You Cant Beat Kobe In Horse

Recently, on ESPN's Sportsnation something like 31% of America said they could be Kobe in a game of horse. That means 31% of America is liars. Want some proof?

Sunday night game. Lakers vs. Thunder. Kobe Ridiculousness.

Tough Break

Buffalo Bills Offensive Lineman Eric Wood suffered a BAD injury on Sunday. If you havent seen it, its probably because it was bad enough that CBS chose not to replay it. Ever.

Wood broke his Tibia and Fibula and had to undergo immediate surgery in Jacksonville after the game. He is expected to miss 8-9 months.

Here is the video. I warn you, its pretty bad. So watch at your own risk. Wood is wearing #70

TheRawSection at Colts/Ravens

Just wanted to let all the TRS readers that I am at the Colts/Ravens game today. Pretty excited to watch P Manning play but I have the Ravens in the upset. Ill be back later this evening to restore order in the universe.
(and with a shout out to the Johnny Hop football team)

Basket's That Way !

In today's NBA of the Knicks vs. Nets a rare and hilarious moment happened. If you missed the game I'm not surprised, the teams combined records are 3-22. Knicks guard Nate Robinson intentionally shot the ball at his own basket. It goes in. Then his Coach Mike D'Antoni (complete with a serious stache) gives him an earful. Thankfully (for Nasty Nate's sake), the basket didnt count.

Reminds me of my middle school basketball days. Andrew Baldwin takes an inbound pass, streaks right to the basket for an uncontested lay up. Score two for Baldwin. Score two for the other team.  At the next game someone held up a sign that read "Basket's That Way Chief!" complete with an arrow. Middle schoolers are ruthless!

Flow, Cheddar and Bag Slaps

This guy JL Productions puts together some pretty good videos. Here is one of his promo's for 2010 NCAA Lax season. Boom.

Megan Fox's Toe (or Thumb?)

OK, as men we can all agree that Megan Fox is a total babe (some at TRS are more obsessed than others). Some serious Salad. While TRS was at Susquehanna U. one of their players brought up in conversation that she had a jacked up thumb. They were SO right. I never knew. Oh well.

I warn you, if you think Megan Fox is hot, I dont want to ruin it for you.

Her

Her thumb.

TRS Goes to Southampton

TheRawSection was fortunate enough to be hosted by the Susquehanna University Baseball Team on Friday night at their school. Some of the upper level management from TRS got a chance to spend time with the players and see how the SU Baseballer's do it. They are a pretty deal around those parts and people know them (had a kid throw a perfect game last season, NO BIG). I told the guys The Raw would shout them out because they are avid readers and overall classy guys. We chatted it up about various topics such as sports, Katt Williams and Megan Fox's thumb (more on this later). Want to give a super big shout out to Kirby (Congrats on the Engagement!) who was just shutting it down like a boss. Overall, it was a great experience getting to hang out with some of our readers and hearing what they had to say.

Here is their mugshot

Quit Your Crying

Finally. The Irish national soccer team (or football, we do have European readers) are giving up on challenging the intentional hand ball no-call that happened in a World Cup Qualifying game against France. If you havent heard (how could you not have?) Thierry Henry of France touched a pass, what looked to be intentionally, with his  inside the box and passed it to a teammate who scored. That goal knotted the game at 1-1 and it stayed that way. France advanced by an aggregate score of 2-1 and the Beer Drinkers were sent home and did not qualify for the World Cup.

I cant say I am too upset about Ireland giving up. Let me get this right... Ireland wanted to go back and re-play the game (or play)? Yea, sure, lets just go back and re-do the play next week. Better yet, lets just restart the game? Yea, that will be good. News flash, Ireland, stuff happens. I agree its a horrible way to lose but its a little ridiculous to the extent they are taking it. Getting Prime Minister's and Presidents all involved. Come onnn. Thats like saying lets go back every week in the NFL and re-do all the passing TD's where a hold occurred. In the words of Borat, "Naaatttt".

An interview were Henry admitted the hand ball was intentional

The Band is On the Field (2009 Edition)

Last weekend, Pioneer High School in Woodland, CA did its best impersonation of Cal-Stanford's "The Play". Down 8-7 very late in the fourth quarter, Pioneer HS used a short pass, 3 latterals and one beautiful fake to seal the win on the games final play. The best part about the story is that Pioneer HS needed the win to get a shot at the playoffs. They won, they got in.

Ironically, both of these crazy endings happened in California. What's in the water out there?


Here is the video of the last play.



And Cal-Standfords "The Play"



 Shout out to Penn Stater Billy Lloyd for the Pionner video.

So You Wanna Be a Frat Superstar and Live Large?

We here at TRS are all about public safety and awareness. As the weekend kicks off we want to promote responsible drinking.

We present to you a video on how not to take a beer bong. This young 150lbs frat star tries to flex his beer muscles and gets dominated. Dont worry, he didnt die.

This is also another reason I am going with the Ravens over the Colts this weekend.

(Pay attention to what the on lookers are yelling in the video, too)

I'm Going to Shabooms!

Just because Kenny Powers is so Raw.

Taking It to the Face

Came across a video of a double knockdown in a Boxing match in England. Its funny and weird at the same time.

After seeing the hair cut of the guy in the black trunks it almost makes me wish this was just a video of a guy getting his face punched in. Really.

Two Guys One Stick

Last night, after the conclusion of the Anaheim Ducks game, Scott Niedermayer was just trying to be a nice guy and give his stick to a little girl in the stands. He handed his stick over the boards during the 3 stars of the game. Next thing you know, one inebriated prick cant seem to understand social norms and tries to rip the stick away from everyone. Subsequently, he jabs another guy in the face with the stick and then starts throwing haymakers. You stay classy, Anaheim.

As soon as Niedermayer hands his stick over you can see he knows how its going to turn out....

A Happy Ending

This High School football game between Chaminade and Webster groves has an unreal finish.

Some pretty solid plays by both teams. The only thing that detracts from this game is the announcer at the end who is clearly just a gym teacher working overtime.

Props to Chris Boland (6 and 2) for the vid

OchoCinco "Acts A Donkey"

Chad OchoCinco used some unique language to invite a fan on his twitter on a shopping spree. The tweet said:
"Hotel manager name is Jesse, first person to say my name Ocho Cinco to Jesse at the Marriot we about to act a donkey in the mall." Yup, Chad was going to buy Donkeys in the mall.

The lucky fan was David Anderson, who was at the hotel within 15 minutes (nerd alert). Him and OchoCinco hit the mall and began donkeying. Over 50 people ended up showing up at the hotel asking for "Jesse". The hotel fielded tons of phone calls, even 6 hours after the tweet.
