Megan Fox is HOT - Part 3 (KIMMEL AND LETTERMAN)

 
I have no idea what Megan Fox was talking about in this interview but who gives a shit.  She's hot as hell!!!  I don't care if she has the brain of a capuchin monkey.  I'm not really interested in what she "thinks".  She's still the hottest piece of ass in Hollywood right now and that's all that really matters.   

On another note, I have never seen Kimmel and Letterman so nervous interviewing a guest.  It's like they were 12 year old boys talking to a hot chick in the hallway for the first time.  I think Jimmy might have even busted a nut when Megan asked "Am I touching your penis?"  Shit.  I think I just did myself!  It's understandable though.  Megan Fox is FIRE!!!

If the Letterman video above doesn't work, check out CBS.com for the clip.

Amazing Dog Playing Basketball (MAD GAME)

I don't know how this owner trained his dog to play basketball but it's freakin' awesome.  I can barely get my Mom's dog to catch a tennis ball or frisbee without it hitting her in the face, yet alone dribble a basketball and throw down a sick alley oop dunk.  This is unbelievable!

Air Bud can suck it.  He's got nothing on this guy!

Jon LaJoie - "Michael Jackson is Dead" (TOO SOON BUT FUNNY)

I think I might be a total hypocrite for posting this video but I don't really care. It's still funny as shit. Yes, it's probably too soon to be making joke videos about Michael Jackson but let's be honest, the guy brought it upon himself with all of the F'd up shit he did or was accused of over the past 20 years.

A lot of people will get fired up by this song and say it's wrong and insensitive but pay close attention to what Jon LaJoie is actually saying. He is crude and offensive but it's to prove a point. He is just pointing out all of the weird shit that Michael Jackson did over the years and calling out the media and people around the world for chastising MJ one day and then loving him again as soon as he dies. He is definitely speaking the truth and will make you really uncomfortable while doing so. Luckily, it's funny as hell.

Jon LaJoie says it best in the description of the video:
"You're all hypocrites. All of a sudden the media is his best friend? Two-faced fuckers..."

So true, man.  So true.

R.I.P. Billy Mays (WTF IS GOING ON?!?!)

R.I.P. Billy Mays
Wow.  I don't know what to say.  What is going on with all of these celebrity deaths?  This has been a rough couple of weeks.  First it was Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson.  Now it's Billy Mays.

Michael Jackson's death really messed me up because he was a big childhood idol of mine.  Although it was not as equally devastating to most people, the death of Billy Mays really upset me a well.  He is one of the main reasons that I started InformercialAddict.com.  I love awful infomercials because of this guy.

Even though most of InfomercialAddict.com is dedicated to making fun of the ridiculous and amusing infomercials on late night TV, I still felt the need to highlight Billy Mays in a serious manner.  I never thought the products he was promoting were a joke because he sold it so well.  He had ridiculous energy and always made you feel like he believed in the product he was selling.  There was nothing fake about him.  He was just "THE MAN"!

I think he was well on his way to becoming a much bigger star because of the success of his Discover Channel show "Pitchmen".  If you watched the show, you could see that not only was he very serious about his job but he was also a good guy who liked to have fun.  There was something about his personality that instantly made you like him and you could see that he was loved by people everywhere he went.  He will definitely be missed.  My love of infomercials may never be the same.

Here are a few of his classic infomercials and some random dedication videos below.  Check out my previous post "The Best of Billy Mays - Volume 1" or the Top 10 Billy Mays Commercials over at AsSeenOnTVVideo.com.  There are some super rare infomercials in there that even I have never seen!

R.I.P. Michael Jackson (SAD)

R.I.P. MJ
Damn.  I am all F'd up from the news that Michael Jackson died yesterday.  I still can't believe it.  I was out with a bunch of people for some drinks after work and I received a text from my friend that said "TMZ is reporting that MJ died".  My first thought was "Which MJ?!?!?!"  I am a huge fan of both Michael Jordan and Michael Jackson so either one was going to really shock me.  I also thought it was suspect that TMZ was the main source of this information but it turns out, unfortunately, that they were 100% correct.
It was so strange because as soon as I told everyone the news, they all started receiving texts themselves left and right and every conversation instantly switched to MJ.  It was completely surreal.  Everyone was chatting about how shocked and sad they were about the news and most people just couldn't believe it.  This was our generations version of Elvis or John Lennon dying suddenly. 

