Dwight Howard Who?

Poor quality video, high quality dunk.
That is our friend Nate, on a 9′6″ hoop. 360 between the legs… is that all you got?
Comps.



Only When Nobody is Watching

Apparently it is now sentence of the day.



I’ll be right back, with some bi’s and some tri’s and that six pack!

So its my day off today, and I’ve spent it so far waking up, washing my face, eating some food, finishing some laundry, all in anticipation for tonight. Tonight Curtis and I are having our weightlifting competition for the double date dinner. The loser pays. Its 5 events and only two are likely [...]



It’s Worse than the Johan Trade

The title is a baseball reference, don’t worry if you didn’t get it.
This Saturday I could be in Minneapolis, watching this. Instead I will be at Tri-Valley, judging this.
Oh well, maybe I’ll find the next Jim Carrey. Besides, Tom looked kind of lazy this time around, and about 95% of the people are hoping Mark [...]



Local Talent Comps

The seemingly magical powers of YouTube give us the opportunity to see anything from anyone around the world. Recently I stumbled across a few clips that are very funny. Especially for a group from South Dakota.
The series is called “Vermillion” and is filmed by some college kids at USD. So far they have five episodes [...]



A Chance to Live the Dream

So I have recently applied, interviewed, and accepted a summer internship with the Sioux Falls Canaries. Since I can remember I have always wanted to get into baseball. Now that I know I won’t be a player, or be the youngest GM of the Seattle Mariners ever, but I had to get my foot [...]



Lego My Blink-182

Best thing to happen to legos in a long time. Actually, ever.
First off, here is the original video for Blink-182’s Always.
Next, here is a close (and clever) second.
If you have time, please view both. It brought a huge smile to myself.
I will put both in the comments, but if you are viewing on Facebook, you [...]



‘Brrr’acketology

South Dakota, you suck. My MacBook Pro just told me.

Current temperature. I’m assuming this is in my room. So I’ll blog until I can feel my feet again.
Some of you have already received an invite from me for this, some of you haven’t. Facebook only let’s me send out 20 a day. What is [...]



Announcers Always Like to “Make That Call”

Sports announcers are the people who pollute average sports fans’ minds with useless analysis and garbage statistics. They also usually like to call things out, in hopes of being the next Al Michaels (”Do you believe in miracles?!?”, Yeah they made a movie about that game and his call). Well these [...]



What Else ‘Dont’ You Do

There are too many sad things with this to count, but I’ll try.

Harry Potter is a good read, and apparently a new religion in Sioux Falls.
The Bible? I don’t know what’s worse… that it isn’t first, or that it is even on this list. Who has actually read the Bible? Props (or comps) if you [...]
