Rapper Drake is from Canada. He’s a superstar, so it makes sense that the NHL would tap him to perform during their All-Star game… I guess. Honestly, I wouldn’t have imagined that there were a number of hip-hop loving hockey fans. Apparently I was off the mark with that line of thinking.
Check out Drake’s performance of Headlines and he even hits up the locker room to interact with a few of the All-stars.

Floyd Mayweather, Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao. Whose isn’t hoping that fight becomes a reality. Apparently Floyd is just as frustrated about the lack of movement on it as we are. Since his 90-day jail vacation has been pushed back to begin in June, Mayweather decided that Twitter was the perfect place to let Pac and fans know that he’s not ducking this fight.

Have no fear LA Galaxy fans, David Beckham has decided there’s no place like LA! The futbol star has decided to bypass an offer from the French club, Paris Saint-Germain and re-up with the Galaxy. The motivating factor? Becks didn’t want to uproot his family from America. Details of a new deal should be worked out in the next week or so. His last deal was for 5 years and paid $6.5 Million a year.

Thursday was a great day for LA Sports teams- well, minus that whole botched Chris Paul trade, the NBA better make it right!! Former St. Louis Cardinal and 3-time MVP award winner, Albert Pujols signed with the Anaheim Angels of Los Angeles (or however it’s phrased now, I’m confused at this point) for 10 years- $250 Million. The Angels also signed CJ Wilson (formerly of the Texas Rangers) to a 5 year $77 Million dollar deal. The Angles have to keep up with the Dodgers, it IS Hollywood after all. The Angels want to keep the baseball spotlight focused on them.
