Video: Knicks' Lin and Fields have nerdy pregame shake
There are tons of handshake routines in sports. Daps, slaps, pounds, shakes, leaps, and all sorts of varieties in between. Landry Fields and suddenly rising star Jeremy Lin of the Knicks put a unique twist on the idea. Read the book, put on the glasses, adjust the pocket protector.
Lin went to Harvard and Fields is a product of Stanford, hence the "nerdy" aspect of all...

Video: Jim Ross joins Thunder broadcast, talks wrestling
If you've been following this blog since its inception (which, if you have, sorry for not really posting consistently for the past year or so) you know of my affinity for pro wrestling. So naturally I had to post this video of legendary pro wrestling broadcaster Jim Ross sitting on on commentary during the Oklahoma City Thunder game Tuesday night against the Blazers.

Kevin Harlan introduces us to Metta World Peace
Kevin Harlan has had some very notable calls over the course of his broadcasting career, especially the "With no regard for human life" call of LeBron James' slam dunk over Kevin Garnett in the 2007 NBA Playoffs. Last night he dropped another gem during the Lakers-Jazz broadcast.

Miam Heat season intro video is a fashion show
Below is the clip of the Miami Heat intro video for this season, backed by the Kanye West song, "All of the Lights."
Everyone in the video looks like they want to be Kanye West. Was the idea to cram as many polo shirts and scarfs into this video as humanly possible? Is that why Shane Battier is wearing three polos?
Regardless, the Heat look like they won't have any...

Sources: Knicks claim PG Jeremy Lin off waivers
Sources report that the Knicks have claimed 23-year-old Harvard graduate Jeremy Lin off waivers. New York badly needed to add some guard depth after the Christmas Day injury to rookie Iman Shumpert. Baron Davis is likely out until February and old-as-stone Mike Bibby is also nursing his usual aches and pains.
Lin doesn't have terrific career stats in his short time in the NBA...

Lou Williams averts robbery, takes mugger to dinner
You may have heard about Lou Williams, guard of the Philadelphia 76ers, almost being robbed at gunpoint on Christmas Eve, only for the robber to realize who he was and not rob him because of what Williams does for the Philly community. That, in itself, is an interesting story.
It gets better, though, as Williams offered to take the man out for a bite to eat. From Bob Cooney of the...

I know, I know. Entourage is the same old thing week after week. First, the boys are up and everything's great, then they're down but somehow it all works out. Season after season, episode after episode. But I like it. Shoot me.
This season has certainly been a little dull but Sunday's seventh episode featured guest appearances by Mark Teixeira, Alex Rodriguez, Michael...

Hello, hello, hello? Is there anybody in there?
You know the drill by now. I go on a writing frenzy, then I take about three months off, and on and on it goes.
And here I am again.
My laptop had been on the fritz for a few months and I finally got around to getting a new one tonight, which seemed like a great time to get back to blogging and also a lame but well-timed excuse for why I've been out of action for a while...

I'd like to say I was preparing for the last month for this change, but really I was just playing lots of videogames, taking naps and eating too much.

Upon his arrival, McDaniels traded Jay Cutler, once thought of as the next John Elway. After starting his coaching career with six straight victories, things headed south along with the team'...

Olney: Diamondbacks trade Mark Reynolds to Orioles
According to ESPN's Buster Olney, the Diamondbacks have traded Mark Reynolds to the Orioles for minor league pitchers David Hernandez and Kam Mickolio.
Reynolds is a strikeout machine, averaging 221 per season in his four-year career, but his power will be a welcomed addition to the Baltimore lineup, joining Brian Roberts, Adam Jones, Nick Markakis and Matt Wieters.

We'll call this the first surprise of MLB's Winter Meetings, which haven't even officially started yet.
Jayson Werth, who peaked the interest of the Red Sox and Yankees, has agreed to a seven-year deal with the Washington Nationals. With Adam Dunn signing with the White Sox last week, Washington needed to replace his power in the middle of the lineup.
For Werth, though...
