Two Russians Too Drunk To Fight
I can only imagine this is what I look like back in my college days after a tough Saturday in the fall.

This has got to be the catch of the year right? Angels outfielder J.B. Shuck sacrificed every one of his limbs in going over the fence and into the stands to rob the Blue Jays Jose Bautista of a home run. Not only does he make the catch but he has the wherewithal to fire the ball back into play to prevent the runner on base from advancing. Sick catch brah!

Very impressive Oregon. You just one upped Bama in terms of ridiculous football facilities. And people want to bitch and complain about the football players not getting enough compensation for their services. Shit. I wish I had a state of the art facility I could use every day in college to prepare me for the next level. On top of that a free education, food, room and board, clothes, women, fans, etc. Yup college football players at Oregon have it rough. Poor slaves.

World's greatest athlete my ass. My 2-year old daughter has a better arm than this "athlete" named Cristiano Ronaldo. Apparently he's some famous soccer playing fairy. And yes I get it soccer players don't use their hands or arms but throwing a baseball is one of the things you have to do in order to survive. It's like the assholes you always hear about drowning at Lake Lanier every summer. If you don't know how to swim why the fuck would you go swimming or near a body of water? Ronaldo only uses his arms when he's doing reach arounds his teammates so why the hell would he be allowed to throw a first pitch at a real sporting event? It just makes no sense. People who can't swim and Ronaldo should be grateful they survived this long because God obviously hates them.

Holy film licking testicle balls. It's like the film gods read my mind and decided to put all of my favorite current actors in one movie. Bradley Cooper? Check. Christian Bale? Check. Amy Adams? Check. The goddess Jennifer Lawrence? Check! Jeremy Renner? Check. Fuck the story I just want to go see Cooper's perm for all it's glistening glory. Add some guns, 70's clothing, and a Scorsese feel to it and I'm sold.

I'm not sure what is more embarrassing for Philadelphia Eagles WR Riley Cooper. Using the N word is obviously very stupid and wrong but we are talking about a guy who plays for the Eagles who also sports a pony tail while taking in Kenny Chesney concerts. Plus he was a teammate with Aaron Hernandez and Tim Tebow at the University of Florida. Poor racist pony tail white receiver who plays in Philly.
Cooper apologized for getting caught using the racist word and now Michael Vick's outstanding citizen brother Marcus has put a bounty on his head. Life should be grand for new coach Chip Kelly. No controversies at all.

With another injury to an Atlanta Braves outfielder rookie Todd Cunningham got called up last night and collected his first career hit in his first career at-bat. When Cunningham isn't rocking line drives to left field he is rocking the mic with his debut song "Rock Yo Jock." It's some sort of rap song about Christians and the birds and the bees and blah blah blah. The rookie needs to stick with baseball. Leave the christian rapping to the head fryers at Chick-Fil-A.

Tiger Woods has nothing on Marlins reliever Chad Qualls in fist pumps. Just pure grace and determination by Qualls. The newest attraction in that monstrosity of a stadium they got in Miami should be Niagara Qualls.

I don't see what the big deal is. This kind of shit happens to me everyday. I have to constantly remind my wife how lucky she is to have won this once in a lifetime prize. For the other 99.9% of dudes out there this must have been unusual. Sort of like someone handing you the winning lottery ticket for no good reason.

All in all I would say it was a just a normal summer weekend for any college student. Except the guy in the pink shirt getting thrown out of an University of Texas frat party doesn't go to school there. In fact he plays for a hated rival. He also owns a Heisman Trophy and comes from an extremely rich family. So while everybody is putting the microscope on Johnny Manziel he is still out living his life. One beer pong, one bong toke at a time.
Winning. Except I'm not sure the Johnny Football nickname is appropriate anymore. Manziel has been all about NOT football since their bowl game when they absolutely trucked the shit out of Oklahoma. He's Johnny Hangover. Johnny Drama. Johnny I might be losing millions in NFL signing bonus money because I can't keep my fucking nose clean.
Whatever. Roll on playa. We are just here to watch the shitshow for all it's glory. It's like watching a real life sequel to The Program and Manziel is doing his best Joe Kane impression.

