Footbawful. From the minds responsible for Basketbawful. Entertaining perspective focused mostly on the professional leagues. While IǃÙm linking to sports blogs, SLAM started a pretty good Truth or Myth series: Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, Amare Stoudemire, and Chris Bosh. And, … Continue reading
Starcraft units in Spore. Looks awesome, and I’m sure it’d be more interesting if I actually played Spore and had some idea of what it took to make these things.
I live in Seattle again
We drove on Monday. The drive was long. And didnǃÙt have the same feel as driving to, say, Vegas, but it was still good knowing that I was hours away form sleeping on a mattress that wasnǃÙt on the floor. … Continue reading

Royce Da 5’9″ – The Bar Exam 2
It finally came out this week. The problem is that probably about five of the tracks were released before the rest of the mixtape, so I’ve more than played those out. And another five tracks involve a vocoder. It appears … Continue reading

Five videos
For easier viewing, all of the videos are embedded after the jump. Eminem and Proof freestyle. It has 3,000,000+ views, but it’s new to me. Looks like this was on MTV some time ago. Bittersweet. Obviously, for one, because Proof’s … Continue reading
Bill Simmons had an all-Brady mailbag today. This question reflects the sentiments of a lot of friends, some more vested in the home teams than others, but all of us feeling the pain. Q: Brady’s out. That really sucks. But … Continue reading
I read an article on Sum Ish (“Disappearing Acts”) that reminded me of how much me, Dan, and our friends used to love Canibus. Here’s a small tribute. “Desperados” (opening verse). Off The Firm album. One of the few verses … Continue reading

Labor Day Weekend in San Diego
I was putting this off until I had time to write something long, but it seemed like I’d probably never get around to it, so I’m going to write something short. I texted myself an e-mail to remember all the … Continue reading
Red band trailer for Zack and Miri make a Porno. Seth Rogen’s playing himself. Appearances by actors from Kevin Smith’s universe. And Craig Robinson looks like he has a big part. (His scene as the doorman in Knocked Up never … Continue reading
Born to use Mics: Reading Nas’s Illmatic. Michael Eric Dyson and Sohail Daulatzai have brought together the brightest minds to reflect upon and engage one of the most incisive sets of songs ever laid down on wax. I’m trying to … Continue reading
Me, the bad luck charm. I live in Seattle, and the basketball team gets stolen. I move to the bay area for a while, and their mascot gets stolen. On a related note, the OKC logo looks awful. And I … Continue reading
Killer Crossover Basketball Drill. Gets good at 1:15. Gets really good at 2:00.
Google Chrome. Google’s browser. First impressions: It loads pages really fast. Facebook is a good site to check out to see the speed for yourself. Wired has a really interesting article about the development of Chrome. The speed difference will … Continue reading
