Seattle Times Reports
Radio personality Rush Limbaugh has joined forces with Dave Checketts, owner of the NHL St. Louis Blues, in a bid to buy the St. Louis Rams, league sources confirmed.
The Limbaugh-Checketts group has made its bid on the team and plans to keep it in St. Louis.
According to league sources, there are multiple bidders for the Rams as the potential sale of the franchise has advanced to a second stage — from looking for potential buyers to evaluating the merits of bidders. It is not known who the other bidders are.
"I certainly think individual bidders have the right to discuss their interest in the club," said Kevin Demoff, the Rams' executive vice president of football operations. "There's really nothing for us to say. It's really not fair to anybody involved in the process.
"There is no inevitability for the team to wind up being for sale, anyway. There may be bidders, but that doesn't mean there will be a sale."
Checketts, the founder and chief executive officer of SCP Worldwide, a New York-based firm that owns and operates the Blues, would be the frontman for a group of investors that would purchase at minimum the 60 percent share of the Rams owned by Chip Rosenbloom and Lucia Rodriguez, the son and daughter of the Rams' late owner, Georgia Frontiere.
Limbaugh, a conservative political commentator, said in a statement: "Dave and I are part of a bid to buy the Rams, and we are continuing the process. But I can say no more because of a confidentiality clause in our agreement with Goldman Sachs. We cannot and will not talk about our partners. But if we prevail, we will be the operators of the team."
Limbaugh, originally from Cape Girardeau, Mo., worked briefly as a commentator for ESPN's NFL pregame show in 2003 but resigned amid controversy over his remarks about media coverage of Philadelphia quarterback Donovan McNabb.
Forbes magazine recently valued the Rams' franchise at more than $900 million, but it is believed the Rams' sale might fetch $800 million or less given the state of the economy and the state of the team, which has lost 14 games in a row.

Rapper was to be release from prison Tuesday, but a rep says officials may deport him to Belize.MTV Reports
It looks like Shyne's homecoming is on hold for the moment.
The former Bad Boy rapper (born Jamal Barrow) was scheduled to be released from prison Tuesday (October 6) after serving more than nine years of a 10-year sentence in connection with the 2001 Club New York shooting involving Diddy and Jennifer Lopez.
But his release is now under review, as representatives for the rapper revealed to MTV News that the Brooklyn MC is being detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at an unspecified facility in Western New York State. Officials are determining whether or not to deport the rapper, who was born in Belize, a rep explained.
"Shyne is currently in federal custody while his future immigration status is determined," the rep said in a message to MTV News. Shyne attorney Oscar Michelen emphasized to MTV News on Tuesday afternoon that Shyne has not been released, contrary to media reports.
In August, a lawyer for Shyne said the rapper was "90 percent of the way home" after a judge ruled on his post-release supervision. The rapper received two and a half years of post-release supervision (probation, essentially) stemming from his conviction on first-degree assault and a host of other lesser charges. At the time of his sentencing, an official with the Department of Correction confirmed to MTV News that Shyne would have to complete at least eight years and seven months of his prison sentence.
For years, though, Shyne's release date has been the subject of much confusion. Michelen acknowledged the subject had become urban legend, as the rumors started yearly that his client would be released. Michelen told MTV News in August that he believed a clerical error led to the incorrect assumptions.
"I think [the basis for the rumor] was created by a computer," he explained, "because the Department of Corrections has a Web site where you can do an inmate lookup. And if you have the information, it will show you that [Shyne's] earlier release date was originally April [of this year] and then June. And we don't now how that was in there. But it showed that. And then what would happen is before a release date, [an inmate] would get produced before a parole board, and in the institution, there would be rumors that [Shyne] was up for parole. I guess inmates or guards would spread the rumor."
At press time, the status of Shyne's release from prison remained unclear.

It's been quite a while since we heard from former G-Unit first lady Olivia, since being dropped from 50 Cent's label.
