From Steroids to the Court: Marion Jones...is back
Well well, when the checks stop rolling in you gotta do what you gotta do! Marion Jones was just released from jail. She was serving time for taking steroids during the olympics (Syd,Aus-1999). On March 10, 2010, the Tulsa Shock announced that Jones had signed to play with the team, making the professional minimum ($35,000) in her first season.
.....35,000!!!! Girl you could have made more money selling Bob Marley CD's out the trunk of your car.

Angry Black Woman.
You know I have to say I am proud of Mo'Nique for winning Best Supporting Actress at the Academy. However, I must say this... When will a black actress get an academy for not playing a stereotypical angry black woman.
Stereotypes about black women have coursed through pop culture for centuries. They range from the smiling, asexual, and often obese Mammy to the promiscuous Jezebel who lures men with her sexual charms. But the one getting a major workout these days is the angry black woman. No one ever sees her as independent or innovative she is always loud, rude, and ready to cuss you out.
I hope I am alive the day a black woman can receive an award for just pure talent.
