NBA news........... (1 Viewer)

isn't...
or shouldn't there be...

clauses in professional athelete's contracts that bar them from doing crazy things like this...

doesn't Big Ben have a clause about motorcycles?

I thought crazy activities like sky diving...or drag racing were standard "no-nos" in their contracts...

why on earth would the Clippers condone Griffin doing this...he's half the franchise???

golf and ping pong seems pretty safe...

dunking over cars...not so much...
 
probably belongs in the NFL post...as Tom Brady is the star of this video..

but I'm gonna let this follow my last "athletes and crazy/dangerous stunts they do off the field/court"...

http://www.foxsports.com/nfl/story/tom-brady-jumps-off-tall-cliff-in-costa-rica-032815

if you turn the volume up real high...and listen closely...

you can almost hear Kraft...Belichick and the entire New England fan base scream in unison...

"don't do it Tom"...
 
A lot of teams have clauses prohibiting these kinds of activities. I remember Jim Lonborg of the Red Sox hurting himself skiing after the 1967 season where the Red Sox were in the WS for the first time in over 20 years. I can't completely recall but that injury may have cost them the 1968 pennant.

is that list from top to bottom...or bottom to top...
 
Top to bottom; if I could find other things to stick in there to rank NBA basketball lower, I would.

What's the deal with all these players wearing leggings, is that some sort of fashion statement; if it is, it's a weaksauce look, idiotic is more like it.

Watching the Wisconsin players wearing the white ones running up and down the court the other night was painful, please make it stop.........................
 
"Weaksauce Look" that is a classic!!!!

GO SPURS GO!!!!

John from Texas
 
George, you forgot about the exciting game of chess!
All that back and forth action, the unending tension, the well executed hand movements and of course the Cheerleaders! :wink2:

You've seen me at OTSN; do I look like I come from the South?

Or the Midwest?

..........;).

Tell you what though; had one of the best weeks of my life the time I visited a friend of mine in Horseshoe Bay Texas.....................those Texas women loved the Boston accent.

Among other things..........................I needed a vacation after that vacation.

I can't believe bird watching is so far down your list...that is one thrilling sport!

you haven't experienced one of life's greatest thrills...

until you have heard the mating call of the Red Billed Hondurin Emerald Hummingbird...

Well, rather than looks, pe se, I'd go by accent (chowduh) or attire (black clothing, man jewelry) maybe hair (slicked). Those are not southern things, generally.

Midwest wise, you were not sporting farming overalls so in the clear there too... :)
 
seems like an incredibly long wait for the Championship series to start...has it always been 7-8 days wait in the past?
 
I don't think so. I think it's because the Hawks and Rockets were sent packing easily.

I think it should be an exciting series, very close.
 
I have LeBron exhaustion. Pulling for Golden State. From some reason I always see the Warriors as some kind of wacky 70's team with the likes of Rick Barry and his underhand FTs. The California Seals of the NBA who managed to survive instead of getting shuffled off into history.
