E3 2013 AKA NERD FEST

E3 - 2013

OK, we have a little nerd in us, we admit. This is one of our favorite times of the year. This year’s E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo) trade fair is more than just the biggest gaming event in the calendar.

Allen Iverson

Apparently, the “answer” to a court ruling in February where a judge ordered former NBA superstar, Allen Iverson, to fork over $8,000.00 a month in child support is a resounding no!

Forgive her if she doesn’t keep her hairdresser appointments or pamper herself, the girl is busy! This…

Tek Yuh Time and Hush-Puppies

Take yuh Time hush puppies

So to be honest, when my editor told me about the SCORCH Champions issue and gave me a deadline to hand it up, I was completely lost. Poor me, never watched one game in my life and asking her if this is like Wrestlemania or something. Well after she gave me a good blow out, I had to solicit some advice on these omnipotent teams. Wherever I went and asked, kill dem dead, everybody felt like their team was the best thing since Scorch Issue…
