Plax Syndrome: 12 Other Accidental Shootings We’re Rooting For

Listen, we hate to poke fun at someone else’s misfortune (at least that’s what we claim) but let’s be honest: he didn’t die, and some people need a wake up call. Plaxico Burress is going to live and play football again, but might be a little smarter about it next time. Lord knows there […]

Shaq Vs. Kobe, Round…um…45 or something…

Ok, alright, I get it.  These two don’t like each other.  I get it.  I understand.  Frankly, I don’t care much for either of them myself, but time to move on. 
This week TMZ.com has posted video of the Big Diesel freestyle rapping about the former teammate, Kobe Bryant.  Kobe will no doubt come back with […]

After watching his performance of an athlete with a back injury on Sunday, Kobe Bryant seems like a lock for an Academy Award nomination. But for what role? The aforementioned gutty, injured hoopster? His 2007-2008 midseason run as classy teammate extraordinaire alongside Pau Gasol? Or his method-acting laden ongoing role of starring as Michael Jordan in the eventual biopic? Compare them below:

The Kobe Ultimatum: 1 Year Later

Roughly a year ago, I wrote this hatchet job on Kobe Bryant and his demand to be traded. Well, looks like things have turned out pretty well for him.

Wait, Is Rick Fox Giving A Speech?

Ah, the wonders of living in Los Angeles. Not only do you get to experience wonderful weather year round, terrible traffic day in and day out, but you get to do some cool Hollywood stuff. Like meet Rick Fox at a screening of a horror movie he’s producing.

Peter King Is Racist

Ah, nothing like an old white football writer talking about the NBA. I’m sure him and his friends have hilariously racist names for the league, and no, I’m not talking about the National Booger-Eaters Association (although that is quite the burn). Here is a statement from Peter’s weekly Monday Morning QB article over at […]
