Nationals’ ace Gio Gonzalez pitched well on Wednesday in his team’s 3-0 win over Miami in chilly Washington, D.C. Gonzalez also hit a home run at the plate. He mashed another in the post-game interview when broadcaster Bob Carpenter asked Gonzalez how he was able to pitch in the bitter cold air of early April. Gonzalez hit the question out of the park: “It was definitely difficult, especially with this cold weather,” he said. “It was tough to get a grip. I felt like I was making love to my hand. Just one of those things where I was constantly trying to find some grip, somehow, some way. The rosin bag, whatever, licking the fingers. But it felt good after that.” You know, just trying to find some grip… the rosin bag…licking the fingers. Right, we know, Gio. Use your inside voice, dude, inside voice! After this comment and the spring training incident in which he suffered rug burn on his forehead while wrestling with his dog, Gonzalez is fast becoming the big league’s next great wacky pitcher, as known for his eccentricities as his game performance? He’s taking over the legacy handed down from Bill Lee, Mark Fidrych, Oil Can Boyd, Jose Lima, Brian Wilson and others, and the game is better for it. Just the same, maybe it’s time someone made a Match.com profile for him (or maybe got him a razor for his palm). It’s a long season.

The Miami Heat won their 27th straight game on Monday night, 108-94 over the Orlando Magic. However it’s not the game that is sticking in our minds, it’s LeBron’s very funny videobome of Ray Allen’s post game interview. LeBron had 27 points, 11 assists and one very awesome moment of comedic genius. There’s a reason they call him King James. The Heat are on quite the tear right now and seem to be having fun. This moment is proof. Especially if the Harlem Shake video left you thinking “this team seems stiff.”

Saudi Arabia is a country without any snow. So the sport of skiing had to be reinvented in a different way.

The Best Alley-oop Dunk ever might have taken place during Monday nights game of the Utah Jazz Vs the Portland Trailblazers. Usualy when an alley-oop takes place the player dunking the ball is close to the basket but not this time. Utah Jazz Players Jamaal Tinsley and Jeremy Evans were both behind the 3 point line when Tinsley threw the ball up high and Evans ran it down for a monster dunk. This is definitely the best Alley-oop I have seen in a long time. What an unbelievable play.

Unquestionably, Michael Jordan is the best Basketball player of all time. People lately have been comparing him to Kobe Bryant, and while currently, he is one of the best in the NBA, he still cannot surmount the incredible talent of Michael Jordan. People compare the two today because that is literally, the only person we have in comparison. There is no doubt, MJ is the best at what he did, and to remind you all (and put you in your place Kobe) here is a tribute to the best thing that happened to Basketball, EVER.
