"Sweet gloves, bro."

NBA legend and TNT analyst Shaquille O’Neal, in his neverending quest to completely besmirch Dwight Howard, once said that Andrew Bynum was the best big man in the league. But since he was traded to the Philadelphia 76ers in the blockbuster deal that sent Howard from the Orlando Magic to the Los Angeles Lakers, I’m pretty certain that Shaq doesn’t even care who Bynum is anymore. That doesn’t change the fact that, though, that when healthy Bynum is indeed one of the most talented centers in the NBA. The key component of that statement being WHEN HEALTHY, because lately that’s a concern.

Bynum has been rehabilitating his knees after he received fancy lubrication injections in Germany during the summer. Basically, the guy has no cartilage and he’s trying desperately to make his knees work. Originally, he was aiming to be ready by mid-to-late November, but then he suffered a bone bruise that set him back to December or January. Now, his recovery has been set back again, because he reportedly re-injured his knee while bowling. Seriously.

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is really enjoying his vacation, because he still hasn’t found time to get to the barber. It’s so long now that Brady has resorted to using a headband. Yes, one of the greatest players in NFL history has resorted to using ladies’ accessories.

This is a hundred times worse than Joe Namath and his fur coat. You could at least make an argument for functionality there. No, this is clearly a sign of the apocalypse and the end of times and dogs and cats living together. Mass hysteria. When the world is suddenly and violently thrown into utter ruin, we’ll know that it wasn’t over-leveraged financial markets or corrupt politicians or genocide or nuclear war. No. It was because of a quarterback from California that wouldn’t cut his hair. Thanks a lot, Tom.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages, let me introduce to you 8-year old Stevo Paulin, a pint-sized bat out of h-e-double-bendy-straws who is making a name for himself in the increasingly popular child wrestling circuit. As of this week, Stevo has compiled an overall record of 256-26, which is insane. I can only imagine he hired Nick Patrick to follow him to daycare centers where he just pins random kids for the 3-count to maintain his toddlerweight title.

As for his name, I’m curious to know how it’s pronounced, because it could be Stevo like Steh-vo, which is cool. But from the adult with purple Mohawk in the video after the jump, I’m guessing that when this kid was born, the doctor asked the father what the child’s name would be and he yelled, “STEVE-O, YOU PUSSY MOTHER F*CKER!” And then he chugged a Mountain Dew Code Red and gave the doctor a DDT. In summation, this kid is going to grow up to be a dick.
