kenny mayne is a pretty funny dude

most of the sportscenter anchors are pretty funny. good idea.

lebron james needs his own tv show

first of all, thank you nbc for completely botching the usa argentina basketball broadcast. why does everyone (including the usa) hate the us basketball team?

whatever. i still enjoy them. one thing i have really enjoyed in particular is watching lebron james and seeing how hilarious the guy is. espn is currently running some episodes of road to redemption. basically, they follow team usa with cameras as they get ready for the olympics - and lebron is always singing, dancing, goofing around, etc.

you need an example? this actually happened during the game.

Manu Ginobili was shooting free throws, and LeBron was chatting away. Kobe had been talking to the opponents in Spanish, and LeBron said something or other to Kobe and then added “make sure they understand that.” The idea being, that Bryant was to translate some trash talk for James. Hilarious.

heres the audio clip (around the 19-20 second mark):

seriously, get this guy his own tv show. id watch it for sure.

are you ready for some football?

as a proud season ticket holder, i went to the 49ers preseason game against green bay to see how aaron rodgers would play (not bad, considering two receivers dropped two touchdowns). jt osullivan had some good throws and some bad ones. not much to get excited about there. alex smith was, well alex smith.

what you can get excited about is josh morgan, sixth round pick out of virginia tech. kid looks like he could be special (special as in not suck like as much as our other wrs).

right now youre probably thinking, whatever. i dont need your recap of a preseason game, i can get that on espn. fine. youre right. here are some pretty pictures instead:

tailgating is awesome. going to cook some burgers on this bad boy.

man, candlestick sure looks like crap. san francisco 49ers of santa clara anyone?

this is what you can see from my seat. what you cant hear is the drunk guy behind me yelling about brent jones.

you know what? it doesnt look half bad at night.

being a guy - venting

the lady recently had a lengthy phone conversation with one of her lady friends about problems that ladies go through. this was on the phone. for two hours. if im going to be the phone for two hours, i better be doing one of the following:

• on hold waiting for customer service for some sort of gizmo/toy.
• on hold waiting for sports tickets.
• both parties on the phone fell asleep in midst of a conversation (actually happened).

this reminds me of that coors light vent commercial

this would never happen in real life. ladies, let this be a lesson to you: guys do not get together and “vent.” at least, we dont openly say that we are venting. if i need to talk to one of my guy friends, im going to thinly veil it as a manly activity such as:

• hey man. want to go hit a bucket of golf balls?
• come over and play some video games
• i just got this huge tv. come watch espn on it!
• want to go shoot cans in the backyard with the bb gun?
• were grilling. bring the meat.
• lets go play some baseball.

espn ninja shirts available now!

here at casa de angry ninja, i watch a lot of espn (channel 38 on comcast, 724 for hd). i also read a lot of espn.com and espn the magazine, so you can understand where the inspiration of these next two shirts comes from. favorite things to watch on espn besides sports?

1. sportscenter - catch up on the days events.
2. around the horn - who doesnt love woody paige?
3. pti - kornheiser and wilbon = old married couple. and thats awesome.
4. e:60 - not the entire show. just the interesting segments.

least favorite?

1. jim rome is burning - and i dont care.
2. 1st and 10 - skip bayless has a voice like a whiny girl.
3. quite frankly - if i wanted to hear a guy yell angrily about things, id much rather watch chris rock.

so here they are: espn ninja shirts.

in other news, i will be at the boardwalk watching game 6 of the nba finals tonight. go celtics.
