Wednesday, June 16th, 2010The 8 Most Intense Sports Intros of All Time
Friday, January 29th, 2010Professional and collegiate athletics have become less about the performace and more about the show. And for the most part, many people that attend these sporting events are expecting just that, a show. Since the Cowboys have installed their 70 yard HD television, pregrame rituals have been taken to a new level. Here are the nation’s best sports intro videos.
8. 2001 South Carolina Gamecocks
When it comes to college football there are very few teams that have an intro as intense as the fighting Gamecocks. Clemson, eat your heart out. While running down a hill is cool and all, it just isn’t on the same caliber as your instate rivals.
7. The 1996 Chicago Bulls
This team was a dynasty during the game as well as before. The intro for the 1996 Chicago Bulls (or any of their 90s team for that matter) is something that will never be forgotten.
6. Let’s Get Ready to Ruuuumbleeeeeeeeee
Probably the most iconic phrase in all of boxing . . . it even has its own video game on the Dreamcast.
5. Alaska Nanook’s 2010 Intro
Alaska is a weird place in itself. With the wilderness, darkness, and disconnection from the lower 48 states, there’s not a lot to get excited about in Alaska. However, the Nanook’s 2010 intro has taken hockey to a whole new level.
4. Boston Celtic’s Intro
The Boston Celtic’s intro is to the 2000’s as the Bulls was to the 90’s. Classy, ahead of its time, as well as memorable, it’s something that we will be talking about into the next decade.
3. The 2008 Bejing Opening Ceremonies
Since this is technically a sports intro, it had to be included. Some of the shit the Chinese pulled off in the 2008 Bejing opening ceremonies was absolutely, utterly, and insanely ridiculous.
2. Stone Cold Steve Austin Intro
If there were ever a master to any intro, it would be Stone Cold Steve Austin. If you’re a man and have never wanted to enter a room like a WWE professional wrestler, then you’re lying to yourself.
1. 2009 Alaska Nanooks Intro
No comment needed. The 2010 video couldn’t even compare to this one.

TMZ Purchases Lamest Video in Sports History – Lebron Getting Dunked On
Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009Hollywood hotshot paparazzi website TMZ has one it once again. I visited their site.
Over 2 weeks ago they were the first to report the Michael Jackson death . . . so I understandably averted my attention from a fantasy mock draft to read their claims. Sure enough, they were correct in their reporting. Sites like this thrive off the misery of other, such as Jessica Simpson being grossly overweight or Miley Cyrus falling in love with a hillbilly cousin. There’s just not much substance in their reporting. I hate visiting sites like this but yesterday they reportedly purchased the Lebron James dunk video for over $50,000 in American ca-ching.
They hyped it up like the was the Zapruder film of the 21st century. Lebron James, American basketball hero . . . the “next” Michael Jordan . . . gets dunked on by Xavier’s Jordan Crawford . . . James throws hissy fit . . . the crew collects the tapes.
The TMZ film shows none of this, so don’t get your man-panties in a wad if your company firewall blocks celebrity skeez sites. The quality of the film is minimal at best . . . although it’s obvious that Lebron simply was lazy covering the lane while playing help D during a pickup game. It happens in your local gym every day. Plus he’s 6′4” tall, which is more than enough vertical leeway for any athlete to get above the rim.
