Commentary: Gilbert Arenas - The Everyday Idiot

Many say a picture is worth a thousand words, but in this case, this picture is worth Gilbert Arenas losing $147,200 per game and being suspended indefinitely without pay by the NBA.

Gilbert Arenas of our 'beloved' Washington Wizards was suspended indefinitely for his role in an incident with teammate, Javaris Crittenton, involving gunplay. At first, Gilbert claimed he brought the guns to the Verizon Center to keep them out of reach of his young children and he wanted arena personell to put them in a safe place for him. To us, that makes no sense, because anyone with a few dollars can go to Dick's Sporting Goods, Office Depot, Staples, someplace like that and buy a safe. He could have gone the easy route and just did that, but nope, he's trying to hide behind his child as his excuse for bringing the guns to the arena. Days later, the truth is starting to come out as to why he had the guns in his locker. Now he states he wanted to play a joke on a teammate. WTF! What is dude thinking? Who plays a joke with anyone with a guy, loaded or unloaded? Gilbert isn't in his right frame of mind. No one carries guns around and then pulls them out on someone as a joke. But to make the story even sweeter, it's being said that Crittenton did the same thing in retaliation. So not only do we have the 'star' of the basketball team walking around with guns like John Dillinger, but other dudes on the team are doing the same thing. SMH!! Come on millionaires, think.........think.

So more to this story unfolds over the next couple days where it would seem that Arenas and Crittenton had a beef over a high stakes card game that took place on the team plane. Gilbert lost and he had to pay up, but he allegedly didn't. We would now assume Crittenton, who makes around $15,000 per game, wants his money. Now lets do the math, Gilbert makes $147,200 per game, Crittenton makes around $15,000; with a difference of $132,200; "Gilbert, I want my money, and I want it now".

Gilbert is known for doing lots of charity work, working with inner city children, donating money, etc, so he says he has no reason not to pay up if he lost the game; but apparently so. Now none of us will know what was said to cause Gilbert to pull his toast on Crittenton, if that's what happened, but the story just keeps getting better. Apparently, Crittenton was seen walking around the locker room with his pistol, with one in the chamber, whistling. That shows that he's waiting for his opponent to show at the O.K. Coral. So no one knows what happens next, or at least no one will speak of it. We hear that there may be some video of the locker room incident and that the Wizards organization is eagerly willing to turn it over to authorities. I guess they trying to get his contract voided, so they can save money on the cap and get in the running for one of those big free agents this summer..........just a thought.

Many are wondering what's going to happen to Crittenton, and that he's such a small figure, that he could be cut without anyone even knowing or caring. But the mystery is, the authorities want to know if Crittenton really had a gun, because there has been no news on whether or not he even had one and the story of him patiently waiting to have a shootout are true. It's up in the air as to what's going to happen to him, but we don't think anyone really cares. But if the supposed video shows otherwise, he's going to have just as much heat as Gilbert has.

Now lets talk about the picture....Gilbert, Gilbert, Gilbert. What are you thinking, you idiot? You're already in trouble for bringing the guns to the arena. The organziation is pissed that you did so, and the authorities are trying to figure out what to do with you. If you just stop playing for one second, all could have been forgotten about; just like Delonte West. But nope, you had to show a sprinkle of retardation and jump around in the pregame huddle in Philadelphia, pretending to shoot at teammates. Not taking what's going on seriously, the picture shows that the teammates are having a grand ole time with Gilbert "The Town Jester", and now their asses are in trouble. And to top it all off, Gilbert says he feels that the heat on his isn't warranted because he feels that he did nothing wrong. He says that if he did something wrong, he'd apologize, but since he doesn't think he did anything wrong, there will be no apologies. SMH!! Dude, you're done, plain and simple. That's like slapping the Laws of the Land and the NBA in the face. Now you've tried their hand and made them act on you. What happened, took place two weeks prior and the league didn't do anything. They told the Wizards not to do anything and let the law handle it, because the law usually lets celebrities skate on something as "small" as this. Now you've spit in the wind and it's going to hit you dead in your face, and it's cold and windy outside playa.

