Comment on Rapper, Diddy's cousin sentenced in BMF sting by To black barbie
04:23AM, 01.07.09
You make it hard for women when you act in such a way that tells a man " I don't have to go home and do the right thing by my wife, I have this women here willing to accept anything I give to her". Don't be part of the problem, be part of the solution. And it goes both ways, I do understand that. You coming on here in the first place, being so smug, saying such things, when you are well aware of myself and his family members being on here, is a major slap in the face. Not cool at all! So you misunderstand, the karma I suggest is not about sleeping with a married man, it is about causing others hurt by your blatent inconsideration to boast about your irresponsible actions. I am talking to you now only because I know you have better sense than that.. Don't get caught up in the hype. Take Care & God Bless You!

Ewwwwwwwwwww! BB just stop talking, you really need to change yourself. Woman to woman..real talk your too old to be trying to play positions, you should want stability with someone who respects you and Deron didnt. The first time you let him hit, all respect he may have had for you flew out the door and you enabled him to come back becuz he knew he could. You said while he was in ATL, yall had sex?! honey what kind of booty call bullshit you on at 34? no way no how, a nigga couldnt just call me for some ass and leave me laying there looking stupid. You are emotionally attached to him whether you believe it or not, I hope you find the courage to restore yourself. Now on to Mr. Deron because i wont just get on you. He aught' to be shamed! this black king carrying himself like a whore! Men you are more than that too! Of course you guys dont get as much flack as us women but it is still despicable. He is very handsome, I hope he doesnt go back tothis lifestyle, AIDS dont discriminate! He has such a lovely wife

Comment on Tragic saga of celeb trainer's beating continues by One Iam
03:47AM, 01.07.09
Truth seeker is a liar that has no interest in the truth. He just wants to paint Darius Miller as some kind of hero instead of the zero that he was in trying to strong arm some young people and take their camera. His condition is the result of his own actions. Darius is screwed up, Apollo is dead and the Franklin sisters that started the whole tragedy have silently disappeared. Another lesson in life.

wait how could little ol me by myself make it hard for women? could it be possible that the men are too blame as well? another problem is D keeping u blind to his actions which by the way i honestly thought you knew. men keeping it under wraps, his nasty behavior, that is wrong as well. although i knew he was a freak, i still made the decision to sleep with him when he was in atlanta. that wasnt smart on my part, i can admit that now and deep down then i knew it it was wrong but thats just how it goes sometimes. i dont sleep with married men at all so my karma is very good mrs hall, nothing will come back and bite me except my regrets

Either I don't believe you or I can't relate to your behavior. But any way you slice it, it is still all bad. At 30 why would you even settle just to play a position? Women who act like you do a lot of homewrecking and make it harder for real women to thrive in relationships. Because if you don't act that way, then these men couldn't get away with what they do. Oh, and to your comment this morning..how I knew about these going ons, he did the MOST to make sure I stayed blind to and didn't know about any of this mess. So while your thinking it's not a "shocker", it most certainly was/is to me. Let's hope one day the misery you inflicted on other women by your actions, doesn't come right back to you 10 fold and bite you in your ass.

Homebrewery Spotlight: Dave's Homebrew
05:00PM, 12.22.08
We've got something different on tap this week. We're doing a brewery spotlight, but not on a commercial brewery! This week, it's all about homebrew! Dave was kind enough to send four of his beers down for us to try, and on this episode, we talk about his brewery setup and taste all four beers. Homebrewing is an awesome hobby, and for anyone interested in craft beer, it's a great way to learn more about the craft. Listen in this week, as we taste some beer that can rival that of many commercial breweries. Plus, Dave has won major awards for his bottle labels (Grand Prize in the Brew Your Own label contest), so he's not only a talented brewer, but a great graphic artist. Got a favorite beer from your region? Send it our way and we'll try it on the show! Email us at podcast [at] davisondraft [dot] com. Sampled this week: Shark Bite Bitter, Captain IPA, The Abyss and Dave's Scottish Ale.