I seriously want all my news delivered in Taiwanese animation. The comedic level takes it up an extra notch.
With Ryan Braun getting suspended for the rest of the season after lying about his PED use I think it's time for commissioner Bud Selig and the players union to make a huge statement with the latest Alex Rodriguez Biogenesis scandal: lifetime ban. A-Roid is a cheater. He's a disgrace to the game way more than Pete Rose. He has effected games good or bad for numerous seasons and still cheats it everyday. He should no longer have the ability to earn a living off of it. Throw him out. Kick him to the curb. And clean up the sport.

It's the bottom of the ninth inning and the Atlanta Braves are clinging to a one-run lead with runners on first and second. The Mets Justin Turner takes a 1-0 gift of a pitch from closer Craig Kimbrel and rocked it to left center. A sure double off the bat and a winner for the stinkin' Mets. But center fielder Jason Heyward had different plans. In only his fifth game playing center field Heyward saved the game with an unbelievable catch.
Chipper Jones got an interesting response from a bitter Mets fan on Twitter. Chipper's response was classic...

Well if you ever expected a Bama football player to actually attend class then this new football only facilities will no doubt squash those expectations. This is the definition of football factory. Bama just shit all over Oregon in terms of decadence and bravado with their new facility. Am I jealous? Fuck yeah I am. Good luck to the rest of the SEC when trying to get a recruit over Bama. One look inside this place and all the first round draft picks and you can pretty much count Bama as the destination for elite recruits.

Baltimore Orioles slugger Chris Davis joins only Jimmie Foxx and Babe Ruth to hit at least 30 homers, drive in 90 runs, and hit .315 before the All-Star break. It's been a breakout season for Crush and the scary thing is despite the great numbers he still is not the leading MVP candidate. That would be reigning Triple Crown winner Miguel Cabrera. Miggy's stats are even better than last season. The only way Davis wins the MVP is if he keeps up his torrid pace and breaks Roger Maris record. It can be done but I think he will end up in the mid 50s in homer total. A great season no doubt. The more important thing is getting the Orioles back to the playoffs. Davis is doing his part but they need guys like Matt Wieters and Brian Roberts to step up their offensive games while the starting rotation needs to go at least 6 innings deep to give their bullpen some much needed rest.

I thought Johnny Football handled the questions pretty good. Look we all know he got shitfaced Friday night with the Mannings and AJ McCarron. The problem is he is still underage and he can't answer the questions honestly or he will not only get himself in trouble but Peyton and Eli too. He overslept the next day of the camp and was kicked out by Archie Manning. Shit happens especially when you are 20 years old. But I will say the media and more importantly NFL teams have a right to grill Manziel on his partying. If you are going to invest millions in a wildcard you have to do your due diligence. Johnny Football needs to get back on the football field because this whole offseason he has turned himself into Johnny Drama aka Johnny Hangover with all the late night shenanigans. I would probably do the same thing if I was a rock star college QB with a Heisman Trophy in my back pocket. Actually I would do the same thing. But I don't have millions in the bank waiting for me on my first job interview. So maybe just clean it up a little bit Manziel. We all want to see you beat Alabama again. But we also want the drama too. Fuck it just keep being yourself Johnny.
What do you think about Johnny Football and his off the field partying?

Granted New York Mets fans aren't the brightest bunch but I can almost guarantee this would happen in every other baseball city. Hell I didn't even recognize All-Star starter Matt Harvey without the hat and I follow baseball religiously. Just like I'm sure a lot of Cardinals fans wouldn't recognize Adam Wainwright or Braves fans with Kris Medlen. Most Yankees fans would think C.C. Sabathia is the guy who does the weather on NBC's morning show rather than pitch for the pinstripes. But this Jimmy Fallon skit is funny because it shows how clueless we can be even if the guy asking us about Matt Harvey is in fact him. Come to think of it the Mets still play baseball?

Unless we can find some retard who throws it backwards singer Carly Rae Jespen has the worst first pitch ever. My two-year-old is more accurate. Seriously. Michael J. Fox was seen visibly shaking in the Rays crowd no doubt from laughing so hard. Am I right?