I was a little more upset than most people I think because MJ was one of my idols growing up.  I learned to dance by memorizing all of his dance moves in his music videos and then copying them in the mirror.  I had the one glove, the leather jacket and  even a T-shirt with a picture of him from the Billie Jean video on the front and my name on the back.  I was legit.  I used to do the moonwalk across the kitchen floor in my socks or on top of my Great Aunt's coffee table and put on a show for everyone.  I'm pretty sure his music is what put me on to R&B and Hip Hop.  Even though his music was more Pop than anything else, it still influenced most music genres in some way.  It seems like everyone that is now popular in the music industry will mention MJ as their biggest musical influence.  I guess you can inadvertently say that I even became a DJ because of MJ.  Had I grown up a Rock fan, my music life might have turned out much differently.

At my wedding my friend and I even did a little MJ dance off that was a big hit.  The band played a sick 3 song set of MJ songs because I told them they had to play a few because he was my all time favorite. Who would have thought that just a few weeks later we would get the news that he had died of cardiac arrest.

Michael definitely became a weirdo over the past 20 years and I have to admit that I was turned off by a lot of the stuff he did and said.  He always seemed like he was ashamed of himself because of all of that plastic surgery and strange behavior.  I don't think anyone can judge him or give him too much heat because we will ever know what it was like to be in his shoes.  He was one of the biggest and most famous music artists before he was 10 years old and he just got bigger and richer from there.  I am sure all of that would mess anyone up.  I just hope that now we can all remember him for his musical accomplishments and influence on the world instead of all of that other stuff.

I think I might have to put together the ultimate Michael Jackson mixtape in the next couple of weeks.  Here is what I am thinking for a tracklist.  If you can think of any others that would be good for an uptempo MJ mix, let me hear it in the comments:

Potential MJ Mixtape Tracklist:
Billie Jean
Beat It
Thriller
P.Y.T.
Black or White
Dangerous
Scream
Smooth Criminal
Don't Stop Til You Get Enough
Bad
Remember the Time
You Rock My World
Jam
Leave Me Alone
Rock With You
The Way You Make Me Feel
ABC (Jackson 5)
Want You Back (Jackson 5)
Dancing Machine (Jackson 5)
Wanna Be Starting Something

WOW!  That is a sick tracklist!!!  That really puts his music in perspective.  I always forget about how many hits he had.  I can't wait to make this mix.  It's going to be DOPE!!!

Megan Fox is HOT - Part 2 (SMOKIN')

Since Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen is officially in theaters today, I thought it would be a good idea to celebrate the reason why men over age 30 will be standing in line to see this movie like they were a 10 year old waiting to see Star Wars.  Let's be honest.  It's not because of all the action or the Transformer robots but for the super smoking Megan Fox.

Most of us have no clue where she came from nor do we really care.  We just like staring at her and dreaming about what it would like to get with her for just one night.  Complex Mag decided it would be fun to dig in the crates to find some super rate Megan Fox appearances from early in her acting career.  She was actually in quite a few movies and TV shows.  Who knew!  I don't want to completely jack their post even though there are a few video samples below so go and check it out at Complex.com.

One of my favorites had to be her appearance on Hope & Faith.  We get to see Megan and Kelly Ripa in some hot sleepwear acting all crazy in a tub together.  Even Hope looks pretty damn good in this scene.  She could get it too!  To top it all off, Megan just got a tongue ring in this scene.  HOT!!!!
The other was this awesome on screen duo with Lindsay Lohan in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, whatever the F that is.  I can't believe a scene that includes both of these smoking hot actresses fell under the radar for so long.  UNREAL!
To add my own touch on this, I decided to hit you off with a few more ridiculously hot pictures of Miss Fox to hold you over until you can get to the theater this weekend.  Be sure to check out my original "Megan Fox is HOT" post with some more pics.  Believe me, it will be worth your time.

Justin Kittredge Breaks Free Throw World Record (MONEY)

I'd like to send a big shout out to my now "Cousin-In-Law" (if that title even exists) Justin Kittredge for breaking the World Record for “The Most Unassisted Free Throws Made in Two Minutes” after hitting 64 FTs in 120 seconds at Reebok International Headquarters in Canton, Massachusetts on May 14, 2009.   He even got a little love from Bobbito Garcia and Bounce Magazine for joining the Guinness Book of World Records.  Nice!

