Lil Wayne's 'Green and Yellow' and 4 Other Ill-Advised Super Bowl Songs [VIDEOS]
By David Knowles - AOL NewsMake. It. Stop. With the release of "Green and Yellow," rapper Lil Wayne has entered a dubious pool of songwriters who have crafted Super Bowl-themed tunes meant to rev up excitement for Sunday's big game. A musical response to Wiz Khalifa's "Black and Yellow," Weezy's freestyle composition is a Packers homage meant to counter Khalifa's Steelers love. But as with most songs inspired by football games, it leaves much to be desired for fans of actual music. Here's Wayne's Wisconsin love fest (which, no surprise, contains some NSFW language): Don't get Surge Desk wrong, we're the ...
Tale of Two Rivalries: Jets-Pats Reality Show Trumps Ravens-Steelers
By Kevin Blackistone - AOL NewsWhen the bamboozlement began is not clear. Maybe it was at the turn of the century, when the Steelers were the last team to beat the Ravens, in a (insert air quote marks) thrilling 9-6 contest, as the Ravens bludgeoned their way to a Super Bowl title. Maybe it was 2004, when the Ravens pinned on the Steelers what became the Steelers' only loss in the regular season. Maybe it was when one-time Steelers' receiver Plaxico Burress and former Ravens' cornerback James Trapp fought on the field in 2002, or when a year later former loudmouth Steelers' linebacker Joey Porter tried to climb aboard ...
Donald Trump's Hair Video + Bee Gees = Monday Night Fever
By Stephanie Stradley - AOL NewsDuring the Jets-Patriots "Monday Night Football" blowout, the broadcast director had a tough task finding entertaining video to show the audience in between Tom Brady touchdown throws. Thankfully, some of that entertainment was Donald Trump's "hair" flapping in the wind during a shot of Trump with Patriots' owner Robert Kraft. The video alone wasn't nearly entertaining enough for the interwebs, so someone decided to put the video to music for your enjoyment. You might not have The Donald's money, but you can be amused by his disco hair for free: Though the Bee Gees goes soothingly well ...
Patriots vs. Chargers Preview, Score and More
By Dennis J. Georgatos - AOL NewsTom Brady and the New England Patriots are taking the league's highest scoring offense on the road for Sunday's matchup in San Diego against the Chargers, who are reeling from losses in three of their last four games. Their last two losses came at the hands of the Raiders and Rams, who had six wins between them last season. The Chargers are bidding for their third consecutive win against the Patriots at home but head into the latest meeting banged up as their schedule really starts to get tough. Meetings with the Tennessee Titans and Houston Texans follow the intraconference matchup with ...
Brett Favre-to-Randy Moss Combo Debuts, Falls Short
By not in system - AOL News
The greatly anticipated debut of Brett Favre-to-Randy Moss displayed firepower late Monday night, but Dwight Lowery returned an interception for a touchdown to seal a Jets victory at the New Meadowlands Stadium, 29-20. ...
Patriots' Rebuilding Effort in Full Swing
By J.J. Cooper - AOL NewsIn trading Randy Moss to the Vikings, Bill Belichick continued to do what he's done for a decade. He'd rather get rid of a player a year too soon rather than a year too late, and he continues to stockpile draft picks at a nearly unprecedented rate. But there seems to be a lot of thought that Belichick is hurting the team's current playoff chances to rebuild the team for the future. That may be true, but the reality is that Belichick was already in rebuilding mode before he traded away Moss. We can't know what the Patriots will get with their 2011 draft haul (two firsts, two seconds, two ...
8 Candidates Who Want to Amend the US Constitution
By David Knowles - AOL News
(Oct. 7) -- Does the U.S. Constitution grant Americans citizens too many rights? That seems to be the conclusion reached by some tea party activists and the candidates they have helped propel to victory. While in years past, a scattered number of political aspirants have spoken about scaling back the Constitution so that it more closely resembles the original version, this year's rise of the tea party has resulted in a slew of candidates who view the revered document as bloated. Surge Desk has a roundup of the politicians who believe that, when it comes to the number of amendments tacked on ...
Pats' Patrick Chung, Rob Ninkovich Steal Show
By not in system - AOL News

Man Tweets Irritations, Receives Free Tickets to Jets-Patriots Game
By Tom Lorenzo - AOL NewsIf only life were so simple and we could just tweet our troubles away. Well, leave it to the fine folks over at Edge to help take the ... edge off. Case in point, Matthew DeCoste of New York City tweeted last weekend that he was irritated he couldn't find tickets to this Sunday's Jets-Patriots game. He added the hashtag "#soirritating," and within a few days Edge had purchased him tickets to the game. It's as simple as that! The anti-irritation campaign kicked off by Edge asks sports fans what irritates them the most. I reached out to DeCoste via e-mail and asked him why he was so irritated ...
'Sparkler Bombs' Poised to Wreak Havoc on 4th of July
By David Knowles - AOL NewsIt's that time of year again, when patriots and pyromaniacs have a convenient excuse to light stuff on fire. The hot new trend in homemade explosives? The "sparkler bomb," an incendiary diversion that has been gaining popularity in recent years. Today's Wall Street Journal describes the basics of sparkler bomb making: assemble hundreds of sparklers, tape them all together, add a fuse, strike a match and kaboom! From the Journal: Sparkler bombs have been around for years, law enforcement officials said. But their popularity has surged recently, largely as a result of the spread of how-to ...
