Chad Ochocinco Would Like You To Take Your Hybrid & Shove It

Possibly one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen.

Chad Ochocinco had a kick ass, environment killing, black instrument of mechanical death built for his 32nd birthday. Check it out.

So you just gonna call my football game in a Snuggie huh??

January 2nd, 2010 . by Dell

edloverIt’s a lazy Saturday morning/afternoon and I admit I wasn’t fully awake at the time, so when I glance at the TV and see a color commentator wearing a Snuggie it was one of those “nah… you’re trippin” moments. Sure enough, when I rewound the DVR my suspicions were confirmed.

Sorry bud, I refuse to take you serious as an expert if you speak to me wearing a blanket/jacket hybrid. I realize black people don’t do well in the cold but…. C’mon son.

It’s equally ridiculous that they’re calling the “Papajohns.com Bowl”, I wonder if my friends and I could scrape up enough pennies to sponsor a bowl game? They’ll obviously give them to anyone who is willing to pay for it.

Stop Crying About Michael Jordan’s Hall Of Fame Speech

September 12th, 2009 . by Dell

“All great leaders since Moses have known that a feared enemy must be crushed completely. (Sometimes they have learned this the hard way.) If one ember is left alight, no matter how dimly it smolders, a fire will eventually break out. More is lost through stopping halfway than through total annihilation: The enemy will recover, and will seek revenge. Crush him, not only in body but in spirit.” – Robert Greene

Various fans and sportswriters across the country are letting out a collective whine in reaction to Michael Jordan’s Hall Of Fame speech from last night. Instead of taking the typical route which consists of reading a bland speech word for word and giving a step-by-step story of your career, Jordan spent 20 minutes explaining things that lit his competitive fire, things that motivated him, things that made him relentless in his pursuit of being the best at what he did.

Of course, Jordan didn’t take the ‘aww shucks, you guys really like me?’ road, he took shots at everyone he believed crossed him in the last 25 years. There are many who see this as displaying a lack of tact or class, but I prefer to see this as Michael Jordan being Michael Jordan. This is the same man who would absolutely rip the hearts out of his competitors chests in the 4th quarter when he had the big stage. His body may have aged, but one of the biggest infernos of competitive fire we’ve ever seen is still burning inside his heart and he made sure he knew it.

If you want to see Michael Jordan lie and tell everyone what they want to hear, go watch a Gatorade commercial. If you want to hear Michael Jordan be who he is…. listen to his Hall Of Fame speech. Could we really ask for anything better than what he gave us?

Here’s a video of the speech, courtesy of 3030FM.

Video: Anderson Silva vs. Forrest Griffin [Utter Dominance]

August 9th, 2009 . by Dell

UFC 101 was supposed to continue the momentum of UFC 100, which was the biggest event in MMA history as far as mainstream exposure is concerned. However, this event had a total lack of excitement up until the fight you’re about to see. Anderson Silva proved proved he’s the best fighter in the world and utterly destroyed Forrest Griffin, who many assumed would give Silva one of the toughest fights he’s had.

When you watch this video, it’s the closest thing you’ll see to the Roy Jones of the late 1990s… you know… the guy who went into the ring with a complete disregard for his opponents skill and made it look effortless while he dismantled them? Yes… thats what Anderson Silva did to Forrest Griffin.

I’ve heard some people say this knockout wasn’t impressive, but I think it takes a huge set of balls to stand in front of a bigger, more powerful fighter with your hands down and still have your way.

Video: Stephon Marbury Crying On Webcam

July 26th, 2009 . by Dell

If this was any regular person, I wouldn’t find it to be *that bizarre* of an act because some folk are just deeply religious like that. But when Stephon Marbury gets on live webcam and breaks down crying in front of thousands of onlookers…. then yeah he’s a weirdo. Nothing with Stephon Marbury is an isolated incident, he’s been involved in too many situations to get the benefit of the doubt from me anymore.

I knew he was doing a 24 hour live stream over the weekend, but I only managed to watch 10 or 15 minutes before I turned it off, nobody is that interesting (unless it’s Mike Tyson, I would have watched that).

Does anybody know if he still owns that $20 million dollar jet that the New York Post said he bought?

Stephon Marbury Has A Breakdown Live On Webcam

Update: I’ve just learned that Starbury was also dancing around his bedroom in his underwear. This screenshot reminds me of Damon Wayans in the movie “Colors”.