I knew Justin was money on the jumper but I didn't know he could get buckets like that!  I might have to think twice about that game of 1 on 1 I challenged him to one drunken night when we reminisced about our hoop "skills" and accomplishments.

I also have to say thanks to Justin for hooking me up with an UNBELIEVABLE wedding present from Reebok.  He blessed me with some of the rarest kicks I've seen in a long time.  Stay tuned for a related post very soon...

UPDATE:  Justin was interviewed by NECN's Mike Giardi this week. Here is the interview:

Jimmy Fallon To Play Tiger on Wii on Late Night Thursday (COOL)

I never thought I'd say it but Jimmy Fallon is totally representing for Gen X (and maybe even some of Gen Y) in the late night TV game.  First he signed The Roots as his house band which was one of the most incredibly unexpected announcements ever.  Then he had the smokin' hot Anna Kournikova on the show to play Beer Pong/Beirut in a short skirt and tight shirt which was unbelievable.  Now he is challenging Tiger Woods to his own game on the Nintendo Wii and they will be playing each other live on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon this Thursday, June 25th.  Very cool.

Fallon just seems to understand what would be interesting and cool for the younger generation or maybe he just has an awesome staff that comes up with these great ideas.  Either way, he is putting out some must see late night television which is pretty much an oxymoron.  Hell, I don't think anyone under 50 has ever said they HAD to watch a late night show because they were afraid they would miss something good.  I think this cat has something good going for himself and he might be around for a lot longer than I ever expected.  I'll definitely be tuning in for this event tomorrow night.   

UPDATE:  Here is the actual clip from the show.  Both were pretty horrible but Fallon pulled it out in the end.  I'm not so sure about that one handed swing but I guess you gotta do whatever it takes gets it done.  It obviously works for him.  You would think Tiger would be better at his own game, especially for instances like this when gets challenged in public.  Weak Tiger.  WEAK!

"Press Hop" - Hip Hop Mix of The Best Sports Tirades (DECENT)

This is a nice little mashup video of Sports and Hip Hop that was created by DJ Steve Porter.  He combines almost all of the best post-game tirades with a dope beat to create the track "Press Hop".  He does a nice job of scratching and editing the best lines (mostly on beat) to form a fairly complete song and very enjoyable video.  I think I heard some Autotune being used to bring some of those guys on pitch.  Nice!  I approve of Autotune usage in this instance but kill that noise for anything else!

Although I definitely enjoyed the video, it's still not as good as DJ Jazzy Jeff's "Practice" featuring J-Live.  He takes the Allen Iversion practice tirade and absolutely CRUSHES it.  "Not a game!  Not a game!  We talkin' bout PRACTICE!!!"

Eddie Van Halen Sues Nike For Custom Dunks (IDIOT)

Here is a weird bit of sneaker related news.  Eddie Van Halen has filed a lawsuit against Nike accusing them of using the copyrighted Van Halen stripes on a recent special edition of Nike Dunk Lows.  These stripes were made famous on his “Frankenstein” guitar which is pictured below.  A spokeswoman from Nike INC. states that “Nike has not referenced the ‘Van Halen’ name or image as part of any marketing campaign or promotional material associated with the shoe".

The messed up part is that Van Halen recently released their own shoe with the Frankenstein stripes but it looks exactly like the Converse All-Stars.  Nike now owns Converse so it seems llike they could just as easily flip the lawsuit and claim that they are infringing on the classic Chuck Taylors.  The only issue there may be the fact that the shoe and it's patent have been around for so long that they no longer have the rights to that patent and/or other vendors can now make generic versions.  I've definitely seen other sneaker companies releasing a bootleg Chuck Taylor and they seem to stay on the market legally.  Who F'n knows though.  I'm definitely not a patent lawyer so I am just throwing some thoughts out there. 

Either way, this is some crazy ish.  I am surprised this is the first time I have heard about Nike being sued for one of their special edition shoes.  Usually artists and others that are used as inspiration for a shoe don't mind the concept because it often makes them relevant again and the shoe is usuallyl dope.  A lot of these peope are even part of the design process.

Eddie Van Halen is missing the boat on a potential collaboration and a way to make him relevant again with the younger Sneakerhead generation.  He is also inadvertently causing the price on these shoes to skyrocket because everyone is going to want a pair now because of the controversy.  Good luck getting a pair of these kicks any time soon.  It shold be interesting to see where this goes because it could affect the sneaker game drastically in the near future.

