To commemorate the beginning of the NBA Playoffs aka the best time of the year…

For all you non-believers, this is why we are fans:

where amazing happens

If you missed the opening ceremony for the Winter Olympics, here are some photos (30 to be exact) that recount Friday night’s spectacle in Vancouver. As usual, click to enlarge the images.

The worst dunk contest ever.

Don’t believe me? Watch the dunks for yourself, chump.

Superbowl Commercials 2010 (SB XLIV)

My top 5 consist of commercials that either made me laugh, think, or just respect the amount of money/effort involved.

Here we go.

#5: Betty White Playing Football Ball

It must’ve taken quite a bit to get this former Golden Girl out of her rocking chair and onto a football field.

#4: Google

All around solid ad. And they effectively marketed their product using a minimal amount of resources.

Now for the top 3 commercials

Top 3 Commercials

Congratulations to Chris Johnson as he becomes only the 6th player in NFL history to rush for 2,000 yards in a season. Johnson joined Eric Dickerson, Jamal Lewis, Barry Sanders, Terrell Davis and O.J. Simpson in the 2,000-yard club. The boy is sick. Look below for some highlights of CJ.

In the second quarter, Johnson set the NFL record for yards from scrimmage in a season on a 9-yard pass from Vince Young. That broke Marshall Faulk’s 1999 record and gave Johnson 2,254 yards from scrimmage.

Later in the opening half, he passed Earl Campbell’s franchise record of 1,934 yards rushing set in 1980. He finished the season with 2,006 yards.

Dress the part. Look at this guy…he obviously is all about football (and definitely not grooming). smh. I wonder if he’ll wear a tux to the MVP ceremony.

Ok, first from our beloved Tiger Woods. Text messages were released by RadarOnline today claiming that Tiger sexted some girl named Jaimee Grubbs saying, among other things:

“I will wear you out…when was the last time  you got (bleeped)?”

Atleast he kept it “trilla” a la Rick Ross (“pu$$ies dont get pu$$y”)

Now for Ron Artest. He told the Sporting News:

“I used to drink Hennessy … at halftime.”

Then  explained further… “I (kept it) in my locker. I’d just walk to the liquor store (near the stadium) and get it.”

What’s happening people??? Keep it together out there!
