Justin Timberlake To Play Super Bowl Halftime Show 14 Years After Nipplegate @ARTISTdirect

Image
Mon, 23 Oct 2017 10:53:58 In a short skit with Jimmy Fallon posted to Twitter Sunday night, Justin Timberlake announced he will be performing in the halftime show of this coming Super Bowl, officially known as the Pepsi Halftime Show at Super Bowl LII. Of course, no mention of the announcement can be considered complete without mentioning the events that occurred at the tail end of the Super Bowl XXXVII show, when Timberlake finished his dance number by revealing the breast of fellow performer Janet Jackson while singing the final line, "Gonna have you naked by the end of this song." The cultural and legal repercussions of the 9/16th's of a second when Jackson's breast and a sun-shaped nipple decoration were revealed to the world cannot be understated. The FCC immediately slapped CBS with a $550,000 fine following complaints by an alleged 540,000 viewers. The NFL blames MTV, while CBS and Viacom blacklisted Janet Jackson across their wide range of communications...

Snoop Dogg Details New Album ‘Make America Crip Again’ @ARTISTdirect

Image
Mon, 23 Oct 2017 11:20:22 Snoop Dogg takes a step into the political spotlight with the announcement of his forthcoming new album, Make America Crip Again . The album's title and its first single, ""M.A.C.A.", not-so-subtly reference the "Make America Great Again" slogan used by Donald Trump throughout his election campaign and presidency. The Ben-Billions produced album is due out October 27 of this year, and will feature Chris Brown and OT Genesis, among others. The new LP follows Neva Left , which dropped in May of this year. With so many recent events for inspiration, the quick turnaround should perhaps come as no surprise. The new song isn't all protest and anger, though. Instead, Snoop highlights inequality, referencing the Ku Klux Klan, Donald Trump, and Colin Kaepernick, but all the while focuses on positive thought and community-oriented action moving forward, with the song's hook repeatedly insisting, "The world is yours." ...

Eagles: Carson Wentz in debate as NFL's second-best QB

Three thoughts from the Eagles' 34-24 win over Washington on Monday night: 1. With Aaron Rodgers down for the remainder of the season, is Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz the second-most difficult quarterback in the NFL to prepare for next to Tom Brady? Allow the following three pieces of evidence for submission: •Forty-seven seconds after getting pounced by Washington pass rusher Ryan Kerrigan on a bootleg gone horribly wrong in the second quarter, Wentz gets 3.51 seconds of pristine pocket and catapults a perfect deep ball to rookie wideout Mack Hollins just as Hollins is entering the “go” portion of his double move. The ball lands in that precious sweet spot – almost so in stride that the intended receiver starts stumbling just a bit as he hauls it in. •On a third-and-goal from Washington’s 9-yard line, Wentz takes the snap from the shotgun, ducks to elude a wave of pass rushers then leans into another two defensive players while sky hoo...

Dhani Harrison Unveils Dystopian Future In Clip For “All About Waiting” @ARTISTdirect

Image
Mon, 23 Oct 2017 11:46:38 Dhani Harrison released an animated music video to accompany his haunting song "All About Waiting". The track was originally released back in July as the first single from his debut solo album IN///PARALLEL , which in turn came out October 6th of this year. The son of Beatle George Harrison previously led the band thenewno2 during the 2000's and has also worked composing music for TV and movies over the years. The new clip features a scientist working in a lab that seems to be genetically modifying everything it can lay its hands on. The outside world is dominated by digital advertisements, polluting power plants, and natural disasters ranging from floods to volcanoes and wildfires. The scientist herself suffers from health issues, seemingly contaminated by her work and its effects. She doses up on medication, shaves her head, and by the end, is replaced by a clone or robot who supervises as she surrenders her failing body to the demented f...

Penn State's Big Ten history: Rivalries, controversies, titles

Sports Illustrated is celebrating Penn State’s last quarter-century of Big Ten play with a special issue, honoring the school’s greatest players and games from the era. You can get your copy at newsstands now, or order it online here. The new era began with a secret dinner. In the spring of 1989, a delegation from Penn State, including football coach Joe Paterno, flew to Champaign, Ill., in a private plane to not draw attention. The president of the University of Illinois, Stanley Ikenberry, sent a driver to the airport but didn’t go himself to avoid being seen. Back at the President’s House on campus, just a single staff member was asked to work that night. The purpose of the dinner was to discuss the possibility of Penn State’s joining the Big Ten. They didn’t want anybody to know, in case it didn’t work out. At that point Penn State was competing as an independent in football, as it had done for a century, but going it alone was...

