Hilarious New Footlocker Ad

This wonderful new commercial from Footlocker shows Cleveland Cavaliers guard Kyrie Irving looking ahead to Foot Locker’s Week of Greatness by imagining what might happen when all is right in the world. The spot includes Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield hugging it out, Dennis Rodman flying to North Korea and not coming back, Brett Favre poking fun at his flip-flopping, and a hilarious cameo from Craig Sager.

North Korean propaganda video shows the U.S. ablaze

North Korea, already gearing up for yet another nuclear test, has posted a bizarre online video depicting New York under an apparent missile attack with “We Are the World” serving as a soundtrack.

The caption in the video reads, “Somewhere in the United States, black clouds of smoke are billowing.” “It seems that the nest of wickedness is ablaze with the fire started by itself.”

I think it might be time to just open up a ginormous can of whoop ass on these asshats.

If you are interested, this footage released North Korean Central News Agency shows ridiculous mass-weeping by people in Pyongyang, following the death of nation’s leader Kim Jong-il.

Why close quarters combat with the South Korean military is a bad idea

Here is a video of South Korea’s military displaying some unorthodox forms of fighting. I suppose being able to break concrete blocks with your head would come in handy if you ran out of ammo.

1. Want to see pictures of North Korea’s rusting, dilapidated amusement park. Apparently the government has to bus in a few loads of forced patrons just to keep the park from being absolutely empty. Full story here.
2. Barry Deley, a British-Columbian sports anchor, wins a house worth $2.5 million live on the air. When the winning name is drawn, it quickly dawns on the news team that it’s their own sportscaster. Watch video.
3. This is worth another mention. Check out this funny collection of dating videos from the 80s.
4. Options for Bunker Living. I’ve always wondered where they park their car? Story here.

4. I love this story about a guy named Taylor Baldry who thinks we have forgotton how satisfying it is to have fce-to-face conversations with people. He recently set up a table and chairs at Lake Calhoun with a sign that read “Free Conversations.” He has a menu board of topics he’ll discuss with you. For more than 2 1/2 hours, the folding chairs were never empty. (full story)
5. I love tree houses! I have never had one, but I think I want to build one someday. Maybe I’ll hire German treehouse design firm Baumraum to build it. Then I could have something like this!