"Baby T-Pain" - Autotuned Crying (RANDOM)

I think this video proves that you need absolutely zero skill to make it in the music industry if you are using Autotune.  Someone had the clever idea to record a baby crying and then run it through the Autotone program and the results were crazy.  The baby actually sounds like it's singing even though it is losing it's mind crying it's ass off.  If you throw a decent beat in the back and chop up the crying you could probably make this a radio hit.  It's not much worse than any of the other autotuned crap that is currently popular.

I might need to find a way to make a portable Autotune machine that parents can use to make their babies crying sound somewhat listenable like this.  I would make a freakin' killing on that product...

New Motivational Posters - Part 1 (AWESOME!)

Photobucket
A new "Motivational" or "Inspirational" posters email has been floating around lately so I thought I would share a few of my favorites.  There are some serious classics in there and it's even better than the first volume that's been forwarded around for the past 2 years or so.  I'm not sure how half of these are "Motivational" in any way but who cares.  They are still funny as hell.

If you haven't received this email yet, I'm sure you will be getting it soon.  And then in about a year some uncool douchebag in your office or family will send it to you like it's brand new and will think it's the funniest thing on earth.  Enjoy the freshness while it lasts.  I'll post some more every few days.

Steve Nash at the NBA Finals for the Late Show w/ David Letterman (FUNNY)

 
Steve Nash needs to hurry up and retire so he can have his own talk show because the dude is hysterical.  He's not getting any younger and the Suns are gonna suck next season if they make that rumored salary dump to trade Shaq to the Cavs.  He might as well just start his second career sooner than later. 

Nash is really smooth behind the camera and he is really quick with the one liners and sarcastic responses.  I guarantee he could get better ratings than that dude Craig Ferguson or Carson Daly.  Who the F watches those shows anyway?

Sirius XM iPhone App Now Available But No Howard Stern (WEAK!)

I was pleasantly surprised this morning when I opened my browser to Sirius.com to listen online.  I found out that the Sirius XM iPhone App was FINALLY available so I downloaded it immediately.  I got pumped about being able to listen to the my favorite music stations and Howard 100 and Howard 101 anywhere I wanted.  Reception can suck indoors and I can't listen to the online media player on my computer because it's a Mac and it is a Windows only media player (WTF is that by the way!!!) so I was super excited that I finally had another option.

After opening up the app and signing in I immediately went to look for Howard 100 so I could take a listen to the Howard Stern Show.  I couldn't find it and started freaking out so I did a little research.  The Stern Show and a lot of the sports programming is not available because they do not have mobile streaming rights, whatever that means.  Here is the official information from Sirius:

Some select programming, including MLB Play-by-Play, NFL Play-by-Play, SIRIUS NASCAR Radio, and Howard Stern, will not be available on the iPhone and iPod touch. Listeners will continue to be able to access that programming through the platforms they are currently offered on.

That is seriously weak.  That is all the stuff I listen to on Sirius on a regular basis other than Shade 45.  The music channels and some talk/entertainment/news channels are fine but most of that stuff I can get for free on other apps like Pandora or Last.FM.  Don't forget that you now have to pay for online streaming (which is some serious bullshit by the way) so even though the Sirius XM app is free, you still have to pay $2.99 extra a month on top of your regular subscription fee just to be able to access the app in the first place. 

That's some seriously weak shit.  I really hope they add The Stern Show at some point in the near future or they are going to piss off a lot of current customers.  They will also be missing the boat on new iPhone customers or even current iPhone customers that would consider buying a subscription to Sirius XM if they could listen on their iPhone and didn't need to purchase a completely different unit just to get all of the channels.  I was considering ditching my car unit and just use my iPhone but now I can't do that since I mostly listen to The Stern Show in my car.  WTF!!!

Step your game up SIRIUS!  You are really starting to piss people off.

Kobe Puppet Celebrates the Championship &The Lil Dez Parody (HYSTERICAL)

I saw this new Kobe and LeBron puppet ad during SportsCenter this morning and it had me cracking up.  I love how Kobe is blasting Montell Jordan's "This is How We Do It" in the background.  That song never gets old! 

I thought I would get sick of these Kobe and LeBron commercials but they all ended up being pretty damn funny.  I also thought it would kill the fun of the campaign once LeBron and the Cavs didn't make it to the Finals but they made it work somehow and kept the ads fresh.

