what's next....gucci mane on the view...jeezy on the 900 club?

so if you didn't know, lil wayne "mr. every top 40 single" himself was on espn. i guess being on every top ten video show wasn't enough. funny thing is, he was sober, and was pretty articulate for somebody who said, "whodatwannadodatwhonoodlechoodleswallow". but why was he on espn?!?! did he get a broadcasting degree in between touring, or did he have a stint in professional sports that i didn't know of. someone enlighten me please
