The Cash Fever Cured!

If you're not the winner from California, you're probably returning back to work.

You're going to work a few dollars short. The winner(s) of the $1.6 billion Powerball jackpot will have to take a lifetime off. Trust me, the winner of the Powerball will likely have to disappear.

Chino Hill, CA is the first confirmed location for the country's historical jackpot.

The jackpot is huge.

So as we wait for the winner of the jackpot ticket to come forth, many others have their bets on at least getting some of their money back.

So far, the clerk at 7-Eleven in Chino Hills will have a huge bonus for selling the ticket. Probably the company itself will get the bragging rights.

Oh thank heaven for 7-Eleven.

Okay, here's the winning Powerball numbers.

St. Louis Loses The Rams! San Diego May Lose The Chargers!

Los Angeles Rams logo
Los Angeles will get a football team. They will play in Inglewood, CA

It comes as no surprise that St. Louis isn't happy about this development. Mayor Francis Slay is really pissed about the NFL's decision to have the city's professional football team move back to Los Angeles. The Gateway to the West hosted the Rams for over 20 years. They had a somewhat good relationship until recently.

This departure stemmed from the city refusing to build a $4 billion dollar stadium. The city cites revenue cost and taxpayers refusal to pass levies to grant the leasing of a stadium.

In unanimous vote of 30-2, the NFL owners decided that time was now for Los Angeles to have a professional team. They decided St. Louis, the Oakland Raiders and San Diego Chargers

The move really shocked the fans and probably many around the St. Louis metro area.

Now the fears of San Diego losing their Chargers and Oakland losing their Raiders happen to surge in the news.
St. Louis was hoping to please the NFL by giving them a riverfront stadium. It failed.
The Los Angeles Times reported that St. Louis business executive Stan Kroenke and Stockbridge Capital Group were partnering up in developing a new NFL stadium on the Inglewood property owned by Kroenke. The project would include an 80,000-seat stadium and a 6,000-seat performance venue, while re-configuring the previously approved Hollywood Park plan for up to 890,000 square feet of retail, 780,000 square feet of office space, 2,500 new residential units, a 300-room hotel and 25 acres of public parks, playgrounds, open space and pedestrian and bicycle access. The stadium would likely be ready by 2019.

The Rams will relocate to the City of Champions Stadium in Inglewood, California.

In lieu of this, St. Louis countered with a stadium plan for the north riverfront area of downtown, with the hope of keeping the Rams franchise in the city. On February 24, 2015, the Inglewood City Council approved the stadium and the initiative with construction on the stadium planned to begin in December 2015.

The day following the conclusion of the 2015 regular season, the Rams, Raiders, and Chargers all filed to relocate to Los Angeles. The same day, the NFL announced that any franchise approved for relocation would need to pay a $550 million relocation fee.

Alabama Cheers While St. Louis Jeers!

The win.
Congratulations to the University of Alabama Crimson Tide football team on a great victory against the Clemson University Tigers. The team finished the season with a record of 14 wins and 1 loss (14–1 overall, 7–1 in the SEC), as SEC champions and as consensus national champions after they defeated Clemson in the College Football Playoff (CFP) National Championship Game.

In a rallying finish, Alabama managed to beat Clemson on the score of 45-40.

Clemson was ranked #1 after Ohio State took a tumble in the College Football Playoffs.

Alabama tumbled to #12 after a bruising defeat from Ole Miss Rebels. They rallied hard to gain the top tier spot.

When #3 Ohio State fell to #8 Michigan State, it surged Alabama to the #2 spot.

Alabama would crush Michigan State in playoffs.

Many sports analysis had Alabama lock it up but it was going to be a tough fight. The Clemson Tigers gave the Tide a fight.
Big victory for the Tide.
Clemson ends up taking a nosedive throughout the fourth quarter. They managed to catch up in the end but it wasn't enough and Alabama ran a train on them.

Congratulations to Nick Saban and Heinsman Torphy winner Derrick Henry. Also want to say congratulations to the entire team on a great victory for the 2015-16 College Football Championship.

Tuscaloosa, Alabama will have a celebration for the country's number one team. President Barack Obama will host another event for the Tide in the Summer.

Congratulations.

Now onto the bad news. The city of St. Louis lose the Rams.

The NFL approved for the relocation to Los Angeles. Los Angeles is the second largest city in the nation hasn't had a football team in 20 years.

Now the city of St. Louis is steaming mad over the decision.

This will be discussed in the next article.

Now if there's riots in the city of Tuscaloosa or St. Louis, will the junk food media label the rioters a bunch of thugs or looters?

Kendrick Lamar Meets Obama!

President Barack Obama address gun violence with hip-hop star Kendrick Lamar.

The 11 time Grammy nominated rapper/singer Kendrick Lamar got an opportunity to meet President Barack Obama this weekend.

The Compton rapper has been very focused on politics and hasn't endorsed any political candidate for president. He heads to the White House to discuss issues involving gun violence, Black empowerment and the president's favorite song off his platinum selling album.

If these walls could talk...!

"I look at where I'm at today and realize that most of my success is owed to the mentors that was in my life," Lamar says at the opening, playing basketball with a young kid.
Kendrick Lamar and Terry Crews "Hit The Quan" in the "These Walls" video.
"I sat down with President Barack Obama and we shared the same views. Topics concerning the inner cities, the problems, the solutions, and furthermore embracing the youth, both being aware that mentoring saves lives."

To Pimp a Butterfly album is a smash. The rapper released the album in February 2015, and it spawned the hits, "i (Love Myself)", "Alright", and "These Walls".

The president admits that he's a fan of hip-hop and he enjoyed the album. His favorite song off the album was "How Much a Dollar Cost".



Last year, Geraldo Rivera went on this rant about Kendrick Lamar being anti-White and anti-cop with his song.

"This is why I say that hip-hop has done more damage to young African-Americans than racism in recent years. This is exactly the wrong message. And then to conflate what happened in the church in Charleston, South Carolina with the tragic incidents involving excessive use of force by cops is to equate that racist killer with these cops. It's so wrong. It’s so counterproductive. It gives exactly the wrong message." said the agitator.

The rapper responded back to the criticism.

"How can you take a song that's about hope and turn it into hatred?" he said. "The message, the overall message [of  'Alright'], is, 'We gon' be alright.' It's not a message of  'I want to kill people.'"

World News Today congratulates Kendrick Lamar on his success.