I was surprised by how many different ads they had in rotation.  My favorite had to be "An Afternoon with Lil Dez" when they have to watch their neighbor's son while she gets bunyon surgery.  The kid is annoying as hell and rattles off about a million questions in one minute until they silence him with their sneaker closet.  I think I would need a pump of asthma medication too if I saw that closet...and I don't have ashtma!  SICK! 

Someone just sent me this parody clip of the Lil Dez ad and it is absolutely HYSTERICAL.  It's basically everything you would ever want to ask Kobe and LeBron (unedited) if you had the chance to be Lil Dez:

Thug Story - Taylor Swift ft. T-Pain (NOT BAD BUT WTF?!?)

Click this link below if the video is dead: 
http://www.cmt.com/videos/misc/401599/thug-story.jhtml

I was cringing before I even saw this video but I have to admit it was a little better than I expected.  Taylor Swift aka T-Swift aka T-Swizzy is actually pretty decent on the M-I-C considering her corny ass lyrics and pop-country roots.  If she switched it up a bit and took it a little more serious I think she could actually pull this off for a full song or even an album.  Compared to some of the other crap out there these days, this isn't that bad or any worse.  She could probably do an R&B album to utilize her singing voice too.  Why the hell not?  It's not like there is that much competition these days since all of the Rap and R&B chicks have fallen off the map.

T-Pain helped her out with this track as a joke for the CMT Awards so I give them props for coming up with something fairly funny and somewhat entertaining for an awards show that no one watches or knew existed.  I love that T-Pain doesn't take himself seriously at all and will literally jump on any track with any joker.  Keep riding that Autotune train for as long as you can because that shit is ending soon.  Get that money, man!  

This reminded me of another famous hot chick coming out of nowhere with a halfway decent rap.  Natalie Portman's hardcore rap on SNL last year was UNREAL.  She was definitely way more intense and I think her rapping skills are much better.  She was on some of that Onyx/NWA "I don't give a F%$k" tip.  I would definitely buy her album.  I love me some Natalie Portman!  HOT!!!

Keith Eloi: Truck Jumping (SERIOUS HOPS)

This clip of the Washington Redskins Keith Eloi has been floating around the internet for awhile now but I just recently remembered to post it after I saw his interview from ESPN's First Take from a few days ago.  Those are just some ridiculous hops.  The fact that he has that high of a vertical jump standing flat footed is pretty amazing but the fact that he had on sandals is even crazier.  Have you ever tried to do ANYTHING athletic in sandals?  I can barely walk without being uncomfortable or worrying about them sliding off of my feet.  That is just ridiculous.  

 This is the video he referenced as his motivation to create the Truck Jumping clip.  Jarron Gilbert made a clip of himself jumping out of a pool that started floating around before the NFL draft.  He got drafted by the Chicago Bears in the 3rd round and Eloi made the Redskins squad so maybe these crazy videos helped.  Don't be surprised if you start seeing crazy ish like this from here on out right before draft time.  It definitely can't hurt!

Blue Lobster Nike SB Dunk Low Premium at Concepts Boston (DOPENESS TO THE 3rd DEGREE)

 
Awww DAMN!  It is officially lobster season once again and what better way to celebrate than with a big fat lobster roll and a new pair of Nike SB Dunk "Lobster's" on your feet while you're up in New Hampshire or Maine on vacation this summer. 

I guarantee there will be a ridiculous line for these as there was last year (some people were camped out for a full week) so be prepared if you are going to cop these joints.  Here is all the info you need from Cncpts.com.
THIS TIME IT’S DANGEROUS!
Concepts Presents the Blue Lobster Nike SB Dunk Low Premium

The Blue Lobster Dunk will drop at Concepts on Saturday, June 20, 2009, at 11:00 am.

The Blue Lobster Dunk serves as the sequel to last summer’s original Lobster Dunk, a Nike SB that first made waves on May 31, 2008. The first “Lobster” was shipped and promoted by the “Concepts Fishing Company,” and came equipped with a poster, lobster claw rubber band, tee shirt and condiment box (replete with lobster shell cracker, fork, bib, wet nap and “butter” shoelaces) all embossed with the “Concepts Fishing Company” logo. The first 50 pairs sold were available in ultra-limited edition packaging, with all of the above-mentioned bundled up in an authentic Concepts wooden lobster trap.

