This year edition Madden football goes over the top. After you win the big game it takes over two minutes to take you through the celebration. It takes you from Roger Goodell presenting the Vince Lombardi Trophy, to the victory parade, to President Obama hosting the team at the White House. But this video is completely unrealistic. I mean, come on...the Lions?
If only the No Fun League would allow a little creativity in celebrations we could end up with classics like this. The best part of the video is that these guys KNOW they are complete dorks and don't care one bit. They scored in a game where matches end 0-0 and they are going to have some fun.
This man is my new hero. Who says you have to speak eloquently, coherently, or let alone make any sense at all to be Tennessee's governor? If, by some miracle, he wins, I can't wait until his first State of the State address. It will be magical.
In last night's Twins game J.J. Hardy got picked off, but thanks to a neat little attempt at getting around the tag, was called safe. Ty Wigginton explodes and gets tossed, and when Hardy comes around to score later, Oriole's manager Juan Samuel takes on the home plate umpire and gives us the performance of a lifetime.
This guy just wanted to pet the kitty and the kitty just wanted to pet the guy back...with his teeth and claws. Next time, just go to the animal shelter. Those cats are a little more manageable and eat less of you.
That does it. Between this Argentinian girl and that incredibly hot Brazillian chick, I am moving to South America and becoming a soccer fan. On second thought, scratch that second thing. I'll just move there.
You would think, if you were a part of a World Cup team, that there are TV cameras on you for every second you are in the stadium. German team coach Jogi Löw forgot that fact. He was caught digging for gold and ingesting his treasure.
Ok, ok, we get it. It's cooler to have a Olympic gold medal than it is to have a silver. Anaheim Ducks center and Canadian Olympic champion Ryan Getzlaf has reminded teammate and red-blooded American Bobby Ryan of that fact every day. It's time for payback...USA style.
This 23-year-old Maplewood man just wanted some drugs. So, while welding a 2-foot-long machete, he hopped the counter at a St. Paul Walgreens, grabbed about $9000 worth of drugs at tried to hop back over. He did get back over on the second try, but I think it you are headed for the door, if you drop something, just let it go. Maybe he should have spent less time doing drugs and more time training his mind and body to kill his son in a machete fight.
This 10-year-old New Yorker put on 215 pairs of underwear in 18 minutes. Now most people think that he did it to break the world record of 200 pairs of skivvies. The real reason was to protect himself from creepy Uncle Carl.
This kitten is doubly cute. It has two noses, four eyes, two mouths, and four legs. Usually this defect is fatal, but this little guy seems to be doing pretty well by himself.
Ever since "The Bus" left the NFL he hasn't been much of anywhere, except TV commercials, talk shows, and CBS NFL Sunday. Now he's on to turtle racing. Part one includes the basic rules of this prestigious event and the history of the sport.
If you are having a crappy day watch this video. It is so cute it will make you poop rainbows for a week.

Sven, take notice. This is how you get awesome ratings. Although your perfectly styled hair is doing a pretty good job.
This pooch for popped by this car on the freeway and the driver, thinking he killed the dog, drove for another half hour before stopping at a body shop. Imagine those wrench monkeys' faces when they get the car up on the lift and see this. Not the bloody mess they were expecting that's for sure.
Ever since the Twins moved outside there have been a flurry of new stars on the field...Animals. First there was Kirby the Kestrel and now it's Herbie the squirrel.
This bus driver has been fired for just not being able to hold it. The video is a little grainy, the the enormous bags of poop make up for it.
The Memphis Redbirds had a very special guest throw out the first pitch... A baby Tyrannosaurus Rex. It went about as well as you think.
It's so refreshing to see a player who's in the fire of the play-offs and still takes time to enjoy wathing his shows. KG does he best to explain the show "Lost" to his teammate during a game no less. With the finale coming up on Sunday, The Big Ticket is doing his best to get everyone filled in in time for his watching party.
Congratulations to Grigol from Lakeville for identifying this sound sight-unseen. It earned him 2 tickets to KoRn. And maybe, if you play your cards right, it could net you a couple bucks from a stupid friend.
Last week, while the Twins were getting shutout by the Orioles, you may have heard a few more cheers than you might expect in a shutout. For that, you can thank the newest mascot at Target Field, Kirby the Kestrel. He found a home perched on the right field foul pole and spends night games snagging moths out of the air. He was WAY more entertaining than the game.
Yesterday during the news we heard of a family who had to call 911 because a ornery squirrel wouldn't let them out of their house. I hope this is the same squirrel, because if it's not, we are going to have a problem...a very cute furry problem of a million squirrel army taking over the world.
The Vikings drafted QB Joe Webb in the 6th round in the hopes of turning him into a wide receiver. This video may have helped in that decision. What few people know is that when he was in high school he had his lower legs replaced with bed springs.
It is the NBA Play-Offs and everyone is pulling out all the stops, even Milwaukee Bucks mascot Bango. He saved up his biggest and a craziest dunk of the year for last Monday. And wow, am I impressed....and so should you.
