Donovan NcNabb has no time in his life for social networking sites and thinks other athletes should follow his lead.

The Washington Redskins quarterback was speaking on ESPN's Waddle & Silvy radio show last week when the subject of Chicago qb Jay Cutler came up. Cutler was criticized heavily last year by some NFL players on Twitter when he couldn't return to a playoff game because of a knee injury.

McNabb, who has been no stranger to criticism throughout his career said he could identify with Cutler, and thinks it is unprofessional for athletes to tweet about situations like that.

"First of all, I'm not a fan of Twitter. Nothing against their program or what they have, but as an athlete I think you need to get off twitter," Mcnabb said. "All these social networks of you tweeting about you watching a game when you want to be playing in it, but you're mad you're not playing in it, so you're gonna criticize someone that's playing in it. I don't believe that that's the right deal. That's not professional by any means and you know we are all in a fraternity, so if you see a guy who's struggling this isn't the time to jump on him or kick him while he's down because that same guy will come against you and kinda blast your team out the water, so I think for an athlete to be 'twittering' is the wrong move. It's one of those things to leave to the fans and let them comment on certain things, but athletes need to get off Twitter."

What do you think of McNabb's comments?

The Bay Area trio of Kreayshawn, V-Nasty and Lil Debbie, better known as the White Girl Mob have been catching a lot of flack for their use of the word "nigga." It's something that was picked up in the environment they were raised in according to them. and at least one well known black Oakland rapper is in their corner.

In an interview with WeTheWest.com Mistah Fab says people should fall back in their criticism of the group.

"First of all you motherf*ckers need to wake up," he said. "This is 2011, nobody gives a sh*t about that no more. We grew up in the same communities, same neighborhoods. It's not the same as how people once looked at it. You want to stand up for a cause like that? You'll let somebody from your own race disrespect you all day, then soon as someone from outside your race...you want to turn into Malcolm X or Martin Luther King or Dick Gregory. All of a sudden you're Huey Newton."

Fab thinks that a lot of the people pointing fingers are being hypocritical.

"You're the same person that sells dope in your community all day. You shoot guns, but you wanna trip off of someone saying the word 'n*gga,'" the rapper said. "And believe it or not V-Nasty is mobbing harder than you n*ggas that's mad at her saying the word 'n*gga.' She just got out of jail for a robbery. She not playing dawg. When she rap about that sh*t, that's really what she do."

Does Fab have a point? Or is way out of bounds? Weigh in with your opinions below.

"Kim got a butt X-Ray... See, it's REAL!!! LOL," her sister Khloe tweeted along with a link to her Celebuzz page where the picture above was located. "Nothing like a good old Armenian ass to get your day going!"

"Haha! The things my sisters have me do! Proof baby!" Kim replied.

If you're a fan of the reality show "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" you can watch this Sunday as Kim gets the x-ray done by her family doctor according to GlobalGrind.

At least one member of Young Money is unhappy with Universal Records.

Yesterday (June 23) Toronto rapper Drake let his 2.4 million twitter followers know that he's upset with the label for removing his music from the net.

Although he didn't mention the name of the songs he was referring to specifically, two new tracks, "Trust Issues" and "Marvin's Room" recently hit the net.

Universal has a very strict policy of removing download and streaming links of songs depending on the artist and whether or not the tracks were leaked prematurely.

Drake isn't the only artist dealing with this issue. Another Universal artist 50 Cent often releases free original material for his fans as well.

Albums and songs leaked by hackers are a huge problem for the industry, so it's understandable that labels want to protect their investments. But where do they draw the line between the hackers and artists doing it themselves?

Cooler heads have prevailed allowing Chris Brown and Odd Future to dead their beef.

The two camps have been going at each other for the last several weeks culminating in a confrontation on the streets of L.A. yesterday when Odd Future singer Frank Ocean was confronted two of Brown's cousins.

No violence popped off, but the situation was obviously escalating leading to Chris reaching out to OFWGKTA's Tyler The Creator to put the nonsense to bed.

Fagilyu Mukhametzyanov pictured with her husband Fagili, died from shock after waking up at her own funeral.

Mourners showed up at the funeral of Fagilyu Mukhametzyanov to say their final farewells -- instead they got the shock of their lives.

Mukhametzyanov, 49, who had wrongfully been declared dead suddenly awoke and started screaming before suffering a heart attack and dying for real.

"Her eyes fluttered and we immediately rushed her back to the hospital but she only lived for another 12 minutes in intensive care before she died again, this time for good," her husband said according to the Daily Mail. "I am very angry and want answers. She wasn’t dead when they said she was and they could have saved her."

The husband had been told prior to the funeral that his wife had died from a heart attack after going to the hospitals with chest pains.

The hospital located in Kazan, Russia where the error occured would only say that they were "carrying out an investigation" into the matter.
