Vince Carter is still casually throwing down 360-degree dunks in his 40s
It's been more than two decades since I became obsessed with Vince Carter as a high school freshman. This “Diamond from Daytona” and “High Riser” (It was still cool to like Dick Vitale then) captured my imagination upon arriving at UNC to the point that I got his Tar Heel-blue jersey as a birthday present. Sadly, I couldn't take it with me to college when I attended ACC rival Wake Forest, but it always had a special place in my closet at home.

Carter dazzled with each college game he played, turning even missed dunks into spectacular highlights. This didn't change after he entered the NBA, becoming the league's most electric player and solidifying his status as the GOAT dunker in the 2000 Slam Dunk Contest. Well, flash forward 18 years and Vince Carter is still pulling off 360 dunks as he approaches a 42nd birthday in January. Sure, it's in a layup line, and it's not as explosive as in ..
Wind gust blows Justin Rose’s ball five feet from the hole as British Masters continues its wacky streak
The British Masters, much like you're drunk, middle-aged single uncle at Thanksgiving, has gone completely off the rails. It's moved well past the “oh he's only three Miller Lites deep and cracking questionable jokes” phase and gone straight to the “TRUMP/KANYE 2020” phase after all you did was ask him to pass the gravy. Case in point, this massive wind gust blowing a long Justin Rose putt about six feet from the hole, robbing him of a tap-in:

Seriously, what is going on in England? We've seen a pair of driver-off-the-deck shots on the SAME HOLE on consecutive days both roll within three feet of the cup. And one of them was by Rose!

The other was from Andy Sullivan, who nearly holed it for an albatross:

Nate The Great sure looks like he's primed to win a fourth NBA Slam Dunk Contest, huh? Of course, that would require him actually being in the NBA, but details, details. . .
Sadly, it's been more than eight years since Robinson won the last of his record three Dunk titles (Yes, that includes that year he was allowed about 100 attempts. C'mon, he's 5-foot-9!) and nearly three years since he played his most recent NBA game. After playing in Israel, the D-League, and Venezuela, Robinson signed a contract in August to play in Lebanon.
The former two-sport star at the University of Washington also had an unsuccessful tryout with the Seattle Seahawks since his last NBA stint, and according to his Wikipedia page, opened a chicken and waffles restaurant in his nati..

Yes, your weekend was just made.

LongHorn's beverage experts waltzed into a Knob Creek rackhouse and handpicked over 200 different casks. What this means is that the LongHorn Single Barrel Reserve you get in Omaha ..