The Pounceys have been linked to Hernandez’s off-field activities as police continue to probe Hernandez’s past for clues relating to current murder charges he faces. In 2007, the Gainesville (Fla.) Police Department mentioned the Pounceys in a report after investigating a double shooting. Police wanted to speak with Hernandez about the shooting but he invoked his right to have an attorney present. No charges were ever filed. Hernandez, ex-Jags safety Reggie Nelson, and Mike and Maurkice Pouncey had been in a Gainesville nightclub on the night of the shooting. Hernandez was 17 at the time.

With two outs in the ninth and the tying run at 3rd base Joey Votto stepped to the plate. Votto delivered a crushing blow to straight away center in what appeared to be the game-winner. But Brewer's centerfielder Carlos Gomez had other plans. With a steady pace to the outfield track and a snug lean into the fence Gomez hopped like he was on a small trampoline and took away Votto's majestic shot. No guts. No glory. Brewers win.

Manny Machado just turned 21 on Saturday. He's on pace to beat Earl Webb's record 67 doubles in a season. But the highlight of his season might be this incredibly strong throw across the diamond. Not bad kid. Not bad at all.

Tough news here for the SportsCrack family. The Sopranos was our favorite show back in college. Every Sunday night was must watch TV on HBO with James Gandolfini playing the iconic Tony Soprano. Gandolfini was only 51 years old when he passed yesterday in Italy. RIP big man. You will be missed.

In the immortalized words of Vin Scully: "VIVA PUIG!" The Cuban sensation has taken over the baseball world in his first 4 career games. Los Angeles can't get enough of Viva Puig so we figured a shirt was due. The 5-tool athlete can hit the ball out of the park in all directions, gun out base runners from the warning track, and his all-around hustle has revived a team.
He's the new Bo Jackson. Puig Knows.
Get the Viva Puig Shirt Here!

Courtesy of 680 The Fan's Rob Jenner comes this classic clip called "The Legend of El Oso Blanco." Evan Gattis has already become the man, the myth, and the legend with his 10 homers, beard, rawdogging it with no batting gloves approach to hitting and the way his teammates love him. The White Bear needed a great tribute and now he has one thanks to Jenner. Well done sir. Well done.
PS-I love the little dig they did on Yunel Escobar. Whatever happened to that frosted tip d bag?

I hope the Flyin' Hawaiian is okay after taking this blindsided high five from teammate Koji Uehara. I haven't seen that kind of surprise on a Hawaiian's face since Ben Affleck died in that awful Pearl Harbor movie. I'm kind of disappointed Koji didn't scream "BONSAI!" right before slapping Victorino. You gotta do it to keep up team morale right? It's the American way after all or something like that.
Fun fact: I had no idea Uehara was still in the league. He was one of my favorite Orioles a few years ago because he always seemed like a big team guy whether starting or coming out of the bullpen. But what makes him a legend in Baltimore is he got traded to the Rangers for Tommy Hunter and some 25-year-old slugger Chris Davis. Yes the same Chris Davis who leads the majors in home runs and extra base hits. And now Hunter is the best arm out of the bullpen for the O's. Not a bad trade at all for the Orioles. Laughs maniacally.

Seriously Michael Bourn. I don't think the Triple Crown winner needs any more help. Hey we all fuck up here and there. It's just part of the game. But this was almost up there with Jose Canseco taking a header for a homer in terms of fuck ups. Laugh all you want Bourn but coach Lou Brown is not going to put up with this shit much longer.

He may only be a rookie but there is little doubt El Oso Blanco is a living legend. At this rate I can't wait to see the 30 on 30 special on Evan Gattis. This is getting beyond a Hollywood script. It's almost unfathomable what Gattis has done in the first quarter season in an Atlanta Braves uniform when just 3 years ago he was out of baseball. Gattis was literally living in a van down by the river and now he is hitting Gattis Bombs in clutch situations in the Show.
Buy the original and still the best El Oso Blanco shirt here!

