D-Wade Plays 1-on-5

Dwyane Wade over the weekend scored his 10,000 point in his NBA career, making him the 43rd player in league history to reach that plateau. He celebrated by taking on all 5 Chicago Bull s and making them look foolish.

This is How You Celebrate Scoring

I don’t have any idea where this is from, who is playing or anything else that would help clarify this clip, but all I know is that this is an excellent way to celebrate scoring a goal. It’s just a shame no one was there to see it.

At Least There’s SOME Good News in Buffalo

Buffalo Bills fans have lived through bad season after bad season, their heyday at the early 90s is a football lifetime away but all is not lost for Buffalonians, at least arrests at the game are down! As this headline from the Buffalo News announces:

Buffalo Lousy GameCan’t argue with that! After only 14 arrests at the game the local police chief, Andrew Benz said “That’s about half than what it’s been running. I don’t know what to tell you.”

Just because their team is mired in abject wretchedness doesn’t mean the fans aren’t still clever. Take Bryan Bendo,Steven Henry and James Hester, three Canadians who “borrowed” a golf cart and rode it to the gate. A Bills employee had reported the theft of the cart and all three were arrested after rolling up to gate 1. That’s some balls there.

Hey, hang in there Buffalo, at least you still have… um… MTV filmed that shitty Frats and Sororities show there…

Need to Save a Raider Fan From the Black Hole?

You have to love local advertising, usually it looks like it is filmed on a household camcorder from 1996 with a script that was written by the 3rd graders of Ms. Sybil’s class but this ad from before the Chargers/Raiders game this past Sunday is simply too good to pass up. Sure, the imagery is more than a bit repetitive but the end tag-line more than makes up for it.

After all, what group of fans needs bail bondsmen more often than Raiders fans?

Some Auto Erotica — Don’t Choke!

Now I’m not much of a car guy, my last car was a Corolla after all, but for those of you out there who are into this sort of thing, here is some incredible hot car porn for you. These are some super-luxury private garages and exotic car collections that’ll make even someone not that into cars drool with envy and desire. If someone would just give me a couple million bucks I could make one of these garages and I promise I’ll take pictures of it for you guys to enjoy as I fill it with sweet rides. The line to give me money forms to the right.

I must say that these all-glass ones where the car is parked in the living room are pretty goddamn sick. Although it is a bit depressing when you see cars living in far far far nicer places than where I get to sleep. There’s a TON more photos at the link below if you’re so inclined to torture yourself with things that most people never get a chance to own.4034307626_ef6577595a_o

Manu Ginobli is Batman

You couldn’t script this better; Halloween featured a full slate of games in the NBA, including one between the Spurs and Kings that featured a surprise flying guest, a bat! In the first quarter the flying mammal swooped down onto the court. While the Spurs mascot tried to corral the creature with a net it took the incredibly fast hands of the Spurs’ Manu Ginobili who, with one quick slap, knocked the bat out of the air and to the ground, so it could be removed from the arena.

All Good Goals Require a Little Ass

Bob Errey on the Pittsburgh Penguins telecast wanted to let his viewers know what was needed in order to score a goal. It turns out the answer is “ass.” Now we know!

A-Rod Has Been Choking for YEARS!

This clip astonishes me. No, not that Alex Rodriguez in his final high school playoff game made a truly terrible throw to second, tossing the game away and losing it for his school, but that this is the first time I’ve seen it. I spend a lot of time on the Internet (you might have noticed) and this is the first time I’ve ever come across this moment. Success breeds success, failure, well, failure breeds further failure. Despite his torrid pace early in the playoffs, last night Cliff Lee just baffled A-Rod all game long. Let’s hope to see this trend continue, after all, they say people never really change.

My Favorite from Friday Night Lights

Wednesday night meant the beginning of the 4th season of Friday Night Lights airing on DirecTV. To celebrate one of the absolute best shows on television — that not enough of you are watching — here is the final of my three part series to get you more interested in the show.

FNL isn’t about football, despite the name, it’s about a city in Texas and the people and a community that defines itself by its football team. With excellent acting, particularly from Connie Britton and Kyle Chandler who are one of the best TV couples of all-time, and a strong ensemble cast, the stories are heart-felt, touching, humorous and exciting. And if you do like football, you have never seen more come-from-behind victories like Dillon High has. This show is phenomenal, every single person I have introduced it to has fallen in love with it, you will too. All you need is a desire to see quality television and everything else will fall into place.

Minka Kelly plays the role of Lyla Garrity, the former head cheerleader, super smart girl-you-always-wanted-to-be-with-but-is-always-with-someone-far-far-far-bigger-than-you. Sure, she’s not perfect, she cheated on her newly paralyzed boyfriend with his best friend in the first season, but she was only doing it out of grief and you know how that goes. Regardless, she’s so smoking hot that I can even overlook the fact that Minka is dating Derek Jeter currently. Or that she hasn’t returned any of my phone calls, replied to any of my letters and seems to have ignored all those carrier pigeons I sent her way. Sigh. So incredibly hot.

The Best Hockey Goal You’ll See All Week

Back after missing 5 games with a high ankle strain, in overtime Cal Clutterbuck of the Minnesota Wild battled in front of the net, jockeying for position. His team drives towards the net, the first shot clangs off the posts, then the REBOUND shot hits the post and there’s a fortuitous bounce in front of the net. Clutterbuck reached out and with a diving effort manages to score the overtime winning in thrilling fashion. HOCKEY SON!

Almost Hooker Gets Her Own Happy Ending, World Series Tickets

102709_Susan_Finkelstein_01.jpgWho knew that offering to be “creative” in payment (wink, wink) in a Craigslist ad could lead to a happy ending!Suzanne Finkelstein, the married self-described “desperate buxom blonde” who was willing to do anything for World Series tickets received a ton of notoriety after her story surfaced.

Finkelstein insisted that she wasn’t pimping herself out but rather that “I was hoping maybe I could get a cheaper price flirting with him. You know, batting my eyes. It’s not unheard of.”

The local Bensalem Police even thoughtfully “sent out the good-looking, blonde, kind of Marine guy,” she said, once he (according to her) brought up sex in exchange for the tickets she was arrested. The story ends well though because a local radio show and car dealership are giving her free tickets to an upcoming game. I didn’t realize that all I need to do to get free tickets to an event is first get arrested for prostitution. Looks like I WILL be making that Itzhak Perlman concert after all!
