LeBron smacks Cleveland around

May 31st, 2009 Trance No comments

LeBron Yankees

LeBron James is a Yankees fan, we know that. But to wear a Yankees cap during a media session while the Cleveland Indians are hosting the Yankees is just plain silly. Pick a side, LeBron, pick a side.

Cavs fans’ hope of landing LeBron in 2010: 1/2 odds. Knicks fans’ hope: 1/4 odds

Yankees fans’ hope: 1/10 odds. So you’re saying there’s a chance.

Pat Forde’s hair hasn’t quite found Erin Calipari’s back burner of burns

The ongoing battle that is Erin Calipari v. Pat Forde may have halted to a dull simmer, but our policy on dull simmers reads this: Post it.

While Sir Kentucky would’ve rather the feud’s lifespan to not exceed that of the Mark Cuban-Kenyon Martin’s Mom similar war of words, there’s certainly lingering ammo laying around Erin’s anti-ESPN voodoo headquarters. And by headquarters, we may or may not mean Facebook.

Outlined by Deadspin earlier this week, Erin took the high road and dissed Forde through Facebook’s status update tool.

But like all great Facebook applications — they don’t fucking go away. Here’s one that survived, despite Johnny’s Twitterapology:

What if this WAS Michael Phelps?

We were clicking through the YouTube Machine when we stumbled upon this video. The caption reads:

Stef totally thought it was Phelps :) Good old Luigis, is the SVA place to be.

Can you imagine how many bongs Phelps would have had to go through in order to get this crazy in a bar? Our guess is seven.

Can’t the Globetrotters make one exception?

May 30th, 2009 Trance No comments

Traditionally, the Harlem Globetrotters have always been made up of talented black basketball players. Young or old, it doesn’t matter. But they’ve always been of the same color.

But, hey, it’s 2009 now. Aren’t we over racial segregation yet? Maybe if the Globetrotters take a look at these guys they’ll consider breaking the color barrier.

Yankees booted from Ritz Carlton

May 29th, 2009 Trance No comments

RitzThe Yankees are not, in fact, the powerhouse of the United States. As it turns out, they don’t even have the most power in the world.

The New York Yankees didn’t stay in the Ritz Carlton they normally stay in during their trip to Cleveland this week. Instead, a Saudi Arabian princess booked 90 rooms at the hotel. She is in town to have surgery at the Cleveland Clinic and took the whole hotel. These rooms run about $250 per night, so we’re not talking about chump change here.

No reports have been filed about the princess ordering room service for A-Rod’s steroids.

Play (with my) Ball!

May 29th, 2009 Trance No comments

Paly (with my) ball!Depending on who you ask, America has many past times. But if you ask everyone their opinion, you’re likely to get three things at the top of the list: Baseball, apple pie and women.

Manofest has done a great job at putting together two of these three past times: Baseball and smoking hot ladies, 75 times over. For some strange phenomenon, when these two ingredients are combined, it makes for great entertainment.

Play (with my) ball!