These were the good old days. When everybody was all hoped up on steroids and pitchers weren't afraid to throw inside.
Granted the Orioles Armando Benitez deserved a beating for hitting Tino Martinez intentionally with a straight 98 mph heater to the middle of the 2 and 4 but you don't see brawls like this anymore. The Orioles and Yankees hated each other. There was still bad blood over the whole Jeffrey Shitface kid robbing the Orioles of a playoff victory. Daryl Strawberry was still a cocaine sniffing douche who couldn't land a punch to save his life even when it would have been a sucker one from behind. Tino Martinez had no intention of fighting Benitez (who can blame him and it's only after the benches clear that Tino tries to fight) but it's funny that Bill Nye the Science Guy aka Graeme Lloyd comes all the way from the bullpen to start throwing awful haymakers at Benitez's mug.
Now that I think about it maybe Brady Anderson wasn't on steroids. He's one of the few not even trying to fight. He's calm and collected. Of course so is Rafael Palmeiro and Chad Curtis and we know they were roiders. Robby Alomar didn't even spit on anybody. Hall of Famer Eddie Murray screaming at Strawberry in the dugout is the basically the ending to this classic. It just sucks that it took the Orioles another 15 years to be relevant in the AL East because we could have had some classic showdowns instead of those overhyped ESPN fueled Yankees-Red Sox garbage games.

I think it goes without saying that Johnny Football is living the high life. The Heisman winning QB got to take batting practice yesterday at PetCo Park before doing an impressive impression of his famous Alabama play. Mark Kotsay caught the ball behind his back but that isn't even the story. Kotsay still plays ball? I thought he retired years ago.
By the way the Heisman patch on the right arm is a little over the top right? We get it you won the Heisman. Maybe it's an automatic panty dropper patch. That must be it.

This is what happens when rich white kids have too much to drink. They get smacked around in their loafers and tucked in pink shirts. Thugs.
I might have to attend Steeplechase one of these days. I just can't imagine dressing up like these assholes. This isn't a board meeting you fucking losers. It's a horse race with tailgating. Unless you actually own one of the horses there is no reason to be dressed like Patrick Bateman.

The wall always wins. I'm not sure why Bryce Harper ran into the wall so directly with his face. The warning track is there for a reason. To give you a fucking warning that a metal wall is right in your face. Harper could be seen asking if he made the play. Not exactly Bryce. The Nationals would go on to win the game 6-2 and Bryce will be ok. His dignity not so much.

Good lord. Can you be anymore of a pussy there John Hirschbeck? So what if Bryce Harper disagreed with your bullshit check swing call. You don't throw the guy out of the game. Some of these umpires need to realize that people don't come out and pay good money to watch their fat asses throw out star players for shit like this. If anybody needs to be investigated by Major League Baseball for game fixing it's Hirschbeck. I'm going to say he had big money on the under and/or Pittsburgh Pirates winning and figured the best way to win his bet was by throwing out Bryce in the first inning. Clown move bro!
In my opinion Hirschbeck needs to serve an unpaid suspension for this. I'm not saying the ballplayers should have free reign to shit all over the umpires but to throw out somebody for simply arguing that it was a bad call is not a good reason for an ejection.
What do you think?

Classy HoneyNut Cheerios move by Jordan Crawford. I got $100 that says Melo snaps out of his funk and goes off on the Celtics in Game 6. You don't talk about someone's wife like that. Even if she does taste like HoneyNut Cheerios which are delicious by the way.

This Stanley Cup Playoff promo video brought back a flood of memories. There is no better team sport to watch in person than hockey. It's electric. There is no taking plays off like baseball players do running down the first base line. It's pure grit and determination to get the ultimate prize: Lord Stanley's Cup. When the Atlanta Thrashers moved to Winnipeg because of their dipshit owners and GM I gave up on hockey. I was too pissed off and hurt to even bother watching it anymore. But now after seeing this video it makes me want to watch again despite not having a team allegiance. I got to pick a team to root for though so with my Maryland roots I'm going for the Washington Capitals, the former hated Southeast division rivals of the Thrashers. I've always liked watching Alex Ovechkin. The guy has a personality to match his enormous talent. Plus he fucking loves to mess with Sidney Crosby so that is cool. Go Caps!

