I would argue NO ONE in entertainment had a better ages 18 to 30 than Eddie Murphy. He saved SNL, created franchises and became a power broker for Hollywood, putting Black faces in virtually all aspects of production. I think he turned 30 while filming Boomerang.
Eddie Murphy's 6 year run from like 1982 to 1988 is bigger than any other comedian's entire career...SNL star, Raw and Delicious specials, invented the modern buddy cop movie with 48 Hours and followed it up with Beverly Hills Cop 1 and 2 then Coming to America...Be for real

I know why Papa Smurf's hair is white ... Parenting all of those doggone other Smurfs by himself while keeping them safe from their opps had that smurf stressed. I bet he said "Mother-smurfer" fiddy-lebbum times! @Prof_CMCross

Macon’s gonna hit the Big 10 with that Texas Tech Wes Welker/Indiana Antwaan Randle El type action. PlayStation type stuff
If Matt Rhule can't win the Big Ten with a Manhunter at QB he's never going to.

Tom Osborne would be pissed seeing that scrawny-ass O-line Noah Macon had to play behind at his Nebraska high school. That means Noah the Manhunter is probably a 3-star dual-threat QB. Grandma Zoe had all that good tech and couldn't breed O-linemen to help Noah? #Lanterns

Somebody I went to high school with messaged me out of nowhere to thank me for the relationship advice I used to give him and he wanted to invite me to his wedding because his fiancee is the same girl I gave him the advice for

My old sports editor at the job had a saying when an FCS/I-AA team plays a D-2 or NAIA team ... "When you're playing a D-2 or NAIA team, you never know who is getting off of that bus." Don't let the division or designations fool you. Those teams have talent

Growing up in sugar cane country South Louisiana, my brother and I would go into the nearby cane fields and cut down some stalks. Bring those joints back and eat them. My daddy took some stalks and planted them in his garden. He taught us that cane, like bamboo, is a grass.
I love all of my Louisiana family. We used to eat sugarcane like this all the time. Yes, all my family speaks like this in the country. Your heir property can make you a lot of money if you lease it to farmers like him.

John Stewart's mama telling young John that the Guardians sent birds to keep watch ... that line is literally rooted in African and Black American folklore. #Lanterns
