Hard to get much weirder than Dennis Rodman and the Harlem Globetrotters in North Korea.
According to North Korea, the Globetrotters were a team "formed by blacks in Chicago in 1926."
Really should skim through this video. So bizarre.

Who Needs Assault Rifles?
When this does the shooting for you.
Who on Earth needs this weapon?

Forever Awesome?
Yes, the Mavs aren't in the playoffs and the Spurs are. Yes, the Spurs have 4 titles and the Mavs one. Yes, I am a fair-weather and crappy Mavs fan.
But this is cool. Reminded me that the Mavs are the last team to beat the Heat and might be the last team to do so for a while.
And then Cuban blew-up a Championship team.
Spurs-Warriors series was basketball radness. Harrison Barnes is my new favorite player in life and I want his Starting Lineup figurine.

Unlock them all
Hacksaw Mark Miller
Nickname: A-Mark-Ican Legend
Hacksaw began his career claiming he was "more American than Wild Turkey" and "a Dickload more patriotic than the movie The Patriot with that Anti-Auschwitz Aussie," and became an instant sensation known for battering opponents with a 2x4 and screaming "Death to the Procreation Narcissist Paradigm!" and "Nipples!" Within weeks of his arrival to the WWIC, Miller burst into a starring role after he savagely beat his opponent and a ringside police officer who attempted to intervene and stop the bloodbath. When done, Hacksaw burped in the faces of both befallen victims and screamed "Fucktards Ish!" much to the delight of his fans. Hacksaw, who held the title belt for almost two years, was forever enshrined into WWIC lore when, at South By SouthFightFest '11, a small Incan undercut him as he scaled a two-story ladder while readying himself to leap onto his opponent. Hacksaw plummeted to the mat, shattering both legs, though managed to still record the pin. He returned to the WWIC only 5 days later with two 2x4s for legs.
Finishing Move: The DWI - Demolition While Irate
After splintering his opponents' chances of victory through a series of 2x4 jump-kicks and nuclear lactose burps, Hacksaw retreats to his corner to take either a shot of Bourbon, a bump of coke, or chug an American Appletini. As he does, the crowd begins to chant "DWI! DWI! DWI!" Miller smiles wide, cameras snap photos and Hacksaw lifts his opponent to his feet. He then screams "MUGSHOT!" and smashes his opponent across the face with a 2x4 spiked with bone spurs and sharpened Copenhagen can shards. He then shoots an entire AK-47 magazine round into the ceiling of the arena.
The Snake
Nickname: Venom in Denim
One of the most untrusted and detested members of the WWIC, the Snake's career has been long characterized by egregious disloyalty to former tag-team partners and outlandish out-of-the-ring behavior that continues put his name in tabloid headlines. The Snake, who first arrived on the circuit sporting ripped jean shorts and an Aruba t-shirt, catapulted to fame at the 2006 Crowley Rally when he alleged spiked the Undertaker's pre-match Gatorade with what was later ruled to be "Liquid Dirty Irty," a cannabis extract. Bewildered and distracted, the Undertaker was counted out while looking for caramel popcorn among the fans, briefly giving the Snake the WWIC title belt, only to lose it weeks later when his dog allegedly ate it. Outside of the ring, the Snake's bizarre antics and various arrests, including the 2009 episode when he shin-kicked and urinated on a Texas police officer, have given him the undisputed title of the WWIC's bad boy.
Finishing Move: Target Trickery
After wearing foes down with swift kicks and rubbing them raw with his shaved chest, the Snake sports a wide smile and provides his fallen opponents with a lift off the mat. When on their feet, the Snake offers his opponent a friendly "Minnesota hi-five". When opponents attempt to do so, the Snake grabs their hand and coils it around their back. He then bites his opponents in the back of the neck and sucks their blood until they pass out. To date, his bite to Andre the Giant is still considered by many to have killed the Princess Bride star.

Shawn Kevins
Nickname: Flair Bear
Known for his thunderous calf drops from the top buckle unto the hearts of mamed foes, Kevins is renowned for his unwillingness to cede defeat, particularly when fighting alongside his hotpanted "I heart"-ner-in-crime Jannetty. After a successful solo stint, Kevins and Jannetty teamed up to form The Rockers pre-Y2K. Together they have cemented a dynasty duo that prides itself on having been together longer than Tim Duncan and Tony Parker, as well as Parker and Eva Longoria.
Finishing Move: The Bear Claw -- A crushing bear-paw slap across the face of stunned opponents that is said to result in instantaneous hibernation. Kevins patented the move on New Year's Eve 2006, when he blasted El Razor Portillo at the infamous Pay-Too-Much-Per-View Japoneis Melee.
Gino Jannetty
Nickname: Jannetty Spaghetti
Jannetty's intense temper and hyper sensitivity to insult propelled this former member of The Hobbits to individual success when he claimed the intercontinental belt after demolishing Morton's Boy at the '98 Steak-and-Break Summer Slam. Characterized by his headband and legendary "headfake" which dazzles and confounds opponents, Jannetty teamed up with Kevins and revitalized his wayward career after being stranded in the ocean at the '99 SeaDoo-or-Die Fest in San Diego. Since doing so, this combo has terrorized the major circuit with their locks of flowing hair and simply fabulous attire.
Finishing Move: Loan Shark -- After diminishing his opponents resources to destitute levels, he catapults from the top rope and buries his knees into the carotid artery of their neck to knock them unconscious. When executed correctly, opponents are said to have 0% Interest in getting back on their feet.

