Throwin Down

I had to watch this, for times 465-505 this morning, to keep myself from completely renouncing the Warriors after the inexplicable Bellinelli for DEVEAN EFFING GEORGE???
trade.

This baby re-defined posterization.



I feel better now. I don't even care that we let Baron go too, and that Monta Ellis is making half our cap space even though he is a borderline all-star at best. We will always have '07...

Dude is crazy. This (almost) makes me want to go to UK next year. (Coach C, sign me up!)

Taylor Didn't Think This One Through

I have a face that needs to be added to Simmons's list of the Manning, Derek Lowe etc faces.

Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present the Taylor Swift, "I didn't do the math on how creepy this song would be with a dude who is old enough to be my dad and then some...I am going to try to get into this, but really I am wondering if I am contractually obligated to finish this song" face. High comedy.

And for the record, yes, I love this song.

More Rocket

It has been 2 1/2 months since I posted a Bure video...'nuff said.

Auto-tuner.....lives?

This is PHENOMENAL....thanks to deadspin and KSK for posting it first....

According to Jay, autotuner is dead, so this must be a requiem

Bros, anybody care to lax?

Anyone who went to prep school (or I would assume college on the east coast) knows a few kids like this...

(by the way, I really want to rock turfdogs, midcalfs, nice shorts and a lax penny with croakies and a nice pair of shades)

Old Time Hockey

Back from a lengthy hiatus here, with an all time classic.

Old time hockey, baby...it doesn't get any better than this.

On this one, 2:04 cracks me up, but kind of a cool video, especially for bay area hockey fans.

BO

If you were playing a video game, and some of these runs happened, you would say that they were unrealistic, and turn up the difficulty level.  This is phenomenal.

Linus Omark

Screw the KHL....



(I'm mad at myself for not posting this until now, I really did see the goal like 2 weeks ago, before it got around on to ESPN, TSN etc, but for anyone who hasn't sen it yet...you need to)

Another Bure Clip

This one is pretty simple, another montage from quite possibly the best goal scorer of all time.

I'm putting this one up because, well, it is my blog and I really like watching Pavel Bure play hockey.  And you should too.

THIS IS A MAUL

Per request, here is the video of the epic Jordin Tootoo-Brad Staubitz murde-- er, uh..fight.  I was at this game, and Brad Staubitz became an instant fan favorite.  It really was about as loud as that building gets (something I made a fair contribution to).  He also played 6 minutes and was named second star.  

Keep Your Head Up

We are coming at you with a theme tonight, and it is that you cannot put your head down around defensemen who love spin moves...

So here are two um...let's say "dressed up" clips of two of the larger hits in recent memory.

(i get chills from that one btw)

(the spoof thing is a little bit lame, but it was the only clip I could find of this hit)



Both extremely skilled defensemen....another example of hockey player being the most skilled athletes in the world (also becuase Umberger and Prucha can still, you know...walk)

Brave Steve = ****

I can't stand this punk....

Watch this one to get you fired up (the commentary is incredible by the way)



(you know it's bad when Avery comes off as the noble one)

Then watch him get speed bagged (even better, he got suspended for this)...



(that should also sell Sharks fans on the Moen trade)

Kovalev

It's a shame that it no longer translates to game situations, but my god this is impressive

THIS IS A BRAWL

Class is slow today, you very well may get 4 or 5 videos before I get out today...

Another absolute classic, a hockey fight that may never be topped.

The Original Ovechkin

This one really fits in with the Hall of Fame idea. A classic, really one of the first great hockey montages to appear on YouTube.

ON A BOAT

Not sports related, but hilarious...

Ryan Shannon

Sick move, high comedy...enjoy




(edit; better quality, plus this one has the EA Sports Guy)

Krosby-Covalchuk

The Sniper versus the playmaker...trash talking at it's best

(by the way, I love Crosby as much as the next heterosexual male hockey fan, but I can't help but find it hilarious how much he comes off as a spoiled little (rhymes with switch) in pretty much every altercation he gets into...my point? I have none, enjoy the clip)

The Russian Rocket

The First video here at the OVSYTHOF (I'll work on that, I promise) comes to us from someone who will be a frequent contributer, Pavel Bure.  Bure was the best hockey player in the history of the world.  While that may not be true, this video is sure to convince you he is or your money back (becuase it is free...see what I did there?).  Enjoy...

By the way, If you just stumbled upon this, and are looking for an explaination, there is one at the OV Sports mothership, ovsports.blogspot.com, please check that one out.
