"PATRIOTS GO 16-0 BEATING GIANTS 38-35"
By Barry Wilner
With one mighty heave, Tom Brady and Randy Moss took care of the record books. Now it's down to business for the unbeaten New England Patriots: stamping themselves as the greatest team in NFL history.
The Patriots completed a perfect if somewhat joyless journey through the regular season Saturday night, finishing with a remarkable 16-0 record following a thrilling 38-35 comeback victory over the New York Giants.
New England became the first NFL team since the 1972 Dolphins to win every game on the schedule, and that one was only 14-0. This victory required a comeback from a 12-point deficit engineered by the brilliant Brady, and smashed the Patriots' league mark for consecutive victories.
"Going undefeated during the regular season is a remarkable achievement," 1972 Dolphins coach Don Shula said. "I know firsthand how difficult it is to win every game, and just as we did in 1972, the Patriots have done a great job concentrating on each week's opponent and not letting any other distractions interrupt that focus. If they go on to complete an undefeated season, I will be the first to congratulate Coach Belichick and the Patriot organization."(continue)
"WHAT'S HOT? - ADAPT ADVANCEMENT COOPERATIVE"

It contains the concept to "recognize and represent the ideas of positive change and personal advancement." On top of that, the creator has a great passion for music, which brings out the aesthetics of urban lifestyle and creative designs as we can see on several shirts.

"BELOW THE HEAVENS BY BLU & EXILE LOOKING TO BE A HOT ALBUM"
One album that's a sure banger throughout the underground community right now has to be the Blu & Exile album Below the Heavens and it should be. I got the album at the end of last month after all the hype and checked it out. I was expecting some crazy beats and even crazier flows, but when I listened to the album all I heard was this guy who kind of looked like Ludacris spitting on some alright beats with a sh!tload of scratching. My rating would not even have been 3 stars.
I set the album aside and listened to some other stuff and recently I listened to the album again and my opinion flipped completely. Now this lyricist has some flow and the beats are so mellow and chill that I couldn't help but to dim the lights, sit back, and vibe out to them. Blu's flow is amazing and different, I never have heard anything like it and it reminded me of all the hype Mike Jones got when he first came out because of his different flow, even though Mike Jones sucks.
I was familiar with Exile from his album last year, Dirty Science, which had the tracks "Time Has Come" with Slum Village and "Tell You" featuring Blu and Aloe Blacc. I thought the album was bad at first because I was expecting too much but now that I listened to it again with an open mind I would say it is definitely one of the best albums of 2007 by far. I think Blu & Exile and Cunninglyguists had the best album this year as far as underground rap goes. The album is definitely worth checking out and copping. Blu & Exile are putting L.A. back on the map for underground rap and they should definitely keep it up.
