Passing on some links edition!
1) Tom Ziller of NBA Fanhouse has been doing a top fifty players in the NBA writeup. Ziller is a smart basketball analyst, so even if you don't agree with his rankings, you should read his writeups for each player (he's up 43 as I'm writing this.)
2) This is from a couple of years ago - I got the link reading FreeDarko - but it is awesome. It compares college football teams to rappers. For example, Penn State/KRS One. "They'll be the first to tell you how important they are in the scheme of things and new jacks need to give them respect, but that doesn't shake the fact that they haven't been relevant in years."
3) Watch this YouTube video of the intros to the 1989 All Star Game. It's the Ultramagnetic MCs rapping aout each player, and coach. Even the trainer. It's beyond awesome (thanks, Ball Don't Lie and Detroit Bad Boys)
4) Kelly Dwyer taking on Larry Brown.
5) From Bethlehem Shoals in SLAM Magazine comes a pretty hilarious series of columns called "Portraits in Patriotism". Read them all now, or maybe you simply hate freedom and apple pie and your mother?

That all-star rap introduction was ridiculously dated, ridiculous and funny all at the same time. Nice find.
