Video Blog!

Cool video, Ok Go! always has cool stuff like this just lying around

I love video posts

Video posts are so easy. I can be as lazy as I want, but as long as there is a shiny video people will be at least moderately entertained.

This video is courtesy of the Minnesota Twins.



Pretty funny right! Poor middle innings pitcher he gets no respect, no respect at all.

I'm excited that the baseball is coming back soon, although I will not be going to Florida for Spring Training this year. How sad.

Question!

Why wasn't Dirk allowed to be the All-Star game MVP similar to the way Tracy McGrady was allowed to be MVP when the game was in Houston?

Me: It's probably related to the egos of players in the game and Dirk's relative lack of ego. Also I'm pretty sure McGrady was going through some personal turmoil when he was voted MVP

Super Bowl Shuffle

It's a shame that neither team going into the game this weekend has much character. There's no Ochocinco or TO. All of the receivers are fairly bland. The only interesting offensive personnel, purely in terms of personality, might be Drew Brees when he leads the Saints in a round of random shouting. Let's enjoy a look back at videos or yesteryear.



Now consider LaDainian Tomlinson and his feeble attempt to create a hit...



It's a shame he will never win a super bowl...but this is just awful.

Question!

Who's going to win and why?
Me: Colts. Peyton baby, that's all they need

Question!

Who's more interesting, Reggie Bush of Kim Kardashian?
Me: Reggie sucks, Kim sucks. They bore me.

Question!

Is that a good call?
Me: Not a very good call

Question!

Will New Orleans get trashed if the Saints win?
Me: Yes, cars will be burned, boobs will be brandished and arrests will ensue.

Question!

Will New Orleans get trashed if the Saints lose?
Me: Yes, cars will be burned, businesses will be broken into and arrests will ensue.

Cool

Are drugs cool? Maybe when they help you throw a perfect game a la David Wells, or a no hitter like Dock Ellis. Sports Illustrated turned me on to this video about Dock Ellis throwing a perfect game while tripping on acid. It's pretty hilarious actually.

"One time I covered fist base and I caught the ball and I tagged the base all in one motion and I said Ooo I just made a touchdown."

Classic

Awesome clip

Here is a sweet video mashing up the movie Goodfellas and the baseball playoffs. Jimmy Rollins comes through and Ray Liotta likes it.



Question: What was your favorite post season moment?

I laughed when Matt Holliday got hit in the nads. That's what you get Cardinals!

Other than that I loved all of the god awful calls by the umpires, they made things embarrasing

So the new Halo trailer looks aaaaaamazing

Question: Who's going to play with me when this game comes out?

Deadline Deals

I can't believe the Indians are dismantling this much. Their payroll wasn't even that high! They are ranked 15th out of 30 teams with a payroll of $81 million. Victor Martinez to the Red Sox hurts alot because, to me, he was a great small market guy who put in his work every year. Now, he's just going to be another clog in the Red Sox Machine. The rich get richer again.

Question: Which trade your favorite team has made broke your heart recently?

For me it was when the Astros traded two decent young pitchers, Taylor Buchholz and Jason Hirsh, and Willy Taveras to the Rockies for Jason Jennings. I hate Jason Jennings. After that I was distraught when I heard they had traded Brad Lidge for Michael Bourne and Geoff Geary. Imagine how I felt when Lidge did not blow a single save last year and helped the Phillies to win the World Series.
