Extra Credit: The Machine

With Albert Pujols currently tearing up the Brewers, I thought it only fitting to post one of the best commercials ESPN has put out.

Extra Credit: Derrick Rose's Awesome New Commercial

I love his new commercial, especially since the two guys on the horses represent the Magic and Celtics while the matador I'm assuming represents the Heat.

Extra Credit: Devin Hester Sets Another Record

This week Devin Hester set the record for the most punt returns for a touchdown this week after this excellent return against Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers. Congrats to Hester and the Bears special teams on a great accomplishment!

Extra Credit: Roberto Clemente Highlights

I've been away for a few days but I've been working on a fairly big piece about Roberto Clemente. So after that little tease I thought for the latest Extra Credit video I'd post some of his best highlights.

Extra Credit: Heisman Hopeful Luck Lays Out Wright

While I won't be writing much (if anything) about college football as it goes on, I will be watching today as the season kicks off and as the favorite for the Heisman, I decided to look up some Andrew Luck highlights. While the one above won't be the ones he'll be needing to make if he ends up hoisting the trophy later this year, it's still a great play.

Extra Credit: Sting Is Here!

A great time in wrestling and a great ending to a pay per view, Sting makes a shocking return to take out the nWo. On a side note, I've been without internet access for the past two weeks so I'm sorry for the disappearance but I'm back now.

Extra Credit: The Miz is Awesome

After talking with people about how WWE doesn't put enough effort into their hype videos anymore I remembered this one from this year's WrestleMania. It was excellently done and really put The Miz over as someone who deserved to be wrestling at WrestleMania instead of a reality TV star who was riding that to some WWE fame.

Extra Credit: DeSean Jackson Rips Out New York's Heart

Does it get any better then this? After a huge comeback to tie the game and with just seconds remaining on the clock, DeSean Jackson bobbles the punt but picks it up and takes it to the house for the victory with no time left on the clock.

Extra Credit: Devin Hester Returns a Field Goal for a Touchdown

As a Bears fan I've seen all of Devin Hester's returns for touchdowns but this one is by far my favorite and with the NFL season quickly approaching I couldn't think of any better way to get ready then to watch some of our favorite plays from seasons past. First up, Hester surprises the Giants by catching their field goal attempt and takes it to the house!

Extra Credit: Carmelo's Coming Home

Today I've actually got two videos to post. The first one is the commercial that was played before Carmelo Anthony's first game as a New York Knick and the second video is a fan made version of the same commercial, only using clips from Carmelo in a Knicks uniform. Both are excellent and if you're a huge basketball fan like myself, probably gave you goosebumps the first time you saw them.

Extra Credit: Durant Catches Fire at Rucker Park

When I started this blog I told myself that when I wasn't going to just posting quick news updates and tidbits from here and there. I was going to be actually writing. But the problem with that is that I'm not writing every day so this place can go a week or more without getting some new content. So after brainstorming around a bit, I've decided that I'm going to be posting a video on here at least once a day that I feel is worth sharing. And to kick things off we see Kevin Durant doing what he does best, getting buckets at the world famous Rucker Park in Harlem.

With the lockout looking as if it's going to claim the NBA season this year players are looking elsewhere to showcase their uncanny ability to throw a ball into a hoop. Whether it's Deron Williams signing a contract to play in Turkey, Derrick Rose and Kobe Bryant taking their talents to the Philippines or Kevin Durant going from the Drew League in LA to Rucker Park in Harlem, these players are going to find a place to play basketball. "I do this" is a quote from Kevin Durant after all of this and if I do say so myself, he does it pretty damn well.
