B. Lloyd’s Knee Takes Time To Heal When It Hurts So Much

by Shea Johnson on Wednesday 12 November 2008 at 7:57 pm

Two days after we dared to wonder why Brandon Lloyd was still inactive, and would be ballsy (or unballsy) enough to say he’s waiting to be 100 percent, the Sun-Times is putting it out there: the Bears coaching staff is displeased with Lloyd’s lengthy recovery.

Depending on how much stock you put into the word on the street, Lloyd was ready to play last Sunday versus Tennessee, but instead, was sat by the team as punishment for possessing the pain tolerance of a Laguna Beach actor cast member. (more…)

Where Art Thou, Brandon Lloyd?

Never did I ever think I’d write the following sentence:

B. Lloyd creates a music CD…err…drops an album

While he might look like my emo best friend, Brandon Lloyd is all about the hip hop. And to prove it, he’s dropping an album.

Master of Ceremony is Lloyd’s debut CD. The first single, “She’s All Mine” featuring Bobby Valentino, is already getting radio play and self-admittedly huge…in the locker room.

In fact, some teammates have even bought the single on iTunes. The rest have opted to illegally download it from LimeWire. You know, the economy is down and shit. Players gotta eat.

The only biggest disappointment here is we’ll have to wait until Feb. 2 before we’re treated to waves of sixteen-bar utopias. Until then, make sweet, sweet love to your auditory ossicles.
