosby and Dr. Alvin F. Poussaint's book; Come On People, On the Path from Victims to Victors

The book is a great roadmap for black achievement. While the tone in the book has been muted probably in response of criticism that he was "beating up on poor folks", but the facts are the facts and they are not pretty. If you get beyond the grim numbers there are plentiful examples of people lifting themselves out of grim situations during "Call Outs" held across the nation.

This is a book that should be in other formats because the sad fact is that the folks that needed this important information will not get it. This is hopefully first in the series of books, DVDs, New Media Content that will reach the masses.

This is a book that I highly recommend.

Appear on 2 Guys & A Mic and do great things.  

We here at 2 Guys & Mic want to send our congratulations to Gina for not only kicking our collective butts the last couple of weeks in picking NFL games, but achieving a great honor in being named among Essence's 25 Most Influential People of 2007 in their December issue.

It is wonderful to get your roses while you can still smell them. Keep doing what you do.

Parker v. Smith  

If you missed ESPN's First Take this morning you missed a historic day. Rob Parker from the Detroit News and Stephen A. Smith debated the issue of race in the Barry Bonds indictment. It was historic in the fact that it was the first time you have two African Americans debating the issues on this show (my memory)

Those picks kinda sucked, except for Gina who kicked butt for the second week in a row. JD has been selected as the guest picker for the Detroit News NFL Picks, it's harder this time as I am selected against the spread. The picks will be in the Friday edition of the Detroit News.
