Was Trapboy Freddy the Victim of Excessive DPD Force? That’s what the Young Thug-cosigned rapper is saying. Tim was also wondering.

UNT Makes Third Consecutive Bowl Game. The Mean Green is (are?) set to play Utah State in the New Mexico Bowl on December 15, and now that I type all that out, I don’t know. Maybe it’s all made up. Utah State? New Mexico Bowl? December? Kind of a stretch, you ask me.

Good Christian Bitches Getting Adapted For TV Again. This news is like four days old but I don’t recall hearing about Kim Gatlin’s book getting the TV treatment again, this time on The CW. They are keeping the actual title.
