Nine Days Until Music on the Mountaintop (buy tix now) so things are real busy around the Pod. But here is another Lazy post. It is backyard football at its finest.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
I wonder how many times this Vitamin Water ad will run considering the current status of their two stars. One has become notorious around Durham for bad investments and dodging taxes and the other.... well you know.

Feeling Kinda Harrison Ford-ish Today
I have no earthly idea why, but upon waking up this morning, the following things came to my mind.
1) Preseason Football is comparable to getting blue balls with the Prom Queen
2) Rick Pitino is so screwed
3) Harrison Ford Quotes are Funny
Okay so the Last One was inspired by the video below that I plucked off of FilmDrunk
If you a) thought that was funny and b) are a huge star wars nerd like me, then click here

I THOUGHT YOU GUYS WERE GOOD WITH NUMBERS
Yesterday, College Game Balls unveiled this goof by the Atlanta Journal Constitution. That Wishbone Offense better have more calculating minds than their marketing department.

SORRY FOR LAZINESS
Sorry I've been really really lazy and completely ignoring things that are sports related. Things are starting to pick up for Music on the Mountaintop and my time to create original thought is slowly being taken over by the need to share things from other parts of the web that look entertaining to me. This is one of those things.

FLASHING BACK YALL
On June 25, 2007, Kanye West (when he still had a sense of humor) debuted this alternate "Can't Tell Me Nothing" Video on his website . The Video, shot in Wilkesboro, NC takes place on Galifinakis' farm. This is the same farm where Zach retreats to write his stand up material and where reportedly he throws kick ass New Years Eve Parties where he recently had The Annuals come play.
Was talking about this video with a buddy of mine recently and I feel as though a lot of people never knew/forgot about it. But yeah, "Fat Jesus" has been doing funny shit for years.

Excited about Tucker Max?
I don't really like Dookies. And Tucker Max is a dookie (law school, but still). I'm sure college kids everywhere will go see it and it will make enough money to break budget. But still, stories about groups of dudes who go out and destroy their lives in debauchery is pretty popular right now so, what the hell, lets be trendy.

NFL HATES TWITTER
Roger Goddell already has banned "in-game tweeting" before the NFL season. Now, after an encouraging letter from the NFL, the Packers, Dolphins, and Lions have all banned tweeting from their training camps.
I feel like I say this a lot, but big freakin' deal. I follow a lot of athletes on Twitter (albeit mostly NBA) and their "tweets" are the farthest thing from informative or intelligent. However, I understand how it serves as a distraction. Just pay close attention to the back and forth "tweet war" between Rudy Gay and Andre Iguodala (it lasted almost 3 hours)
I really, really, really wish that I made this up. Seriously, these shots back and forth at each other are actually pretty funny. I really do not mind that NFL is banning it during games, but I hope that this does not set a trend for putting a muzzle on a communication device that has made athletes more entertaining for all of us.
You may argue that it is actually handled by their publicist or someone in their camp - but I will argue that it's still funny. Letterman surely doesn't write hardly any of his jokes anymore and his ass has been on the air for 35 years. (Big up to J-Fallon, but that is for another post)
(the time it took me to pull this together is both sad and pathetic, but it is the easiest way to read it for any people with not much twatting experience. the comments are written "to" the person with the@ in front of it so AI starts the convo. you can check me, they are all real)
@rudygay22 holla at me! http://www.ustream.tv/chann...
@AI9 you was there when Drake knee gave out? Lol (Knock on wood!) (Pause)
@rudygay22 man i just talkin to him and was backstage like 20 ft from him when his knee gave out! it was crazy...@AI9 yo he need to wear knee pads like Patrick Ewing@rudygay22 you need to wear some thermal capri/tights hakeem olajuwon wore in '85!
@AI9 how come when we play yall your jersey the only one made by Mitchell and Ness? I guess your game remind them of 1976@rudygay22 u got a neck brace like the one jerome james had a few yrs back...and u switch the colors of the velcro so they can match yo fit!
@AI9 I saw you on broad st in philly wit a 1984 mustard green Sabb talkin bout this a old school.@rudygay22 crickets......@rudygay22I heard when u was @ UCONN u was stealin jock straps...@AI9 you got a stripper pole in your house........... But you live with your mother!

OPTIMUS CRIME TRANSMISSION 001
(This summer, I crossed paths with a strange specimen. From being a collegiate athlete to acting to writing - he is a true Transformer. He has joined the Children of the Pod and will be making appearance writing, acting, and podcasting. Here is his first transmission --Chip)
Whats up. My name is Optimus Crime (The Original C-Brown). You can say one or the other, some say the whole thing like "A Tribe Called Quest" but I will also settle with just Optimus. I am one of the new kids on the block and my mission is to draw attention and lay down the law on some of the craziest/dumbest things that really chap my ass.
One thing that has been disturbing me since the time it came out has been the snuggie. To me, I feel like it is just an oversized backwards robe you put on.
But to make matters worse the snuggie did not stop there. They went and got bold and made a leapord print snuggie. Really? A leapord print snuggie?
Ochocinco already changed his name, and after the HOF jacket stunt and his promised production, I wouldn't be suprised to see him in a leapord print snuggie after a touchdown looking like this dude from Weezer this summer.
Anyway, these guys said it best - it's the WTF blanket.
This completes the first transmission for Optimus Crime. If you are being ridiculous you better watch your back, cause this is my world - and you just work here.
