I saw this on line on niketalk.com yesterday. Why has this not made Sportscenter yet? What an amazing athlete!

Thanks lbb. I happened across this video a few nights ago and I watched it 3 or 4 times. Amazing catch! I love the outfielder's reaction as she tosses the ball back to him.

Cool!

That's pretty funny. What's this a viral ad for?

posted by NoMich at 11:17 AM on June 25, 2008

Amazing. (especially since it is usally hot than ________ in Fresno this time of the year).

omg - give that girl a contract!

It is a viral for Gatorade. The agency has also done a Tour de France type one.

wait wait, are you saying it's fake?

posted by worldcup2002 at 11:57 AM on June 25, 2008

It's a shame that it isn't real. That would have been incredible.

Time to drink some HATORADE!

Well, this one must be real.

It's a good thing I saw that this was a fake. I just got back from the jewelry store, and was on my way down to Fresno to propose when I heard it was a commercial. My wife would've killed me!

Double KO. I like the ref's reaction. This one's real, btw. Also, where did my link button go?

posted by tron7 at 04:30 PM on June 25, 2008

The guy on the left knocked out the guy on the right despite selling his punch half a foot short? Amazing. I'm not surprised the ref was surprised.

posted by JJ at 09:00 PM on June 25, 2008

Oh no, he made contact. It all goes rather quickly, but they both made contact with their punches.

posted by NoMich at 09:22 PM on June 25, 2008

So what is the ruling when both get knocked out?

posted by Ying Yang Mafia at 07:03 AM on June 26, 2008

They both lose?

posted by lil_brown_bat at 07:40 AM on June 26, 2008

Isn't that just the definition of combat sport?

From the ever-reliable Thursday roundup in the Guardian, a 6.3 metre slam dunk. In Japan. Like only they can. Or do.

You know what makes that 2 year old video so great? The word "GO" with an arrow pointing at the basket, written on the padded floor. Because, you know, the guy bouncing on the trampoline needs to be reminded which direction to jump.

Watch that 3 pt video once. Then watch it again. Did you notice the guy in the gorilla suit walk past? Wait, wrong video.

posted by gspm at 12:51 PM on June 27, 2008

I failed the basketball gorilla video test in my interactive computational media class. Did anyone else notice that we hit post #10000 the other day? No? Neither did I.

I had been waiting to post the 10,000th link, until I was reading the 10,002nd thread and realized I had missed my chance. Damn...

Seem to have reached the 10,000 moron count even faster. /grumpy

You calling my number squatting alter ego a moron? Wait... did I just self-link? Damn. I am a moron.

posted by JJ at 05:50 PM on July 01, 2008

So is it beneficial to have a low moron number or a high moron number? Cause there sure be some of both 'round these parts.
