What the WHAT!?!?

This is one of the coolest, sickest kitchen gadgets I have ever seen!!!

I love it!! It’s a kitchen knife block that is shaped like a human head. This is so awesome, unless of course you are offended by this, then it’s disgusting and I am sickened by it.

The Classic University Scholarship Goes To....

In a world full of players like Brandon Marshall, Terrell Owens, Adam Pacman Jones and recently sentenced Plaxico Burress, it feel good to know there are some good people out there who care more about the team than about than themselves.

Let me introduce you to one, meet Mississippi State hoops center Jarvis Varnado, who has led the nation in blocks for two years straight, and propelled the Bulldogs to an SEC title and NCAA Tournament appearance last season.

That may seem like a big deal but suddenly he is playing as a walk-on. What happened to his scholarship?

Here is where Jarvis just earned himself a Classic University Scholarship.

With incom

ing players John Riek and Renardo Sidney both signed by the Bulldogs for this coming season, coach Rick Stansbury found himself one scholarship player over the NCAA limit of 13.

So Varnado put his name in the NBA draft, thus giving up his scholarship, with the understanding that he could then take out a loan to pay for his senior year of school.

Unbelievable…..Jarvis went into debt so that another player could attend college, and the Bulldogs could get that much stronger.

Varnado tested the NBA Draft waters before withdrawing in May. Now, he’s like quite a few of his classmates — indebted to student loans for the $5,151 that it costs for a full-time undergraduate student per year at Mississippi State.
Bracky Brett, MSU’s associate athletic director for compliance, said the arrangement is OK by NCAA rules and is no different than when any of State’s
other walk-ons incur student loan debt to pay their way through school.
If Sidney and/or Riek are not cleared, Varnado could be placed back on State’s
scholarship roll.
But for now, Varnado, who led the nation in blocked shots
the last couple of years, appears to be the leading candidate for the title of
nation’s best non-scholarship player.

Jarvis Varnado, you sir are a product of the Oldschool, where team comes first and home of those that know that if you do right by others its comes back to you. I salute you Jarvis Varnado and offer you a scholarship to the Classic University.

Madden 10 making it rain...

Most games available for online consoles like the Xbox 360 and PS3 let players download special bonus content for a nominal fee.

But with a massive list of game-enhancing tweaks on offer -- many of which amount to little more than typical game cheats -- does the upcoming blockbuster Madden NFL 10 charge too much for too little?

Money, Money, Money, Money...Money.
Gaming blog Joystiq points out some of the game's quirkier downloadable items, which include everything from simple one-time enhancements (letting a severely injured player fully recover, giving all players a 10% stat boost for one play) to the more robust "Elite Status" download. For $5, Elite Status will let players "access exclusive VIP lobbies, leaderboards and play the all new Elite Gametype," which is essentially a tougher difficulty setting.

In other words, you'll pay $60 for the game, then an additional $5 if you want to enjoy the sum of its features.

That kind of nickel-and-diming has in the past proven irksome. Shortly after releasing their award-winning role-playing game The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, publisher Bethesda unveiled their first piece of downloadable content: armor for a character's horse. Though priced at a meager $2.50, gamers were outraged at what was considered at the time to be an act of gouging them for extra cash for content that should have been in the game from the outset. Similar complaints were aimed toward game maker Capcom over a downloadable extra mode in their hit game Resident Evil 5, as well as EA for a $5 "unlock everything" cheat code in the skateboarding sim Skate 2.

What do you think about this?

Introducing... the THiPhone!

The Thiphone, it looks ludicrous? The Thiphone ($30), it is a holder for your iPhone that wraps around your thigh and lets you use your iPhone with one hand whilst sitting down. And You also use your hands for other stuff. For Commuters or Truckers or For Frequent Flyers, or maybe some guys will love it.

It features design to set on your thigh at an angle so that your iPhone toward your face. This makes watching a movie on a plane comfortable and it also positions the microphone and speaker for better use the speakerphone option.

WOOOOOOOW!!!!

Not sure if this is real or not...to honest it can't be real...but this is one the coolest things I have ever seen!!!

Catch me if you can!

THIS VIDEO....

SPAWNED THIS VIDEO...

Both are great, although the latter is very suspect...YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!!

What the WHAT!?!?!

For all those that don't know, this is J. Alexander. And for all those with eyes, yes, he is a man...or of the male species...or he was born a man...yeah that's better.

PACKING HEAT!?!

An obese inmate in Texas has been charged after officials learned he had a gun hidden under flabs of his own flesh.

Twenty-five-year-old George Vera was charged with possession of a firearm in a correctional facility after he told a guard at the Harris County Jail about the unloaded 9mm pistol. The Houston Chronicle reported Thursday that Vera was originally arrested on charges of selling illegal copies of compact discs.

The 500-pound man was searched during his arrest and again at a city jail and the county jail, but officers never found the weapon in his rolls of skin. Vera admitted having the gun during a shower break at the county jail.

I was going to say something about this but, I really don't need to...he was able to get a gun in to a prison by hiding it in his rolls of fat. END OF STORY!!!

I take that back....I do have something say...first off he told a prison guard he did it, then he didn't even bring bullets under all that fat. What an idiot!! First you tell on yourself and keep the good for nothing evidence.

You could have sold that gun for tons of cigarettes and then use those cigarettes to get some money and use the money to buy some food from the prison commissary to support his habit...EATING HABIT!!! DUMMY!!
