Viva La Tigers

Tiger Tuesday.

Pure Power. 

This is fucking adorable. 

The 40 in 30 Challenge. Post 1

Thanks to PBR, I'm writing this because of a drunken bet I made with two of my pals we'll call Douche and Turd. Because of my expertise in doing stupid shit that makes other people laugh and say "Harry you're a fucking idiot", I made a drunken bet that's incredibly simple. I'll lose 40 pounds, in 30 days. I am actually an expert in losing the weight as I lost 50 pounds a few years ago for football and intentionally regained a lot this year, also because of football. I weighed in tonight at a svelte 269 pounds, and will need to be 229 pounds by midnight on February 28th, and on the line is 40 fucking bucks. Big Deal, I know. I'll post frequent updates every couple days or so, in order to let you know the progress in the latest line of stupid things I do. I advise you not to try this at home, so were not fucking liable if your dumbass gets hurt or sick.
I do think I look like the BAMF in the middle.

Final Post NBA Power Rankings 7-1

7. Golden State

Golden State seems right now like one of the most complete teams in the NBA. Their starting lineup includes 2 bruising big guys in Andrew Bogut and David Lee, the Splash Bros in Steph Curry and Klay Thompson, and Andre Iguodala who plays terrific D, and can drain the open look. Just a fantastic starting 5. The only problem is the Defense, as aside from Iggy, they don't get a ton from anyone in the lineup and little to none off the bench, which isn't very deep.

6. Houston

James Harden is a legit star in the NBA, Dwight Howard at 70% is still the best Center in the NBA, and they have a nice repertoire of role players like Chandler Parsons and Terrence Jones to carry the load. Unfortunately, Dwight Howard is still a whiny bitch and Omer Asik is still likely going to be traded, so watch to see what they can get for Asik before calling them a title favorite.

5. San Antonio

The Spurs still don't have a win over the top 6 teams in the NBA, which speaks some problems to their Defense, as they start a man so charismatic he can cheat on Eva Longoria and actually find a better looking woman, Father Time, and Manu Ginobli. Kawhi Leonard has been injured quite a bit this year and the supporting cast just isn't there. I'm not even very optimistic they'll make it out of the first round. They worry me.

4. Portland

The have my favorite non-Piston player in the NBA in Damian Lilliard, who is able to fuck the Based Gods Bitches and get away with it, and LeMarcus Aldridge who fucks shit up on daily basis, along with the greatest NBA2K13 player ever WESLEY MATTHEWS. The Blazers (lol), shoot the 3 as well as anyone in the league and play some terrific Defense. I think theyre built a lot like the Pacers, as in they need to get deep in the playoffs before they can win a title.

3. Oklahoma City

They have Kevin Durant. That is all.

2. Indiana

1. Miami

They're basically tied in this regard, with Miami getting the edge just because of being the champion. You gotta knock out the champ to be the champ, which is exactly what the Pacers aim to do this year, as they're projected to have homecourt advantage this postseason, which could give them the heads up on the Heat. Either way, if they avoid an upset, Itll be one hell of a series.

What The Fuck Did I Just Watch.

I can still feel this guy staring right into my soul. Fucking creepy.


PS

New season of Workaholics tonight, nbd but kbd. Hope everyone has a fabulous Wednesday.

WInter X Games 2014 Preview

If you're not into the whole action sports scene, this week is the annual Winter X Games held at Aspen Resort in Aspen, Colorado. Honestly, this is one of my favorite sporting events of the year. These guys (and girls) are just fucking crazy. The level of competition that they compete at is really amazing. As usual all of the big names will be there such as Shaun White, Louie Vito, and Levi Lavallee. With events that range from the snowboarding super pipe, to the snowmobile best trick. It's sure going to be quite a show this year.

Men's Super Pipe:

First, I would like to rant about Shaun White. He jumped onto the snowboard scene when he was in his teens and has taken the sport to an all time high. He was the first to do a double McTwist 1260 in the pipe, and has only lost one event in that area in 3 years. The guy is really unreal. And on top of that he has helped skateboarding progress as well. But honestly, I'm getting tired of seeing this guy win year after year. It would be different if he had some competition, but he doesn't. Not many people in the sport are as progressed as he is in the pipe, but there are a few up and comers that may be able to knock him off this top this year not only at X Games but in the Winter Olympics.

Ayumu Hirano:

Ayumu made his way onto the snowboard scene last year at the X Games when he took second place in the super pipe next to Shaun White. The craziest thing is, HE'S ONLY 14 YEARS OLD. That is crazy if you ask me. But don't let his age fool you, this kid can throw down in the pipe. He is one of the few riders that could possibly knock Shaun White down on the podium this year. I'm expecting big things from this little guy in the upcoming week. Btw, he speaks absolutely zero english. Straight Japanese.

