The boos were thunderous…
Sep 9th 2005RavenPro America
While Michael is off in the mountains for a couple days of much deserved R & R (rest and relaxation) I did my own R & R (roaring and ripping) last night at the Patriots vs. Raiders game in Foxborough MA. The first game is always a wild event and the fans up here go crazy…that being said, none of us were prepared to hear that evil, vile miserable Kanye West do a “show”…via a beamed in video. Many of us, maybe three quarters of Gillette Stadium went into an all out uproar and BOOED the hell of it him. I used my bullhorn as did everyone else around me. There was a lot of (middle) finger pointing going on too, I will admit.
Said Mr. West last week (about relief efforts and New Orleans):
“George Bush doesn’t care about black people” and said America is set up “to help the poor, the black people, the less well-off as slow as possible.”
Oh puleeze spare us anymore of this racial rat race game… these punks know no facts and just join the bandwagon of Bush bashing. Using venues such as football games to spread their political views isn’t right. We don’t go to these games to hear this shit. We go to get away from it.
We let him have it last night, and only wished he were there LIVE. I think we would have jumped our seats and rushed the stage.
And we got remotes of rapper Kanye West and pop rockers Maroon 5 from a generic-looking, red-white-and-blue stage in Los Angeles.
Maroon 5 came off vapidly (doing just one song, ”Harder to Breathe”), while West did one tune, ”Heard ‘Em Say.” Yet it was disconcerting to hear his name booed loudly by Patriots fans who evidently didn’t appreciate his nationally televised comment the other night on a Hurricane Katrina benefit that President Bush ”doesn’t care about black people.” The boos were thunderous and lasted for much of his number.
When are the Hollywood hot heads going to get over themselves? How loud does the *booing* have to get?
