Kobe is an MVP but still an AHOLE
This is simply hilarious.
I am the first to admit that I have never liked Kobe Bryant. He is however pretty much the best player in the NBA right now. No doubt a MVP year but ever since that “incident” in Colorado, I think the world has seen his true colours. The video is just another example of that. For the life of me, I can’t even think of a reason for it. Maybe the towel was in front of him on the floor and he didn’t want to step on it and just grabbed it and tossed it without looking. It’s still funny as hell. Imagine what the woman must be thinking after getting to be on court and getting Kobe game sweat all over her face as a souvenir. Maybe she can sell it on eBay!
5 Things I Learned about Lacrosse
I was lucky enough to go to the Toronto Rock lacrosse game last night. Actually, it was my uncle who was lucky since he won the free tickets and I got to tag along. Never been to a National Lacrosse League (NLL) game before. I few friends of mine have season tickets and have always said it’s a good time. From what I saw last night, I can see why. It’s a always good start when there’s a fight in the first 2 seconds of the game, not to mention the Rock pulling out the win in the last few minutes of the game. Here are my top 5 things I learned about lacrosse in no particular order:
1. Rock and Roll isn’t dead
Took me by surprise when AC/DC’s “thunderstruck” kept playing over the loud speakers while they were playing the game. The I realized that the music never stops. It felt like I just put in MuchMusic’s “Big Shiny Tunes 2″ in my cd player.
2. It’s almost impossible to tell what is and what isn’t a penalty
There’s so much chaos with all the cross checking and smacking with the stick, when they call a penalty, it’s impossible to even tell when and where it happens. I guess you have to trust the refs.
3. Lots of kids
I imagine since tickets are probably half the cost of a Leafs game, I can see why parents bring their kids and family to these games. Not only is it cheaper but seems a hell of a lot funner since everyone actually gets into the game and acts like fans. Not the typical Toronto fans who give the golf clap during hockey and baseball games. Seems like the tons of kids there were having a great time too.
4. Barely any breaks between quarters
Each quarter, there is probably only 2:30 min for a break and half time is only 15 minutes. Games go by quick so you don’t spend time waiting around. Good idea.
5. I wish I played lacrosse back in the day
After watching a “real” game, I wish I played or at least tried lacrosse rather than that one day in high school gym class. Isn’t this supposed to be one of Canada’s Official Sports?
