That’s What We Do
With Z-man’s eye for talent, and Isiah Jones’ ridiculous skills, the two are a match made in heaven. And to hear the two of them talk about their string of successes, well, it’s just what they do.

“The Fine Print” by Zachary “Z-man” Rubenstein
Like most red-blooded Americans, when you heard the news that Delaware had legalized sports betting, you were probably ecstatic. When I got the update on my blackberry, I chestbumped my social studies teacher — it was a little awkward, but it seemed right at the time. And while the news is fantastic, Delaware missed a […]

“Respect for the Classics” by Zachary “Z-man” Rubenstein
This year, Mrs. Russo spent half the semester trying to teach my classmates and I why Romeo and Juliet is one of the classics — a timeless tale, she said, that has never lost its power and impact. Quite frankly, I thought she was full of shit. Let’s face it, the Capulets are a bunch […]
“His name says it all” by Darnell Goodman
I was caught off guard this morning when I heard that former NBA player Corie Blount was sentenced to a year in jail after police intercepted 11 pounds of marijuana being sent to him. I’d heard about the whole ordeal a while back, but the news that police also stumbled across another 18 pounds stashed […]

Sixth Man of the Day: LaLa Vasquez
Who you calling a thug, Mark Cuban? Because LaLa Vasquez just made Kenyon Martin look like a pussy. Sure, K-Mart’s gonna take care of it…with a conversation? LaLa knows how to take care of things the right way, and it begins and ends with her fist (watch the security guard block her nasty right hook). […]

Sixth Man of the Day: Aaron Brooks
Sure, he’s a starter, but let’s face it — the world had no idea how nasty Aaron Brooks was before the playoffs. And until last night, no one had any idea how stylish the former Oregon Duck is. So while we have to credit him for his gutsy performance last night, that’s not why he’s […]
“Evidently, fans need agents also” by Zachary “Z-man” Rubenstein
We’ve all seen the footage of the Orlando Magic fan who got shoved by Big Baby Davis after last night’s game-winner. This morning, it made even bigger news when the father of the young fan, Ernest Provetti, emailed league offices complaining about the shove and going so far as to compare Big Baby to a […]
Sixth Man of the Day: Ron Artest
Normally, we don’t give the coveted Sixth Man of the Day award to a star like Ron Artest, but when someone can laugh about himself like Ron did last night, you gotta take notice. Take a look at what Ron has to say about his trip into the stands last night. The good part starts […]
“The Five-O” by Darnell Goodman
I’ve had my fair share of run-ins with the law. Just last month, I got ticketed in Tijuana for having a trunk load full of eleven Mexican strippers. The legal limit’s eight…who knew? But one thing that Darnell Goodman has certainly never done is gotten himself tasered. Good luck, JW. You’ll need it.
Spud’s Shortlist: A little bit of Soul, Pippin on Midgets, and the gayest picture you’ve ever seen
Scottie Pippin has a newfound appreciation for little people. (Afrojacks) In case you were wondering, Bobby Knight still doesn’t enjoy discussing chair tossing. (via Awful Announcing–jump to 2:30 for the fun part) Are you a T-Wolves fan? Didn’t think so. But just in case… (Randball) Dirk Nowitzki gives a hell of a handjob. (At Large) If […]

Sir Charles calls Kevin Garnett
People yawned when the Lakers and Cavs finished off their first round opponents with ease. And no one batted an eye as Philadelphia got a few gutsy victories over Orlando. But let’s face it — it’s all about the Bulls-Celtics series. So after dissecting game 5 from every angle, our own Sir Charles picked up […]

Spud’s Shortlist: Birdman, Hip Hop explained, and congrats to Jason Terry
Sign the petition to bring back Birdman! (Denver Stiffs) Good thing Charles never used these on Dominique Wilkins… We think the Cavs should stick to their pregame routines. As you can see from the chart, the relationship between “money” and “problems” is directly proportional. Is this kid the next D-Wade? Congrats to Jason Terry on […]

Sixth Man of the Day: a moment of silence for Leon Powe
No KG? Fine. No Leon Powe? The Celtics are fucked. Let’s face it, with Leon Powe now out for the rest of the playoffs, the spark that “The Show” has provided the Celtics with throughout the season will be sorely missed, especially with the other injury woes that the Celts face. So, as we shed […]

Sixth Man of the Day: John Calipari
When Kentucky brought on John Calipari, they knew that their recruiting would improve. But did they have any idea as to the lengths that Calipari would go? We think not. Therefore, we’re proud to make John Calipari our Sixth Man of the day, for his willingness to recruit toddlers. According to Jerry Tipton of the […]

Sixth Man of the Day: Jeff Van Gundy
What, you thought we were gonna forget about little old JVG? We don’t play favorites here at the GSF. So in honor of his baldness, enthusiasm, and willingness to grab a seven-footer’s leg like a miniature poodle whenever necessary, Jeff Van Gundy is our Sixth Man of the Day.
Sixth Man of the Day: Stan Van Gundy
If you couldn’t tell, we here at the GSF love the Brothers Van Gundy. And seeing as Stan’s always getting the short end of the stick, we’d like to honor him by making him our sixth man of the day: And, for a different take on Stan, check out Dwight Howard’s imitation of his lovable […]

The Van Gundy Brothers
We all know that Stan Van Gundy is a Coach of the Year candidate and his brother Jeff will be calling the games this post-season. But do you ever wonder what the wacky brothers Van Gundy do in their spare time? Man, these guys really know how to cut loose, eh? But we’re still pulling […]

Spud’s Shortlist: D-Wade’s block party, aspiring strippers, Taiwanese ballersSpud’s Shortlist: D-Wade’s block party, aspiring strippers, Taiwanese ballers
We had no idea Shaq was so pressed for cash. (Ball Don’t Lie) In honor of Dwayne Wade’s 55 point explosion last night, we’d like to remind you that this guy dominates both ends of the court. (ESPN Video) Vote Kevin Love. (NBA.com) Let’s take a moment to honor the one and only Bill Bellamy […]
Tribute to the Sixth Man
If you’re a Knicks fan, and this doesn’t bring a tear to your eye, you’re a heartless bastard. Little known fact: Seattle has a thriving German community, thanks to this man. Why does everyone have an Uncle who loves to smoke weed? Would you hit a guy who’s wearing glasses? Gravity? What’s that? Yo quiero […]
