Adreian Payne Brings Bowling To Dunking

April 4, 2014 By Nick A.

This dunk by Michigan State’s Adreian Payne had a little bit of everything. It let a kid get involved. It had lots of hype and air. There was a 360. And bowling. Although Payne lost the overall contest to Marcus Lewis of Eastern Kentucky, he definitely took home the prize for most creativity, showmanship and […]

Guess How Much Eric Decker Paid For His Jersey Number

April 1, 2014 By Nick A.

Brad Penner/USA TODAY Sports

Come on. Just take a wild guess. Okay, good. You’re wrong. It’s amazing what a player will do to get their original jersey number if they switch teams. Some players will give up the number without a fuss, others will ask you to donate money to a charity or buy them lunch. Not Jeff Cumberland. […]

Opening Night Is Here! Baseball Season Has Officially Started

March 30, 2014 By Nick A.

Move over basketball, baseball is here. Tonight kicked off Opening Night in baseball, with the Los Angeles Dodgers traveling to San Diego for the only game of the night, and it didn’t disappoint. In what appeared to be a pitcher’s game, the Dodgers blew their 1-0 lead until the Padres drove in three runs in […]

AJ McCarron Puts A Ring On Katherine Webb

March 29, 2014 By Nick A.

Sorry, Auburn fans, alumni and all other men not associated with Auburn. Katherine Webb is officially off the market. Looks like former Alabama quarterback AJ McCarron put a ring on the former Miss Alabama in Gulf Shores, Alabama on Friday. According to her Twitter post, McCarron apparently designed the ring himself. Not impressed? This might […]

Richard Sherman Defends DeSean Jackson With Twitter Pic

March 29, 2014 By Nick A.

Richard Sherman has something to say. This isn’t new. And unless you’ve been completely away from every media source since Friday morning, then it also shouldn’t be new to you that DeSean Jackson was abruptly released by the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles have still yet to give the exact reason why they have released one […]

Remember Kevin Ware? Well, He’s Transferring

March 29, 2014 By Nick A.

Remember Kevin Ware? Well, He's Transferring

Well, with Louisville done for the season, it looks like one of their players have already made decisions for next year. Remember Kevin Ware? Name doesn’t ring a bell? Well, remember last year during the NCAA Tournament and the guy who broke his leg and the bone… oh, now you remember? I’ll give you a […]

Joakim Noah’s Dream Team Starting Five Includes Corey Brewer

March 26, 2014 By Nick A.

Joakim Noah is one eccentric, high energy fellow. I think we can all agree on that. His energy on the court is intense and it’s hard to find someone that is more passionate in a game. But when it comes to naming a dream team, Noah is definitely in a world of his own. He […]

Yes, Metta World Peace Compared Ryan Kelly To Kevin Durant

March 25, 2014 By Nick A.

At first, I thought it was just a joke. We’ve all seen and heard Metta World Peace, formerly known as Ron Artest, make crazy comments in the past. So to hear this, I’m still not taking him seriously and it’s taken me a day to wait to make sure it was serious. It seems like […]

I’m Upset With All These Upsets. I Need A Hug

March 23, 2014 By Nick A.

This has by far been one of the craziest tournaments in years. Last week, I gave my predictions for my Final Four and I didn’t think I’d only be left with Virginia in the tournament. There were so many weird upsets this weekend, I’m still trying to wrap my head around it. Creighton gets smoked […]