Now Daniel Stern has finally spoken, Gilbert, you're "unfit to take an NBA court", go home, and we're not paying you. So wait for the law to come knocking on your door and haul your dumb ass to jail. Gilbert has shown several instances where he's just real stupid in the past, and many have written it off as quirkiness. All the jibber jabber in his blogs, talking crazy during interviews, etc was a sign. Now that quirkiness has manifested into something else in which he's now broken the law and most likely will be made an example of. We hate to see that type of stuff happen to anyone, but when you're being a dumb ass and you're rich at that; that's a bad mixture. The microscope is on him at all times because of the money he makes, so he has to be extra careful with what he does and says. I guess he didn't care, but what he doesn't care about, the law does, and for his stupidity, he's going to have to go through the system. Even if he walks out of this with probation, his ass should now learn to keep his mouth shut and do what he WAS paid to do, and that's play hoops.

Let this be a lesson to everyone that toting guns around for the hell of it isn't proving nothing. We recommend that if you got a problem with someone, be a man about it, and talk it out. No sense in someone getting in deep trouble for either killing another or getting caught doing something stupid; like carrying around guns. Gilbert's life was not in any danger, so there was no need to bring them to the arena. On top of that, he lied on his daughter as the reason why he did it; that's fucked up. And that means he's lied to authorities, which is also a negative. Boy, he's stacking them up; at least 4 possible felonies, lying to the police, gambling, I'm pretty sure they'll blame him for the possibility of the team being dismantled. Who knows, and we'll continue to monitor the situation. Plea bargain anyone?

Oh yeah, and Happy Birthday Gil. One word of advice to you, save your money.

DVD Review: On Location with Redd Foxx

Enough said, just look at who it is. How many of you can say that you've heard, better yet, seen a Redd Foxx stand up show? We know a lot of you kats never have, but here's your chance to hear and see a pioneer at his best.

This is one of the rarest shows that's available featuring Redd doing stand up. Some of you may have heard a few snippets of this show in a rap song or comedy documentary because this feature is probably his most popular. But the fact that it's available for you to review is what makes it special.

The show starts with Redd coming out and welcoming his all white audience. He makes light, no pun intended, that his audience is all white, so he'll make it real simple for everyone to understand his type of comedy. From the gate, Redd starts blazing cigarettes and putting down drinks. He's not finished with his first full joke before he's already burned up at least 3 jacks. He burns through an entire pack, a fresh pack of jacks, the entire 1 hour plus he's on stage. Now we see why his voice was so gravely.

Redd's jokes were quick and on point. He has some good one liners in there that may go over your head but if you run it back, you may get what he was saying. The entire show is not like that, he does tell stories throughout the show that are simply hilarious. The one story that stuck out is the story of the woman who paid a visit to her doctor with a hormone issue, and we'll leave it at that. You'll have to review the DVD for yourself to hear the rest.

As we stated, we enjoyed this old comedy from Redd Foxx and we wish for everyone to contact us for a chance to review it. It's some good classic stuff on there; the type of stuff your parents used to put you to bed early so they can listen to it theirselves. Now it's your turn to check out what made your folks laugh out loud in the middle of the night.

DVD Review: Janky Promoters

Ice Cube and Mike Epps have done it once again with their newest film, Janky Promoters. Don't think because the movie went straight to DVD means that the movie isn't any good; it just meant that the company that financed the film didn't have any money to market and promote it, so they took their chances on distributing it exclusively with Blockbuster and hope that DVD rental sales can offset some costs. But the movie really is good, so don't skip by it just because....

We start out with Russell Redds and Jellyroll running out of a club or venue, getting shot at by someone wearing corn chips and chucks, then it flashes back to how it all started. Russell and Jellyroll are partners, they promote shows in their hometown of Modesto County, California. Apparently, the two aren't that good at it because ticket sales for the upcoming Young Jeezy isn't doing too good. They claim Modesto is a 'walk up' town and ticket sales will pick up on the day of the event. They haven't paid for the venue, the talent, nothing; they don't have any money, period.

