LOL: Dwight Howard & Magic Clowing During Pregame

Dwight Howard, White Chocolate and the rest of the Magic squad put on a pretty entertaining pregame show for fans in attendance for their game in New Jersey March 5. These types of displays of unity are common throughout the NBA, most notably in Cleveland, where the LeBron and the Cavs give fans their money’s worth, before the ball is even tipped off. Playing the Nets this season is pretty much a vacation for any team that comes to town.

If you’re a true basketball fan then you can definitely appreciate these type of shenanigans from the variety of legends (of all ages) that the Magic have on their loaded roster. These dudes look like they are having fun, enjoying the game that the get big cheese to play.

There is way too many legendary things to point out so check out a decent log of all the action just in case you missed something after the jump…

LOL: Mayweather Clowns Mosley At NYC Fight Promo

As we all know, the world of sports if fueled by those that chose to talk a lot of heat, and boxing is always the prime example. As much physical as mental, boxers spend a considerable amount of time trying to play mind games and get underneath their opponent’s skin to gain any advantage that they can. When Floyd “Money” Mayweather and “Sugar” Shane Mosley headed out to NYC to promote their May 1 welterweight showdown, both men took the opportunity to try and knock the other man’s hustle before, during and after the fight.

Unfortunately Mosley looks like he is a little too punch-drunk these days and struggles to make coherent sentences, while Money Mayweather has a mouthpiece like the Southeast (see Hurricane Katrina) which is deadly. Mayweather gets the best of the verbal fisticuffs clowning Mosley’s fit, claiming it was off the rack and bragging about his own custom suits and gators. Mayweather also goes in on Sugar Shane’s ex-boo Jin, who also serves as his manager, saying that he has to pay her both manager fees and alimony. While this isn’t as funny as Floyd Sr.’s rant a while back it is definitely worth listening to.

Safe For Jerk (SFJ): Beezies Jazzercise At Suns Game

Any time I hear some Brittney Spears for some reason it makes me a little thirstier than average. Coupled with damn near 200 cougars of all shapes and sizes jazzercising in unison and there you have it–the woody is ready like spaghetti. Guaranteed their was after make-up of cougar including the Ferrari, Cadillac, Trans Am and Taurus distinctions as well as a few hoopties.

Fail: A Good Reason Why Brian Scalabrine Don’t Play

Any time an announcer says, “we have a (insert name) spotting,” that means you get no burn.

Tis tough Brian Scalabrine. After riding the pine for the better part of this season, the former USC star was thrust into action during a recent Celtics game at the Blazers, broadcast on ESPN, which means heads were watching. I had some action so a missed this one, but no biggie because I got my nut or whatever as the young kids like to say.

After checking into the game with a few seconds remaining in the 3rd quarter, Scalabrine was posed with the daunting task of inbounding the ball to a teammate who was wide open. Unfortunately Scalabrine must have smoked a little bit of that oxygen before the game (for those wondering how you can smoke oxygen, that’s what I’m saying) as he inexplicably passed the ball to the Blazers Jerryd Bayless, who easily scored a bucket.

Scalabrine did actually manage to start 3 games this season, but is only averaging just over one point in 9 minutes per game. After a miscue like this, it would be understandable if the Celtics no longer needed Scalabrine’s services in the near future, but Doc Rivers is compassionate so he probably gave him a pass, but hopefully not like the one Scalabrine did.

Ghettooh: Steve Alford Calls BYU Player An A-Hole

What is it about the University of New Mexico that makes players and coaches want to get into some gangster ‘ish? First it was rookie football head coach Mike Locksley getting suspended for 10 days after choking out one of his assistant coaches. Then it was women’s soccer player Elizabeth Lambert debo’ing a player (coincidentally from BYU) during a loss in the Mountain West tourney. And now Steve Alford has joined the list after being caught on camera calling BYU senior forward Jonathan Tavernari an A-hole following the Lobos conference-clinching win Saturday night.

During the customary postgame handshakes, which are supposed to promote good sportsmanship, Alford and Tavernari got into a heated exchange as the coach followed the opposing player down the line as he was shaking hands. You can tell that Tavernari is the type of player that can definitely get under your skin, with a swag that could be mistaken for being a little too cocky. Tavernari tried to ease the tension by going into the Lobos locker room to apologize, but either way Alford is going to experience some moderate heat now that everybody has access to the tape.

The Mountain West is currently investigating the matter and guaranteed Alford will be forced to issue some form of public apology and be subject to reprimand by school officials. Alford’s punishment shouldn’t be too severe though because Tavernari really might be an A-hole and if Locksley only got 10 days for choking a dude and his team is nastier than all hell, then a Mountain West regular season title should only mean a slap on the wrist.

LOL: ESPN Crank-Yanked By Fake Brian Westbrook

After the Eagles released their (once) stud running back Brian Westbrook Tuesday, ESPN spent most of the early evening promoting a phone convo that they were going to have with Westbrook live on Sportscenter. Unfortunately the World Wide Leader was the victim of one of your sicker ookie dokes in recent history. The gag was evident almost immediately after anchor Scott Van Pelt introduced (who he thought was) Westbrook on the line and the voice that began talking sounded something like a Jersey meathead.

It was none other than Captain Janks, a Howard Stern flunky who has made a name for himself impersonating people to get on television, whilst always dropping a Stern reference at some point to let the network that foolishly put him on the air know that they have been had. The fact that someone could

LOL: Snowboarder Uses Medal To Score Chick

We have to give it up to this legend, USA snowboarder Scotty Lago, who after winning a bronze medal decided it would be a good idea to take it to the concrete in Vancouver to see if he could get a little action. And a little action he got, with this decent beezy who is probably best reserved for those late nights, when all other options have failed–also known as a last resort. Maybe if Lago won the gold, he could have secured the services of something closer to, if not a dime, but when you’re the 2nd loser, this is what you are relegated to.

Unfortunately for Lago, these somewhat humorous photos weren’t found so funny by the USOC, who basically forced Lago to issue an apology for publicly trying to get some action. Lago also decided to bounce from the Olympic Village, which had to be one of the hardest decisions of his life considering that the Village is usually a raging orgy of some of your more highly-skilled and thirstier athletes from across the country. After athletes finish with competition they generally are looking for someone to help them get their proverbial nut. Lago had to learn the hard way about the importance of keeping things on the DL.

WTF? Ray-J’s Salty Voicemail For Reggie Bush

So apparently Ray-J is a little salty at Reggie Bush for all of his recent caking of his current boo Kim Kardashian, who just happens to be Ray-J’s ex. Allegedly he left this voicemail for Reggie a few days ago and after some difficult negotiations, The Chaser was able to acquire a copy of said voicemail. Hopefully you enjoy listening to it as much as we do, cause we still got the tape as well.
