THE PHILLIES NEW STAR

The Phillies suck this year. I  haven't watched many innings. ..FORGET the games. The one star playing well this year is Joseph Dever. Watch Joe enact better times in Phillies land as he represents other kids like him stricken with Autism. Hopefully Joe brings some of his buddies to the next Phils game. They sure could use em.

CENTRAL PARK 5

While your still upset about Trayvon Martin, take the time to watch this trailer on the "Central Park 5." 5 black and latino teens were arrested and wrongly placed in jail for rapping a white woman in Central Park. The story stays the same. The only thing that changes is the characters.

YOUR NEW FAVORITE SPORTS ANNOUNCER

Brett Salap should be your role model today. He proves that it's ok to be yourself which in itself defines different. His excuse for not trying, being sheltered and or self conscious could be that he is stricken with Aspergers disease.  Instead he is being himself ... and he is pretty cool and hopefully coming to a game near you!

Watch his video below and check out his background story by clicking here!

KID BEATS CANCER AND DESIGNS JORDANS

Cancer sucks. Even people that don't curse have no issue saying FUCK cancer. No one likes seeing sick kids. Check more about the young pictured above who beat cancer and designed a fresh pair of Jordans. That sounds a lot better than beating a video game.

The NFL season is fast approaching. With training camp opening this week, Desean Jackson kicks things off with a new song and video co-staring Snoop Lion formerly Snoop Dogg. Let's hope that the Eagles season doesn't go up in smoke like one of Snoop's joints.

STEPHEN JACKSON - RAW & UNCUT

NBA veteran and champion Stephen Jackson was kind enough to grant a wide ranging interview that touched on his short stay with the Spurs this season, his off the court altercations, and even his role in the famous brawl in Detroit. Check out this wide ranging interview below.

WILT - PROOF OF GREATNESS

Wilt was before his time. His game, love for women (white woman in particular during a time when interracial dating was frowned apron), style, and flashy lifestyle were all made for today. Luckily, films has been unearthed that shows how talented he truly was. Check it out below and see greatness for yourself.

DOPENESS: THE GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS STADIUM

The Warriors have always been a favorite team for many NBA fans. They have consistently had a wild crowd,  cool uniforms, and exciting players. The San Francisco area is also a cool area with a rich history, amazing architecture, and mouth dropping views.  In 2015 all these things will come together as the Warriors open their new stadium. Lucky for me, I have a buddy in San Fran that I have been meaning to visit.

GET YA POPCORN READY

T.O. always kept us glued to our seats during his playing career. We watched his games, post game press conferences, celebrity basketball games, commercials, and reality tv shows. He may have found his calling as a weatherman. He simply has to spit out hot air and is not required to be right. Did he score a touchdown with his first on air performance,

LEBRON HAS 2 RINGS AND A GREAT TRASH JUICE SMELL FACE

It's been pretty warm on the east coast. Trash juice lines most city streets, baking like Sweet Baby Rays bbq sauce in the bottom of a pan of chicken breasts in your mommas kitchen. After winning his second NBA champsionship,  Lebron shouted out his haters/doubters, with the face I use when I smell trash juice.

BEDROOM BALLERS

Nerf basketball games were tricky. Is the bed in or out? Who gets this when it rolls under something. Is goaltending allowed? Do we have band aids when we run into the wall and or door. Are we calling fouls? When we get yelled at for sounding like we are going to fall through the ceiling, will we end the game, or tip toe around to finish the game? Nerf legend, this video is for you!

CHARLIE & MARTIN SHEEN - BASKETBALL LEGENDS

With the NBA Draft tonight, teams are hopeful that they will draft a franchise changing player. A Michael Jordan type that they can count on for 10 plus years to alter the course of their franchise. Many folks don't know that the dynamic duo, Charlie and Martin Sheen, were MJ's greatest rivals and the only tandem to beat him in a heated battle. See for yourself.

THE HEAT IS ON

Yea Yea Yea. The Heat won the title..... UNFORTUNATELY. I was one of the "haters" that was rooting for Timmmmy, Mau's bald spot, Pop and the Frenchman, to win another ring. Sadly Miami had more game. Scary thing is, by the looks of things, DWades son is on his way to keeping the legacy going.

WILL FERRELL IMPERSONATES A SPORTS ANNOUNCER

Will Ferrell will be staring in a new Anchorman. If the movie flops, which is as likely as him starring in a drama, he will surely have a successful career as a pregame sports announcer. 

OLD HEAD GAME

I play basketball every Sunday with a group of hoop dreamers that range in age from 19-60. 1.5 hours later, I normally walk with a limp after my body cools off. I literally take two games to get loose and and two days to recover.  This new DJ Atrak video will be a cool introduction song for the fellas. Let's hope that we play a lot better than Atrak.

KOBE RAP MVP

Lou Williams. Shaq. AI. Deion Sanders. All these guys have rapped. Non of them rapped with a model, hung with Nas and record executive Steve Stout, all while entering the NBA right out of high school. Read the background on his basketball journey by clicking the link below .


PROPS TO GRANTLAND

TO SEXY FOR MY CAT

Ron Artest is also known as Metta World Peace. He also went into the stands and beat the hell out of fans. He won the NBA Championship and thanked his therapist during the post game press conference. He is a rapper. He is a REALLY bad rapper. 

He is also to sexy for his cat. But what in the hell does that mean? Listen, watch, and see for yourself.  

Turns out Ron thought the song "I'm Too Sexy For My Shirt" really said  "I'm too sexy for my Cat."  Priceless! 

PIMP SMACK

By now we have all read, heard, or watched former Rutgers basketball coach Mike Rice take advantage his power as he both verbally and physically abused his players. Lakers star Kobe Bryant weighed in on just how he would handled himself if he were a part of the Rutgers' team. 

I get the impression that Kobe would have nailed the shot. Sorta like this!
