Saturday, July 26th 2008

In this edition of T2W’s Who Owns the Track?, we have Rihanna and fellow label mate Ne-Yo with “Take A Bow“. I think I’m going to have to give this one to Rihanna; though, I do give props to Ne-Yo for his contribution since obviously he owns the rights to the song. But I think “Take A Bow” just suits Rihanna a little bit more in my opinion. Anyway, Who Owns the Track?

? Rihanna’s Version!

LeBron James Covers TIME Magazine

LeBron James is on the cover of the August 2008 issue of TIME Magazine. He’s currently working hard to push towards the gold medal in the 2008 Men’s Basketball Olympics in Beijing. He talks a little bit about how proud he was to represent the creator of basketball [USA]:

LEBRON: “It’s going to be like waking up on Christmas Day,” says James picturing himself on the stand being presented Beijing’s gold medal. “All you dreamed about this whole month was having that bike you wanted, and you get down to your living room — it’s there. It’s like one of the greatest things that has ever happened to you.”

TIME MAGAZINE: So you’re going to bring a hoops title back home to the U.S., the country that gave birth to the game, reared it and then lost the ball to more graceful global neighbors?

LEBRON: “Absolutely,” James responds. Guarantee it? “Absolutely.”

2008 State Farm USA Basketball Challenge: USA Embarrasses Canada!

The USA Basketball Senior Team got off to a great start in the 2008 Men’s Basketball Olympics last night and made me very proud! Although LeBron James was injured with a sprained ankle for the challenge the team still did wonders on the court without him beating Canada by 55 (120-65)!!! Imagine if LeBron James was playing! Coach Mike Krzyzewski said he wanted Dwyane Wade as emergency backup just in case something happened to Kobe Bryant or LeBron James. The backup [Dwayne Wade] kicked into overdrive in the challenge against Canada scoring 20 points in his first game in 4 months. Chris Paul, who had 11 points and 8 assists, talked about Wade’s perservance:

“D-Wade is a warrior to anybody who knows him. He’s been rehabbing and he’s been working out probably more than anybody, just trying to get back in shape,” Chris Paul said. “That’s D-Wade. We see it every day in practice and you saw it tonight, that he’s back. When he’s aggressive like that, we’re a dangerous team.”
