NBA 2K18, Instagram

Boston fans aren’t the only ones upset with the trade of Kyrie Irving to the Celtics. The trade also has caused a teeny, tiny little issue for the folks over at NBA 2K18.

You see, NBA 2K18 is all set to drop on September 19th boasting all kinds of killer new features and graphics like this…

The problem is, Kyrie Irving is on the game’s cover this year.

You can see how this might be an issue, right?

Fixing the other key player in the trade, Isaiah Thomas, is not a problem, as they have already taken care of that…

But…

Whoops, indeed.

Naturally, Twitter had solutions. Not good ones, but at least they tried. Sort of.

Actually, that last one is pretty solid.

Is there an NBA 2K18 Curse?

At least the Raptors don’t have any plans to trade DeMar DeRozan anytime soon, right?

Via Lagunitas Beer

Drinkers will tell you that throwing down a few beers is the best way to get buzzed. Stoners will tell you that smoking weed is the best way to get high. Why not both?

Lagunitas Brewing Company has released an IPA infused with cannabis, that is sure to make everyone happy. The California-based brewery teamed up with cannabis product manufacturer CannaCraft, which produces cannabis vape cartridges under AbsoluteXtracts, to bring the marijuana beer named “Supercritical” to the public.

Supercritical is made from cannabis. Cannabis and hops both have terpenes, which are the compounds of the plants that give it distinctive flavors and aromatics. Cannabis and hops (Humulus) are in the same family of plants called Cannabinaceae, which makes the conversion from weed to beer even easier. For Supercritical, Lagunitas chose a mix of the Blue Dream and Girl Scout Cookies marijuana strains and six different kinds of hops. The beer is said to have grassy flavors, earthy hops, hints of pine and citrus, and a “sticky finish.”

The IPA is 6.8% ABV, but don’t expect any weed highs since there is no THC included in the brew. The THC is separated from the terpenes, thus no psychedelic effects. The Heineken-owned Lagunitas only created one batch of 120 kegs of the cannabis beer and will only sell it in California until it runs out. “There may be more SuperCritical coming in the future, and this time, to other areas in the U.S.,” said Karen Hamilton, Lagunitas’s director of communications.

Last night the Clevelad Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics shook up the NBA world by swapping superstars Kyrie Irving and Isaiah Thomas in a huge blockbuster trade that is sure to change the landscape of the Eastern Conference for the years to come.

After the trade went down some Twitter detectives uncovered some old Tweets of Isaiah Thomas ripping his new teammate LeBron James on the social media platform.

Twitter never forgets.

There are some College Football programs who find themselves in the pre-season rankings no matter what they do. Part of it is their ability to always bring in blue chip recruits. Part of it might be the sports writers/coaches voting in the pre-season polls who venerate these programs of yesteryear like Baby Boomers longing for the days when you could leave your front door unlocked at night. There are countless reasons for some perennially underachieving programs to find themselves in the College Football rankings every year, but the fact remains that in any given year some of those teams are overrated.

Over at FiveThirtyEight, Greg Guglielmo analyzed data from the past 20 years and compared pre-season rankings to teams’ final season ranking (from 1997 to 2016). He included every instance where teams received votes even if it was outside of the top 25. It will come as no shock to anyone who follows College Football, but Notre Dame is the most overrated team in all of College Football.

Interestingly, this list of the most overrated teams in College Football looks similar to a pre-season ranking because it’s full of teams who are always ranked, teams that always win games. It’s also interesting that this list of the ‘most overrated’ is defined by data, unlike the list of the most overrated coaches in college football which was voted on by the coaches themselves. Now, without further ado, here are the 25 Most Overrated Teams in College Football over the past 20 years:

Via FiveThirtyEight

The list goes on, and you can see more of the most overrated teams in college football HERE on FiveThirtyEight. You can also see an in-depth explanation of why Notre Dame is the most overrated team in College Football, based on the numbers.