Liverpool Target PSG's Julian Draxler as Potential Replacement for Philippe Coutinho

Image
Liverpool have identified Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Julian Draxler as a potential replacement for Philippe Coutinho, TeleFoot have reported. Reds boss Jurgen Klopp is believed to be an admirer of the 24-year-old, who has struggled to break into the first-team at the Parc des Princes so far this season. Liverpool have been closely monitoring Draxler's progress, although Arsenal have also been linked with a potential move. no-upscale " data-src="https://24kmusic.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/59edfb232ee40f2fef000001.jpg" data-alt=""> TeleFoot also claim, however, that the German international remains in the plans of PSG, with sports director  Antero Henriquer reportedly a fan.

Buccaneers: TJ Ward and Chris Baker comment on playing time

T.J. Ward is not a fan of the Buccaneers' rotation of safeties. Buccaneers safety T.J. Ward said he is upset over his playing time after Tampa Bay lost its third consecutive game Sunday, dropping its record to 2-4. Tampa Bay has been using a rotation in its secondary to utilize Ward and fellow safeties Chris Conte, Justin Evans and Keith Tandy because of their different skill sets, but Ward is not a fan of that approach. "I came here to be an impact player," Ward said according to Jenna Laine of ESPN.com. "I can't do that that if I'm not on the field." The three-time Pro Bowler added that he was at his "wit's end" and that only defensive coordinator Mike Smith or coach Dirk Koetter could explain why he has not been used more. • Joe Thomas' Incredible Consecutive Snap Streak Ends at 10,363 Due to Injury "I did not come here to rotate," Ward said.

The Phoenix Suns' problems don't end with Earl Watson

It’s running on four seasons now that the Suns have quietly become one of the biggest disasters in the NBA. Sunday’s firing of Earl Watson may provide some temporary relief, but it won’t cure what ills Phoenix. From top to bottom, this organization is in disarray, and Watson was only one issue among many. It wasn’t Watson who added the wrong players to a 48-win team, then traded away two guards who’ve since found success in the East. It wasn’t Watson who signed an aging, injury-prone Tyson Chandler to a four-year deal, only two years after drafting Alex Len with the No. 5 pick. It wasn’t Watson who has held on to Eric Bledsoe despite months of trade rumors, wasting Bledsoe’s prime as the team tanks. The list of personnel blunders goes on and on, and the result is an extremely young team that’s clearly playing for the lottery. That’s not to say Watson is blameless. He was a somewhat controversial hire when he was promote...

USA 6, South Korea 0: Mewis scores two in USWNT friendly (VIDEO)

Watch all the goals from the USA's 6-0 rout of South Korea in a women's soccer friendly. The U.S. women's national team made it two wins in two tries against South Korea, having an even easier time on Sunday than it did last Thursday after rolling to a 6-0 romp in Cary, North Carolina. Samantha Mewis scored twice, while Christen Press, Julie Ertz, Lynn Williams and Allie Long capped the rout, which followed a 3-1 win in New Orleans. Mewis got the scoring started early for the USA, tallying in the third and 20th minutes to put all doubt to bed quickly. Press scored on a rocket from 18 yards out in the 35th minute and Ertz scored for a second straight game, off yet another set piece, just before halftime to make it four entering the break. Williams tapped home a cross from Megan Rapinoe for the fifth, and Long stretched the scoring to a half dozen for the ruthless Americans, while Ashlyn Harris preserved the clean sheet in goal.  The USWNT returns...

Los mejores tweets de la victoria del Atlético de Madrid en Balaídos

Esta tarde Celta de Vigo y Atlético de Madrid se enfrentaron en Balaídos en el encuentro correspondiente a la jornada 9 de La Liga Santander 2017/18. Los rojiblancos se llevaron el partido por 1-0 con gol de Kevin Gameiro (39') . Como es habitual, ambos equipos subieron sus respectivos onces iniciales a las redes sociales una hora antes del comienzo del encuentro. Con su titularidad en el partido de hoy, el uruguayo Diego Godín igualaba a Perea como futbolista extranjero con más partidos con la camiseta del Atlético de Madrid. Las Grada de Río de Balaídos no se pudo abrir al público, por lo que la mitad del estadio del Celta estuvo vacío y los periodistas encargados de narrar el encuentro reubicados. El Celta comenzó dominando el encuentro y en el minuto 17 tuvo ocasión para poner el 1-0 en el marcador, pero Jan Oblak detuvo con una gran parada. Tras el dominio de los locales al comienzo ...

