Dealing With Fakers
Is there anything worse than fake people? I don't mean the ones that create parody accounts on Twitter to show off their amateur comedic skills, although some of them are smartly planned and well done. I am also not talking about the petrified ass clowns who create random fake accounts on the social media giant or fake email addresses for [...]
Kaner’s The Worst
You know the Blackhawks are out of the NHL playoffs when the inevitable drunken Patrick Kane photos start popping up on Deadspin (well done again), camera phones & every other website that loves to vicariously live through the 23 year old. Kaner was in Madison, Wisconsin for Cinco de Mayo putting on what will be one of many [...]
Floyd Keeps His Edge
Anyone who follows the fight game knows that Floyd Mayweather's business model and pay-per-view allure is to remain unbeaten so he can pimp that 0 in his loss column. It's a brilliant strategy by an equally brilliant fighter. Mayweather (43-0 26 KO's & picked up his 8th world title belt in 5 weight classes) made a boxing record of $32 [...]
Numerous Questions Await
Even though the Bulls 2012 playoff run ended when the reigning MVP crumbled to the United Center court once the game was decided vs the abysmal Sixers, fans, media members & the organization refused to openly acknowledge what was reality...This is the end of this Current Bulls team as we've known them for two seasons. It's depressing to [...]
RIP MCA
The rap game lost one of it's original pioneers on Friday May 4th. Adam "MCA" Yauch, one of the founding members of the Beastie Boys, died after a nearly 3 year battle with cancer, the group's publicist said. He was 47. It was revealed in 2009 that Yauch had cancerous tumor in a salivary gland, which led to the cancellation of concerts and [...]
Mayweather-Cotto Preview
On the third HBO 24/7 episode previewing this Saturday night's Floyd Mayweather (42-0 26 KO's) vs Miguel Cotto (37-2 30 KO's) junior middleweight title bout at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas (8 p.m. on HBO PPV), it was deemed resurrection vs perfection. The fight has been dubbed as a battle of "Ring Kings," but resurrection vs perfection [...]
Karma Hits The Taints
Roger Goodell is one bad cat. Ever since he has taken over as NFL commissioner/king bad-ass, he's made it a point to exploit the liars that parade around in his league. Make no mistake, the severe penalties given to Sean Payton, Mickey Loomis, Gregg Williams were because the Taints' brain trust lied to iron fisted commish. And now the player [...]
Sucker Punch Stoudemire
"The Knicks are back." Do you remember Amare Stoudemire making that insanely bold and completely false proclamation upon signing an insane $100 million contract with New York in July of 2010? It was easy to laugh and brush off the notion that one of the NBA's most horrifically run organizations was finally out of the doldrums, but Amare at [...]
Why Believe In Anything?
I'm often criticized for being a combination of cynical, negative and one that always assumes the worst no matter the situation. I'm the ultimate realist (and an elitist depending on how well you know me), and my pure optimist days have long been retired. When you've been jaded enough by teams you root for and players you admire [...]
Only In Chicago
There was 1:22 seconds left in a game that was decided despite a garbage time run by the Sixers. That's when the Bulls 50-16 season potentially crumbled to the ground like a LeBron James flop. Derrick Rose was left in the game by his maniacal head coach because he had to "close a game out." That totally makes sense, Thibs. It's similar to the [...]
