As previewed, here’s Game’s official Jay-Z diss. A waste of a hot beat, with "I made something outta nothing like MacGuyver" as the most quotable line. Well, sort of. "Bullshit plus spoken word" is the most unintentionally quotable line, considering the minute of unaccompanied, uninspired invective that follows the song. Game is already backing down, clarifying that he didn’t "mean to take a shot" at Beyonce. Like an apology for a mis-spotted artillery barrage in the midst of a Helmand River Valley offensive, it’s unclear if anyone will find that persuasive.
So the debate: should Jay-Z (and/or, for that matter, Kanye West, whose girlfriend Game calls a ho) respond? Or should he take Napoleon’s advice and refrain from getting in the way of his enemy’s unforced errors?

The Game is like Shane Spencer(You remember him, don’t you? .. being a Yankee fan) to Jay-Z’s Derek Jeter. Why should Jay-Z(or Kanye) even bother with a response?
Speaking of Shane Spencer, do you remember Kevin Maas? Or was that before your time?
I remember Shane for sure; Kevin Maas is ringing the faintest of bells for me though.
Maas came up during the second half of the 1990 season. If you remember, he began his MLB career by hitting HR’s at a Ruthian(or McGwire) like pace. It turned out that he was just a half season wonder. Come 1991, he cooled off considerably and was just an average power hitter at best. And a few years after that, he was out of baseball because he had no position and he didn’t produce enough to DH.
