Just call them Miami Thrice.  The King and his Court.  Cerberus.  Whatever you want to call them, LeBron James has made his decision and thrown his lot in with some friends, namely fellow free agent Chris Bosh and Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade, to form a new super team on South Beach.  It was announced last night during LeBron James:  The Decision, that one-hour celebration of reckless narcissism televised live on ESPN.

These are two of the best players in the NBA in the person of James and Wade, and a great lower-level star in terms of the relatively unknown Bosh (who played this out well to raise his profile).  Who is going to lead the team?  Who plays point guard?  Who else could this team sign to fill out the roster?  If I’m an NBA player and I want a ring, does Miami become my first choice over LA or Orlando?

More importantly, does this kill basketball in permanently-miserable Cleveland?  Does this make Team USA (everyone pictured above except Carmelo Anthony…yet) an even better squad, since three of the team’s top players will be playing together full-time?  Will they even co-exist without a blow-up?  Who knows!

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
