Never Go To The Rose Bowl



As if you needed another reason to avoid the Rose Bowl like the plaque, this video of a tornado ragdolling a massive bounce-house should be enough.  God I hate that place.

Don't Challenge Gaston To Push-Up Contest



Gaston is one of my favorite Disney characters of all time.  His actual job at Disneyland/Disneyworld is to be outwardly pompous and chauvinistic.  In this humiliating video for the challenger, Gaston emasculates this dude while at the same time demeaning the woman who was deemed the prize by saying that she "can't cook or clean."  I guarantee real life Gaston has a hard time turning off this cartoon persona in a bar.  I know I would.  And in other news, I need to trick more people into thinking I'm taking a picture while instead taking an embarrassing video.  The reactions kill me.


White Handshake vs. Black Handshake



This Vine cracked me up.  Dave Chappelle did a skit entitled When "Keeping It Real" Goes Wrong, and it hits on essentially the same topic.  I almost always defer to Chappelle in these types of situations.  On the other hand, Key & Peele did a skit that is absolutely perfect for the Vine above.  Watch that Vine and tell me who is being racist in that scenario.


A Tribute To Broadcasting Legend Stuart Scott


Stuart Scott and Dan Patrick hosting SportsCenter is probably the thing I most remember about the 1990's.  I'd be lying if I said I didn't cry a few times about Stu's passing yesterday.  Rich Eisen's tribute below didn't help.  Nostalgia has no chance but to completely wash over your when you realize how synonymous Stuart Scott's famous "Booyah" catchphrase is with SportsCenter in general.  There isn't a sports fan among us who hasn't thought of Stu when they flip their pillow to the cool side.



Stuart Scott's speech at the 2014 ESPYs after winning the Jimmy V Perseverance Award is something that everybody should watch, whether or not your life has been directly or indirectly affected by cancer.  They didn't think he would even be able to fly to Los Angeles for the event.  Paying no mind to his gaunt frame, Stu delivered the most moving and powerful speech since Jimmy V himself.













Rest in peace forever on the cool side of the pillow, Stu.

2014 Best College Football Gameday Signs


 I know this one was from two years ago, but I still refer to it as the gold standard that all other signs must measure up to.  I should've saved more from this season.









Funny Things From Bowl Week


The "Save the Jordans" gif has nothing to do with bowl week, but I loved it too much not to share.  Oregon says that the players taunting Jameis Winston and FSU with the "No Means No" tomahawk chop will be disciplined.  Hopefully in the offseason, since no one feels bad for Jameis.









Gotta love Snoop keeping it real.
