Video: Giants fan falls during SB parade

Tweet This knucklehead NY Giants fan falls 2 stories during the Super Bowl Parade celebration. For some inexplicable reason he was trying to climb up to a second floor window in an office building. He actually got up to the window which is sort of impressive. The occupants in the office initially opened the window but did not let him in. The crowd began shouting "let Him...

Times Square welcomes Memphis to Big East

Via @SportsBizMiss Memphis is not close to Times Square in New York so why on earth did the Big East Conference put their welcome Memphis sign there? This move makes little sense and probably cost a lot of money. The Big East is either a genius for doing this or not making the best decision.

Video: Westbrook's jam on the Kings

Russ straight Mortal Kombat’s this dunk over most of the Sacramento Kings defense. I’m still sticking with Russ being a top 3 guard in the NBA. Between him, Harden and KD I can easily see three championships in the next 7 years.
