NBA All-Star Weekend’s Best Dressed

Although, not taken from the All-Star weekend festivities, the photo above proves a point about the NBA today and where players are taking their fashion cues.  For the sake of argument, if we were playing word association and I happened to drop “NBA,” “Phoenix” and “Fashion” into the mix, I’m pretty sure images of 7-button, [...]

The 8 Best Things of 2008

2008 was a pretty awful year all around.  Economic distress, blah blah blah.  However, there were a few things worth cheering and we thought we’d recount them here in our inaugural list of the best things of 2008.  You’ll note that there’s not a lot connecting the items on this list other than the fact [...]

Brandon Jennings: Innovator

As anyone who knows me can attest, I’m an Arizona basketball fan through and through.  If I’m Bill Simmons (which I’m most definitely NOT, just go with me here), then they’re my Celtics/Red Sox/Pats wrapped into one.  Allow me to get especially Simmonsy here.  <changes voice to that of a nasally pre-teen>  Ahem, there’s a [...]

Made In America Trailer

Baron Davis is really the best.  I mean, between the beard, hipster glasses, his enormous knee brace, and one of the greatest dunks of all time, how could you not cheer for the guy?  The only way we could love him more is if he grew a jheri curl and started rocking James Worthy goggles [...]