This time around, it’s dangerous! The “Blue Lobster” is a dangerous sub-breed of violent crustaceans that have been wrecking havoc on the otherwise tranquil waters of New England.  Priced at $250, the actual Blue Lobster sneaker will be bagged, tagged and sealed in a HAZMAT foam container. Each pair will be joined by an official Nike SB tee shirt, hang tag and lace lock. The first 200 pairs will come with 1 of 2 Concepts x Alien Workshop skate decks.

On June 20, while in line to pick up the Blue Lobster, Concepts will also be raffling off a pair of the original Lobster from 2008. Raffle tickets will be sold for $10 each and the drawing will be held immediately following the release.

After the launch of the Blue Lobster, Concepts will host the Official Blue Lobster Party, featuring a number of special guests and performers including DJ Statik Selektah, Termanology and Masspike Miles. The “Brew Live Cruise” will take place on board the MV Freedom, docked at Rowes Wharf in Boston, MA. Boarding begins at 8:00 pm and the vessel leaves at 9:00 pm sharp! Admission is $30 and only offered to those that are 21+.

UPDATE:  Here is a nice little article from Boston.com that gives you a feel of what it was like to wait in line for the Blue Lobsters.  Madness!!!

"Finally Saturday morning came. Say changed into black, white, and aqua Nike Send Help Dunks for the occasion. Rubberneckers clogged the sidewalk. Men wearing orange hazmat suits brought a Blue Lobster shoebox, shaped like a foam cooler, to the register. Dry ice steamed out. It looked pretty cool. Concepts let the first five shoppers in."

 Here is a quick look at the original Nike SB "Lobster" Dunk Low Premium that was released last year on May 31, 2008.  Check out that authentic wooden lobster trap used for the shoe box.  SICK!!!

Sprite Slam Dunk Showdown: Top 10 Dunks (DAMN!)

DAMN!!!  This is a dope Top 10 highlight video from the Sprite Slam Dunk Showdown that has been taking place over the past few weeks across the country.  There are a bunch of dudes from Team Flight Brothers (including the ridiculous Guy Dupuy) so you know there will be some nasty dunks in there.  Most of the dunks from the Top 10-6 have been done before in the NBA dunk contest but there are a bunch in the Top 5 that have never been done and probably never will be because they are so difficult.  UNREAL. 

I was about to go on a rant about how the NBA should do a contest like this and allow the winner to compete in the real NBA Dunk Contest during All Star Weekend but it turns out that IS the actual goal of this competition.  I never saw that coming!  Check out the details:


Sprite Slam Dunk Showdown at NBA Nation:
  • First Place: $1,000
  • Second place: $500
LeBron James and a panel of judges will decide the top two online dunkers. Fans will select four finalists from the pool of NBA Nation and online winners for a chance to compete in the Sprite Slam Dunk Showdown at NBA All-Star 2010. 2010 Sprite Slam Dunk Showdown Winner: $10,000
It's about time!  This is an awesome idea and I guarantee whoever wins the Showdown will probably end up winning the NBA dunk contest because they will have nothing to lose and will try the most difficult and dangerous dunks.  I can't wait to see how this turns out.  SICK!!!

BONUS: More sick Guy Dupuy footage.  How about a 360 between the legs dunk.  Just NASTY!

Dwight Howard is Slightly Insane (But Funny as Hell)

This is a short vid of some pretty funny "outtakes" from Dwight Howard's new Vitaminwater ads.  I think this officially proves that Dwight Howard is just a little bit crazy and might have too much free time on his hands but you know advertisers eat this stuff up.  He is definitely setting himself up for some big endorsements in the next couple of years.

My favorite comedic moment from Howard had to be his Stan Van Gundy impersonation from a few weeks ago.  Classic!
There hasn't been a big man with this much personality since Shaquille O'Neal came into the league in the 90's.  He's like a big kid just having fun and living the dream.  Now if he could only learn how to make some damn free throws...

"I'm On a Boat" Acapella Version (WOAH!)

 

DAMN!!!!  This is a sick acapella version of Andy Samberg's "I'm On a Boat" from SNL.  The beginning sucks when they are doing "Row Your Boat" but give it a few seconds because it will definitely pay off.  The choir nerds actually did a good job of pulling off the rap without looking like complete tools too.  Not bad. 

If you didn't see the original "I'm On a Boat", check it out below.  This shit is funny as hell and gets better with multiple views.  You've gotta love the special guest appearance by T-Pain.  That dude will do get on a track with anyone!

