I’m not sure how old this video of LaDainian Tomlinson teaching the “Electric Glide” is but judging by LT’s suit I’ll say it was shot when Miami Vice was popular.. He’s showing better moves than Donovan McNabb’s air guitar dance although that’s not saying much. Maybe this is Tomlinson’s way of showing NFL GM’s he still has some juice in his legs.

Black Enterprise magazine has broken out it’s America’s Most Powerful Players Under 40 list for 2007. By players BE doesn’t mean athletes although several athletes made the list. This is the criteria for choosing the 65 person group:

“These celebrities have shrewdly leveraged their fame to build multimillion-dollar empires that will sustain them beyond their careers in sports and entertainment.”

These are Black Enterprise’s most powerful American athletes under 40:

• Thierry Henry, Soccer
• Lewis Hamilton, Auto Racing
• Phil Ivey, Poker Player
• LeBron James, Basketball
• LaDainian Tomlinson, Football
• Stevie Williams, Skateboarding
• Venus Williams, Tennis
• Tiger Woods, Golf

I haven’t seen the entire article, so maybe Black Enterprise clears this up, but Thierry Henry is French and Lewis Hamilton is British.. and Hamilton’s a rookie at that. I know he tore up the F1 world this year, it’s just a little early to start dousing him in anointing oil.

As far as the rest of the list, how do you have Venus and not Serena? Venus has the Steve and Barry deal, and Serena has her Aneras clothing line… AND.. The Diesel might be a shadow of Eric Dampier now, but Shaquille O’Neal has parlayed basketball into a soon to be half it’s current size empire.
