Mike Tyson is one of my favorite people. From the moment I saw him mow down Bruno in 1989, I was one of Mike Tyson’s biggest fan. Yes, he did not fare too well as a role model. But, he was and is one of the most sincerest and honest people I know. This man, speaks his mind with no contamination. Over the years, we have all read the contempt, the media and foes displayed upon him. Too bad, he could have been the greatest ever.

Iron Mike Tyson Weighs In on Chris Brown

The Iron one Mike Tyson has been in the news as of late with big things working on his behalf. The former heavyweight has been retired from the ring for quite some time now and it has been a while since we have even heard anything from him. The reason behind his sudden media coverage is the fact that his documentary film detailing his life and boxing career. Tyson, who is no stranger to the law, has had his fair share of domestic violence issues in the past with two different women.

While he was married to actress Robin Givens in the late 80’s, he was plagued by accusations of domestic violence and spousal abuse against him. Even after the end of that relationship, Tyson was then sentenced to 3 years in prison after be being convicted of raping Desiree Washington. Tyson recently sat down with MTV News and discussed his upcoming documentary at the same time they even asked him about the whole Chris Brown and Rihanna situation.

These were his comments:

“It’s none of my business, but you know what I say about that? I understand the situation. I understand passion with young kids. My personal opinion about that is he’s just a baby. He’s just a little baby that don’t know how to handle his emotions when it comes to a woman. And he probably hears this and thinks, ‘I know how to handle my emotions’; we all think we do. But the fact [is], you look at this person and you might be crazy in love, but we don’t know how to handle those feelings.”

Tyson continued, knowing that the situation that Brown endured is not too far from his situation that he went through years back. And even though there is comparison between the two, Tyson gave a humble, sincere answer to the situation that he regretted going through:

Now you’re a fly guy and a cool guy, you have this pimp mentality. You have to be hard like that. You can’t abuse them. It’s really sick what you [can] do. She has a space in your heart and you believe you care about her more than anybody in the world. Do I think it’s right to beat up a woman? No — hell no. Have I hit a woman before? Hell yeah. Was I wrong? Hell yeah. I’m a product of that environment. Do I regret ever doing that? Hell yeah. Would I do it again? Never.

At press time, the documentary entitled simply ‘Tyson’ has been set to be released this Friday (April 24). Somewhere down the line, Tyson even mentioned that Jamie Foxx might be playing him in the upcoming biopic.

Seriously! How many people who revere you, get what you have ever said and stood for? If ONLY your message was followed to the letter, things would be different.

Instead, what do we have?

Excuses! Excuses! What a shame?

Craigslist was, is and hopefully not will be the garbage site of the Internet. I always knew that Craigslist was a no good refuse of the web masquerading as the preeminent classified ads website for students and businesses. But, that is a lie. The average online user does not know that over 80% of Craigslist visitors are drawn to their adult web solicitations. And not the kind blatantly paraded on usual adult websites. The ads posted on CL are highly dangerous and risky. Especially for kids who wander about getting acquainted with scumbags of the dark side.

I had warned about Craigslist’s unworthy existence as an Internet company a few months ago. There are more victims of Craigslist’s users than law enforcement will ever find out about. It took a murder of a NYC masseuse in Boston to reignite the dangers of Craigslist’s dangerous existence and its denial of its core offering – Adult sex and drug use solicitations.

Want a used armchair? There are many alternatives. Boycott Craigslist. Your patronage will only keep this garbage website offer thrash to our kids thereby endangering their lives. There is enough smut to go around within our society. The last thing we need is the smut taking away precious lives. Avoid Craigslist. For yours and your kids safety.

My Earlier Craigslist Rant

Anyone, caught in your mystery
Keep it angry
Keep it whispy
Ive fallen down
Drunk on your juices

Turn my head
Turn my head
Its aimed at you

Funky temple
Your dress is torn to shreds
Your eyes are crazy
I bowed to save my head and
I cant forget you
But I can’t remember

Turn my head
Turn my head
Its aimed at you

Oh no,
We came to love you all day
These bastards are leavin
Somebodys got to stay
Whatever we called you
Its just a name
Just a name

This was (music video below) Susan Boyle, 10 years ago. How did this talent go unnoticed this long? Reminds me of Robert DeNiro in ‘The Bronx Tale.’

“The biggest tragedy in life is talent wasted.”

In case of Susan Boyle, it is not too late.