The day of the event, Jeezy comes to town and he wants his money up front. The two stall Jeezy to basically try to get him to perform for free but if that doesn't work out and the gate is short, hustle their way to having him perform for less cash. No one knows the plan but themselves, and when they involve the local drug dealer, an unproven local rapper, wedding money, alleged rape, and use a whole lot of front money on clothes and other material items, things really hit the fan.

We wouldn't say that these two are really janky (shady), but these two dudes just don't have the knowhow, or the clout to make a show happen, even with a headliner such as Young Jeezy coming to town. But when you start messing with people's money, you are going to have to answer a lot of questions and suffer the consequences. When getting involved in such a racquet, your hustle game better be tight and right. Neither Russell nor Jellyroll had the gift to get out of any situation and it was going to cost them their lives. Instead of being professional about everything, they played a lot and when people caught on, they couldn't do nothing but run. In the end, some of the important pieces fell in place for Russell and Jellyroll and all was forgiven, but in reality, most kats aren't so lucky.

To all the young inspiring hustlers out there, think things through first before acting on an impulse. Have backup plans for each one of your plans; make sure you don't screw anyone over in the process for your own personal gain, because the person you screw over today could be someone you depend on later. Imagine being in the shoes of Russell and Jellyroll, throwing wack concert after wack concert; not only you don't have respect for the game, no one will have respect for you as a promoter and as a person. All your street credibility will be gone and there won't be a snowball chance in hell you could ever make money trying to promote anything. Even with your name on a product could taint the efforts of a established promoter. So don't do it to yourself, and don't do it to others. Play the game straight and the game will be straight with you.

DVD Review: Drag Me To Hell

Seeing the trailer for Drag Me To Hell when it was first introduced back in the summer, it looked extremely interesting. We had no idea what it could have been about, except that some dude had a spirit coming out of his mouth and the name of the movie was very intriguing, Drag Me To Hell.

Now, the previews didn’t give too much information on the movie, and neither will we. But we will say that the movie is very entertaining with its special effects and storyline. There is a moral to this story as well, and that will be discussed at the end of this review. But the story of Christine Brown is an odd but sad one. She’s a loan officer in a bank and she wants the assistant manager position real bad. She has competition in a new hire, which the manager has high hopes for. The manager won’t give a decision on who’s he going to name as assistant manager and explains that the two are running neck and neck for the position. Every little thing and every big thing could determine if Christine gets the position she dreams about. The new hire, Stu, is a shifty eyed individual, who you can see, will do anything to undermine Christine and win that position.

When an old lady sits down with Christine and asks for a third extension on her home loan, Christine feels for her, but asks her manager for the extension. The manager doesn’t want to make that decision and leaves it up to Christine. Christine, thinking that denying the old lady an extension will get her in the good graces of her manager, tells the old lady the extension can’t happen and that she’ll be losing her house. The old lady flips out in the middle of the bank and is carried out by security. When Christine is in the garage about to go home, an altercation occurs which leaves her altered, mentally and spiritually.

As the movie progresses, Christine finds out through a seer, that she’s had a curse placed on her and in a matter of 3 days, a demon will come to claim her soul for his own. Now Christine must find the old lady, make amends and ask for the old lady’s forgiveness and to have the curse lifted. As the day turn to night and night to day, a shadowy figure abuse and torment Christine. Through various methods, including a séance, Christine tries to rid herself of the curse and this demon figure that has been tormenting her and will come to claim her soul in a matter of days. The seer then gives her a bit of advice that seemed so simple and could have been done in the very beginning to avoid the drama that her life has been enduring, but the seer wanted to help another medium rid the world of the demon that was unsuccessful 40 years prior.

Once all efforts seem successful, a mental mistake is made and not only does Christine still have to confront the demon that wants her soul, it’s a mistake that she’ll regret for the rest of her life.

