New Orleans native and multi-platinum rapper Lil' Wayne will be pulling against his hometown team Sunday during the NFC Championship Game against the Minnesota Vikings. Weezy, it turns out, is a big Brett Favre fan, according to an interview he did with MTV.
"I'm rooting for Brett because I'm a diehard," he told the music video channel that rarely plays music videos on Thursday. Lil' Wayne has appeared on the ESPN2 show "First Take" a few times to offer sports analysis. His breakdown of Sunday's tilt, according to the MTV interview: "I believe the Vikings will win because of the running attack. The Saints give up about 150 rushing yards a game, and the Vikings have arguably the best running back in the game [Adrian Peterson]. ... I believe the Vikings defense will frustrate [Drew] Brees."
Let's hope Thursday's comments about the Saints-Vikes game was just another example of Lil' Wayne's bad judgement; the rap artist is scheduled to be sentenced next month on a weapons charge and will likely receive a one-year "go to jail" card.

Shotgun, I'm as much a diehard as anyone and I don't like Lil Wayne at all, but check your spelling and grammar, not to mention your CAPS key, before you call someone a "dumbass."

David Calhoun and Elizabeth “EB” Brooks are the first two employees of Lafayette Central Park Inc., the nonprofit charged with turning Lafayette Consolidated Government’s 100-acre Johnston Street Horse Farm property into a passive public park. Calhoun was named executive director, and Brooks is director of planning and design.
Is it a crime for citizens to photograph, video, or take notes of a police officer in the line of duty, or a right protected by the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution? Locally, such activity, as witnessed recently, will at the very least result in a night spent behind bars.
At Thursday's State of the Economy luncheon, LEDA President and CEO Gregg Gothreaux said PXP has already quietly hired 180 people for its Broussard expansion.
There will soon be a whole lot of shakin’ going on at Benny’s Sportshack Supplement Depot, a new concept by Opelousas native Benny Nele. Located at 2002 Johnston St., the supplement shop, smoothie bar and café, featuring hot off the press paninis and wraps, plans to open in late May.
This year’s Cool Town issue is all about people who are not native to South Louisiana but made a conscious decision to be here, to be among us, to participate in our culture and contribute to it.
A shelved ordinance transferring $200,000 from a northside drainage project to a south Lafayette development may not break any laws, but it stinks to high heaven.
An effort to restore a shuttered dancehall and document other vacant or razed honky-tonks could serve as a model for saving an endangered species of entertainment.
Lafayette’s gene pool has been host to a long line of eccentric characters who have blurred the lines between crazy, genius, disturbed and curiously entertaining.
Get thee to the hoosegow already, Lil' Wayne!
