NBA

Can't believe I'm just learning now that NBA stands for New Boom Action. This explains so much.

Seal Show

I think most people don't take the time to consider how "radical" a seal show on another planet would be. I mean, of course the other planet has to have random basketball hoops built into to their mountains for it to be super awesome.

Japanese Bull Fighting

The above video is pretty boring if you can't speak Japanese. It says that a 40-year-old man was gored to death by his own bull in Kagoshima-ken in a bull ring. Most people don't know this, but bull fighting, or 闘牛　(togyu), is practiced in Japan. It comes from Okinawa, but it has spread to other parts of Japan. It's not like Spanish bull fighting where a bull is killed by a man. It's more like a crossbreed of cock fighting and sumo. Bulls are trained by their owners to push other bulls to the side of the ring, and it is non-lethal. I'm guessing some bulls' eyes are lost. The matches end when one bull runs away, is gored, or is too tired to continue. Here's an example from Uwajima in Shikoku. Don't worry, no goring in this clip.

Cute Baseball

Nagoya Women's Marathon

The Nagoya Women's Marathon was held on Sunday. It's for women only because stupid men just slow us down! Am I right, ladies? I did notice that several women ran with their boyfriends or husbands because women can't do anything without the help of a man! Right guyz? Here's one such cute couple:

I apologize if that dude on the right isn't a dude.

It seems logical to associate your products with taking a crap.

The Olympics

I know a lot of people are angered by the removal of wrestling from the Olympics, but the bigger travesty is that  "homeless cycling" still isn't recognized as a real sport.

B-ball

If you're like me, you often find yourself tossing and turning in bed thinking, "The WNBA is a good idea in theory, but the athletes in that league are just way too good at playing basketball!" Dudes, our prayers have been answered.

A lot of people rightly complain that the WNBA team names are a bit lame. That's not the case here where you can see epic matches like:
Cougars vs V-magic (that's not sexual at all, you perverts)
Vickies vs Antelopes
Queenbees vs Sunflowers