PHOTO: Jonjo Shelvey Taunts Public Enemy Number 1 Yohan Cabaye During Newcastle Goal Celebrations

Yohan Cabaye was left well and truly mugged off during Crystal Palace's defeat to Newcastle at St. James' Park on Saturday. The Frenchman represented the club for three seasons between 2011-14, before moving to Paris Saint-Germain for one year before returning to England with Palace. The 31-year-old is not exactly fondly remembered by Magpies supporters, after he undid all of his good work with the Toon Army by forcing through his move to France via strike action. During Saturday's clash, Cabaye was booed by the home fans, along with Andros Townsend, and his misery was compiled as Mikel Merino scored to condemn the Eagles to another league defeat. To the joy of the Toon Army, midfielder Jonjo Shelvey then celebrated Merino's winner right in Cabaye's face as he was on the floor. The playmaker was actually quite lucky to have been on the pitch at that point after getting away with a dangerous challenge on DeAndre Yedlin. Stills of a grounded Cabaye wit...

Tottenham vs Liverpool live stream: Watch online, TV, time

How to watch Tottenham vs. Liverpool on October 22. Liverpool travel down to Wembley Stadium on Sunday to face Tottenham Hotspur in a Premier League match. Tottenham currently sit in third place on the Premier League table with 17 points. Spurs faced a crucial Champions League match against Real Madrid Tuesday and eked out a draw against a world-class side. In their last domestic match, Tottenham defeated Bournmouth 1-0.

The Reds have not won a Premier League match since Sep. 23 and have just three wins through the first eight games. However, Jürgen Klopp's side produced an encouraging Champions League victory on Wednesday, dominating Maribor 7-0 behind goals from Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Philippe Coutinho. Liverpool will look to close the Premier League gap with a crucial away vict...

Cincinnati loses to SMU on boneheaded final play

This didn’t have to happen. This is the way the game ends. Not with a bang, or a game-tying field goal attempt that prolongs play long enough for someone to win later in overtime, but with Cincinnati quarterback Hayden Moore trying with bravado to not get sacked before throwing an ill-advised shovel pass that gave SMU the ball back. The sad thing is...he could have just taken the sack. That is how you lose a football game. Source link

Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri says he is prioritising victory over the performance as his team prepare to play Udinese tomorrow.

La selección sudamericana que buscó a Reinaldo Rueda

Tras ser uno de los mejores directores técnicos en Sudamérica en los últimos años, el director técnico colombiano Reinaldo Rueda habría tenido una oferta de una selección de la CONMEBOL, la misma que no fue aceptada por el estratega debido a su presente en el fútbol de Brasil. Así lo aseguran varios medios de prensa de Chile, donde se asegura que Rueda estuvo en los planes de la AFNP una vez que el entrenador argentino Juan Antonio Pizzi renunciara a la dirección técnica de la selección de Chile tras no lograr la clasificación al Mundial Rusia 2018 tras varios malos resultados en las últimas fechas.

Justin Verlander Dominates Yankees Again to Force ALCS Game 7

HOUSTON—Here are three thoughts from Friday night at Minute Maid Park, where the Astros beat the Yankees 7-1 in Game 6 of the ALCS to force a decisive Game 7. 1. The Astros Won This Game 51 Nights Ago Dallas Keuchel was thinking about going to bed early. It was 10:30 PM Central on Aug. 31, and the Astros had just returned from the impromptu extended road trip on which Hurricane Harvey had sent them. That afternoon, they had hosted the Rangers, but in St. Petersburg, Florida. Now, though, he was finally home and was playing a few games of FIFA to unwind before bed. Then his phone started shaking. “S---, I’d better answer this,” Keuchel said. “It’s the big dog.” Keuchel had publicly expressed his disappointment with his front office’s inaction at the non-waiver trade deadline a month earlier, to encourage it to keep hunting. Now the big dog–that’s Jim Crane, the Astros’ owner–was telling him that they were c...

Taylor Swift Unveils New Song, "Gorgeous": Listen @ARTISTdirect
