The Redskins beat the Saints 40-32 on Sunday, and in NFL fan terms that means “the Redskins are going to have a great season and win the Superbowl”, so here’s the first of what I assume will be an absolute deluge of RG3 rap tributes. This one is from “Money M.I.C.” and features a burning Troy Aikman jersey. Because, you know, that’s timely. (via Outside The Boxscore)

I’ve got to be honest. I’ve read the Official Guide provided by the UPROXX mothership and six days later I still have no f**king clue what Gangnam Style is.

That being said, Burnsy sent me an e-mail titled IMPORTANT with a link to the Oregon Duck going Gangnam Style (do you DO Gangnam Style or GO Gangnam Style? Go sounds better) and I would be a terrible, terrible person if I didn’t share it with you. Please consult that style guide I linked in the opening paragraph, then proceed beyond the cut, where Oregon Duck Gangnam Style awaits you.

You know those annoying Facebook macros going around with a picture of the Angry Beavers on it or whatever, with a big caption reading “ONLY 90S KIDS WOULD REMEMBER THIS CLICK LIKE” across the top? The Philadelphia Phillies made an entire night out of that.

Wednesday’s 3-2 loss to Brandon Bronson Arroyo was ’90s Retro Night at Citizens Bank Park, and as the mascot-loving guy behind the Sports On TV column I’d be doing you a disservice if I didn’t share the clip of the Phillie Phanatic dancing with the Spice (Ball) Girls or the hilariously thrown-together photoshops depicting Charlie Manuel as Wilson from ‘Home Improvement’, or whatever. It’s the kind of night that makes being at the ballpark fun, except for all the losing.

Most of the pictures come with a hat-tip to my good friend Mr. Joey Odorisio, and the ones that don’t are credited where applicable. What are you waiting for? Check them out. There’s a really creepy shot of Chase Utley as Dylan from ‘Beverly Hills 90210′ waiting somewhere on the other side of this jump.

Screw the ring, check out that oven. Baller.

As we hadn’t heard his name much since being one half of an incredibly douchetastic night club fight that nearly ended Tony Parker’s basketball career, I assumed that rapper/bad shaver Drake was laying low after the negative attention. But according to MTV’s RapFix, Drake’s been busier than ever, collaborating with a bunch of rappers that I’ve never heard of. On top of that, he’s also been hanging out with comedian Kevin Hart, as the two pitted their posses against each other in a giant paintball match this weekend.

However, the bigger Drake news is that he’s back on Instagram, according to people who type poorly in all caps, and on Saturday he posted the above image of his very own University of Kentucky championship ring. Drake, of course, graduated from played for attended dropped out of high school once performed at UK, so he’s practically the greatest Wildcat player of all-time.

Let’s forget all that, though, and focus on my new favorite thing – terribly racist and ignorant Instagram comments.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Steve Johnson’s rap debut is here and it’s got all the football references you’d expect from a football guy rapping, including “she opened up her shirt like Cam New” and the oddly-appropriate-for-comparing-football-to-sex hashtag “lights out, Shawne Merriman”.

Additional sample lyric:

I’m sayin’ let’s
go go go go go go go go go go go go go go
I’m sayin’ let’s
go go go go go go go go go go go go go go

Players View puts it as bluntly as possible, saying Run It Back is “on-par musically with what’s out there with it’s rolling snares and sparse instrumentation”. In layman’s terms, that means “it’s not really great, but it doesn’t sound like Must Be The Money”.

Most of the references work, too, except for the one about how Johnson “Superman’d in her like Cam do”. If we’re going by the Soulja Boy definition of Supermanning a hoe, that’s not really something you can do inside of her. I think my favorite part is the direct comparison of vaginal penetration to Arian Foster. If we’re making Texasn references, I’m sad he didn’t let me on the track. I need somewhere to drop my dope line about being “rap’s T. J. Yates in the grass and the dirt/only here ’cause two other quarterbacks are hurt”.

Someone sent me the above image of LMFAO “performing” during timeouts at Game 5 of the NBA Finals last night, and all I could think was: “This is Miami in a nutshell.” It’s overindulgence at its finest. I mean, they were celebrating during the game. But it doesn’t matter now, because the Miami Heat are the NBA Champions and LeBron James and Chris Bosh finally have their vindication (of sorts).

I bring no ill will today, as the Heat earned this title, and I predicted it would happen before the season, so I’ll just sit here and be glad that for once in my insignificant life, I was right about something. But I can’t help but share the video showing how James, Bosh, and Dwyane Wade celebrated their title – presumably before they rolled around on mountains of cash with naked models.

I present to you: LeBron James, Chris Bosh, and Dwyane Wade rapping with LMFAO, or the most Miami Heat thing you’ll ever see.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: This GIF is also very Miami Heat.