While it may seem like she's disappeared into oblivion, Olivia has continued to stay busy. In a new interview with PowerPlayed.com, she updates fans.
"I've been doing movies, y'all, finishing the album, I've been touring overseas," Olivia explained. "It's been a whole lot that y'all haven't seen me doing, but the people who have been following me online, checking out where I've been, they know what's up."
According to the singer, she's in a whole new space, musically. After feeling constricted with G-Unit, unable to really do R&B records, Olivia explains why she feels free in the studio.
"I've been working even though y'all don't think I've been working ...," she said. "When I was on G-Unit, I had to conform to what was on G-Unit, so I couldn't come out with R&B records because I was with a bunch of rappers. So now, I get to do exactly what I want to do and you get to hear me really sing. But again, for the people that come to my live shows, they see what I do ... I'm no longer with G-Unit, I'm back solo."
Further details regarding her new album, and label situation were unknown at press time.

A few days ago the cover of 50 Cent's upcoming "Before I Self Destruct" album leaked featuring 50 in a part demon, part battle-scarred Terminator style. "The album cover, I sat there and thought about it," Fif said. "I wanted to do something that was completely different than I’ve ever done. The Curtis album, I was pretty close in the camera when I done it. I felt it was intimate."50 says he wanted to make this one, even more intimate. "This project is even more [intimate], but it’s harder. I didn’t sugarcoat things. My imperfections are visible on there. I’m in a secure enough space. … It’s a huge gape in hip-hop. There ain’t no middle ground. You’re either here or you’re there. To create the middle ground, the guys that have been up here gotta come down and bring everybody to the forefront where they seen. That’s what this is actually about."

CBSNEWS Reports
NEW YORK (CBS) New York Rapper Shyne was released from prison today after serving more than eight years for his role in a 1999 New York night club shooting involving mentor Sean "P. Diddy" Combs and actress Jennifer Lopez.
A Clinton Correctional Facility staffer confirmed his release.
Shyne, whose real name is Jamal Barrow, was charged in March 2001, with attempted murder, assault and reckless endangerment.
According to MTV, "The rapper admitted to firing a gun at Club New York, but maintained that he was acting in self-defense and that another gunman's bullets injured the two victims. He faced up to 25 years in prison."
He was sentenced to only 10, which he began on June 1, 2001.
"It's a blessing that he's coming home," Combs said in a recent radio interview on Hot 97 in New York. "I spoke to him like a couple of weeks ago and he sounded like he was in good spirits."
While serving time, the rapper released two albums and reportedly converted to Judiasm. He legally changed his name Moses Michael Leviy.

HipHopWired Reports
Hip-Hop is at a cross roads and ignorance can no longer be shadowed as freedom of creative expression. With teenagers dying mercifully at the hands of each other and recent media attention only being drawn to the epidemic as the murders of 16-year-old Derrion Albert from Chicago and 13-year old Kevin Miller in Queens made national headlines, Hip-Hop has to stop talking about it and start being about their actions.
One MC taking responsibility is “Queensbridge's Finest” Cormega. While many rappers glorify their time or “alleged” time in the streets, Cormega's tone was always apologetic for the ills of his past which is one reason he's been highly regarded as a lyricist's lyricist.
As MC's speak on the recent light being put on the murder of our young Black youth by each other, Mega took a moment to speak with Hip-Hop Wired about MC's becoming more conscience and being more accountable for the words they put in their rhymes. Speaking on the power to shape minds of the next generation and putting the bullshit street antics to the back burner, Cormega stated,
“I came to the understanding, that whenever you have power, whether it's a lot of power or a little bit of power, you have influence. And influence, especially in ghettos when there's kids looking up to us, or young men and adults looking up to us, what we say is indoctrination. Some of the things we say, people apply that to their life. When I was growing up I heard Kool G Rap say, ‘I keep stepping with a nine in my waist line/ Got 16 shots now the weights mine.'
