Sidney Rice Highlight Video

Here's a nice little video of Sidney Rice from South Carolina, expected to be one of the top 6 WR taken in the NFL Draft, with a shot at being taken in the first round.

Barkley vs. Bavetta Race Video

The highlight of most people's (including mine) All-Star weekend... race between Charles Barkley and Dick Bavetta. Barkley won out, but the whole incident from the start was just absolutely hilarious. Here's the video of the race.

Pool Trick Shot

This is just one of the coolest things I have seen in a long time.

Last 40 seconds of UCLA vs. Gonzaga

This is the video from the 2006 Sweet 16 game between UCLA and Gonzaga, and it very well be my most favorite video ever. To give you an idea of how good this ending was, even Len Elmore got excited. That's tough to beat.

Dwyane Wade Shoulder Injury

Here's a video of the injury that sidelined Dwyane Wade with injury, effectively burying the Heat in the process. Hate to see this happen to a great player, and from all accounts, a great guy.

Gonzaga over Florida - 1999 NCAA Tournament

More from Gus Johnson:

"Shannon, from the CORNEEEEEEEERRRRRR... AND IT'S OVER. GONZAGA. THE SLIPPER STILL FITS!"

Adam Morrison Game-Winner Against Oklahoma St.

This is from 2005, a meeting between Gonzaga and Oklahoma St., where Adam Morrison hit a late 3 to give the Zags the lead and the win. The thing I really like about this is the commentators... Gus Johnson and Bill Raftery. Here's the patented Gus Johnson call:

"MORRISON...6... FIIIIIIIIIREEEEESSS....OOOOHHHH HE BANKED IN A 3!"

Shaq, LeBron, and Dwight Howard Dancing

Found on We Are the Postmen, this is a great video, and really the perfect showcase why even though Shaq's never been on any of my favorite teams or anything like that, he's always been one of my favorite NBA players. You could just tell all weekend long that he was just out there having fun, and it was all very entertaining. Hopefully when he retires he'll do some type of basketball broadcasting, because he's one of the most entertaining guys in the NBA (though Kazaam still sucked).

Gilbert Arenas uses the trampoline to dunk

From Deadspin via The 700 Level. This is why we all love Gilbert Arenas, and why the Wizards brass must just shake their heads and cringe sometimes.

Princeton 43, UCLA 41

"What makes the NCAA Tournament what it is? Coach Dean Smith would say, 'I could never beat Jack Nicklaus for 18 holes,' but he also said that, 'on that given day, at that given moment, he may be able to beat Jack on 1 hole. Enter Princeton."

Dwayne Jarrett Highlight Video

Here's a nice highlight video of Dwayne Jarrett, the WR from USC, expected to be a first round pick in the 2007 NFL Draft and one of the first WRs off of the board. Jarrett set Pac-10 records for receiving TDs, so um, he's pretty good at football. As you'll see.

Noel Devine Highlight Video

I read an extremely interesting article by Stewart Mandel the other day about High School RB Noel Devine. Devine is one of the most talented backs in the country, but has not signed anywhere yet and may not even be eligible to play in college next year. Anyway, you can read the article and watch the video below, and you'll see why scouts drool.

"But He Has A Bud Light"

My favorite Super Bowl commercial from 2007:

Brady Quinn Highlight Video

Here's a nice little highlight video of Brady Quinn from Notre Dame. Quinn will almost certainly be the first or second QB taken in the NFL Draft, depending on whether a team picking a QB prefers a more seasoned Quinn or the more "toolsy" JaMarcus Russell. Either way, Quinn projects to be a very solid NFL QB.
