Johnny McEntee has not exactly taken the college football world by storm — the red-shirt junior quarterback at Connecticut has yet to attempt a pass in a game. But the Servite product’s trick shots video is becoming an Internet sensation, and since I’ve partied and been black out drunk at UConn before I have to show some love. The best is at the end when he goes to the basketball gym, but really the whole video is amazing.

After each Super Bowl the winning MVP or star usually states he’s going to Disney World. This year Aaron Rodgers made it known what his post super bowl plans were. Ever wonder how this got started? Via Wikipedia:
In his 1998 memoir Work in Progress, Disney CEO Michael Eisner credited his wife, Jane, with the idea for the campaign. According to Eisner, during the January 1987 grand opening for the Star Tours attraction at Disneyland, the couple dined with Dick Rutan and Jeana Yeager, who in December 1986 had piloted the first aircraft to fly around the world without stopping or refueling. After Jane Eisner asked what the pilots planned to do next, they replied, “Well, we’re going to Disneyland.” She later told her husband the phrase would make a great advertising campaign.
Weeks later, Disney launched the series following Super Bowl XXI on January 25, 1987 with a commercial featuring New York Giants quarterback Phil Simms. Simms was paid a reported $75,000 for his participation. The company later aired three more ads that year with other athletes following major sports championships.In subsequent years, Disney reportedly has offered $30,000 to athletes and other stars for participating in the ads and appearing at one of its theme parks

I’ll be the first stereotypical American to say that soccer blows, it’s boring and they flop more then wrestler in a WWF match. One thing that is awesome about soccer though is freestyling, pretty much doing tricks with the ball. Sixty freestyle footballers from all four corners of the world battle it out in Cape Town (South Africa) at the Red Bull Street Style World Final 2010. In Norway Anders Solum, 27, tricked his way to gold in front of a huge crowd in the city. South African local hero Kamal Ranchod, 21, progressed all the way to the Final before finally having to admit defeat. Superstars George Weah (LB) and Edgar Davids (NED) presented the trophy to the proud winner in front of journalists from over 30 countries. For more videos of the event you can go to the redbull street style website found here.

So I probably should have posted this when people still were interested in soccer for that 8 seconds last week, but this video is pretty rad either way. This is a video of the reaction of people around the world when Donovan scored the game winning goal against Algeria. Thank god soccer is over and we don’t have to watch it for another 4 years.

Well since yesterday was the last day of football until next year, I thought I would share the truth behind the great game of football. Studies show that there is actually only 11 minutes on average of actual gameplay in a NFL football game, and of course my girlfriend manages to be walking in front of the television 7 of those 11 minutes. To break it down, we got: 67 minutes of players just hanging out, 17 minutes of replays, 11 minutes of gameplay, and 3 seconds of girls with pom-poms shaking their big boobs.

Above is a sortable chart to see how every minute is accounted for in a sampling of four recent NFL games on different networks. Each frame represents 1% of the broadcast, excluding commercials. I know it is a little hard to see but pretty much that first green strip at the top is actual gameplay, the rest is everything else that makes up the 3 hours of an nfl game.

We all know how bad the Detroit Lions suck ass in the NFL. If you don’t know for some odd reason, the Detroit Lions finished up an impressive 0-16 season last year and they are keeping the ball rolling, standing at 0-2 so far this season. The Lions are going after the unthinkable record of 0-26 over a span of two seasons held by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 1976. So not only have these bartenders and security guards dressed up in Lions uniforms been terrible for the past decade (seriously do you know one player?), and really since their existence, but now they are going too far. They are kicking drunk hot girls out of the stadium, well maybe not plural, but she was probably the only decent one in the stadium. So before Bo Bo the mechanic had the chance to take advantage of this chick in the bathroom she was booted for getting bomb faced, antagonized by a guy, and half ass punched/pushed by a Dad. On top of houses going for the price of a VCR, it also appears people’s skin is turning Homer Simpson yellow i.e. at the end of the clip (3:30). What is anyone still doing in Detroit?