It pains me to write about this news because my alma mater is in the top 3 on this list, but I’m also able to accept the truth. During my years at FSU, we got absolutely destroyed by Miami and I was forced to live with Timmoth Tebow winning the Natty and Heisman just down the road at UF. It was the twilight of Bobby Bowden’s career and FSU wasn’t winning games like they did from 1987-2000 when the Seminoles won 2 National Championships and didn’t finish outside the AP top 4…2002 to 2012 is a lot of the reason FSU’s on this list.

Yesterday’s May-Mac “Grand Arrivals” event was a heated affair for UFC star Conor McGregor. Not only did Conor get into it with Paulie Malignaggi last night but he also nearly got into a fight with a heckling fan while entering the event.

At least we know that no matter what goes down on Saturday night that McGregor came ready for a fight.

Many, including myself, just assumed that Dwyane Wade’s return to his hometown Chicago Bulls meant that he would be ending his long and storied career there. Apparently, if the many rumors flying around turn out the be true, that will, in fact, not be the case.

According to ESPN’s Nick Friedell, Wade is not exactly beloved by his younger teammates on the Bulls.

“The young players on the Bulls really can’t stand Dwyane. It’s no secret in Chicago, they have had enough,” said Friedell on The Jump.

Also, according to Friedell, it’s just a matter of time before the Bulls buy out Wade’s massive $24 million contract.

“This is inevitable. It’s coming. It’s just a matter of when not if,” said Friedell. “But right now, guys, it’s just kind of a staring contest. Everybody’s looking at each other saying ‘OK, how much money are you willing to give up?’”

He continued, “This is a divorce that’s going to happen. But it may take some time.”

Which leads us to Cleveland where Joe Vardon said on the Wine & Gold podcast, “As of right now, people close to James are fairly confident that, at some point this year, Dwyane Wade is going to end up on the Cavs.”

Something tells me, based on the way General Manager LeBron reacted to the Kyrie Irving trade, he would be just fine with that…

Especially since Thomas probably won’t be ready for the start of the season…

By the way, Wade tweeted this just as news of the trade was breaking…

Make of that what you will.

Based on the sheer number of people I’ve seen post pictures of themselves posing at hot springs and in front of idyllic mountain landscapes, I’m convinced that I might be the only person in the world who hasn’t visited Iceland at some point in the past few years. However, that might have to change now that I know about the country’s newest wonder: beer delivery drones.

The future is here, and it is a truly magical place.

The Verge reports a drone logistics company called Flytrex has teamed up with a local delivery service in Reykjavík to make every lazy person’s dream come true. While customers in certain areas previously had to wait up to a half hour (the humanity!) for their orders to get delivered, the drones will be able to dramatically cut the time required to get products to their door by flying directly across a two-mile bay in the middle of the city that previously had to be circumnavigated.

The drones will still require some human assistance to complete the delivery, as they are not yet equipped to bring goods directly to a customer’s doorstep. However, the companies hope that in the future the drone will be able drop packages down via a wire, finally eliminating the need for human interaction once and for all.

All hail our new robot overlords.

Netflix/Disney

Welp, the end of summer is just around the corner. School is back in session and eventually temperatures will start to drop. Thank goodness every month Netflix provides us with a fresh new batch of reasons to never leave our couches. God bless them.

The month of September is no exception either as some of the new titles hitting Netflix over the next few weeks include new seasons of Narcos and Fuller House, a new Jerry Seinfeld special, movies like Gone Baby Gone, Gangs of New York, all four Jaws films, Pulp Fiction, and some Disney films including Beauty and the Beast, Hercules, Pocahontas and Mulan.

Also, as happens with each passing month, there are a few titles that if you were planning on watching them you better get to doing it because they will soon be “Gone Baby Gone.” Among them are movies like A Nightmare on Elm Street, Jackass 3.5: The Unrated Movie, Hope Floats and Sweeney Todd, as well as some popular TV shows including CSI: Miami and Last Man Standing.