The moral of this story is that one’s greed and desire can hurt other people and ultimately destroy oneself. Christine Brown had the opportunity afforded to her to save the old lady’s home and she sought that opportunity to advance her career by putting the old lady out on the street. Not knowing that her one little loan extension will not make or break the bank. She put herself first above someone who needed help and it eventually came back on her in the worst way. Not saying that eternal damnation is a punishment for such a selfish act, but you never know who you’re dealing with and what those people can do to you once you’ve wronged them. Selfishness and greed was Christine’s motivation and it was her downfall. The same thing happened to Tony Montana in the movie Scarface. He got greedy and made a mistake in poor judgment and he died for his selfish act. Remember to think of others first, even with the smallest of things, it’ll make you feel better. Don’t think that you have to be obligated to do anything for anyone, but do it out of the kindness of your heart. You’ll never know when you’ll rely on someone to do something for you, when you’re down and out.

DVD Review: Orphan

When Orphan first previewed, we at P³ Entertainment chalked it up as another Omen knockoff that no one wants to see. Well, there’s an old saying, “never judge a book by its cover”. That saying holds strong to what this movie was about. Yes, the movie is a bit cliché with the disturbed child that does “things” to hurt people, but the movie is entertaining and very surprising on its plot twist.

Orphan is about a married couple who wish to have a third child after the still born delivery a year earlier of their third child. The strain on the mother’s body would be too much for her to carry again, so the couple decides to adopt. They go the route of adopting an older child and after going to the orphanage to meet some potential children they could call their own, they are taken to a young, shy, talented, and very smart 9-year old girl named Esther. After spending several hours talking and getting to know Esther, the couple decides she’s the one they wish to take home.

Esther makes herself right at home by becoming a big sister to the youngest daughter (who’s deaf) and competition to the oldest son. She also gets very close to the father but has a problem with bonding with the mother. In school, Esther is teased about her mode of dress and she makes an enemy out of one little girl who repeatedly teases and torments her. Esther isn’t the type to get teased and tormented, so she finds the right time to let this little girl know she’s the wrong orphan to F with. What Esther does is nothing supernatural like Damien of The Omen, but does something common that kids do when they want get back on someone who’s done them wrong. The littlest sister sees this incident and doesn’t speak of it because Esther influences her that what she did wasn’t wrong and that she will accompany her at all times.

As the movies goes on, the mother becomes suspicious about Esther that bad things happen when she’s around. The mother contacts the orphanage and the nun agrees that in the past, Esther has had problems with socializing with other children in the orphanage and that some of the other homes Esther has lived in, bad things have happened, including the death of an entire family in a house fire. The mother begins to put the pieces of Esther’s puzzle together, but by this time, Esther has won the heart and mind of the father, controls the youngest daughter, and has a battle with the son, which puts him in the hospital. The mother wants Esther out of the house, but the father wants the mother out of the house and a divorce. At this point, we’re thinking, this dude is weak. He’s not even listening to his own wife and siding with a little girl who he knows nothing about and he’s not even being logical in his reasoning when his wife is trying to tell him there’s something wrong with Esther.

When it comes down to it, the mother finds out Esther’s secret. By this time, the mother has been committed for a psych evaluation and Esther is set out to complete her mission. The mother does everything in her power to save her family and Esther will see to it that she doesn’t.

The ending has a plot twist, of sorts, that took us by surprise. Everyone isn’t who they seem to be and raises our eyebrow on you knowing exactly who you deal with at all times. But the lesson to be learned from this movie is keep your eyes open at all times, and listen to your loved ones. When they are trying to tell you something, listen. It could be a matter of life or death.

DVD Review: Blood and Bone

Here’s another flick that you’ve probably seen advertised on television, once. Seeing the preview, we didn’t know what to think of it. It stars Michael Jai White, the black martial arts dude that played Spawn many, many, many years ago, Tyler Perry’s Why Did I Get Married?, Trois 2: Pandora’s Box, and a slew of other movies. You’ve seen him before. The movie also stars the sexy Nona Gaye, daughter of soul and R&B legend, Marvin Gaye; Eamonn Walker, who played Minister Said from the old HBO show Oz, and a few recognizable names and faces from the MMA world.

The movie starts out with Bone (Michael Jai White) in prison and talking to another inmate; then a group of other inmates surround him with the option of joining their group or suffer. Bone turns around and tells the group “they have until the count of 5”, and they all think he’s joking as he starts the countdown. When he gets to 3, he proceeds to mash the entire group and wants the group’s leader to deliver a message, “I want you to tell every motherfucka behind these walls, if they get the notion to fuck with me……….don’t”. Now that’s some go-hard shit.

Once Bone is released from prison, he finds a place to stay. He takes up with an old man and a woman who take in children to keep them safe from the streets. The woman lays down the rules of the house and he humbly obliges. As Bone stays in the house, he befriends the old man by playing chess with him and taking an interest in why the children are in the house to make the woman feel easy about him being in the house. Bone befriends a small Asian dude named Pinball after going to an underground Fight Club. Pinball is a promoter and Bone takes an interest in fighting under Pinball’s management for money. From this point, Bone’s mission is about to take place.

Introduced during the first pit-fight, we have the villain, James, played by Eamonn Walker. He’s a well-suited individual with a look in his eye of a man who gets what he wants when he wants it. There is a moment where Bone and James make eye contact where you know something is up between the two. James leaves the event to take care of some other business and Bone convinces Pinball to get him a fight with the last $200 in his pocket. Bone wins the fight in quick and impressive fashion and goes on to become the craze of the underground circuit after winning several fights over time. Word gets back to James and he has a proposition for Bone to fight for him. Bone tells James he’d think about fighting for him and from this point, Bone becomes his own man and James has a problem with that.

There is a reason why Bone and James’ lives become intertwined. It’s a deep story of a man who sets out for revenge for all the right reasons. Bone is a man who keeps his word to a friend and unites those lost in the storm with those who are looking for guidance. He doesn’t lose his cool throughout the movie, even in dire situations, which we find pretty funny, but that’s cool. The fight scenes are pretty good, and the final battle is pretty entertaining to watch. The storyline is pretty solid and not too predictable, so it’s a movie you can sit through and not get bored with it.
We recommend this film for those who are interested in martial arts movies with a pretty solid storyline, good fighting, and OK acting.

Commentary: Washington Redskins

Well, what can we say? The proof is now in the pudding that the Washington Redskins, our beloved Washington Redskins are officially one of the worst teams in the NFL. We're not saying they ARE the worst team in the league because they lost to the Detroit Lions, a team that hasn't won a game in 22 months, dating back to December 2007; we're saying they're the worst team in the league because they walk with an arrogance as though certain down-and-under teams are below them, then turn around and lose to them. Also, if you really pay close attention, many-a-good thing happens to other teams and players at the Washington Redskins expense. Bad teams beat us, individual players and teams have record breaking performances against us, just the league in general get their nut off on the Redskins. Look at highlight reels from ESPN or NFL Films, the Redskins are always on the receiving end of something negative to us and positive to someone else. We haven’t seen a Redskin yet do something big against some other team in the league yet, or at least in recent memory. And the players have the nerve to walk with swag?

The players on the team do not deserve to walk with the swag they think they can walk with because they are a bunch of overpaid, underachieving millionaires. Just because they have deep pockets don't translate into respect from the local community or on the football field. They need to win games. Just because they hustled Daniel Snyder doesn't mean they can sit back and relax, and play a little bit of football, knowing that a good portion of their contracts are guaranteed. That's the mentality these kats have on the Washington Redskins. Winning a championship isn't the first thing on their minds; nope, it's throwing an after-party someplace in the District, trying to become a local television celebrity by showing up in Eastern Motors commercials, or tricking their money off on some broad that's along for the ride. That's not swag at all. How about winning some football games and earning the respect of the fans and not getting laughed at by the entire NFL for losing to a team they should have crushed? Remember, according to Clinton Portis, the Washington Redskins are one of the most, if not, thee most talented team in the NFL........on paper. He got that right, on paper.