I will be the first to admit I wasn't on board at all with building a new stadium for the Atlanta Falcons. I've always thought the Georgia Dome was a great place to watch a football game especially when it gets cold in December and January. Call me a pussy but the last thing I want to do is freeze my ass off while shaking uncontrollably while trying to enjoy a sip of a beer.
But now after seeing these designs I say fuck the 20-year-old Georgia Dome. I want my impact rumble seats! I want to know what it feels like to be Michael J. Fox watching a football game while drinking $15 beer to pay for the cost of the stadium. Do they massage you as well? They sure as hell better!

Good job kid. There is nothing more satisfying than starting off your broadcasting career in front of say 400-500 live North Dakotans watching with a "FUCKING SHIT!" comment before completely shitting the bed. I feel worse for Van Tieu. She looked like she just walked into her parent's bedroom on a late Saturday night. Pure fright in those little eyes. The good news for A.J Clemente is it can not get any worse. He was suspended for the cursing on his first day of work. All uphill from here buddy. Plus he graduated from West Virginia University and is used to being from the east coast so he has that going for him.

Words of poet I tell you. Big Papi didn't beat around the bush Saturday afternoon when addressing the Fenway Park crowd after a tumultuous 5 days in Boston. "This Is Our Fucking City!" will go down in history as one of the most iconic sayings in Boston history. And before all you jackwagons start screaming "Big Papi isn't even from America!" it doesn't matter. The guy got his American citizenship along with his steroids right here. God bless him.

The Orioles and Rays were all locked up at 6-6 in the bottom of the 10th when Orioles catcher Matt Wieters walked up to the plate with the bases loaded. Orioles Magic would happen on the next pitch...
Meanwhile in Pittsburgh just moments earlier the Braves and Pirates were all tied up in the top of the 8th when former janitor/ski lift operator/El Oso Blanco stepped up in pinch hitting duty to hit the go ahead bomb for the Bravos. This would be Evan Gattis' 5th homer of the season...
Two catchers. Two moments. Two heroes for the respective ball clubs. One a can't miss prospect from Georgia Tech. The other a feel good story about redemption. Gotta love baseball.

I'm actually shocked his balls could even fit through that hole. Any sense of accomplishment in my life pales in comparison to what this batshit crazy person named Alexander Polli pulled off in this insane stunt. I get weak-kneed just standing on a ten-foot diving board. I'm almost positive Polli parks his balls in the Grand Canyon. Where else could he fit them?

I could watch these videos all day. If you grew up in the 80's or played Madden Football back in it's early heyday you knew the voice of the great Pat Summerall. Summerall's voice resonated with NFL Football as much as John Madden did. In fact Summerall and Madden teamed up for 22 seasons on two different networks (CBS and FOX) to form the best TV sports broadcasting team in my opinion. Yesterday Summerall passed away at the age of 82. He will never be forgotten.
RIP Pat Summerall

Via MLBMemes comes this incredible .gif of Philadelphia Phillies centerfielder Ben Revere diving to rob an extra base hit from the Red's Todd Frazier. Well done sir. He also had the smarts to get up and turn the double play by hitting his cutoff man.

Honestly I don't know how I would have reacted to the tragedy that unfolded yesterday in Boston if I was there. Some people run away (can't blame them) and some people run back to help. Yesterday former New England Patriot Joe Andruzzi and many other heroes in my book ran towards the bomb victims to help. It gives me a lot of hope in humanity that we are good people as a whole despite all the evil people who want to destroy our lives. Yesterday a nation came together on Patriots Day and showed the world that we will not let a tragedy in Boston destroy our wills.
Comedian/Actor Patton Oswalt summed it up perfectly...
“You watch the videos of the carnage and there are people running TOWARDS the destruction to help out. [...] This is a giant planet and we’re lucky to live on it but there are prices and penalties incurred for the daily miracle of existence. One of them is, every once in awhile, the wiring of a tiny sliver of the species gets snarled and they’re pointed towards darkness. But the vast majority stands against that darkness and, like white blood cells attacking a virus, they dilute and weaken and eventually wash away the evil doers and, more importantly, the damage they wreak. This is beyond religion or creed or nation. We would not be here if humanity were inherently evil. We’d have eaten ourselves alive long ago. So when you spot violence, or bigotry, or intolerance or fear or just garden-variety misogyny, hatred or ignorance, just look it in the eye and think, “The good outnumber you, and we always will.”