Floyd Mayweather, Instagram

Floyd Mayweather is apparently so confident that he’s going to beat Conor McGregor this weekend that he’s going to bet a large amount of money on himself to win the fight. According to a report from RJ Bell from Inside Las Vegas, the 49-0 boxer is considering putting up $5 million dollars on himself to beat the UFC star during their showdown this weekend.

The current odds on the Mayweather-McGregor fight have Floyd at -400 which means he would pocket a cool $1.25 million on his $5 million bet.

One would think Mayweather would bet more money on himself if he was 100 percent sure he wasn’t going to lose.

Remember how Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson climbed that mountain last year to become the highest paid actor in Hollywood? (And Bollywood.) Yeah, those days are over. At least for 2017.

Because there’s a new money king in town and he’s actually worked with The Rock in a movie, Pain & Gain, and his name is Mark Wahlberg.

That’s right, a movie which scored a whopping 15% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, Transformers: The Last Knight, was enough to topple the most electrifying man in entertainment’s time at the top. Thanks to that dud and the forthcoming Daddy’s Home 2, 46-year-old Wahlberg managed to eek out the win this year over The Rock, who dropped to number two on the list, $68 million to $65 million, according to Forbes.

2015’s highest paid actor, Robert Downey, Jr., dropped all the way down to sixth at just $48 million. Poor guy.

Vin Diesel came in third at $54.5 million and no explanation is really necessary there, but Adam Sandler coming in fourth with $50.5 million might be a bit of a head-scratcher until you realize Netflix signed him to a $250 million deal to make four movies for them.

Here’s the entire very Marvel-heavy top 20 …

1. Mark Wahlberg – $68 million
2. Dwayne Johnson – $65 million
3. Vin Diesel – $54.5 million
4. Adam Sandler – $50.5 million
5. Jackie Chan – $49 million
6. Robert Downey, Jr. – $48 million
7. Tom Cruise – $43 million
8. Shah Rukh Khan – $38 million
9. Salman Khan – $37 million
10. Akshay Kumar – $35.5 million
11. Chris Hemsworth – $31.5 million
12. Tom Hanks – $31 million
13. Samuel L. Jackson $30.5 million
14. Ryan Gosling – $29 million
15. Ryan Reynolds – $21.5 million
16. Matt Damon – $21 million
17. Jeremy Renner – $19 million
18. Chris Evans – $18 million
19. Chris Pratt – $17 million
20. Mark Ruffalo – $13 million

Those three names in the middle of the list may be unfamiliar to Americans, but they’re big Bollywood stars on the other side of the planet.

Meanwhile, on the women’s side, Emma Stone topped Forbes’ highest paid actresses of 2017 list at $26 million, which would have put her 15th on the men’s list, right behind her La La Land costar Ryan Gosling.

Getty Image

1. Emma Stone – $26 million
2. Jennifer Aniston – $25.5 million
3. Jennifer Lawrence – $24 million
4. Melissa McCarthy – $18 million
5. Mila Kunis – $15.5 million
6t. Emma Watson – $14 million
6t. Charlize Theron – $14 million
8t. Cate Blanchett – $12 million
8t. Julia Roberts – $12 million
10. Amy Adams – $10.5 million

When it comes to brands that know how to diversify their products with fun flavors, Oreo is one of the best. They are not afraid to delve into interesting flavors such as PB&J, red velvet-flavored, jelly donut-flavored, and Peep-flavored Oreos just to name a few. M&M’s took a page out of Oreo’s playbook and introduced cookies and cream-flavored M&M’s.

We still have over a week left in August, but that doesn’t stop M&M’s from promoting their Halloween-themed flavor. Snack connoisseur Junk Banter, debuted this beautiful Oreos/M&M’s mashup that he said were purchased at Target. The flavor is called “Cookies & Screeem” for Halloween and this candy features a dark chocolate shell with white specks and a white chocolate filling. Junk Banter added that there will be “Triple Chocolate M&M’s coming this winter, which have milk, dark, & white.” Can’t wait. Got my insulin ready to go.

