Just when you think you’ve seen it all, along comes the internet with some crazy new stuff to flip the script on you!

In this day in age, there’s really nothing better than a good viral video, right?

Do This Dunk

It’s All-Star weekend in the NBA, which to me means just one thing: The Dunk Contest!

ESPN reported on Monday that the Nuggets are riled up because so many details of the potential deal were leaked to the media, and so they’ve added a demand that another player be added to the mix. The Nuggets want to get rid of Al Harrington in the trade before they’ll allow it to happen – no word of if they leaked that info, or if it was another leak from the other side! (more…)
