Former Chicago Bears running back Cedric Benson got revenge on the team that let him go in the best possible way. Benson amassed 189 yards rushing and led his new team, the Cincinnati Bengals, to a 45-10 rout over the visiting Bears on Sunday. Carson Palmer threw for five touchdowns with no interceptions in the blowout victory. Cincinnati improved to 5-2 with the win while Chicago dropped to 3-3 on the NFL season.

The Bengals also made short work of the NFL pointspread, easily covering as +1′ home underdogs. Cincinnati improved to 4-3 against the number while Chicago evened their ATS mark at 3-3. The 55 combined points sailed OVER the posted total of 42′. The Bengals have gone OVER in four of seven games this year while the Bears evened their NFL totals mark at 3-3.

A smug Benson described his feelings after the win:

“Everybody knew it was going to be an emotional day. Everybody knew. What a wonderful day and a wonderful thing, to go out there and strut your stuff.”

Despite the evidence to the contrary, Benson downplayed the motive of revenge:

By Jay Armstrong on Wednesday, June 30, 2010
Filled Under: Entertainment

Released in two thousand six, the departed is one of the conventional mafia police war movies, but this one has a twist. The story is based on the rivalry between the Irish American mafias and the police and this time there are actually two agents who are busy in double crossing their organizations. One does it for the bad guys and the other for the good ones.

Briefly the story is a summation of action packed drama and thrilling sequences that is usually a part of every police and mafia box office release. The difference is created by the induction of two double agents within the movie plot of which one works for the cops and the other is cop but works for the rivals and criminals. The story line of this movie renders a lot of sequences in which you can see some genuine human reactions to the art of deception and betrayal.

Young Billy is a fresh Police graduate and his connection with the Irish underworld in the US makes him one of the best candidates to spy on the mafia. He quickly gains trust of the mafia heads and lands in the middle of all the criminal action planning and doings and hence proves to be a vital factor is sabotaging most of them.

MMA Flashback: Bobby Lashley Mauls Mike Cook At Maximum Fighting 21

By Ross Everett on Tuesday, June 29, 2010
Filled Under: Entertainment

Here’s a word of advice to future opponents of Bobby Lashley–don’t make fun of his background in professional wrestling. Mike Cook found that out the hard way in the co-main event of the Maximum Fighting Championships MFC 21: Hard Knocks event. After spending the run up to fight week making fun of Lashley’s tenure in the WWE, Cook lasted a mere :24 seconds before being choked unconscious.

In prefight interviews, Cook had suggested that Lashley would soil himself once he entered the ring (though in not so erudite terms). That clearly incensed the massive 64 250 pound Lashley, who despite his inexperience in MMA is hardly the sort of individual prone to losing bowel control at the prospect of a fight.

Even after the opening bell rang, Cooks arrogant approach to the fight continued as he immediately clinched with his opponent as if he had no regard whatsoever for Lashley’s strength. Lashley immediately locked in a guillotine choke and basically yanked Cook down to the mat by his head. Once on the canvas, Lashley cinched it in deeper as Cook flopped around”partially in an effort to escape, partially in an involuntary muscle reaction as he sunk into unconsciousness.

Understand Illegal Movie Download Problems

It won’t take too much effort to find a source of illegal movie downloads on the web these days and, it can quite often seem as everybody is at it. However, though access to free movies may sound good, it is illegal and, quite apart from that, there are a number of other reasons why it may not be such a hot idea.

Many people bemoan that cost of having to rent or purchase a move. Equally, many complain about the cost of going to the theater to see the latest releases. However, it is important to remember that these guys; the studios, actors, film crew and so on are doing a job, like we all do. So though it may not seem as such, it is tantamount to stealing from somebody’s pocket.

Then there are the people behind these movies; they do profit from the crime. Though you may get the movie for free, they will be making a buck somewhere and, this money will likely finance crimes such as drug trafficking, child prostitution and international terrorism.

The Last Dragon is a film that was produced by Motown Records in the mid eighties as a sort of a Kung Fu comedy flick. It was really meant to promote some music from the company like Oh Sheila, but the flick has actually stood the test of time as one of the all time must download movies of the eighties. It’s a lot of fun, it’s kind of corny, and it works as an action movie.

Throughout his adventures, he also has to keep his cool and composure while dealing with his rival, Sho’Nuff, who’s always trying to get a rise out of him.

A Quick Review Of The Movie Fresh

By Terry Hawkins on Tuesday, June 15, 2010
Filled Under: Entertainment

Writer director Boaz Yakin has had an interesting career in Hollywood. He’s always been, primarily, a write for hire. He has had very few personal projects, mainly sticking to studio work like Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights. Most of his work is… Let’s be honest, mediocre and forgettable. It’s not his fault, it’s just that these are the dull projects they give him to work with. So what is one of his movies doing on a review labeled “must see movie downloads”?

This movie came after Boaz Yakin’s self imposed exile. At a certain point, he became disillusioned with the film industry and declared that he would be taking a hiatus from writing, at least until he felt he had something important to say. The result was a movie that truly does make a powerful statement.

Fresh is the name of the young hero of the movie, a child who works as a drug mule for various dealers and scumbags around the city. He makes around twenty to fifty bucks per run, and saves it all up in a coffee can while his dealers have assumed he’s been spending it on comic books and candy bars. What exactly is he saving it for? Well, you’ll find out, and you’ll be honestly shocked and surprised at exactly how deep his plans really go.
