Yesterday some of hip-hop's elite gathered in Atlanta for the taping of the 2012 BET Awards. Unsurprisingly an array of fresh kicks were on display and we're here to catch you up. One of the best sneaker apperances belonged to Wale as he debuted the Tiger Stripe Nike Hyperposite but we couldn't overlook 2 Chainz in the Yeezy 2, Fat Joe sporting the Olive Jordan 5, Unkle Luke and Rakim in white Air Force 1's, Wiz Khalifa rocking Chuck Taylors and TI in both the Golden Moments Jordan 7 and Black Cement Air Jordan 4. Click through all the pics and let us know who you think had the best kicks of the night.

Nike+ GPS recorded logenr distances than my actual route. I have a feeling it used the accelerometer instead of GPS. Does Nike+ GPS use the accelerometer or GPS? I've tried Run Keeper and Logyourrun. They too recorder logenr distances than the actual. But Nike+ was off by a large distance. 4.1km for an actual 2.8km! You can imagine that my pace was very optimistic and tiring!Is there a way to calibrate the app? Or turn of accelerometer?

Some people laenmt that the insurgents have no charismatic leader to rally them and organise. True. I second your observance, and interestingly enough, the same was the case in Tunisia and Egypt. No leader . Democracy. There are people claiming that this is weakness, I think in contrary it is a strength. And it proves many assumptions wrong.

Brant, thanks for the apgoloy but seriously, we aren't all that disappointed. I mean we were for a few minutes as we realized we'd all been tricked, and we thought it was pretty lame, but we come to the Flash games because we really love the FLASH. The guys on the floor played well and with such heart, and Brad and his staff did a fantastic job at keeping them in the game. There certainly was no disappointment at all in what we paid to go see, you know?By the way, from top to bottom, everyone in your organization is just so nice. We really like what you are doing. It is just a shame that this well intended all in good fun thing didn't come off as it was meant to, because it overshadowed a GREAT game.At any rate, thanks a LOT for the comment.You are a good man and definitely have my respect.
