Shaq Loves Twitter
Over at Jesse Bearden’s Blog which I found via CrunchGear, Jesse meets Shaq because he was following him on Twitter. For most people you would just think that Shaq probably used Twitter for self promotion but this pretty much proves otherwise.
Jesse and his buddy Sean had been following Shaq on Twitter and weren’t sure if it was really Shaq. When he Twittered from a restaurant that was near them, they decided to check it out. They walked into the restaurant and there he was. They didn’t necessarily have the balls to talk to...

I am an avid NFL Super fan that has been captivated from an early age by the product that plays out in NFL stadiums across the nation on Sundays. I started a journey in 2006 to challenge myself to attend a game in every NFL stadium. I realized early on that the NFL experience takes regional ces from the area around the team. Each NFL city through local food, climate, and culture has...Unless You Created that Video, Stop Acting Like it’s “Yours”

An interesting trend, which has been touched on before, has sort of taken an interesting turn over the last couple of weeks. You see, there is this culture of bloggers that basically run an entire blog made up of other people’s videos. It could be a commercial that a major company has posted to YouTube, or a video cap of a game highlight, or even an old video that some kid found...Signing Day Recap
Lane Kiffin’s first signing class has officially materialized this week following the late commitment of Louisiana native Janzen Jackson. In VolWatch’s opinion this recruiting class is a big success considering Kiffin had only two months to recruit players and most of that time was spent putting together a coaching staff giving the coaches even less time to recruit players. The Big Orange signed 20 players this year and the class has been ranked 18th by Scout.com, 17th by Rivals.com and 15th by ESPN. Standouts of this class are safety Darren Myles JR, of Atlanta, CB Janzen Jackson, and...

When I shot it looked good at first but the rotation was slightly off, the arc heavy and uneven, as if the ball was not a perfect orb. I kept clanging bricks and I stared at the ball, blaming it for my failures.At the goal next to me a group of high school kids...
