LIL WAYNE FACES UP TO 15 YEARS IN PRISON IF CONVICTED

A Manhattan judge shot down rapper Lil" Wayne"s bid to toss a gun case lodged against him - and instead set a trial date.

Defense lawyer Stacey Richman tried to quash the July 2007 arrest, claiming a cop lied about smelling marijuana wafting out of the Grammy winner"s tour bus and used it as an excuse to board.

"The motion is denied," Supreme Court Justice Charles Solomon told the 26-year-old star, whose real name is Dwayne Carter, in court on Tuesday.

The hugely popular "Lollipop" singer sat in the courtroom in a black leather jacket, blue jeans and black-rimmed glasses as giddy fans whispered about asking for his autograph.

The cop testified at a hearing in Manhattan Supreme Court last fall that after she smelled pot coming from the bus on the upper West Side, she boarded and found a loaded, 9-mm. handgun in the singer"s Louis Vuitton bag.

Richman argued the cop was several blocks away, helping another officer arrest rapper Ja Rule, whose real name is Jeffrey Atkins, also on gun charges.

The hip-hop artists were busted after a Lil" Wayne & Friends concert at Broadway"s Beacon Theater.

Authorities have said the two busts were an hour apart.

The judge set a trial date of April 20, but not before all sides skirmished over conflicts with the star"s upcoming tour schedule.

"I"m not psychic, nor is Mr. Carter," Richman said of Carter"s professional commitments beyond April 12, when his tour ends. Richman asked for time "to consult with the booker."

The judge refused. "I"m not going to take a backseat here," Solomon said before setting a trial date.

Carter faces felony weapons charges and up to 15 years in prison if convicted.

Despite recent set backs on the issue of doping, Americans’ favorite past time, baseball, is marking the start of 2009 season with Spring Training today. To be part of this annual fervor, retailer Upper Playground just launched its own version of MLB, the Upper Playground League Baseball (UPLB). Designed in conjunction with creative agency Morning Breath, the Upper Playground fictional baseball league constitutes urban legends and stereotypes on each of the 12 teams/cities represented. The Chicago Racketeers, harks back to the city’s gangland days. As the major city with the worst crime rate, there is New York Pickpockets. San Francisco Panhandlers for that city’s candor attitude towards homelessness. There is even a team not represented, the Miami Kilos, since illicit drug trade never should be taken lightly. Each is characterized with a dose of cynicism, humor and fun.
Made from 100% wool and through New Era’s 59FIFTY method, the UPLB collection of fitted caps (and coordinating t-shirts) are available now at all Upper Playground retail location and its online store.
