Dunk City Basketball T Shirts

The story of the little school from Florida shocking the nation is just so compelling that we had to make up these special Dunk City basketball t shirts. How could we not? The Dirty Birds of Florida have trounced the #2 and #7 seeds thus far in the NCAA mens basketball tournament, March Madness is down to the final sixteen, and they’re still alive.

The team looks more and more like a David that really can slay the Goliaths of college basketball. Names like Bernard Thompson, Sherwood Brown, Chase Fieler, Eric McKnight, Christophe Varidel and Brett Comer may not be top ten NBA draft picks, but if they keep it up, they may well be. READ MORE

Trent Richardson Blames Himself For New Helmet Rule

Alot has been said about the new helmet rule in the NFL that forbids running backs to lead with the head when running. People seem to think that lowering the shoulders is now illegal, but it’s not. What’s now illegal is lowering you head and using it as a battering ram. The problem comes in when you lower your shoulders, you’ll now have to keep your head up, which is a bit of a strange position to for your body to be in. Not impossible, but slightly awkward.

Wilson Chandler, whom we let go, just hype-dunked on us. Gallinari and the guys we traded for Melo–a trade that my friends will recall me bemoaning–have turned the Nuggets into a good team, a team that’s outplayed us since the trade, while Melo has shown flashes of excitement between long stretches of regressing to his narcissistic, coach-killing, team-killing ways. He quit on D’Antoni and ran Lin out of town.

So the Baltimore Ravens traded Anquan Boldin today, for a sixth round pick. No, really, that’s not a typo. They just traded away a seasoned, centered veteran–a third down specialist, with some of the best hands in the game, who’s low-maintenance and a good locker room presence and one of the most under-heralded players in the past ten years–basically for a box of donuts. In a weak draft year. Despite the protests of their quarterback, whom they just paid out the wazoo. After which Ravens wideout Torrey Smith responded with indignation. I’m going to take a second and discuss how preposterous the Ravens’ recent couple of moves, are. READ MORE