Encounter Sailing / YouTube

Last weekend was the 2017 St. Pete Open spearfishing tournament, just 45 miles North of where I’m sitting right now. In its 52nd year of competition, the St. Pete Open is dubbed the ‘largest spearfishing tournament in the world’. It’s a prestigious event within the relatively insular world of professional spearfishing, and it’s a huge honor to win the tournament.

Unfortunately for Bradenton, Florida firefighter James Taylor, he did not win this year’s event. However, his pending spearfishing world record for the largest grouper ever shot with a speargun is about as awesome of a consolation prize as you’re ever going to find. The current/previous spearfishing world record for Warsaw Grouper was 47 pounds (21.3 kg), caught by spearfisherman Chad Palan back on July 25th, 2010.

James Taylor just ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED that record by spearing a 409-pound Warsaw Grouper during the St. Pete Open while diving 85 miles offshore at a depth of 250 feet. The fish was weighed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and tipped the scales at 409-pounds. That’s 362 pounds more than the current Warsaw Grouper world record, and 198 pounds more than the largest grouper ever shot with a speargun. That honor is currently held by Dewey Hennessy who shot a 211-pound Gulf Grouper in Mexico decades ago on May 5, 1968.

Just look at this monster:

You can see some footage of the 409-pound world record grouper being weighed here:

For a complete list of the current spearfishing world records, you can click here. There are some very breakable world records out there in the field of spearfishing if you know what you’re looking for. (h/t ABC Action News)

Marvel

Chris Hemsworth is low-key one of the funniest guys in Hollywood. If you didn’t see him in the Ghostbusters reboot (and most of you didn’t) his comedy was one of the highlights of the movie.

Then there were those videos of Hemsworth, playing Thor, throwing shade at the other Marvel superheroes for leaving him out of Captain America: Civil War, and then these videos of Thor with his new roommate Darryl.

The best though might have been the video he made showing his response a “secret Avengers rehearsal.”

Today, however, Hemsworth has his sights on the sporting event everyone is talking about this week: Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor.

Obviously, based on the video above showing what he thinks of his co-workers in The Avengers, he’s not going to be very impressed with Mayweather and McGregor either. And he isn’t…

“Biggest fight in combat sports history, sorry Mayweather/McGregor,” wrote Hemsworth.

Love it.

I really need to join a yoga class.

NFL AD BUYERS EXPECTING RATINGS TO DROP AGAIN DURING 2017 SEASON

The NFL saw an 8% decrease in TV viewership during the 2016 season and ad buyers are projecting additional losses during the 2017 season. A Variety survey of commercial ratings projections (taken from the 3 top media buying agencies) indicated that fewer people are expected to watch commercials live during NFL games and within the 7 day period following the broadcast, than last season. While some believe the NFL has peaked, its games still draw higher ratings than just about anything else on television.

Howie Long Short: A drop in ratings means less ads to sell. Broadcasters promise ad buyers a number of impressions. If they fall short, they use future ads as “makegoods” to offset the difference. Needless to say, those are ads that can’t be sold to other buyers.

Fan Marino: For the first time in 25 years the NFL isn’t rapidly growing and the league’s owners are looking to give the Commissioner a 5 year contract extension through 2024. Why now? Who else is paying him $35 million/year?

INSTAGRAM’S NEW “LIVE WITH” FEATURE TO ENHANCE SPORTS BROADCASTS

Instagram (FB) has announced a new feature, to be introduced globally within the next few months, that is going to enhance sports broadcasts for fans. Tentatively known as “live with”, the newly developed feature will give broadcasters the ability to provide a viewer with the option to join the broadcast, as a co-host, in a split screen fashion. Real world applications for the technology include the ability to conduct remote interviews, to provide unique camera angle/view options and to connect players with fans/influencers.

Howie Long Short: Networks can save millions of dollars/year by broadcasting games remotely. Is this the first step to fan acceptance?

