As someone who is naturally sculpted and forged from flesh and iron, when my buddy Chris at Dog and Pony Show Tweeted a video of a guy doing no-armed push-ups, I thought for sure it was about me, but it turns out that someone else on this planet is capable of such a feat with his feet. Too bad the video above is a fake. It has to be. No one on this planet is as powerful as me, but if the Russians are trying to clone me, then Barack Obama and the boys better send some other clones of me to Moscow on the fly or we’re gonna have some real life A Good Day to Die Hard going down.

Also, that movie was awesome. So go see that tonight if you haven’t already.

After spending the better part of the last 48 hours on my couch playing Final Fantasy III on my iPad and watching college football, I’m ready to get back to my daily grind of slouching in my office desk while watching movies on my iPad. But there is still some couch time left, with the Allstate Sugar Bowl (RIP Nokia) tonight, and those other games on whatever other nights they’re on.

So first up, we’ve got the Florida Gators and… Tennessee?

I haven’t been the most devout NBA fan yet in this young season, so I was a little surprised to see that more than a month later, Oklahoma City Thunder fans are still mad at James Harden. In case you forgot – or simply don’t care, because it’s so damn trivial – Harden turned down a contract extension from the Thunder because it was reportedly lower than the max deal that he was seeking. So the Thunder traded Harden to the Houston Rockets in a move that Harden admitted left him baffled and hurt, and he eventually signed his new max deal with the Rockets.

I mean, unless I’m completely missing something, Harden wanted what was best for him – what he has since proven he deserves – and that didn’t match what the Thunder offered, so the team traded him. He didn’t leave. He didn’t demand to be traded. He was just traded. A business decision, as the kids at the playground call it. Yet here we are, staring at a t-shirt that paints Harden into some sort of Dwight Howard villain. The shirt’s not even cool.

Oh well, I’m sure Harden is losing sleep over it.

Thanks to Major League Baseball scheduling today’s Game 3 of the NLDS between the St. Louis Cardinals and Washington Nationals at 1 PM, tonight’s sports action is pretty darn boring. How did the MAC get screwed out of a game tonight anyway? Couldn’t we schedule FAU against Middle Montana Community Tech State A&M? Just laziness.

MLB ALDS Game 3: Baltimore Orioles at New York Yankees – 7:30 PM ET on TBS

Like the Cards and Nats before them, the O’s and Yanks are all tied up at 1 game each in this best of 5 series of pure excitement. You know what’s been entertaining so far? Yankees fans crapping all over Derek Jeter. Stupid jerk hasn’t ever done anything for that team.