Wow what a bitch move here. Crying like a little girl. Come on man. Where is your dignity? Granted I would have probably shit on myself in the same situation.

This Mariners fan is clearly a SportsCrack fan. Not only does he catch the ball with his $10 draft beer but then chugs it without hesitation in front of thousands of adoring fans. A normal Joe Schmo wouldn't do it. But a SportsCrack fan seizes the opportunity. Drink up sir!

Evan Gattis has gone from battling anxiety to substance abuse to working odd jobs as a janitor and ski-lift operator while out of baseball for five years to hitting a home run in his first major league game off a legend in his own Roy Halladay. El Oso Blanco would be the biggest story in baseball and perhaps sports if he played for the New York Yankees or Boston Red Sox. It's just a shame that the major networks outside of Atlanta are ignoring his story.
Gattis aka "El Oso Blanco" (The White Bear nickname he got in the Venezuelan fall league after leading in slugging percentage) is already a mythical figure in the ATL. With his tremendous power and his insistence on not wearing batting gloves he looks like a throwback to the golden era of baseball. Gattis is country strong and make no mistake he belongs in the majors after just two minor league seasons in which he dominated after roaming the Western United States for over 4 years working odd jobs while trying to find some spiritual purpose in his life after quitting baseball during his freshman season at Texas A&M.
He's basically the new Josh Hamilton without all the tattoos. And after hitting a home run while his father was being interviewed live in his first major league game he has become a folk hero. Viva El Oso Blanco!

I'm not even going to lie. If I was still in high school or college my ass would be applying to Florida Gulf Coast in a heartbeat. Beachfront views with honeys hanging out in bikinis studying? Um, yes please!

The ball is now in your court Kate Upton because make no mistake model Emily Ratajkowski just took over the internet with this blazing NSFW music video. Never mind the horrible song or Robin Thicke claiming he has a big cock (clearly he does if he has Emily frolicking around naked) Emily has planted her flag right on the internet's 50 yard line claiming it as her own. So the question now is what can Kate Upton do to reclaim her internet title for hottest girl on the planet? This is on par when Michael Jordan entered the NBA and told Magic and Bird to go fuck themselves.
Emily is the new queen of the internet. You still have doubts? Hahaha. Check out this Carl Jr's commercial.
Game. Set. Match.

First round lock. Some team will fall in love with Manti Te'o. He won't go in the first 15 picks but I think either the Giants or the Bears get him in the 19-20 range. They both need middle linebackers. If they decide to skip out on Manti no way he lasts past the Vikings who have the 23rd and 25th pick.

Admit it... you had never heard of FGCU four days ago. And now Florida Gulf Coast is the first ever 15th seed to make it to the Sweet 16 with all those alley-oops. These kids make it fun to watch college basketball. Dunk City indeed.

In typical Sergio Garcia fashion he takes 20 practice swings before he finally hits the ball back into play on the 10th hole of the Arnold Palmer Invitational. One-handed mind you.

I hope DeAndre Jordan left some change on Brandon Knight's nightstand after that pile driver of a dunk last night. At least be a gentleman about it.

I don't think there could be anything worst in sports than taking a puck to the face like the New York Rangers Marc Staal did last night vs the Philadelphia Flyers. It's got to be worse than taking a high fastball because the puck is much more solid, cold, and it has edges. Rihanna was in the stands and laughed off Staal's theatrics after the blow while muttering "Not so fun is it pussy?"