Fan Marino: Which broadcast network is going to be progressive enough to “live with” the Bills Mafia during their NFL pregame show?

YOGAWORKS PULLS OFF DISCOUNTED IPO

YogaWorks (YOGA) finally made its public debut, pricing 7.3 million shares at $5.50/per, while raising $40.2 million in the process. The company had previously tried and failed to sell 5 million shares at $12-14/per, citing “market conditions” while postponing its July 20th scheduled debut. While those bullish on YOGA cite a subscriber base that is 40% millennials and has 60% earning $75,000 or more, the nationwide yoga chain has posted net losses two years in a row. In the filing, the company which currently owns 50 studios, announced it is in deep negotiations on 14 more at a cost of $5-6 million.

Howie Long Short: “Market conditions” is code for lack of interest. In this case, the shares were simply overpriced.

Fan Marino: The company cited 30 million visits last year. If Millennials are making 12 million of those trips (40%), perhaps it isn’t avocado toast killing their chance of home ownership… Doesn’t anyone work anymore?!?

PROKHOROV NEGOTIATING ISLANDERS RETURN TO NASSAU COLISEUM FOR ’18-’19 SEASON

Barclays Center owner Mikhail Prokhorov is pressuring the Islanders to play a significant portion of their games during the 2018-2019 season at the Nassau Coliseum. Prokhorov, who also owns the Coliseum, is working to avoid defaulting on a contract signed by former owner Bruce Ratner, that guaranteed a professional hockey team would play at the recently renovated arena, in exchange for a contract to manage the facility. Negotiations are ongoing as the Barclays Center, which currently hosts the Islanders, is eager to get out the back-breaking deal that costs $55 million/year in guaranteed payments to the team, while the Islanders are looking for increased flexibility in the lease. The NHL has not announced if they would allow regular season games to be played at the Nassau Coliseum.

Howie Long Short: When stadiums/arenas sit vacant, they lose money. It’s unfathomable to think that the Barclays Center is actually better off without the Islanders playing games there.

Fan Marino: The site lines at the Nassau Coliseum were among the best in the NHL. Fully supportive of this move.

NEBRASKA SIGNS 11 YEAR DEAL WORTH $128 MILLION WITH ADIDAS; LARGEST CONTRACT EVER AWARDED TO AN ADIDAS SCHOOL

The Nebraska Board of Regents approved an 11-year deal worth $128 million ($64 million in cash, $64 million in apparel and equipment) to remain with Adidas (ADDYY). The new contract, the largest ever for an Adidas school, pays out $2.5 million more in cash and $1.6 million more in product, than the previous did in its first year. The school, which has been with Adidas since 1995, did not receive offers from Nike (NKE) or Under Armour (UA).

Howie Long Short: For comparison sake, UCLA, Adidas’ previous flagship school, signed a 15 year $280 million deal with Under Armour in 2016.

Fan Marino: Nebraska signed with Adidas in 1995. ’95 Nebraska was among the best teams of all time. Coincidence?

Meet the Cigar 36 Swiss Army pocket knife from Victorinox. I’ll assume that most of you are already familiar with the Victorinox Swiss Army brand, but, if you’re not familiar you should know that they make some of the best and most timeless Swiss Army knives on the planet. I got my first pocket knife all the way back in Cub Scouts, and it was a Swiss Army knife that didn’t look too dissimilar from the one right here. It’s a brand that has lasted since 1884 because of quality craftsmanship.

The Victorinox Cigar 36 Swiss Army pocket knife has a built-in cigar cutter which makes it very attractive to me right now. Shockingly, I don’t currently own a cigar cutter. I had one that I loved but I left it at a hotel earlier in the Summer after a wedding, so I’ve been on the hunt for a new cigar cutter since then. That’s what first caught my attention about this knife, but after checking out the reviews (4.1 out of 5 stars on Amazon) on this knife I’m truly impressed. At only $28, this knife is an absolute steal with all of loaded features