The team is littered with highly regarded athletes who are either living off past accomplishments on other teams, then got paid, or over the hill players, who can't stay healthy, and are now overpaid because their contracts drag out for so long, they can be "injured" for as long as they please and they still get paid without playing. Shawn Springs played the oft injured role to perfection here in Washington. We're surprised no one called him on the game he was playing. Every year he would come into training camp injured, sit out most of the season injured and only play in the big games like Dallas, Philadelphia, or when some high powered team comes into town like New England or Baltimore. It was like he was picking and choosing when he wanted to play and no one called him on it. Well Springs is water under the bridge now. He's gone and playing nice and healthy for New England, go figure. But he's the type of player this franchise has attracted or drafted since Daniel Snyder bought the team ten or so years ago. The team has some good names on paper, but when you get them on the field, it's a different story. It's been proven through history, having a "stacked squad" doesn't translate to winning anything. You may win a few games here and there, but when it all counts, that chemistry must work and this team has no chemistry.

The mad scientist, Daniel Snyder, is to blame. The issues of any franchise, whether it positive or negative, starts with ownership/upper management, all the way down to the equipment manager. This team has had no chemistry since Snyder took it over by trying to create a fantasy football team of big names and over-the-hill players, and signing them to huge contracts that they'd have to be completely brain dead not to sign. Over the years, Snyder has continued this trend until it's to the point he can't even spend money on free agents because all the money is locked up on players he's signed to high-end deals and they are totally ineffective. Either the player wasn't what the franchise thought he'd be, he took the money and sat on it, or he got traded away and the team still pays a good portion of the remaining contract, while that player is contributing with another team. Players around the league know, that if they want a big payday, sign with Washington. That's a known inside thing in the NFL. The owner of the Washington Redskins has a open wallet and if you have a decent season during the last year of your contract with another team, Snyder is going to come calling. And after making so many of these phone calls, the teams he's put together over the last few years are nothing but a motley crew of pieces that don't fit in the grand scheme of trying to maintain a winning franchise. On paper, it's supposed to work. They have players that other teams could use, but here in Washington, for whatever reason, those players don't work well together. The chemistry just isn't there or is it because the effort to win isn't displayed on the field?

What happened this past Sunday at Detroit was that the Washington Redskins gave up in the first half of the game. The swag they think they posses was all gone because they thought they were going into Detroit for an easy win. When they saw that they were going to, now gasp, play to win, their spirits were broken. The same thing happened to them last season when the 1-6 St. Louis Rams came into FedEx Field and won their second game of the season 8 games into the season against the 6-1 Washington Redskins. After that loss, several Redskin players admitted that they were over-confident and overlooked the Rams; and said it with a smile on their faces. How can you overlook any team in the NFL, let alone, any sport? You still need to suit up and go out and earn the victory, no matter who the opponent is, and what their record may be. This disgusting attitude has landed Washington’s team in the situation it’s in now. The media and management may blame Coach Jim Zorn for not preparing the team for games, as well as questionable play calling, and a whole lot of other stuff, but when it comes down to it, it’s execution that gets the win at the end. Execution is something this team does not know how to create.

What are the factors for this teams inconsistency? Truth be told, the Washington Redskins have been an inconsistent franchise since…….forever. They may have a few Lombardi trophies in the case, but almost every team in the league does. At some point in time, a bad team gets a run going and wins something, and then there are the teams that are consistently good. Over the 77 years the team has existed, they only have a .515 winning percentage. From where we come from, a .515 winning percentage is average. Average, to the Washington fans isn’t acceptable, because the Washington fans want to see a consistent winner. We aren’t spoiled by any means; we just want to see our team win. And losing to the door mats of the league in consecutive seasons isn’t going to make the fans happy, nor will it bring some sort of stability to this franchise.

