The Daily Show Just Killed The NCAA And Their Insane Rules Last Night

Last night, The Daily Show investigated the story of Joel Bauman, who was stripped of his wrestling eligibility by the NCAA for putting out a rap song on YouTube. Not surprisingly, other hypocrisies were exposed. See it after the jump.

We Might Have 3-On-3 Basketball In The Olympics — What Should The National Trios Be?

The International Olympic Committee is considering adding 3-on-3 basketball as an Olympic sport in time for the 2016 Games in Rio, which is a fantastic idea. Though the decision won’t be made on the addition until August, it got us thinking: If we could only have three players from each country team up to play a half-court game, who gets the nod?

NBA Eradicates Fun, But More Specifically Pregame Rituals

The NBA says its players will now have a strict 90-second window between player introductions and tip-off. It could render a lot of fan-favorite pregame handshakes and rituals, like LeBron James’ chalk clap, extinct. And it has quite a few basketball players in a huff.

Why God Why Does LeBron James Want To Star In A Space Jam Sequel? (Don’t Answer That Question.)

I loved Space Jam. Absolutely loved it. I was also six-years-old and thought Michael Jordan had a knack for baseball. It was a shitty movie. The low point of several NBA legends. The low point of the Looney Tunes. The low point of sport cinema. So obviously, LeBron James wishes he could make a sequel, starring himself. Read more after the jump.

An Unbiased Barack Obama Basketball Scouting Report From Beer-Swilling Bro Of Note Tucker Max

Tucker Max, the author of I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell, is an asshole. A very honest asshole. He played basketball with the President daily while at the University of Chicago. So who better to give us a scouting report on Obama’s game?