Obama:
"Alright, will now take the next question from Bloomberg News."
"Thanks Mr. President. My friend Brent wants to know how the legalization of "Dirty Irty" has impacted the country and if you think more states, namely Texas, are soon to follow Washington and Colorado's example?"
"Is he the one that used to get high and go to Home Depot at like 11 in the morning?"
"Yes, Mr. President. That's him. I think he still does that."
"Tell him to be careful with that stuff. If he goes back to Texas and legislation is passed that allows for the possession of Dirty Irty, he could end up like this":
"Or worse even, like this":
"Thank you sir. You can count on me to relay the message."

Happy NFL Draft Day
This is the best story of this year's draft, or possibly, one of the best stories of any draft

Wild On Bogota
Highlights:
* Miller and I biggest people to pass through Andean region since conquistadores
* In a robbery attempt, several small Incans swarmed Miller and tried to clean out his pockets. One tiny Andean spit on his ear/neck. So, within 24 hours of arrival, a Colombian spit on Miller.
* Went into a bar last night on a whim. Didnt pick up on the "Flower Power" promos outside. Walked in to see three topless men dancing, a DJ just in jean shorts, and about 150 sweating men dancing to techno. We left and asked for a refund of the cover fee, which to our surprise, was granted.
* Colombian women. They dont seem to make sense. Stunning porcelain dolls just casually traipsing through the city streets.
Next up, the Amazon.

Bear Scare
Carnival cruise ship to be towed after fire strands it in Gulf of Mexico
There are few things that would have me trump my own baby. Kevin Dalrymple stranded on a cruise ship is one of them. I have no additional information at this point in time.
Poppy.
Every cliché you hear about having a child is correct.
On day 2, she was already schooling the other babies about the intricacies of indie alt rock.
But, in all seriousness, Poppy is the greatest child of all time.

I'd forgotten about this. Watched it for first time in years today. Like a fine wine, it's only improved with time.

The bet
When Brent Lubahn said, "The Texans problem is they have no heart," I had heard enough.
I said, "Care to make it interesting? (you'd think I had learned my lesson from the Tebow-Haircut Bet- but no.)"
So, we made a bet: Loser has to write a post on a topic of the winners choosing. Any and all ideas are welcome.
Go Texans!

It's Not The End of the World As We Know It... So Please Shut The Fuck Up
Well 12/21/12 is here, and I am sorry to say to all the "Preppers" out there that their time and money was once again NOT well spent. Over the last several weeks, and especially the last few days, people everywhere have been talking about the world coming to an end because of the expiration of the Mayan calendar. Facebook news feeds have been full of jokes, images, and even serious messages to their beloved friends "just in case" this was the end of the world. There were thousands of "End of the World" parties for all the drunks looking for another excuse to get hammered one final time before Apocalypse only to wake up with another Friday morning headache. And there are even some extremest/nut-heads have been spending thousands of dollars preparing for this moment for years. For instance, you can purchase $72,000 for a sealed bunker tube to comfortably fit their family of six. Seventy-Two Thousand Dollars!!! For what reason?! So you can wake up today surrounded by hell?!!
I have been anxiously waiting for 12/21/12 to arrive not because I was anticipating planet Nibiru to collide with Earth, but because this whole thing is fucking retarded! Hell, not even the Mayans themselves were believing the world was going to end today so why and the hell did everyone decide to take this date and not shut-up about it? I thought that when I woke up this morning that it was finally over, that was until I walked into my office only to hear my Secretary singing REM, and now thanks to that little incident the song has been stuck in my head for the last 3 hours. This incident was followed by an invitation to an End of the World party tonight!... It is almost as if people WANT the world to end today!
How many fucking Armageddon predictions do we have to go through before people finally appreciate life and decide to make something for themselves?! What the hell is the point of constantly preparing/worrying about something that we can do nothing about. If it's the end, then it's the end. I understand for a lot of the people I know, it was nothing more than just humorous fun. But it got annoying. It was like everyone was trying to think of the best way to make the exact same fucking joke. A few examples from taken from my current Facebook newsfeed (post non-apocalpse) - "When I have kids, Im going to make them watch 2012 and then tell them I survived that shit" - "How disappointing, I guess Im going to have to do Christmas shopping after all" - "Hmmmm, I wish I didnt celebrate the end of the world last night - I probably wouldnt feel so bad today!" And of course, about 5 times someone posted this "It's the End of the World As We Know, And I Feel Fine!" --- This is just to quote a few, I have since defriended these people.
Tomorrow the sun will rise on 12/22/12, and thank God, not only for another day for me to kickass but these broken record jokes will finally stop!... At least until 2018.

STEP YO GAME UP!
SPURS AMOUNG LEAGUE LEADERS IN HIP HOP SHOUTOUTS!

SAN ANTONIO SPURS
NUMBER OF PLAYERS IN RAP SONGS: 4
The Spurs are the league's exemplary modern franchise, but they're an old bunch playing in a small city who ball with little flair. That said, pound-for-pound they can stack up their rap name-drops with anyone on this list. There's Tim Duncan, who was rhymed with "Joe Buddens" by Lil Wayne on Da Drought 3, then there's Tony Parker, who was rhymed with "Bob Barker" in a very rare and based line from Lil B. Topping them all, though, is Argentinian Manu Ginobili, whose marquee facial feature gets used beautifully by Roc Marciano: "The four-four chrome is long-nose / Call it Ginobili."

Manu Ginobili: "The four-four chrome is long-nose / Call it Ginobili, your real nigga show me" — Roc Marciano ("The Man")
Tim Duncan: "Any Tim Duncan, spur of the moment / Let the whole world know I run shit, jump ship quick" — Asher Roth ("Lark on My Go-Kart")
Stephen Jackson: "Stay strapped-up we G’s in action / Knock out orders like Stephen Jackson" — E.S.G. ("Fuck With Me")
Tony Parker: "Light-skinned? Nah, a little dark on TV like Bob Barker / Love is lost sometimes, nigga, ask Tony Parker" — Lil B ("Reggie Miller")
