Is the NBA turning into English Soccer?

I stumbled onto an article in the WSJ written in February that I thought was particularly interesting, comparing the current state of the NBA to England’s Premier League. It’s an interesting thought that many fans have probably been thinking about lately. Here’s an excerpt: Carmelo Anthony’s trade to the New York Knicks Monday night is [ READ MORE ]

Random Thoughts

It’s already March, and it’s been some time since anyone has bothered to post on here. So this is the revival! Speaking of “march”, there is a hilarious assortment of Hitler rant parodies on the web that illustrate the creativity of geeks interested in several different subject matters.

I’ve heard a lot of people complain about the Eagles game being postponed “due to weather”, including Governor Rendell. Really?

Federer trick shot

The face of Gillette’s sensitive skin campaign, Roger Federer, tosses up two serves that knock a bottle clean off a crew member’s head. Doesn’t seem fully scripted, and it’s pretty entertaining. Ah, finally the modern version of the old “bow n’ arrow shoots an apple off someone’s head” trick. Enjoy. Here’s a guy that (now [ READ MORE ]

Why LeBron James is NOT an A**hole

This is a quick response to The Cool’s article on Why LeBron James is an A**Hole. I am upset with the WAY that LeBron left as well, but not so much at the fact that he left. I was actually watching LeBron’s 1-hour special with a bunch of people that included three Cleveland residents. They [ READ MORE ]

NASA: World Cup Jabulani Ball is “unpredictable”

After all the debate and anger over the Adidas Jabulani World Cup ball, aerodynamic experts from NASA have finally weighed in with their scientific opinion. After some experimentation they have determined that the Jabulani develops an unpredictable flight pattern after reaching a speed of 44mph—coined as the “knuckle ball” effect.
