The Pac-man basically says, Noooo. My relative is gay. Yet Manny Pacquiao is still banned from The Grove. What’s next in this he said / he said saga?

Yes, he’s a conservative guy who beats people down for sport. He’s the best and he’s the champ but in a liberal area of LA, and especially in the mid LA area, he’s outnumbered by gays and lesbians. His anti Gay Marriage quotes aren’t helping him at all.

New York Knicks player Jeremy Lin’s rise was guaranteed to eventually incite hate from both teams. It should come as no shock then that boxer Floyd Mayweather voiced his own criticisms of the Point Guard on the Twittersphere.

It’s safe to say, her response wasn’t met with much praise and got to a point where she locked her Twitter account. She delivered a not so sincere apologized on her blog, all the while defending her inflammatory remarks. She deleted the apology. In its place stands a seemingly more sincere one written by a third party explaining that she suffers from a psychotic episode and is undergoing treatment at a hospital. Whether or not this was the subtle work of a hacker is yet to be revealed. However a closer inspection of her blog reveals that she identifies as Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu, and Humanist. With a synchronicity like that, my bet’s on insanity.
