The Wunder WHAT?!? You wont believe this.
20 JanRoyal Rumbles: Fans vs. Players
19 JanWatching some loser Clemson fan imitate Triple H and DDT Wake center Chas McFarland last Saturday made us think about other Fans vs. Players battles that have taken place. Yes, the Ron Artest vs. the entire Pistons fanbase is included.
Some dude gets a little too close to Kip Brennan
Whos the worst of the worst?
19 Jan
The normally egotistical Kobe Bryant recently stated that he thinks LeBron James is the NBA MVP so far this season. A couple things come to mind immediately:
1. Duh.
2. We obviously agree; but more importantly, we want to know who would be crowned the NBA’s anti-Lebron James. If Lebron is THE best of the best, who is the worst of the worst? We know the LVP (Least Valuable Player) award has never been actually handed out. But that doesn’t mean that it shouldn’t be. Luckily, The Max is here to formally award the crown of LVP to one very deserving NBA “star.” But before we do that, here are some of the runners-up:
- Eddy Curry (NY Knicks): Despite clocking only three minutes of playing time this season, Chubs is cashing a check worth more than $9.5 million. We’re not so good with the math, but we do know that’s a lot of coin per minute. Have a salad, by the way.
- Jerome James (NY Knicks): $6.2 million this year to play in two games… that’s it, two games. Adding to his uselessness, James reportedly suffered some sort of girly injury on Sunday that will keep him out for the rest of the season. Not for nothin’, but wasn’t he out for the rest of the season anyway?
- Danilo Gallinari (NY Knicks): Who thought drafting this piason 6th overall was a good idea? If you’re keeping score at home, he’s getting more than $2.8 million this season and he’s only played three games.
Are you seeing a pattern here? Yes, they are all members of the Knicks. And no, we are not being biased. Taking everything into account, the above three names are legitimately three of the least valuable players in the NBA.
But there can only be one LVP. And the winner is:
Only in America can you get paid more than $28 million to do absolutely nothing. Congrats, Steph.
Report: Super Bowl commercials more hype than laughs
19 Jan
GoDaddy.com ads might be the biggest offenders. They’re awful. If you don’t know which ones they are, they feature WWE Diva Candice Michelle (picture in all of her airbrushed beauty below), who looks more and more plastic as each aging year passes. We wish GoDaddy.com commercials would pull a Vince Young and just vanish.
But the commercials are, in our humble opinion, a perennial disappointment. Simply because businesses pay top dollar ($3 million for a 30-second slot) doesn’t mean they produce — and they’re certainly not the main reason to watch the Super Bowl!
You get the idea. However, there are some redeeming ads, and if you have some spare time on your hands, check out some of the funnier ones on YouTube courtesy of superbowl-ads.com. Too lazy to click on the superbowl-ads link? Just watch these top ten from last year that someone already put on the web. They’re not all good, but they’re apparently the best…
What do you think? Please don’t tell us you look forward to the ads… Email us
Colbert joins club, rips Mets
16 JanIn a recent edition of The Colbert Report, Steve Colbert joined in on the fun of destroying the Mets for their ridiculous new commemorative patch. In his rant, he also shows a screen grab from Yahoo! Sports where the site compares the logo to the Domino’s Pizza logo. Over the past week, it appears everybody is giving credit to Yahoo! for coming up with this (Not for nothing, but The Max posted the same exact thing 3 HOURS prior to Yahoo! Check it out).
Check out the time stamp. We posted at 12:50 p.m. Our first comment was at 2:08 p.m. They posted after 5 p.m. (seen here). Not that we are bitter or anything. We’re still big fans of Yahoo’s Big League Stew, and always will be. We would just like a reply to the email we sent to them. That’s all (the e-mail was very friendly, by the way).
Oh yeah, the video. Here’s it is:
