Everybody is real excited about Barack Obama getting elected and I am too. It already seems like Obama is doing more than Bush is, which is definitely a good sign. It's amazing to see how many people turned out to vote and all the lines they were showing of people waiting to vote that day. It's great that Obama is our next President but I think everyone needs to realize that he can't just come in and start changing everything, so people gotta be patient with him and not be expecting everything at once from him. But no matter what, it definitely seems like Obama is going to change up some things for the better because he's already getting to work on lots of things it seems like and already seems like he is the President.
I had something on Monday with some 5th and 6th graders from the Cabrini Green Tutoring Program. Cabrini Green Tutoring Program has been around for over 40 years and helps kids from Cabrini Green and other places around it. I got my homies Brandon Lloyd and Jason McKie from the Chicago Bears to come out with me and we hung out with the kids at the center for a little, had some food, and played some video games. Gotta throw it up to both Brandon and Jason for agreeing to do this with me and help out a little bit at the program, who were cool enough to let us come through as well. Some of you may know that Brandon is also working on an album and he's already got a track with Bobby Valentino, which has been doing it pretty big, so take a listen for sure.

As for the Bears, they had a rough game against the Titans on Sunday, but we got a big game against the Packers next week and Brandon should be back and so should Kyle Orton. With Orton out there, we could really get that boost on offense that we had before because he's really been throwing the ball well. The big thing we have to do is shut down the passing game though because for the last few games we've been giving up pass yards which is probably why we're losing some games.
