The Game has finally pissed off enough law officials to have his ass thrown in jail for pulling some of his most stupid-ass antics. The rapper, whose real name is Jayceon Taylor, has been sentenced to 60 days in jail after pleading guilty to felony gun charges. The dumb-dummy entered his plea in a Los Angeles courthouse and a judge immediately ordered him to spend 60 days in jail and to carry out 150 hours of community service. The Game faced three counts of making criminal threats and possessing a firearm in a school zone during a fight in the middle of a basketball game last year (2007). Two charges were dropped as part of a plea agreement. The rapper, who was also placed on three years probation, has until March 3, 2008 to turn himself into authorities to begin his sentence, reports TMZ.com.Last week, The Game claimed he planned to plead guilty to save the expense of a lengthy trial that could put him behind bars for five years. He said, "The crazy part about this is that I've had guns before in my life. But this time I didn't have a gun. Because one person said I had a gun and coaxed his homies into saying that I had a gun, I'm in a predicament where I'm asking, 'Do I want to spend another million dollars to fight this trial, so who knows what jury's gonna come in and say I'm guilty? Or do I want to save my money, go sit down for four months and accept this felony they're trying to give me for no reason?'"
Mmmmm-hmmm.
