In the Year 3000, Scottie Pippen gets his due



There is one thing that I do know for sure, mostly likely none of you that are reading this blog will be alive in the year 3000. Unless, you've perfected a transportation device by then.

In this mockumentary YouTube clip, we learn what people in the year 3000 think about our current specifically, one of the greatest bands of all time, "The Beatles."

Yep, led by John Lennon, George Harrison, Paul McKinsey and Scottie Pippen.

Lawrence Frank Speaks to God

Over the weekend, the New Jersey Nets lost their 17th consecutive NBA game and former head coach Lawrence Frank lost his job.

Well, in these trying times, some people like to look to God for an explanation. Our crack staff at TNLP, (Mainly some dude with tin-foil on his head who keeps complaining about voices) tuned into this conversation between Lawrence Frank and God.


Frank: Are you there God? It's me, Lawrence Frank


G-D: I am here my child, what is puzzling you?

Frank: Well, I recently fired for my job but I do not think it's my fault. Why did the New Jersey Nets fire me?

G-D: Well, the team did not receive a win this season Lawrence, I expect that was the reason why.

Frank: But, the team is horrible God and my best player was out for injury for a period of time. It could not be my fault.

G-D: Well, my son. There are certain situations in our lives where some of these things are out of our control. However, this is a teaching tool for you to use at a later date.

Frank: To be honest, G-D. For some reason, your answer does not seem sufficient to me.

G-D: My Son, Why?

Frank: Well, I always remember the passage in Genesis 4:4 which reads, "And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering"

G-D: Are you calling yourself a sacrificial lamb?

Frank: Well, yeah. C'Mon, even the Timberwolves have a win and they suck more than we do.

G-D: Didn't they beat you?

Frank: That's beside the point. Did I not get sacrificed like the lamb in the passage?

G-D: Well, I guess so. However, never quote scripture again to me.

Frank: Thanks God, that's all for now wait. Actually, I got one more question.

G-D: What is that my son?

Frank: Did you create Megan Fox?

G-D: I'm not responsible for that one, my child. I think the Lord Satan is strong in that one.

(Bobby Simmons runs into the room)


Bobby: God, Are you there? Can you get me a trade out of here? God? God?

San Antonio Spurs: Iron Chefs



When I think of the San Antonio Spurs, I do not think of comedy or even commercial appeal. (Well, unless Eva Longoria Parker is present.)

This is a relatively amusing commercial that features Manu Ginobli, Tim Duncan and Tony Parker in an Iron Chef-like battle to create new ice cream flavors for HEB.

Well, I mean George Gervin needs to get paid, right?

What the Hell did Charles Barkley do to Wayne Newton?



On last night's edition of Inside the NBA, Ernie Johnson talked about the Marv Albert/50 cent story.

Then, they talked about another celebrity fued. One between Charles Barkley and Wayne Newton.

I think they almost killed Kenny Smith with this joke.

Charles Barkley on Jimmy Kimmel Live

Way back on Wednesday, Charles Barkley made a guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. During his interview, he talked about his need to lose weight and the fact that he is learning Spanish.

After that, he faced off against Jimmy Kimmel in a Battle Royale in tetherball. Yep, the round mound of rebound took on the tetherball and lost.

I'll take his word that he never played before.





Never give the "Choke Sign" to Reggie Miller



In the previous post, I said that we would be off till Monday. Well, I figured that i'll break that rule for this.

During last night's Utah Jazz/Chicago Bulls game, a Utah Jazz season ticket holder was given the shot to make a blindfolded half-court shot for one million dollars. (Wait this sounds familiar....College Humor Did It Already)

However, this was a prank and the fans were told to act like he had made the shot. The fan thought it happened and then ran over to TNT broadcasting and gave the choke sign to Reggie Miller.

Well, he was told of the joke and Reggie gave it back to him. I do find it funny that the fan asked for a check when he came over to apologize.

Stay Classy, Utah.

Golden State's Lucky Number is 6


Last Night, Golden State Warriors fans could understand if the team was a little tired after their victory against the Dallas Mavericks.

The reason why? Well, the Warriors only played six guys. We get more from Deep Six: A Warriors Fan Blog

For more than a year, the Warriors have been busy making excuses. Over the last four games, they’ve been busy making statements. The loudest and clearest one yet came Tuesday night with the 111-103 win against the Mavericks. Down to 6 healthy players (and one D-League call-up), missing their head coach, on the road, and facing a team with five wins in a row, the Warriors had plenty of prime ways to explain away a loss. They didn’t need them. The supposedly not-ready-for-prime-time youngsters looked awfully ready — playing through turnovers, mistakes, and cramps to come from behind in a gutsy show of focus and intensity. Take almost any dismissive statement directed at the youth over the past year — Curry and Ellis can’t play together, Randolph makes too many mistakes, Morrow is too one dimensional, Ellis isn’t a leader, none of them can play defense. This game just provided a concise and spirited rebuttal.

It is pretty impressive if you think about it: Monta Ellis, Anthony Morrow, and Vladimir Radmanovic played the entire game against a pretty stacked Dallas opponent.

This was the first time that a team won with six players since the Baltimore Bullets way back in 1960's. Remember those great teams led by Earl Monroe and Wes Unseld? The last time that a team dressed only six players was the Pacers after the "Malice in the Palace" back in 2004.

So big ups to the Golden State Warriors, they again prove the theory that playing for 48 minutes actually means playing all 48 minutes.

Chris Kaman is One Creepy Lookin' Dude Back Then


Recently, I was sent this post by UnAthletic Mag about the change that Chris Kaman's hair went through during his career and his improved play when he cut his hair.

Seriously, there was a period of time where Chris Kaman looked like the guy who you expected to come through the door during horror movie holding an ax.

Some of the below pictures remind me of something that you would see in an episode of Rod Serling's Night Gallery. If you have children who are squeamish, look away from the HORROR, the HORROR.

PostScript- Apologizes to Chris Kaman for any harm done to his dating life from this post.

Ron Artest on Jimmy Kimmel Live



This is one of those days that I regret that I did stay up to watch Jimmy Kimmel Live as his guest was Lakers forward Ron Artest.

Artest, a TNLP favorite, decided to do the interview in his drawers and well, I mean it's Ron Artest, he said interesting and non-sensical things in his drawers.

The real question was Jimmy Kimmel Live ready for Ron Artest? I'm still trying to answer that question.

Shaq as a Deputy Sheriff? Not So Fast, My Friend


Remember the story about Shaquille O'Neal becoming a Deputy Sheriff in Cleveland, Ohio?

Well, the Cleveland Metro Police Department has decided that they are not going to just hand over the badge to the Big Aristotelian.

We get more from the Cleveland Plain Dealer:

It won't be easy for Cavaliers center Shaquille O'Neal to become a deputy in Ohio, according to a report.

O'Neal, who has a brief history in law enforcement, applied to become a special deputy in Ohio.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported Sunday that he must pass a test and undergo training first.

"It appears that Mr. O'Neal will need to undergo substantial additional training as well as successful completion of the state certification examination before he can become a certified peace officer in the state of Ohio," Holly Hollingsworth, spokeswoman for the state attorney general, said.

Shaq was a special deputy sheriff when he was with the Miami Heat. Just think of the image if your a criminal and your getting chased by Shaquille O'Neal.

C'Mon Cleveland, I'm pretty sure that the police could use some back-up with a city that has a relatively high crime rate. I guess that NBA Championship means more, huh?