X Games did a great job with this commercial, fucking inspirational. 

Big Air:

This is probably my favorite event that is held in the X Games. The tricks are getting more and more advanced each year and it started with Halldor's double cork and then was one-up'd by Torstein's triple cork. The guys in this event are legally insane. They are doing some of the most difficult tricks on earth while traveling at least 65 feet through the air. 

Halldor Helgason:

Halldor won the event in 2010 by performing the first double cork ever in a competition. I'm hoping he is able to win it this year as well. Personally, he is my favorite rider. He has his own style and swagger that I love. He had an unfortunate wipe-out last year at the X Games, so hopefully he will come out strong Friday night. 

This is genius, tattoo of a penis on the inside of your finger, then a pair of tits on your ribs. Guy can titty-fuck whenever he feels like it. 

Torstein Horgmo:

Another one of my favorite riders. Torstein won the event the year after Halldor with the double cork. He did it with the triple cork on the last attempt of his run. This was also the first time anyone had landed it in a competition. Now a days, snowboarders are throwing these like its their day job and it blows my mind. Torstein was the first ever and both of theses riders keep setting the bar higher and higher. Love seeing what they come out with every year. They're also very good friends, which is awesome. 

Fucking love this video. First ever triple, all amped up, what better way to celebrate then by whipping your goggles 90+ right at some chicks face. Priceless. 

Overall, this year is going to be something else. That's why I love watching all these sports, cause they are constantly progressing. All of these athletes are one of a kind and do some crazy shit. Although there is a lot of risk in these sports, they are fun to watch and that's the bottom line. The games couldn't have come at a better time either with the Winter Olympics coming up in a couple of weeks. Can't wait till it all kicks off Thursday on ESPN with the men's super pipe elimination, and snowmobile freestyle elimination. It should be fun to watch. 

Let's not forget Caleb Moore who died last year in the games due to a terrible snowmobile accident. Rest In Peace. 

Viva la Tigers

Happy Tiger Tuesday Everybody.

This guy knows he's the man. 

Full on beast mode training right here. 

Fucking love this little guy. Adorable. 

To sum it up, the Hawks are Chicago's only hope.

I've been pushing this blog off for the last couple of days, so this is going to be a long one. lets start with recapping the game from Friday night against the Anaheim Ducks.

The good:

1.) Marian Hossa had two sick goals. Including the first, which gave the hawks the lead, and the last which slit the jugular artery of the Ducks (stupid fuckin mascot if you ask me).
2.) The 5 game losing streak ended, which had me shiting a brick.
3.) The Hawks out shot the Ducks 34-21, which is a plus considering the Ducks are sitting at the top of the NHL.
4.) Kaner had some nasty dangles to get to the net but was unable to put any away.

The Bad:

1.) 3rd period play has been a struggle all year, the Ducks were able to put 2 in the net. Thankfully, the Hawks woke the fuck up and were able to put the game away.
2.) Powerplay rush was just bad, they weren't able to get the puck to the net and when they did it was cleared by the Ducks defensemen.

With the mid-way point of the season fast approaching, the Hawks are 5 wins out of first both overall and in the Western Conference. And I have no doubt in my mind that they will be able to reach the top of the rankings. But a lot of shit has to happen for that to occur.

3rd Period Play:

This is something that the hawks have struggled with all year. They go up on a team in the first 2, and then in the 3rd they come out all high and mighty and forget how to play hockey. Don't get me wrong they have some unreal talent, but this is an area of their game that just has to get better.

Heres a look at some of the hawks team stats thus far in the 2014 season. As you can see the Hawks have a bunch of talent at their finger tips. Guys like Kaner, Sharpie and Hossa who have been consistant with their goal scoring this year. The Hawks have a strong d as well with guys like Keith, and Seabrook leading the front. Without a doubt I think the Hawks will be able to repeat winning another championship (knock on wood). In fact if they don't, Chicago will go into yet another year of wrist-slitting sports with teams like the Cubs, Bears, and the Bulls without Derrick Rose. Still haven't changed my opinion on LeBron coming btw, fuckboy. I'm looking foreward to see what happens in the second half of the season for the Hawks. One Goal.

On another note, the Hawks defenseman Michael Kostka looks exactally like Thor, nbd but kbd. Almost impossible not to win the ship with this badass on your team. Do it for Asgard Michael. 

And don't forget that bitches love Hossa.
