Coming off his ESPY hosting thingie, LeBron James is making the next logical step in self-deprecating humor – hosting the season premiere of Saturday Night Live this fall.
“It’s nice to get people who aren’t in show business to host,” “SNL” producer Steve Higgins told Daily Variety. “Sports stars tend to be less frightened because they are used to performing in a live setting.”
Have to admit, this is a great move, and LeBron will probably do a fine job. Hopefully there are some skits about how he’s exhausted from working on his low post game and developing a pull-up mid-range jumper this summer.
Doubtful, huh?
Also doubtful is any chance we’ll pull off five posts in one day again anytime soon. What the hell’s this all about? Did we really used to do this every day?
Of course, this one barely counts – there are only like 120 words in it or something, and barely any substance. We really just wanted to write a bunch of words and make a bunch of sentences out of them, and stumbled on the LBJ news in Variety, then said, “Hey, that would be a good thing to write about, especially after the dog killing post.”
(Everyone was so right about LeBron not getting enough exposure playing in Cleveland – it’s been a disaster.)

With those shades on, all I can think is Maverick from Top Gun.
I did my best to try to put it on VIIIIIIBRAAAAATE.
Could someone come get Stephono out of my dresser?
Five posts…wow. It’s like the Cavalier of old. Next thing you know there’ll be another Orange Roundie video.
You know what’d really be awesome though? A movie about a dead snake. That shit’d be hilarious.
ESPY’s, USA Basketball, SNL, more Nike commercials….Yeah, he might be a bit worn out before the season even starts.
Cav, while LeBron is getting a lot of exposure, it’s still not as much as he would have in a large market….
I demand at least 476 posts today
Are you kidding, oh mighty one? I’m clear for at least like 3 weeks now.
I will forgive you this once since I spent much of last night watching parts of Arrrrrr Kelly’s epic hip-hopera “Atrapado en el armario,” wondering out loud “so I assume this is a parody of the video” often enough that my brother yelled “No, idiot, that’s all part of the same video.” I mean, for my sake, I am omniscient, how did I miss this? HE SINGS IN A REDNECK ACCENT. It’s the greatest thing ever committed to film, save for an upcoming flick about a snake. Also, if you don’t think I will be forcing hip-hopera into conversations as often as possible, you are mistaken.
well now you have to ease us off the cav-junk slowly…like down to 3 today. then 1 tomorrow. then you can take the weekend off and never come back.
there are so many amazing things about trapped in the closet on so many different levels (in fact, I don’t think it’s too much of a stretch to declare it the greatest work human civilization has ever produced), but one of my favorite pieces of random is that in the video Omar freaking Little plays the cop (!) who’s cheating with R.’s wife (I think) but has his own white wife who R. is also cheating with!
According to Wikipedia…
Chapters 13-22 are scheduled to be released July 24th, 2007.
Okay I just ordered the DVD – I need to see the entire commentary.
10 more chapters? are you fucking serious? I feel like R’s amazing off-key, don’t care about the beat at all detailing of minutaie is on the verge of becoming an energy source powerful enough to replace fossil fuels and lead us into a new Golden Age of Sustainable Kelly. Personally, I’m hoping for a new conundrum with another enigmatic piece of furniture, like maybe an armoire or a divan.
Oh, Wikipedia revealed to me that both “A Prince Among Thieves” and “Deltron 3030″ qualify as hip-hopera. So that’s good to know.
R. Kelly’s middle name is Sylvester, that’s incredible
um, Sylvester rhymes with dresser. coincidence? i think not.
Aww crap Cav. If you really have to see the entire commentary then blog suicide is complete. Well done, I’ll miss YAYsports. You go Cobra!
