This is what you get when you get on the mic and spit crab rhymes about ex-teammates; rhymes that were expletive-laced and, quite frankly, reeked of jealousy: you get your badge revoked. Just ask Shaquille O’Neal.
Now that his petty performance has hit the mainstream, O’Neal is learning people are responsible for […]

By now, you’ve probably seen the Shaq-Dissing-Kobe video, courtesy of TMZ. In it, O’Neal revitalizes a feud by issuing a lyrical assault towards the league MVP. Included in Shaq’s lyrical virtuoso are gems like, “tell me how my ass tastes” and “I’m a horse. Kobe ratted me out. That’s why I’m getting divorced. […]

I imagine if you were to look down upon the city of Boston from space today, the area would appear much greener than normal. Don’t worry, there’s not a fungus growing over Massachusetts (unless you don’t like Celtics fans), it’s just fans celebrating while their team parades around town.
While I found the above […]

Today, Kobe Bryant woke up to mountains of criticism and posts scoffing at the very idea of Bryant and Jordan being mentioned in the same sentence. This comes on the heels of what many thought was a redemptive season for Number 24. The MVP award was a considered a coronation of sorts and […]

Obviously, the MVP wasn’t too thrilled about the way the Boston/LA series turned out. This thought is reinforced by the look on Kobe’s face during the post-game press conference:
Cheer up, Kobe. It’s not all bad, is it? Wait, don’t answer that. Your facial expression will do nicely.
Oh well. Maybe next […]

Introducing your NBA World Champions, the Boston Celtics. After beating the absolute snot out of the Lakers last night — 131 -92 — the NBA welcomed their latest champion, a franchise that’s awfully familiar with the NBA’s championship hardware (although, not for the last 20-plus years). For Boston, this title represents their 17th, […]

Paging Mr. Bryant? Mr. Bryant, party of one? Here’s your call Kobe. You wanted it and you’ve got it. You have two games to save your team’s season and if you really want to ascend to the Jordan levels (I still don’t see it), winning these next two games with a […]

Does anyone get the distinct impression LA simply prolonged the inevitable last night? Don’t get wrong, the Lakers deserve credit for winning and if they are going to pull the miraculous, they are going to have to simply continue doing what they did last night — namely, win. However, nothing I saw last […]

With all the Finals hubbub going on today — it’s amazing what an unexpected victory can do for buzz — I almost forgot about this one: P.J. Brown punctuates last night’s shocking comeback with a dunk over the MVP. Granted, Brown is about 6-10 or so, but I’m pretty sure Kobe can jump […]

Over at Yahoo Sports, they have a great post about how the stars were reacting to last night’s Boston Celtics comeback at Staples and they have some really good interpretations of what’s going through their respective heads (current favorite — David Beckham: Bollocks). However, it was a commenter who stole the show with this […]
