    Yes I know what T-mac says, but still he didn't get voted in I don't care about all these conspiracy theories.

    Kimbo Slice was once homeless, but made his way to college so I'm guessing he is smarter than people think.

    Never judge a book by its cover.

    Haven't followed the thread, but LiL Wayne most certainly wrote that. If you follow his blogs he talks about how people always question him about it and yes, it's really him. Just because he's a rapper doesn't mean he can't write "coherent" :rolleyes:

    Not making a case for Weezy F being intelligent at all. You can still put words on paper especially if you have taken any kind of formal education, even if you are an idiot. Being able to contruct a sentence is something you have to do to get by in college.

    I'm sure he has an editor as well. A very good editor.

    my exact sentiments, dude can't even speak straight let alone write anything with proper grammar and punctuation.

    of course, based on some of the things I have read in the past many rappers are really nerds at heart and much smarter than they let on, they just talk 'slang' to sell records and put on an image that is marketable.

    well, i have listened to several wayne's interview. sometimes he sounds incoherent and i believe he is high during those times, and other times, he sounds intelligent and makes sense.

    I'm sure he wrote that but also sure he has an editor.

    There is no way ESPN will let an article get on their website without editing it for content and grammar. Also, im sure lil wayne did not initially say Rafer made "an inappropriate gesture", he more than likely was more explicit with and it go edited out.

    Also, just cos a person is a rapper or an athlete, doesn't mean they are dumb.
    And just cos a person went to school and even graduate school, does not mean they are smart

    Lol at people using Lil Wayne's time at u of h as an excuse to say he was smart.
    Dude barely showed up to class, after a while, we assumed he was taking private classes to avoid the fan attention.

    all this talk of Lil Wayne going to college, but most of you forget the fact that UH is actually Cougar High.

    Dude says we got into the scuffle with the Suns because Artest is on our team now?!? Come on, Ron had nothing to do with that, that was all Rafer and Matt Barnes....... let's not forget Rafer has a history of getting in people's grills? Right, Sasha Vojacic?
