Highlight of Clippers-Suns Game



The best part of the ridiculous 40 point blowout came during halftime when they showed a clip of the Step Brothers spoof Baron Davis and Steve Nash made for Baron BoomDizzle's site, IBeatYou. Look at Steve's moves! Shaq's not the only one with some skills. Two words: Dance off.



Jay, if you don't know who the JabbaWockeeZ are, I'm shaving your head to reflect the old man you've become. I love PTI and Tony Kornheiser, but damn, sometimes the age/generation/technology/pop culture gap is ridiculous. Today he and Dan Le Batard talked about Twitter and Tony went off on the "twitter machine." It's called a computer. And I loved when he finally discovered Amy Winehouse...a year after Rehab blew up. I know ESPN wants to skew young, but forcing people to talk about topics they have absolutely no understanding of - I thought that's what they kept Skip Bayless around for.

ET (Knee) Phones Home: An Update with Shaun Livingston



It's not often you hear the word "rehab" in LA and not hear "drug" along with it. However, in the Sunday LA Times, Kurt Streeter catches up with Clipper Shaun Livingston and talks about the knee injury mutilation that almost possibly ended his career.

Imagine being 21, at the cusp of your career, and hearing that you may have to have part of your leg amputated. All because of a bad fall. (As someone who's embarrassingly, prodigiously prone to falling, I have to say that's kinda scary.) Shaun describes the fall as "pure pain...pain so bad it's hard to even describe." He tore his ACL, PCL, and MCL - in layman's terms, a whole lotta shit. It's amazing 5 months later that he's walking, let alone doing lunges and step ups.

I really hope we get to see Shaun playing again in top form, although to be honest, it wasn't a regular occurrence even before this injury. Poor Mr. Glass. Hopefully, he comes back stronger than ever. At 6'7 and 175 pounds, he's like the male equivalent of Nicole Richie. So keep eatin' that Popeye's, Shaun!
