While flipping through baseball games this weekend, I caught a glimpse of rapper Ice Cube sporting a curly W hat. You guys know Ice Cube right, the guy from the Friday and Are We There Yet movies. Anyway, I thought it was pretty cool. It seems the Nationals have fans in high places. I did a little digging and found that Ice Cube not only loves his Nats hat, but he wears it a lot. He even wore it for an album covershot! He seems to have a jersey also, which he wore during a performance here. Check out more evidence here, here and here. Rumor has it that Ice Cube’s favorite player is Dmitri Young. Hmm maybe we will see Ice Cube at Nats Park sometime soon…

Sweet. I was just thinking during Balester’s start that when he has the change and curve working he’s a brotha that’ll smother yo’ mother and make ya sister think I love her.
I have it on excellent evidence that JimBo’s favorite track is Express Yourself.

That’s awesome Steve! We were kinda thinking that Jim’s favorite song might be I Believe In Miracles.

I think it is probably “It’s All About Me”

Cool album cover photo! Maybe Ice Cube has a thing for Washington teams. Didn’t he wear a Redskin’s jersey in his movie “Are We There Yet?”

Ice Cube along with many other rappers wear the hat not as a fan of the nationals but because of the “W” that they wear to represent the “West Side” meaning that they are West Coast rappers!