So when he was saying that shit I was doing that shit that he was saying in the song but I was looking up to him because I felt he was speaking my life. So you can say I was living that life and him speaking it made me respect what he said even more. I don't want to be that dude that's glorifying drugs and glorifying some of the things that I have done because there's a lot of young dudes that look up to me. And I never knew that until I became internet savvy and I had dudes send me letters from jail or people wrote me actual emails saying, ‘Yo, your music saved my life.' And I never knew that my music affected their life or helped them get through life. Songs like “Are You My Nigga” helped them realize who their real friends are so my words have an affect on people because they look at me as a person who's telling the truth so I don't want to glorify the negativity.”
Gearing to release his third solo project Born & Raised on October 20th, Mega continues to speak the realness with cuts like “Make It Clear,” “Live & Learn” and “Journey.” Using his music to teach and inspire hope and delivering his story in the form of lessons learned, Mega added,
“I got shot before but that doesn't give me street credibility at all, that makes me a victim. So I don't want no young dude thinking that's a rite of passage. Because when I was growing up the niggas that came out of jail, we looked up to them. We was like he was in C-74, he went to jail…he's a real nigga. But at the end of the day he was in jail cause he got caught, we have to stop looking up to people for the wrong reasons.
We have to start looking up to people for the right reasons, like there's people that come home from the armed forces. They risked their life to fight for our liberties and we don't even look up to them and give them respect and those are the people that we should be looking up to. So when I made my music as I grew older I became apologetic but I've been apologetic. I know a dude that I shot and I regretted I shot him. It was for a reason, it was for the cause but it's like damn. At the end of the day I could've killed that nigga and it wasn't over nothing.
And there's times I look back when I was younger and we stood on the block. There was a time when I gave a crack head crack when she was pregnant but I stopped because I realized you might be affecting that child. Other people's mentality was ‘Fuck it. If I don't give it to her someone else is gonna give it to her' but you can't think like that. So when I made my music, I don't just give you the cinematic view, like Menace II Society. That's a movie but that shows you the ills but you can't smell the asphalt, or you can't smell the gun powder from that movie so I'm trying to give it to you as raw as I could and as true as I could so you don't make the same mistakes I made. Yeah, I went to jail but that doesn't make me a real nigga. That makes me a nigga that got caught for some bullshit and that makes me stripped for those years that I lost doing that bid.”
Living in the white man's world, Cormega also addressed the blocks many dealers claim they own but in actuality that corner will belong to someone else if they become incarcerated and it's still not the next dealer's property either. Giving an even more in depth look at the harshness many in the hood face yet many rappers front like they lived that life, Cormega also declares that it's time for MCs to take responsibility and stop reliving the past.
“I sold drugs but for what glory did I sell drugs. Cause, think about it. You sell drugs and you say this is my block and you got the whole block locked but whose block is it really? 10 yers from now you'll be in jail or if not you might still be making the same money you've been making but what happens? What do you gain from that? There's been dudes that killed their man or flipped on their man over petty drug money so it's like I give you the truth in my music so you can apply it to your life. Whether you do it in a positive or negative way but if it give you the truth and I tell you the downfalls of it, at last nobody can say I glorified the bullshit. Some people can actually learn from me.
If I could do my life different I would. If I could have my mother back…my mother got killed in front of me when I was 5. I hear rappers say they had a hard life and I just be looking at them like this nigga's a clown because I know they didn't. I know they lived with their mothers and had parents there but they were just the fucked up kid out the bunch. Their other brothers and sisters are doing good. I had a hard life, if I could've had an easy life, I would've chosen that path. I know there's some kid somewhere that's hustling at 16 like I was, or there's a young kid sitting in the jail cell scared trying to figure out what's his next move and thinking he can't do nothing with his life.