Some Dude Beats Up a Car Like Ryu in Street Fighter 2 (AWESOME)

 
You can call me a nerd for liking this video but I thought it was freakin' hysterical.  If you grew up playing video games in the late 80's and 90's like myself then you've most likely played Street Fighter 2 in the arcade, Super Nintendo or Sega Genesis.  It was by far one of the best games of it's time and it still holds up today.

This is an awesome real life reenactment of the Bonus Scene in which the character has to beat the crap out of a car in order to get bonus points.  It makes no sense but it was always fun to see the top of a car pop off from a random leg sweep or punch. 

Here is a clip of the actual bonus round from the game.  This takes me back!!!

Hammer Pants Dance - New A&E Commercial (STOP! HAMMERTIME)


Holy shit!  This is freakin' awesome!  This is one of the best executions of an insanely ridiculous idea that I have ever seen.  Any time you can create flashmob of people dressed in silky smooth Hammer pants and get them to dance in unison to MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" while scaring the crap out of wannabe hipsters shopping in a trendy clothing store, you have officially pulled of the best hidden camera moment of all time.  It really doesn't get much better than that.  UNREAL! 

And in case you didn't know why A&E made this random ass commercial, it's to promote their new docu-drama (aka reality show) about Hammer and his family appropriately called "Hammertime".  Don't worry.  I had no clue either.  Who the F watches A&E anyway?  Actually, I guess I will be soon because I NEED to watch this show.

You will probably appreciate this video a little bit more if you've actually seen Slumdog Millionaire already but it's still funny either way.  I think I would like to see this version made as a sequel.

As we've seen previously here and here, little kids dancing will always be funny and put you in a good mood.  A little fat white kid doing a dance off against a little black kid with some skills is even better.  I almost lost my shit when the kid in the back commented on the fat kids second dance and was like "Oooh! He's like fight dancin'!  Oh!  HE's SUPPOSED TO BE KRUMPIN'!".  Ha Ha!!!

Jay-Z & Eminem Discuss DJ Hero; Jay-Z - D.O.A. Remix w/ AZ

Here are a few highlights from the DJ Hero Party that took place June 1st.  There were a ton of well known artists from all genres in the building but the presence of Jay-Z and Eminem was what got the place going crazy.  They  performed a few of their hits including "Renegade" which is one of my favorite collaborations of all time.  I would love to see these dudes put out a collabo album.  It would be absolutely INSANE. 

What's up with Jigga's hair these days by the way?  He's starting to rock that crazy baby fro.  I'm not so sure that's a good look for him. His forehead is starting to creep back in his advanced age.  I think he needs to go back to the fade.

I also found a remix of Jay-Z's new song D.O.A. (Death of Autotune) which includes a verse from the still super underrated AZ.  I thought it came out pretty dope:

Nike's Air Yeezy Commercial (STRANGE)

 
I'm confused about two things here.  First off, why did Nike bother making a commercial/video for the Air Yeezy?  There is no way in hell you will ever see a pair in stores unless you wait in line for days so it's not like they needed to build a buzz.  Everyone that was going to buy a pair already knew about them because of all the crazy hype on every sneaker related site over the past 6 months. 

Secondly, am I supposed to believe that aliens created this shoe or Kanye is an alien or both?  This video pretty much made zero sense.  I guess I'm not surprised though.  And why were there a pair of low top Nike Blazers all busted up lying on the ground?  Confusing.  Whatever though.  I still love the shoe.  Too bad I will never get my hands on a pair because I actually have a job and can't wait in line for a week to get a pair of $215 sneakers.  WEAK!

"You Do Steroids!" Chant to A-Rod by Fenway Fans (OWNED)

"You Do Steroids!!!  Clap, Clap, CLAP-CLAP-CLAP!!!  

HA HA!  Classic.  This chant was bound to happen at some point this season but we just didn't know how or when it would present itself.  As soon as I heard A-Rod got caught for steroid use a few months ago, I instantly thought about how relentless Red Sox fans would be at Fenway once the Yankees came to town. 

The Sox are completely OWNING the Yankees this season (7-0) and I think the fans at Fenway were getting bored with the lack of competition.  When that happens, people get drunker and rowdier and hysterical chants start to float around the stands.  Most of them usually suck or are lame cliche's by some douchebag with no creativity but I thought this one was fairly solid.  It's simple but effective.  I hope I can get some tickets to a Sox/Yanks series before the end of the season so I can join in on the Gay-Rod bashing.  That never gets old.
