They weren’t bombing Los Angeles. They were bombing Malibu. Lots of movie stars live in Malibu. Personally, I would have loved it if zombie Julia Roberts got her face chopped up by a boat propeller, but that’s me. I expect realism in my mid budgeted network tv shows.
“It’s magic,” said Mouse Morris, the trainer of the winning 9-year-old Thoroughbred gelding,
Couple things to remember about the 95-96 Bulls team. The year they set the record the league had just installed two new franchises in Toronto and Vancouver (one of the Bulls losses that season was against the Raptors). The league had already expanded to add four new teams in 88 and 89 and had not yet had a large…
I do realize you’re kidding, but your statement made me think about the book “FOUL!” by David Wolf. The book is about what Connie Hawkins had to go through to get into the NBA including a couple chapters about his time playing with the Globetrotters. Meadowlark Lemon went to Bed-Stuy with Hawkins to play pickup ball,…
Uh, I know it’s a 20 year old film, but I think you’re forgetting that the Too Squad had Shawn Bradley, an over the hill Muggsy Bougues and Bill Murray.
There was this article about Hinkie, and it said how obsessive he was about gathering information about players. For instance, he would physically go to scout a player by asking people who are peripheral to that player (bus drivers, people who lived next to the player in the college, hotel employees, etc) about their…
+1 for the extra point on that amazing score.
I think the funny thing about Hinkie drafting Okafor while having Noel on the team was that the Sixers could have drafted Porzingis 3rd and it would have alliviated the spacing problems the Sixers had. Porzingis spaces the floor, plays great defense and can play center. The defensive interior of the Sixers with Noel…
Seems like the movie Concussion opened more people’s eyes about the inherent dangers of football then their actual concussions.
I don’t mind Facebook. It’s gotten me in touch with childhood friends from 40 years ago, college friends, random people I’ve worked with in television and film as well an easy way for my mom to see pictures of her grandson. Other than that I go in with blinders on. So the douchebag frat brother of mine now posts…
The thing about tanking to get draft picks is that it’s not a new idea. Take a look at the San Diego/Los Angeles Clippers from 1980 to 2010. Even if you take a small sample, say from 1987-1990, the Clippers did the exact same thing. They picked Ken Norman, Danny Manning, traded for the draft rights to Charles Smith,…
Would he be any less of a failure if somehow they won 20 games this season? It’s am existential question that has the potential to blow their mind.
Schefter: “Did you ever put your hands on her?”
Malin Ackerman has the acting range of the female thespian from MILFhunter.
+1 with +1000 pouches.
I went to Purdue in the late 80's-early 90's. The revenue generating athletic programs like basketball and football were clean as far as the NCAA was concerned and there was never even a hint of an investigation. I played hockey at the school and lived in the dorm where the athletes lived. Here’s what I saw at our…
Do you think Judge Smails will ever allow Al Czervik back into the country club after this?
If LeBron were head coach then who would he pin the losses on if he didn’t have a patsy/buffer like Blatt or Lue?
Plus, O’Bannon wasn’t even that good in the EA College Basketball game. I think he was more upset that EA figured out the fact that he didn’t have any handles, a weak jump shot and almost no defensive IQ before the Nets and the rest of the NBA did.
