Katy Perry : Teenage Dream
For an album that was touted as the cementing of Katy Perry’s abilities as a credible singer/songwriter, Teenage Dream sure missed the mark. It’s bubblegum pop at its most extreme (read: cotton candy-scented liner notes!), and most of the lyrics are about as trite and non-poetic as those on a[Read More…]

American Football Conference – North
Baltimore Ravens: In case someone out there didn’t take notice, Ray Rice is a legitimate beast; the addition of star wideout Anquan Boldin will give Joe Flacco a fully loaded arsenal of receivers; and Ray Lewis still eats people, so that has to be taken into account. This team is[Read More…]
