I didn’t want to believe that this was a real video, but damn it is. Once upon a time, Steve Francis was one of the most explosive and prolific point guards in the NBA. A short time after his career has come to an end, Steve Francis is rapping (terribly) and making Murder Inc. tribute […]

One of Hip-Hop’s biggest sports enthusiasts, Wale, chopped it up with Skip Bayless and Rob Parker on ESPN’s First Take. Wale gets on the very good side of a certain Hip-Hop Wired editor by saying that the Knicks have what it takes to go to the Eastern Conference Championship. Mr. Folarin also bets his dreadlocks […]

Today, Metta World Peace once again became crazy Ron Artest from Queensbridge. During the Lakers vs. Thunder game, World Peace threw down a dunk and while celebrating James Harden made the mistake of being in the vicinity of the Tru Warier Records rapper/basketball player. After pounding his chest, World Peace sent a vicious elbow toward […]

Gentlemen’s Quarterly magazine carries on tradition by having an NBA player grace it’s cover just in time for the playoffs. In years’ past it has been Kobe Bryant and LeBron James, but this year it is Chicago Bulls point guard and reigning MVP, Derrick Rose, snatching the cover. Rose spoke on his new found celebrity […]

Before Carmelo Anthony and the New York Knicks stepped on the court to give the Washington Wizards a 103-65 drumming Friday night, the star forward extended an invitation to the family of Trayvon Martin, who was tragically shot and killed by “Neighborhood volunteer” George Zimmerman. Trayvon’s family was in New York for an interview with CNN to speak […]

The only logical explanation that Charles Barkley can derive from Lamar Odom‘s stint in Dallas is that the Queens native never got over his departure from Los Angeles. According to Barkley the Dallas Mavericks shouldn’t be forced to pay the rest of the 13-year veteran’s salary, and the fact that they do disgusts him.

Ozzie Guillen, the outspoken former manager of the Chicago White Sox, once again finds himself in the media spotlight after the eccentric baseball veteran spoke somewhat favorably of former Cuban dictator Fidel Castro in a Time magazine interview. The Marlins suspended Guillen for five days after comments he made saying he admired the oppressive leader […]

One day after announcing his intentions to enter the NBA Draft in June, Ohio State’s star forward Jared Sullinger, has had a pretty incriminating photo of himself hit the net. DeAnn Smith, who is believed by most outlets to be Sully’s girlfriend, is the one who leaked the photo. Sullinger recently spoke about the pic […]

You want to feel extremely uncomfortable for four minutes? In this video Magic coach Stan Van Gundy addresses the media while preparing to play the New York Knicks and admits that his star player, Dwight Howard wanted him fired.

The NFL sure knows how to give you something to talk about during the offseason. While not on the same scale as Peyton Manning’s drama, the Tebow trade and Bounty-gate, Nike’s unveiling of their new NFL jerseys were met with with quite a bit of fanfare for such minimal visual changes. Outside of the Seattle […]

When a freshman Michael Jordan hit the jumper that helped his UNC squad win the 1982 national championship, he was wearing Converse. Thirty years later (damn), Converse and Jordan Brand are celebrating the shot that ushered in his Airness with a super limited edition commemorative pack. Each pack comes with the gear MJ rocked when […]

Just like Diggy trying to lyrically fade J. Cole, this is no April Fool’s Day joke. Star NBA guard Russell Westrook was mic’d up for today’s OKC Thunder vs. Chicago Bulls game and was heard singing along to Nicki Minaj’s “Starships” as it was playing on the arena’s PA system. We’ll give Westbrook a past off […]
