This shows you just how boring the Olympics can become, especially when you are on assignment to cover them live. L.A. Times columnist Bill Plaschke happened upon a giant statue of Shaquille O’Neal and felt compelled to bow down and worship the last man that was able to bring an NBA championship to the city of Los Angeles. This would have been a whole lot more interesting if Bill had walked around to the back of the statue and found the button that makes Shaq say “Kobe, how’s my ass taste?” in Chinese.
P.S. The Chinese aren’t the only ones with a statue of Shaq. Shaq-fu himself has one in his backyard, which you can see here.
Can’t a NBA Finals MVP catch a break? The Las-Vegas Review Journal is reporting that Paul Pierce had some girlfriend drama on the night that he was pulled over for a field sobriety test. I think Norm is really reaching on this one, after all who doesn’t have chicks throwing shrimp to them at the dinner table?
So I guess this isn’t really news, other than the fact that Pierce seems to be enjoying some seafood with some Playboy Bunnies.
When I found this picture of Chris Duhon, the first thing that came to my mind was the hope that this conversation ended with the phrase “no homo“. Maybe it didn’t. I’m not a specialist on this type of stuff, but those don’t look like “no homo” eyes on the right.
After the break, plenty of pictures of Chris Duhon partying with a bunch of random people from Chicago, as well as his infamous lap dance pictures.
Sacramento Kings Rookies Jason Thompson, Sean Singletary and Patrick Ewing Jr. rocked the crowd last Saturday at the Arden Fair Mall. Following a meet and greet that included the attendance of some of our favorite g-string models, the trio did what anyone would do after being drafted by the Kings. Go shopping for Kings gear?
Umm, don’t you get that shit for free? I thought that was how rookies got paid, with t-shirts and sneakers.
Somehow in between growing old and trying to get everyone to buy his book, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar managed to squeeze in some softball. He also managed to squeeze a little bit of Kendra Wilkinson’s side boob as well. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the fella look so happy. But then again wouldn’t you be?
Two of these pictures were taken after the Miami Heat won the NBA Championship and Shaq had the ladies line up for a tutorial on why he’s a horse. The rest of the pictures were taken by Charles Barkley while waiting to get into Dwayne Wade’s fave five.
Yes, I know that these pictures are irrelevant, but every now and then I feel the need to post a picture of a cheerleader holding a champagne bottle to her mouth.
Doc Rivers’ Gatorade soaked shirt and the accompanying Gatorade Bucket from Game 6 of the NBA Finals netted a whopping $55,000 for The Shamrock Foundation through an auction on Sports Radio WEEI. The items were won by an anonymous bidder who pledged a donation of $35,000. The additional money came from a $10,000 donation from Gatorade and a second anonymous donor, who also called in to pledge $10,000.
That’s some expensive dirty laundry right there. In related news, I’m selling the white t-shirt I was wearing when the Celtics won the 2008 NBA championship. It comes complete with YUDS (yellow underarm deodorant stains) in both armpits, and I will even throw in the stick of deodorant that created the championship YUDS as well. Do I hear one dollar?
Just when Kobe Bryant thought the nightmare was over, his old pal Shaq-Fu decides to stick it to him with some freestyle rap. I haven’t heard a quality track like this since “Smell Yo Dick” hit the Internet. Is it too much to ask for a “How My Ass Taste”/”Smell Yo Dick” mash up? That’s just weird.
