Does Nike Think Lebron Smokes Rocks?

Alright, so I’m figuring that pretty much everyone in the world has seen the new Nike commercial featuring Lebron and a host of others doing his well-known chalk toss in the air. In the ad there is also a song in the background that repeats the lyric, “the Candyman is back.” Aside from the Lil Wayne cameo, I took a certain implication away from this commercial and that implication is where I came up with the Chappelle Show reference. I’m just trying to figure out what Nike was thinking in playing a song with the word “candyman” set to a man throwing white powder into the air like a scene from Scarface. They might as well have played some Andre Nickatina Ayo For Yayo. That’s what came to my mind and I haven’t even watched Blow in like 7 hours. Here’s the commercial followed by the possible Nike implication.

Too Bad He Has Herpes

I am about to post a video that I have seen everywhere today, I’m not sure who posted it first but here were some of the places I saw it With Leather and C-Notes. Anyway, it features is Delonte West while on the Celtics, and I had no idea that this guy was hilarious. If you youtube him, there are countless videos of off the wall comments that make you laugh like you’re watching Grandma’s Boy. He kind of sounds like Leon Phelps, the Ladies Man, which may explain the herpes, but he just reels off absurd comments that make me feel he needs to be on Ritalin in addition to his Valtrex. At one point he says that he met Bugs Bunny, now watch.

Misery, And I’m Not Talking Kathy Bates

42-17131105.jpgForbes just published an article listing what they believe to be the Ten Most Miserable Sports Cities. They based these rankings on different numbers and ratios with pretty much a blatant disregard for these actual misery of the fans in these cities. Evidence supporting this fact being the Atlanta is number 1, with Cleveland and Philadelphia being 8 and 9. Here are my top 5.

1. Cleveland – The Indians were a joke before the Carlos Baerga era, and the constant highlight of MJ’s jumpshot over Craig Ehlo does not help. Not to mention a football team that left and was re-created, while continuing to make fans feel like Tim Couch(pussy who cries) on a daily basis.

2. Philadelphia – When a city is ready to boo Santa Claus, then you know there are some mental issues. Probably the most annoying of all fans, with their constant Eagles chants, while also being the most likely to go home and put on lipstick like Steve Buscemi in Billy Madison and contemplate their “People to Kill” list, #1 – Joe Carter.

3. Boston – Sure this city has been on fire since 2001, but it really does not make any difference for the fans. They’ll still be the first one’s to bitch about officiating or make themselves feel like the victim. It’s kind of like a city full of ex-girlfriends, or more accurately, a city full of Livia Sopranos.

4. Buffalo – Four Superbowl losses on Madden would make me want to kill myself, let alone in real-life. Also, arguably their biggest star was Orenthal James himself. Maybe O.J. could help out Buffalonians, if you know what I mean, when the Bills leave for an actual city(Toronto) in the near future.

5. Twin Cities (Minneapolis, St. Paul) – First of all, there is an identity crisis, which can’t help, kind of like having gay parents, you’re already at a disadvantage. The persona of over-acheiving before under-acheiving has definitely taken its toll, and Gary Anderson‘s Norwood in 1998 doesn’t help. To tell you the truth, they probably would have been higher on the list if it wasn’t for Gordon Bombay and the Mighty Ducks.
