Sunday Sundown Rundown - 4/26/15

3 Up

1. President Obama's White House Dinner Speech - It's been pretty funny to watch President Obama take the approach of not caring about media backlash on the home stretch of is Presidential term. This was proven in an absolutely hilarious speech during the White House correspondents dinner. Really funny stuff.

2. LeBron James' Full Court Shot - A one handed full court shot. Um, yeah, he threw a basketball like a quarterback...with ease! This dude is supreme. MUST WATCH!

3. Alex Gordon - This catch is worth it. Wow.

3 Down

1. Nepal Earthquake - After an earthquake rocked Nepal, the nation is now dealing with as many as 2,100 people feared dead. 

2. Baltimore Riots - Gosh, another death of a black man, this time dying in custody. And it seems the city of Baltimore has turned ugly with riots on the basis of #BlackLivesMatter. Again, the rioting is idiotic and does nothing for the true problem at hand. 

3. Bruce Jenner Interview - I'm probably going to get flack for this, but who cares? Seriously, why is our culture so enamored with this story and the Kardashians?

1 Moronic

1. Baby Tattoo Guy - When stupidity goes to a whole new level.

2025 NBA All-Star Weekend - "Throw this format in the trash"

There's no other way to put this, the NBA has a serious problem on their agenda going forward regarding All-Star Weekend. What was once the standard for All-Star presentations and must-watch television has quickly turned into social criticism and an entity that undoubtedly reminds fans of what used to be.  Simply put, NBA All-Star Weekend is broken.  I don't want to pile on like we expect the talking heads and personalities to do. This is fixable. Like everything else in sports. However, this...what we experienced tonight, is not it.  Other quick thoughts on the 2025 NBA All-Star Weekend:  The Skills Challenge was cool when it was first introduced. Now, it's become over-produced. The map of the floor, the gadgets involved, and even the rules...just ask Chris Paul and poor Victor Wembanyama.  By the way, the constant camera focus on both of them following the "disqualification" had such "Principal Office" vibes.  The Three-Point content remains the purest...

Sunday Sundown Rundown - 1/19/25

3 Up 1. Israel and Hamas Ceasefire Agreement - This seems like a pretty big deal considering all of the layers that come with this conflict. Ending this peacefully is of the utmost importance.  2. Bob Uecker - Legend. I'll forever remember Uecker for his role in the Major League movies. In some ways, baseball would be awesome if we had more announcers like him. Except, you realize the dude was one of a kind.  3. MLK Weekend - The weekend is always reflective of how far we've come. It has a different vibe this year, but is still salient for us all to realize.   3 Down 1. Home Insurance - It's a shame how insurance companies are finding their way out of coverage for floods, fires, and other natural disasters. Especially after the recent fires in LA, home insurance coverage has to be examined further 2. Extreme Weather - Some crazy things are happening all over the Globe. Have been for a while.  3. Meta Changes - Well, as the Presidential administration changes, w...