So I'm trying to be that person…everybody knows I went to jail and been through shit, so I want to be that person where some young dude somewhere or some older dude somewhere can say, ‘Yo Mega went home from jail and he made it.' I can do that. A rapper won't tell you this cause they haven't been to jail; some of them have but a lot of them are fronting. When you're in jail you're taught to believe that you're nothing, that's how the C.O.s look at you. I had a C.O. look at me with disgust and say “convict.” He called me a fucking convict.
Basically they telling you you're not shit and you can't get a job when you come home and you don't have any dreams. So for me, every step that I take further or height that I rise to higher is letting every person in jail know: Yo mega came straight from jail and he got a deal and he's on. I'm trying to inspire people. Just like Bernard Hopkins, he came from jail and he's a lightweight champion, and that's what I try and do with my music and my life.”Read more…
Braylon EdwardsNFL.Com Reports
BEREA, Ohio -- LeBron James called Browns receiver Braylon Edwards "childish" for allegedly punching James' friend early Monday morning outside of a Cleveland night club
James said Edwards punched Edward Givens, a friend of James' and a promoter with a Cleveland marketing firm who was working outside the club around 2:30 a.m. EDT.
"I've never crossed paths with Braylon before, but it seems like there's a little jealousy going on with Braylon and me and my friends. I have no idea why," James said. "I've never said anything to Braylon at all. But for him to do that is very childish. My friend is 130 pounds. Seriously. It's like hitting one of my kids. It doesn't make sense."
Lebron James
Edwards was not available for comment Monday as the Browns regrouped following their 23-20 overtime loss to Cincinnati on Sunday. He did post a message on his Twitter account -- OfficialBraylon -- at 5:25 p.m., offering praise to James.
"I have no issue with LeBron," Edwards tweeted. "I respect and admire him."
James says he was home when the fight occurred, but got a call from Givens telling him about it at 7 a.m. Monday.
Edward Givens
Edwards' manager issued a statement, hoping to soothe any perceived rivalry between two of Cleveland's biggest sports stars.
"Braylon has nothing but the highest respect for LeBron James as an athlete and person," Hayes Grooms said.
Browns coach Eric Mangini said he has spoken with Edwards about the alleged fight.
"I know there is an incident that has been reported with Braylon Edwards, it's something that I am aware of. It is something that I spoke with Braylon about and personal conduct is very important to me. I always want our players to put themselves in the most positive positions. This is something I will continue to gather information on."
Edwards faces possible disciplinary action from the Browns and the league.
The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer first reported the incident on its Web site, cleveland.com.
According to a police incident report, Givens accused an unidentified man of punching him in the face following an argument at approximately 2:30 a.m. Givens, who is listed as 5-foot-7, 135 pounds on the report, said the 6-foot-3, 215-pound Edwards hit him with a closed fist. He told police he suffered a black eye and cut and was treated at a hospital.
Edwards' name did not appear in a police report. He was not arrested and there are no charges pending against him.
Edwards was not in Cleveland's locker room during the portion open to the media.
Givens told the Plain Dealer for a story on its Web site that he was outside greeting people when Edwards approached him.
"Braylon comes up and started saying things, degrading me," Givens said. "He said if it wasn't for LeBron (James) or the Four Horsemen (James' friends and business partners), I wouldn't have what I have, nor would I be able to get girls. Everyone knows Braylon has a problem with LeBron.
"So I had to speak up for myself. The conversation started to escalate. As some of his teammates started to pull him back, he punched me. As long as I've known Braylon, I've allowed him and his friends to come into our events free of charge. Whatever jealousy he has with LeBron, he felt he needed to take it out on me."
Edwards did not catch a pass in the loss to Cincinnati. It was the first time in 62 career games Edwards did not have at least one reception.

Harlem, New York producer/rapper Ron Browz recently revealed to AllHipHop.com that he has split from his label, Universal Motown.
According to Browz, he could not see eye-to-eye with the label, despite experiencing success in 2009, including two BET Award nominations for hit records he recorded.
