Take note - You should NOT look down if you ever shake Rajon Rondo's hand.
John Anderson had to learn this lesson the hard way. Rondo's hands will consume you and make you feel like less of a man.
While we enjoy ridiculing ESPN here on a regular basis (who doesn't?), we have to admit that their "This is SportsCenter" commercials are a constant source of hilarity. It's tough to think of any other company or advertiser that's riding such a hot streak of enjoyable ads.

Video: Rondo and Garnett discuss possibility of being named All-Star starters
Rajon Rondo and Kevin garnett were both on pace to start the All-Star game with LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Carmelo Anthony. Rondo is basically assured of the spot, but KG was in a tight race with Chris Bosh. Would suck for Rondo to have to start with 3 Heat players and Carmelo Anthony.

Mix some orneriness, with a dash of irritability, and sprinkle some justified and unjustified...