This bullfight was going well enough until the bull, named Navegante, got a little smarter. He embedded his horn 4 INCHES into matador Jose Tomas's groin and lifted him off of the ground. If that doesn't give you a visual this video sure will.
This guy is so excited to watch his Lakers during this post-season. I take that back, he's more excited to see Kobe, and talk to him, and share feeling with him, and be one with him, forever and ever.
The top ten baseball plays of the year are quickly being filled with plays that have no hope of being bested. First, Mark Buehrle, then Paul Maholm, now the college kids are getting in the mix. Fordham University's Brian Kownacki pulled a Willie "Mays" Hayes a la "Major League II," and didn't slide.
Mark Buehrle started the month of amazing plays with his opening day blind-sided glove-handed football snap. Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Maholm may not have one-upped the Sox hurler, but he did something more. While making this incredible play he taught children a safety lesson..."Stop, drop and roll."
Last Friday, Florida Atlantic University and Western Kentucky got caught in a rain delay, and during their extensive break they came up with some fun ways to keep occupied. What transpired was even better than the greatest NCAA baseball game ever could have been.
Our favorite defensive end (sorry Ray Edwards) was out at a bar with his fiancee last month, when another guy asked her to dance. When she said no, he called her a word that rhymes with the job that Chris Kluwe does. Jared then, very understandably, went off on the guy.
After the Caps got stunned in overtime against the Habs, this fan decided he doesn't want to be on TV.
In August of 2009, the Star Wars Uncut project began. The original film was cut down into 472 15-second clips and nerds signed up to recreate them however they saw fit. Some used LEGOS while others played a little dress-up. People could claim up to three clips. Their next project? The Empire Strikes Back of course.
Who knew that migraines could do this to someone. Let's just hope this doesn't happen to Percy Harvin.
Look, I know that soccer goals don't happen all the time. I know that if you do get to score one, it is European law that both you and the announcer must go absolutely insane. But under no circumstances should you ever run over to the oppositions' fans and expect anything less than this guy got.
Talk about a fig-fish story... Dan Olmanson was fishing on the Rainy River earlier this month and caught a 67-inch long sturgeon which weighed 125 pounds and took three people to land it. Olmanson says all they had was a walleye net.
Wednesday night this light, that streaked across at least 4 states, sparked a number of phone calls to authorities. The most likely culprit? Superman... or a meteor.
The very funny SNL Alumni, actor, and comedian stopped in to talk about his long career, his weekend of shows at the HoCom, and all the positive energy...the real good vibe. This show is like a carousel. You put in the quarter, you go up and down, and around...circular, the music the flow. All good things.
Tiger's back...and Nike has comeout with a new ad that is very confusing and leaves me wondering..."How many more ladies out there did he nail?"
After one day of league wide play, the Chicago White Sox Pitcher pulls out the greatest play I have ever seen.
Evidently things are pretty kinky a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...
Leave it to the Yankees to have a player that requires a change in the rules of our national pastime. Two years ago, before Pat Venditte was making the Yank's roster, he was making his minor league debut with the Staten Island Yankees. Venditte, who can throw both right-handed and left-handed, faced a switch hitter. Hilarity ensued.
Yesterday we showed you the two trailers for possibly the greatest action movie of all time. Here is the second best, and since it's based on a show from the 80's you know it's super-awesome.
This may be the greatest movie of all time. Jason Statham, Dolf Lundgren, Jet Li, Mickey Rourke, Bruce Willis, Schwarzenegger, and Stallone all team up in a shoot' em up, throw 'em down action flick that looks so fantastic, every other film for the year should just stop production...All of next year's Oscars are spoken for.
Time to get a new last name. Head coach Jim Playfair from the AHL's Abbatsford Heat lost it last week when he didn't agree with the refs decision to eject one of his players. And when I say lost it...I mean he went off the effin deep end.
The epic story of the greatest songwriter/singer/accordion player ever. Who knew he went through so much...Drugs, Madonna, and alcoholism. OK....so it's not "real," but we can all dream...can't we?
This guy should have listened better. The White House page said that the bathroom was through the THIRD door on the left...not that one.
This is a bad thing to watch if your job description includes the words "dump truck," "crash," "cement wall," and "live to tell about it."
Last year, I got a season pass to Buck Hill with the thinking that I could have used it through March. Now, I'm screwd thanks to the uber-warm month we are in. So I thought I'd show you all the cool crashes I COULD have had this month.
It doesn't matter if Alexandria won 4 straight titles and this kid scored every goal. At his 10 year reunion this is what they will ALL remember.
At a resort in Colorado instead of flooding the solid ground they have to be all cute and skate on a million gallons of water. So last week when they had to resurface it, they never thought, "Hey it's been pretty warm out, let's not put this ton of steel on the ice." Too bad...but not for us, because this is hilarious.
Uncle Jim had one too many cocktails at the rehearsal dinner, now someone gave him a microphone. Someone help us, but first, let me videotape this...
