Daily Dunk: Al Horford
Even though he didn't get to 100% victimize the defender, he definitely tried to...dude just got out the way. I would like to say that I'm thoroughly disappointed in the Hawks efforts this round. I need to see my boy 'Mal get into the second round at least.
Download: 8Ball & MJG ft. Bun B. "I Don't Give A F*ck"
Good to see these two back on the scene. They also have another track featuring T.I. that leaked but I wasn't feeling it at all. This is off 8Ball & MJG's upcoming album "Ten Toes Down."
Produced by David Banner

Bruins Hockey Rules Commercials
The Boston Bruins put these commercials out sometime... I have no idea when. It's hockey, I don't really pay attention. But a buddy showed them to me and I thought they were pretty good. I like the pro-violence attitude that the marketing department has taken.

Throwback Thursday: "New York, New York" -- Tha Dogg Pound
This track was released at the height of the East Coast/West Coast beef. And although the song itself is a slightly subliminal attack, the video's imagery of Snoop, Daz, and Kurupt being bigger than the NY skyline itself was an unquestionable smack in the face of their Big Apple rivals. The very presence of the LA rappers in the streets of New York City was a bold move—so much so that, on the second day of filming, there was a failed drive-by attempt on Snoop and his entourage.
And these youngins in the game today think they know beef. Psshhh...

Green Means GO
These days, being environmentally responsible is looking more and more enticing. First Jack Daniels proved that getting bourbon-drunk is good for the planet. And now, that mom-&-pop shop over in Maranello have decided that making your morning commute more eco-friendly doesn't have to mean making it lame (or, you know...lamer than it already is).
Meet the Ferrari 599GTB HY-KERS Hybrid Concept (this ain't your father's Prius).

Meet the Ferrari 599GTB HY-KERS Hybrid Concept (this ain't your father's Prius).
On the color wheel, green is directly opposite red, the unofficial official color of Ferrari. That's fitting, since, on the rare occasions that they're fired up, the Italian supercar maker's big engines aren't the most fuel efficient. But among Ferrari's latest creations is the stunning 599GTB HY-KERS hybrid concept, introduced at this year's Geneva auto show. Yes, a Ferrari hybrid, displayed at the show in a brash satin-green hue that even a tree frog might have a tough time pulling off.
However patronizing the color choice, the 599GTB hybrid's greenness is more than skin-deep. A 100-hp electric motor mounted to the seven-speed dual-clutch transmission helps reduce CO2 emissions and increase fuel efficiency (although it's unclear by how much). Ferrari says the motor will drop the car's 0-to-124-mph time from 7.9 to 7.5 seconds...

Daily Dunk: Russell Westbrook
Despite what the outcome of the Lakers vs. Thunder first round series is, this dunk by Westbrook on Lamar Odom is the perfect play to describe the Thunder's sudden rise to the top in the NBA.

B-Rush is a Pittsburgh emcee rising through the ranks. Beat goes hard and the hook features a nice Lil Wayne sample.

Play to the Buzzer
Basketball has been in Czechoslovakia for some time now, I'm sure, but that doesn't mean that all of the fundamentals are necessarily ingrained in their pro teams. And waiting until the clock has ticked "0:00" to celebrate would seem to be a pretty obvious one, at least for American sports fans.

New $100 Bill Dropping
In an effort to decrease counterfeits, the US government has designed a new 100 Dollar Bill. The new bill has plenty of features, including 3D security ribbons and threads, color-shifting numbers, hidden microprint text and subtle watermark images.
The money will begin circulating February next year.

Where to Work: Best Employers
I know that in our changing economy everyone is looking for better jobs and more security, including myself. I came across this article listing the "Best Big Companies to Work For," which to no one's surprise are mostly tech companies. If only we all started working for Microsoft in the 80's.

Video: Ciara ft. Ludacris "Ride"
Corner Sleeper brought this one to my attention. I looked it over quickly a day or two ago but obviously slept on this madness. As I paid attention to the detail, I noticed that this video is beyond post-worthy. Not that anyone is paying attention to the music but Luda does have a nice verse.

The "Distant Relatives" album that these two geniuses are putting together is shaping up to be a classic.

Win a Date with Tiffany Michelle
Most people probably have no clue who Tiffany Michelle is, but if you're a poker fan you recognize her as the woman who made it the deepest in the 2008 WSOP Main Event. I can personally vouch that it was a fluke because I've played with her and she's pretty clueless when it comes to poker.
Fast forward to 2010 and she's now an Ultimate Bet sponsored pro and they are pimping her out as an all-expenses-paid date in Los Angeles for a freeroll tournament prize.
So if you find her attractive, you can enter the tournament and try to get a free trip to L.A. to be annoyed for a night. Such is the world of poker, dominated by men to the point that any decent looking female becomes a sponsored pro, regardless of her skill level.
Daily Dunk: Dwyane Wade
Weekend Wade reminding Kevin Garnett how old he is... This dunk is nasty but not as vicious as most of the dunks that are posted. I would like to point out that D. Wade hammered this home in a win-or-go-home playoff game and did it in KG's mug en route to a 46-point effort. Kudos to Flash.
Kobe Fan: Bananas
After watching this you will be dumbfounded. This guy starts with "Love you Kobe," throws in an invitation to go to Santa Barbara together to "hit up some charming shops" and ends with a suggestion that he and Kobe hold each other and let their bodies take over. If you need some early afternoon entertainment, you won't be disappointed after watching this.

If I Hit the Powerball Tonight...
...I'm turning this into a personal checklist. Think you're a baller? Then start dropping those bills down for some of these big ticket items, considered to be the most expensive in the world. That includes the world's most expensive "house", a 27 story skyscraper in Mumbai, India:
The full Yahoo article:
The World's Most Expensive Stuff 2010
According to a February report by Property Magazine, the most expensive house in the world, named Antilla (in picture above at left), is in downtown Mumbai, India, and will be the residence of Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani. The 27-story, 570-foot-tall tower has a helipad, a health club, and a six-floor garage that can hold 168 cars. Each level has gardens. It will be serviced by a staff of 600 people. Some reports list the price of the house at $2 billion. The architecture and design firms working on this project, Perkins + Will and Hirsch Bedner Associates, declined comment.

R.I.P. Guru
Legendary emcee Guru has passed away today at the age of 43. Gang Starr, which he founded with fellow hip-hop icon DJ Premier, was as groundbreaking and influential a group as you'll find in the genre's storied history. And yet Guru never seemed to get as much credit as he deserved (certainly not by the mainstream). This is truly sad news.
A statement from Guru's business partner, Solar, reads, "The world has lost one of the best MCs and hip-hop icons of all --time -- my loyal best friend, partner, and brother, Guru. Guru has been battling cancer for well over a year and has lost his battle. This is a matter that Guru wanted private until he could beat it, but tragically, this did not happen. The cancer took him. Now the world has lost a great man and a true genius."
Solar has also released a letter, written by his pal during his hospital stay, in which he acknowledges he is not going to recover from the condition.
It reads, "I, Guru, am writing this letter to my fans, friends and loved ones around the world. I have had a long battle with cancer and have succumbed to the disease. I have suffered with this illness for over a year. I have exhausted all medical options. I write this with tears in my eyes, not of sorrow but of joy for what a wonderful life I have enjoyed and how many great people I have had the pleasure of meeting."
Here are two of my favorite Gang Starr tracks; the classic "Mass Appeal" and the underrated "Discipline".