So Josh Smith wants a max contract eh? Sounds good. I also want to go balls deep in Kate Upton but guess what? It isn't happening. Not now. Not in the future. Not ever. Trust me because every time I remove the duct tape from Kate's mouth she insists on screaming and crying. I can't stand crying. Such a turnoff.
In other words Kobe Bryant still has it and Josh Smith will never get it.

One thing I love about athletes, or in this case golfers, are ones that don't take themselves too seriously. You're playing a sport not solving the national debt crisis. Have some fun while you are making millions right? Well clearly the Golf Boys are having a great time. Whether it be "Flat Bills" Rickie Fowler, Bubba "Button Up" Watson, Hunter "Grizzly Beard" Mahan, or Ben "Going Insane Kaw-Kaw" Crane you know these guys are not uptight pricks like Tiger and Phil.
Apparently Rory couldn't make an appearance in the video. He was too busy nursing his "tooth ache" while quitting in the middle of a round. That's a bitch move Rory. Go eat some Lucky Charms and tighten that shit up.

I've seen a lot in my 34 years in baseball (yes I'm old, fuck off) but this is a first. NC State centerfielder Brett Williams did a flip while diving for a catch in left centerfield vs New Mexico State. Luckily the ball didn't get lodged in his blowhole.

She can cheer for my team any day. I love the bros just sitting in the stands acting like it's no big deal. Like somehow they have seen this shit before.

I can't believe I missed this while slugging Red Stripes and chowing down jerk chicken and lobster down in Jamaica. Maryland students did a flash mob and the simply awful Harlem Shake before their basketball team helped seal the deal on a tourney bid with a 83-81 victory over hated Duke. While Scott Van Pelt was texting/twittering/whatever in front of the kids in suits I was piss drunk relaxing in the Caribbean on a beach. WTF was I thinking?

No shit I laughed out loud so badly I started tearing up at this poor dumb asshole. Just the sheer agony of screams after the body slam are priceless. When they are pulling out the pricks on his back it was like somebody recorded me down in Miami last month while watching Notre Dame getting throttled by Bama. "It fucking hurts man." Yeah it does.

Big props go to the coaching staffs at Notre Dame, Alabama, Ole Miss, Ohio State, Florida, and LSU for closing strong on National Signing Day. They deserve coffee.

Yeah I would be saying the same exact thing after winning the Super Bowl, claiming the MVP trophy, and now a shiny new $100 million plus contract waiting to be signed. Fucking awesome indeed Mr. Flacco.

Just a great venue to hold the Super Bowl. I'm actually surprised the SuperDome didn't collapse into itself with Bane coming out saying "LET THE GAMES BEGIN!"

Congratulations go out to the Baltimore Ravens for winning their second Super Bowl in stirring fashion over the San Francisco 49ers 34-31. But who gives a shit about some dumb football game right? Let's take a look at what really is important: the best Super Bowl commercials.
My personal favorite is this Old Milwaukee commercial. It's a classic love story between Will Ferrell and some old Asian lady making out in a bus. Brings a tear to my eye.
My second favorite is the Taco Bell Viva Young commercial. Nothing beats seeing old people get fucked up while going for a late night romp at Taco Bell. Live Mas indeed.
And of course my third favorite is this instant classic Go Daddy commercial. Supermodel Bar Rafaeli making out with some tech nerd. Yummy.
The award for the "cutest" Super Bowl commercial goes to Kia's Space Babies. And by cute I mean the one commercial where all the girls in the room go "AAAWWWW!"
My bad. Somehow I completely forgot the Dikembe Mutombo Geico commercial.
True story: Mutombo works out at the same gym I go to. He comes in with full suit. Changes into workout clothes. Then changes back to full suit and leaves with suitcase every time. Fucking weird right?

Um, where the hell is the bikini and who in their right god damn mind decided it would be funny to put kids in football jerseys washing the car?
No wonder nobody drives Mercedes anymore. Even Kia can make a sexier commercial.

The son of the Big Dog threw down this nasty 360-degree dunk last night vs the Golden Gophers. It was glorious as you can see. More glorious than his Dad who likes to hit the pubs in my neck of the woods with his knee high NBA white socks while driving his Maserati? Not quite.
