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.

If you’ve ever wanted to see a shark in a hockey jersey hit a B-boy stance, here you go.

What you’re watching is THE GREATEST THING EVER OH MY GOD Deutsche Eishockey Liga mascot “Sharky” entertaining the crowd by breakdancing his shark ass off. It’s funny enough to see a German dude in a shark costume dancing like nobody’s watching, but everything about the clip is great … move-busting sharks, hockey existing, foreign hockey games having profane soundtracks because nobody can understand the words, and even the name of the team, Kölner Haie. It means “Cologne Sharks”. That is amazing.

I can’t thank Puck Daddy enough for bringing Sharky into my life. Please direct any and all Sharky-related news to me until I am dead.

He breaks out the “windmill” for walk-offs. (via Holdout Sports)

From the official Round Rock Express Facebook page:

Have you seen Express Founder and CEO, Reid Ryan, busting out ‘The Worm’ at a Father-Daughter dance off? He’s got some serious moves…

I hadn’t, but I’m glad I did.

You may remember Reid Ryan as a 17th-round draft pick for the Texas Rangers (477th overall!) or as the son of legendary Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan, who will probably never be videotaped breakdancing. The Ryans run the Rangers AAA-affiliate Express here in central Texas, and having gone to a bunch of games I can say we’re lucky this video didn’t involve more t-shirt cannons and dogs dressed as train conductors.

Hell, I’d like to see someone from the San Antonio Missions try to pop and lock like that.

I thought he was just a cereal box model, but apparently Jeff Gordon is a champion race car driver and B-Boy.

The breaking of dance occurred during the NASCAR “After the Lap” event in Las Vegas, a championship banquet referred to by the Las Vegas Sun as a “press conference on steroids” that plays out like the last 30 minutes of any Blue Collar Comedy Tour stop, right down having Bill Engvall sit there squinting and laughing while people around him try to be entertaining. The skinny (and white) from SB Nation:

Gordon said he started break-dancing in middle school because that’s what all the cool kids did. In fact, the four-time NASCAR champ said he’d sneak into the bathroom and break-dance every morning before school, because they weren’t allowed to dance in the hallways.

You can check out video of the hip-hoppery after the jump, but be aware that at no point during the clip does he accidentally kick Bill Engvall in the face.

This video’s title is the SEO-friendly “Breakdancer kicking girl knockout“, but I have two problems:

1. They should’ve just called it “Internet”
2. They act like what happens in the video is a terrible mistake, but I watch pro wrestling … that wasn’t a mistake, that was a heel turn.

I’m also interested in the Breakdancer part. Sure, maybe the little girl gets Sweet Hip-Hop Chin Music’d before the dancing can occur (and the “break” could be referring to her jaw), but for the first twenty seconds I see nothing but the worst Saturday morning cartoon “Stay Off Drugs” commercial forward-rolling and New Kids On The Block-dancing bullsh*t ever. If your “crew” is a tween in cargo shorts and a kid in an all-white hat with a flat brim with the rhythm of a toaster oven you’re setting yourself up to be served, be it through superior dance humiliation or kung-fu f**king knockouts.

I don’t know, something about the music and the guy’s t-shirt makes this seem like a really dangerous episode of ‘GUTS’.
