Breaking Bad season 4 teaser trailer
I’m all caught up with Game of Thrones (and 100 pages away from finishing the 1st book in the series), and while that is the best show right now (as well as the best & most rewarding show HBO has done since the Wire went off the air), Breaking Bad has been the closest show that rivals the Wire and surpasses it in other ways (setting,...

Allen Iverson & the Crossover on Display →
The crossover is one of the most lethal offensive moves in the N.B.A. Miami’s Dwyane Wade found inspiration for his version from players like Allen Iverson and Tim Hardaway.
LOVE love love this video. Mainly because, if pressed, I’d have to say Allen Iverson is my favorite athlete of all time. I can’t defend everything that happened n his career, but he made me really love the game...

DREW MAGARY: I'll wear shorts if I goddamn want to →
I could probably post 3-4 Drew Magary-related articles a day. You can read him at Deadspin, Kissing Suzy Kolber, or his blog the 20 http://the20s.tumblr.com/
But yeah, it’s officially summer and I’ve been having trouble sleeping for the last couple of weeks because it’s humid and I have no A/C.
I had a roommate in college who weighed about 280 pounds and he wore shorts all the...

Movie Theatres Ripping off Audiences by showing... →
…That’s dark enough for Hollywood director Peter Farrelly to complain loudly when his comedy “Hall Pass’’ had its promotional screening in two of the Common’s theaters prior to opening this past February. Farrelly went from one screening where the 3-D lens had been removed to a second in which the lens was still on, and he couldn’t believe his eyes.
“I walked into the room and I could...

That’s really funny because, if I remember correctly, she and I were very rude...
– That’s comedian/actor Zach Galifianakis telling ShortList magazine about an encounter he had with “Mad Men” star January Jones. And I’d like to think all private conversations between celebrities are as awkward and hostile as the one depicted above. It makes me feel better about myself. -DM [Alex...

This is what happens when you make fun of NSync's... →
So I tagged a video of Justin Timberlake after he hosted Saturday Night Live last night and it immediately got a ton of hits. I also took a ‘shot’ at Chris Kirkpatrick saying he was the ‘5th wheel’ of NSync. There was really nothing to take issue with since it’s factually true that he was always the least famous or recognized dude. Even Timberlake & SNL...

Did you see Taj Gibson though? Slam dunkkk nigga
I feel kind of weird reblogging this since I can’t say ‘nigga’ as a white dude (except when singing along to a rap song when alone in my car according to Chris Rock)
Also the person who made this post attached 3 K’s to ‘dunk’. I double-checked to make sure this wasn’t some KKK dude. It’s a black girl. So I think I am good. I hope.

Dan Harmon, creator of COMMUNITY, on TV pilots
Community just finished its 2nd season on NBC and has become one of my favorite shows. I was lukewarm on it after an up-and-down 1st season, but it really found itself in its 2nd season. It’s a ridiculously smart show with a likable cast that is always experimenting and pushing the bar in ways that most shows just don’t. I’m a sucker for pop culture and this show nails it with...

an Article that unfairly hates on Bill Simmons &... →
This link hates on Bill Simmons and it is so incredibly smug, dishonest, petty, and slanted. It’s being a contrarian for contrarian’s sake and comes across as really jealous. Does it have some fair points? Yes. But it doesn’t concede on anything at all, goes over-the-top, and exaggerates. I enjoy columns/articles that blasts people like Drew Magary, but this is just so snarky and...

GUYS: ‘friend’ all of your ex-girlfriends on Facebook, then ‘like’ all of the photos of them pregnant.
-Kelly Oxford
I’m 24 now and almost all of my ex-girlfriends have kids of their own kid (ages: 2 months to 4 years) or have been pregnant at some point. All of them naively wanted kids before 23 and got their wish a year later when they were 20. I hit it off...

new Manchester Orchestra is out today Getting this and new Lonely Island. In the words of Big Tig, ‘cop that’. (God help me if I’m the only white dude that knows who Big Tig is and actually watched BET back in the day)

As I type this, I’m eagerly awaiting the finish of my download of Manchester Orchestra’s Simple Math. I think I heard the title track (above)...