Now with that loss and even before that loss, Coach Jim Zorn’s job security is tested. He has to do something to bring life back into this franchise and the fan base. P³ Entertainment has talked to several diehard Washington Redskin fans and they are ready to “walk away”. We know they’re not going to start supporting other teams, but they are going to ignore the team and focus their time and energy on other things. There is no reason to continue to watch this franchise fail time and time again, when “on paper” they are the best team in the NFL. If you watch “the best NFL team on paper” actually play, they are not the best team in the NFL in any fashion. They may be in the top 10 in a majority of the offensive statistical categories, but they can’t score when they get into the Red Zone. That’s been their problems for the past few years. Red Zone offense is an issue that needs to be resolved, and quickly. And not only is the Red Zone offense a problem, their corner and defensive backs are getting burned game after game. They can’t cover an old lady using a walker in a route and any decent quarterback who studies film should know to go at the DBs every game with malice in their hearts. The offensive line is only good for so many games before they start to break down, because the franchise refuses to draft young backups for the offensive line positions and utilize them sparingly so they can gain some sort of experience. They trade away their high draft picks for players who were a problem child for other teams and then lose them to free agency a year later or trade that player away for another player of no value to the team. That’s why the problems of the team start at the very summit and works it way down. The very attitude of how the franchise is run trickles down to the players and even lower. The fans now see this and wish for a change, but there will be no change as long as Daniel Snyder continues to own the franchise and micro-manages the player personnel. He’s going to run the franchise as he sees fit and in his vision; no matter how convoluted his vision may be. And in the meantime, the players are going to get paid then chill, and we as fans are going to continue to see this bullshit of a football team and be pissed off every other Monday because they can’t get it together.

P³ Entertainment wish the Redskins well during this young season. We hope Coach Jim Zorn doesn’t lose his job because the players just don’t fit and he doesn't have much to work with. Maybe he should step up and tell Daniel Snyder to get him players that he knows will work in his scheme, instead of using the parts that Snyder sees as his play pieces to a winning team. Sometimes stepping to the boss isn’t a bad idea when all other ideas just don’t work. Good luck Redskins.

This is P³ Entertainment with a commentary, straight, no chaser.

DVD Review: Mike Epps - Funny Bidness

In the light of Chappelle’s Show, funnyman Mike Epps brings his own brand of sketch comedy to DVD with the hilarious Funny Bidness. With a mixture of stand-up comedy, straight from the streets interaction with everyday people, and sketch comedy, this DVD is a must have for your collection.

Mike Epps is one funny dude. He starts off with some stand up, talking about everything as common as standing on the stage and having thoughts of looking like a pimp, to seeing a white girl leave early and he noticing she has no ass. It’s the usual Mike Epps, cracking jokes and acting silly. The skits are the highlight of the DVD. He starts the skits off by having a parody of the late night reality show “Cheaters”, where Mike plays a guy cheating on his girlfriend with someone from her family. He’s out in the open about his cheating and the explanation why he’s cheating will have you rolling on the floor.

Some of his stand up, you may have seen from previous stand up shows and DVD releases, but that’s normal for comedians to recycle jokes for about a year, but the new stuff is must see. He talks about strip clubs, having more friends while on drugs than when having money, relationships with God once you get money and how God will test your faith by threatening to take your money, and how expensive church has gotten.

Other skits include a parody of “Unsolved Mysteries”, where a parolee winning a $2 million dollar lottery and celebrating the win in the halfway house he’s staying in then comes up missing, and he didn’t go on vacation; a day in the life of Michelle and Barack Obama in the White House; and a skit where a lonely woman summons the mythical “The Cuddler” to lay down and cuddle with her. There are other skits on the DVD that are just as funny like the parody of the Dr. Phil Show, and a mid 80s early 90s singing and dancing sensation who went from riches to rags due to an embarrassing problem, he had to ‘fly the coup’. We’re not going to tell everything that he does in the 90 minutes of hilarious antics, but it’s a good DVD to pick up and pop in and have a good time with your lady/man or while you’re having a get together.


Check out the DVD. It’s available from P³ Entertainment for review.