Browz, who produced classic tracks by rappers like Big L, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, DMX and Nas, was signed to Universal Motown via his own imprint, Ether Boy Records.
Since signing with Universal Motown in September of 2008, Browz produced three massive hit singles: the collaborative track “Pop Champagne” featuring Jim Jones, “Jumpin’ Out the Window” and “Arab Money” featuring Busta Rhymes.
“Currently me and Universal decided it was best for us to part ways as far as business, because little creative differences,” Browz told AllHipHop.com exclusively. “I love Sylvia [Rhone]. Sylvia was the first person to give me an opportunity to show the world what I could as far as being an artist.”
Browz, born Rondell Turner, is continuing on with his career, while negotiating with various recording companies for his next deal.
The rapper recently shot a video for his new single “$20 Dollarz,” which should be released in the next two weeks.
The remix to the track features OJ Da Juiceman, Jim Jones, Shawty Lo, Nicki Minaj and a new verse by fellow Harlemite, Mase.
On the production side, Browz recently produced “She’s A Killer” on Ghostface’s new album The Wizard of Poetry, Nicki Minaj’s new track “Get Crazy” and an upcoming tune by crooner Bobby Valentino.
Browz, who used the controversial Autotune technology on his two biggest hits, as well as the track he just produced for Ghostface’s Wizard album, shared his opinion on the voice enhancing effect.
“People criticized it, but you can’t deny hot records,” Browz told AllHipHop.com. “All these records was crazy in the club. And the funny thing is, after D.O.A., it seemed like more Autotune records came out after the record came out.”
Ron Browz is currently working on his major label solo debut.

How'd that slug feel going in ya mouth u B***H A** N***A lol... Stop lying to these people like u tough P***Y!!!
Whoever started this whole Internet thuggin' and the idea that a person can talk tough through text or even worse, Twitter, should be slapped across the face. What has the world come to when people are sending threats and flexing muscle through a keyboard?
Rapper Fabolous has started an epidemic of trash talk as many are using this new outlet to air out opponents.
For some reason, Ja Rule will not allow himself to let his past with 50 Cent go. Just accept the L and move on because there's no point in fueling a past in which you caught the mightiest of losses. Although stating that 50 is the last thing on his mind, such things as this makes the rapper come off as still being a little bitter and hot over what happened.
“I want ppl to know that I'm not thinking about this clown boo boo but he's always mentioning my name tell this n***a to get off my D**K! Lol”
The fire was lit under Ja when 50 referred to his old adversary as a “sucka” and he quickly reverted back to grade school to unleash a response when asked.
RT @mafiosoglok GLOK ON THE SPOT: Q: @RuleYork What do you think about @50Cent calling you a sucka still live on Ustream?
By ending his prolonged beef with DMX, it felt as though Ja was back to deliver the positivity that was part of his career when he was signing with Ashanti. Obviously, the rapper still has to pump up his chest every now and then to give a reminder that he still is a gangsta in the streets. Don't be so quick to forget that he made “Thug Lovin” with Bobby Brown and let's not leave out “Clap Back.”
Look, all of this energy and aggression should be focused on something that can help, not hurt. If you like to sing songs, go do that, who cares what 50 said if it worked. Going back and forth is only wasting time and breath.

Already having his fair share of issues with the law, things have taken a turn for the worse for Wu Tang staple, Method Man. Meth was arrested today by New York police for tax evasion. According to WABC New York, the rapper owes the government over $30,000 in taxes. Meth, real name Clifford Smith, is reportedly in police custody waiting for arraignment. He's charged with failure to pay personal income tax and earnings and misdemeanor failure to pay taxes. He faces up to four years behind bars if convicted.
Earlier this year Meth made headlines after a woman accused of him shooting her with a pellet gun. That case is still pending.
He also faced tax issues in 2008 when his Lincoln Navigator was repossessed by the Department of Taxation.
