In it, “an unidentified Laker fan” sports O’Neal’s No. 34. I can see how it would be tough to identify that Laker fan. After all, Flea is from a band called…

J Bo reflects — with eloquence, grace and proper spacing — on the Phillies’ first win of the 2013 season. *In which I, blatantly ripping off Deadspin’s wonderful-but-retired Canseco motivational-poster premise, highlight the pinnacle of Philadelphia meteorologist/bon vivant “J Bo” John Bolaris’ Twit-sharing.

The Best Dunk I’ve Ever Seen Live [Updated]

Florida Gulf Coast Eagles 78, Georgetown Hoyas 68. (Gif H/T Bubbaprog) My story from NewsWorks (excerpt): Fieler was asked whether he had ever jumped as high as he did on that alley-oop.
