Sports On TV: Community’s 20 Greatest Sports Moments

Written by Brandon Stroud / 02.07.13


Greendale Community College Calendar

Happy October 19th! Season 4 of NBC’s woefully-undersupported-by-anyone-without-a-Tumblr ‘Community’ begins tonight!

To celebrate, this week’s Sports On TV column looks back at the 20 greatest sports moments from the show’s first three seasons. It’s a confusing mass of spaceships and ‘Glee’ slams and paintball epics, and it’s absolutely worth revisiting and celebrating.

Here’s the best way to enjoy tonight’s premiere: read this column. Click the like button. Share it on Reddit or Facebook or Tumblr (especially Tumblr). Drop a comment in the comments section about your favorite episodes, moments, quotes and character pairings. Come up with a fun name for them (suggestion: StarPelt). Flip through the 20 greatest sports moments dozens of times over the next few hours. Then, totally forget that ‘Community’ actually comes on television and decide to watch it on Hulu tomorrow morning. Because guess what? That’s the only way ‘Community’ has ever worked.

Please enjoy ‘Community’s’ 20 Greatest, Streets Ahead Sports Moments.

Morning Links Presented By Shaq’s Mac Attack

Written by Ashley Burns / 03.16.12

This photo of Shaq throwing a girl into a fiery pit or lifting up a Best Buy employee was taken on a Mac, according to my favorite photo sharing website, Imgur. Yeah? Well it’s still not as cool as Shaq and Hulk Hogan.

Oh, here are some links! And some are about Community, so I’ve included an Alison Brie GIF.

Ignore That Olympic Torch And Check Out These Morning Links

Written by Ashley Burns / 03.13.12

British police have been intensely training this week for scenarios in which people might try to steal the Olympic torch during its famous relay leading up to the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. I like to think that they just paid random bums and junkies to go after it without telling them that it’s a training exercise. Maybe later they’ll add zombies into the mix. Anything to make the Olympics fun again. (Image via Reuters)

Nightmares. Nightmares.

Links

The 10 Freakiest Commercials of 2011 - That ‘Dead Island’ announcement trailer really is fantastic, and I wish any part of the actual game was as good as it. Also, I want somebody to make a Skyrim trailer like this with a guy taking an arrow in the knee in reverse, ending with him as an adventurer like me. [Warming Glow]

The Robert Downey Jr. Acting Venn Diagram - I feel like Chaplin should be in here somewhere. [UPROXX]

This Week in Posters: Battleships, Ghost Riders, & Spider-Men - The funniest thing I’m going to see all week is another goddamn Spider-Man origin story advertised as “untold”. Starving kids in Africa know Spider-Man’s origin, just shut up and make him fight Electro. [Film Drunk]

Four Theories on Why the Internet Has Such a Massive Almost Unexplainable Crush on Alison Brie - Nice science, Pajiba. She’s a gorgeous woman who seems nice and she has big boobs, end of experiment. [Pajiba]

Observe The Phanatic In Its Natural Habitat - I didn’t want this to get bumped completely off the page yet, because it’s one of the best things I’m ever going to share with you. [With Leather]

Before Hollywood Ruins Them: 15 Sci-Fi and Supernatural Scripts On The 2011 Black List - Somebody throw Seven Hill City on there, I’ve almost convinced people to just come film it guerrilla style in Austin. [Gamma Squad]

Waka Flocka On Wiz Khalifa’s Success: “All Hype” - Also, payola. [Smoking Section]

Christina Hendricks Is Johnnie Walker’s New Internet Sales Rep - hey christina, your boobs would look a lot better if you didn’t smash them against your chest and throttle yourself with them [UPROXX]

Stop Whatever You’re Doing And Watch This Video Of Dogs Hanging Out Of Car Windows - Seriously, do that. [UPROXX]

The Russian Toe Hold That Will Kill Us All - This is what you get for fighting with your shoes off. [Cage Potato]

Mad Men Trudy CampbellWhy We Must Save ‘Community’: The Venn Diagram - Unfortunately “an increased role on ‘Mad Men’ for Trudy” is a good reason to NOT save Community. Pete and Trudy should be the main characters, and we should check in on Don pridefully weeping in California every third or fourth episode. [UPROXX]

The Top 5 Tablets For Holiday 2011 - Alka-Seltzer had better be on this list, am I right, folks? [Smoking Section]

Tell Your Dad: There’s A ‘Mork & Mindy’ Porn - The best part is the continuity that at some point, one of the porn stars becomes pregnant with Zelda Williams. [Film Drunk]

The NY Times Continues Its Hilarious War On Taylor Lautner - I turned on him the second Shark Boy (the wrestler) sued, so good riddance to bad, totally hairless rubbish. [UPROXX]

5 Captain Planet Episodes That Went Horribly Wrong - I hate people who say cartoon characters are hot, but if I could have sex with one animated lady it would be Dr. Blight from Captain Planet. Also on that list, Gadget from Rescue Rangers. She looks like Shawn Johnson. [Gamma Squad]

Ryan Gosling Fans Protest Outside People Magazine Headquarters - It’s pretty great that the one time my generation decides to protest, everyone else turns it into a meme. [Buzzfeed]

Tyler Perry Says That Tyler Perry Casting Kim Kardashian In A Tyler Perry Movie About Marriage Was A Really Good Idea By Tyler Perry - Also a good idea by Tyler Perry: having Mr. Brown do “yo mama” jokes about Madea while he plays double-dutch. [FARK]

Corgi Friday Morning Links

Written by Brandon Stroud / 11.04.11

I am currently finishing up a guest installment of Warming Glow’s Corgi Friday, so these links will be a little less wordy than usual. That’s probably for the best, isn’t it? We’ve got a lot of cool stuff on our network, so take your time and check it all out. Then, come back to Warming Glow and look at the pictures I took at a corgi party in Austin. THEN, go to the With Leather main page and hit refresh non-stop until it’s time for you to go to bed.
