Apollo Nida Sentenced to Eight Years in Prison For Bank Fraud and Identity Theft

Apollo Nida faced reality today July 8th as a Fulton county Judge sentenced him to serve 8 years in prison for bank fraud and identity theft. Word on the curb is Apollo caught a huge break for “Singing like a Canary” aka SNITCHING per our friends of the family at TMZ. Nida could have been facing 30 years in prison as the maximum as this was not his first offense. TMZ notes:

Nida — who appears on “Real Housewives of Atlanta” with wife Phaedra Parks — was just sentenced to 8 years in federal prison for cashing stolen checks and laundering more than $2.3 mil through phony bank accounts.

The judge who sentenced him today in a Georgia court said Nida did indeed cooperate with federal investigators by spilling criminal secrets … and that’s why he got leniency.

The authorities definitely Nida’s attorney Thomas Bever attempted to get the sentence reduced due to Nida poor upbringing but Pannell felt that since Apollo is 35 years old (a grown Man) this was not a factor. According to our friends over at the AJC:

GRUDGE MATCH Synopsis:

Two retired boxers (Sylvester Stallone and Robert De Niro) decide to settle a long-standing beef by heading back into the ring in this sports comedy from director Peter Segal. Back in the day, Billy “The Kid” McDonnen (De Niro) and Henry “Razor” Sharp (Stallone) were the two biggest bruisers in the Pittsburgh boxing scene. Their fierce rivalry drawing nationwide attention, Razor and The Kid were deadlocked for the title of overall champion when the former announced his retirement just before the decisive 1983 match that would have determined the supreme champion. Three decades later, enterprising boxing promoter Dante Slate Jr. (Kevin Hart) lures the aging pugilists back into the ring for the fight that everyone has been waiting for. Meanwhile, when Razor and The Kid see each other for the first time in 30 years, the cameras are rolling as tempers suddenly flare. In no time that unscheduled scuffle goes viral, prompting both fighters to resume their intensive training in a bid to be the one who delivers the knockout blow during the highly anticipated bout. Alan Arkin, Kim Basinger and Jon Bernthal also costar.

Universal Sports Ent Client Philadelphia Eagle Vinny Curry Makes USA Today News

How often does a player tell an umpire he’s doing a good job?

Hey when you live in the city of Brotherly Love “Philadelphia” What else is to be expected? Vinny Curry defensive end for the Philadelphia Eagles consistently makes National News Coverage Every Single Week! For a 2nd round draft pick his 2nd year in the league I would definitely say this is a man who has a public relations team and agency that cares. Check out what USA Today and  Philly.com

That’s a full-on embrace — not one of those weak hand-slap, man-hugs. The umpire tries to keep it professional, like he knows he’ll get downgraded this week if the league sees him hugging players, but you can tell he wants to reciprocate.

Given the NFL’s current safety-at-all-costs climate, a defender who so much as looks shiftily at a quarterback risks getting a 15-yard penalty. So after Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Vinny Curry leveled Green Bay Packers quarterback Scott Tolzien on Sunday, there was a reasonable chance he’d be seeing some yellow laundry decorating the field. When the flag wasn’t thrown, Curry was appreciative to the officials — too appreciative, perhaps, for the umpire’s taste.

Raven Simone Spotted in Atlanta Boo’d UP with HER New Boo Thang!!

Our friends at USA Today posted a pic of Raven Symone and her new BOO

Exactly one month after she applauded the demise of the Defense of Marriage Act — and came out — on Twitter, Raven-Symone has stepped out with her long-rumored, longtime girlfriend.

The former Cosby kid posed for cozy pics with AzMarie Livingston at Ludacris’ Labor Day charity bash in Atlanta. Livingston competed on cycle 18 of America’s Next Top Model.

Raven’s tweet only vaguely hinted at who she was hanging out with: “Atl is poppin all weekend, chillin with #throwbackfriends #NewFriends loving Luda day weekend… Just saw Luda too. pimp, it’s goin down.”

 

Also on hand for a little bball action was Usher, who actually tried to go toe-to-toe against 6 foot 5 Houston Rockets star James Harden!

HA! You should probably pass the rock to AzMarie, Usher! She’s got a full two inches on you so she might be able to get to the hoop a little easier!

LOLz!

Happy to see you all had a fun holiday weekend!!!

When we spoke with Stephen Bishop , he couldn’t say enough great things about Being Mary Jane. He plays Mary Jane’s ex that might still be in love with her.
