We talk about who should make it as a reserve and who has impressed us thus far. Then we break down the top 25 college basketball teams and determine whether they are pretenders or contenders.

I apologize in advance to New England fans who may not want to add fuel to the fire of last night’s heart breaking loss. To the rest of the country who hasn’t already seen this hysterical video, Tom Brady’s Supermodel wife lashed out at Giants fans. This 30-second video was honestly better than any 30-second commercial NBC premiered last night. It’s also probably why models don’t do sports commentary for ESPN. Way to go Gisele, way to go.

We realize you’re not all from New York (and we aplogize). But haven’t Tom Brady and Bill Belichick won enough Super Bowls? Tonight is all about the G-Men, baby. You might have seen our Super Bowl Commericials Top 10 from yesterday, but today we’re gonna keep it simple. Every highlight of this past season, remixed to “Run This Town Tonight.” Totally fitting. Enjoy your Super Bowls, Socialites. Let’s all collectively hope that Gronkowski breaks something minor.

The best part of Super Bowl is obviously the action on the field, but a very close second is the awesome commercials. I, for one, am really looking forward to the Ferris Beuller commercials that are going to be aired this year, so much so that it got me to thinking: we should do a Super Bowl commercials post. Very original, I know. But just for kicks, here’s our favorites of the last 10 years. Some standards, some surprises, all amazing TV.

Chris Paul with the bounce pass, Kendrick Perkins blocking the lane, Blake jumps up, hand in Perkins’ face, SLAM. Jumping over a car with no blockers is one thing, but throwing down one like this in the middle of a game with defenders at point blank range is what basketball is all about. Is there anything Blake Griffin can’t do? I’ve always been a Lakers guy but something about a Clippers team with this much talent gives me hope.

The news of shifting to a defensive-minded head coach along with the firings of long time vice chairman Bill Polian, and his son, general manager Chris have all but signaled the Colts are officially in the dreaded “rebuilding” stage. Will Peyton Manning want to be apart of a rebuilding team and more importantly do the Colts want to keep Manning coming off a serious neck injury with the number one pick at their disposal? Let’s take a look at 5 potential teams that could be in play for the Manning sweepstakes with the writing on the wall that the Peyton era in Indianapolis is nearing an end.

The ever intense rivalry between the Central Michigan Lady Chippewas (red uniforms) and the Ohio University Bobcats (green uniforms) ended up in a bench clearing brawl last night. The two started at it and before you knew it, it was a WWE Diva’s Royal Rumble. Central Michigan went on to win the game, but for my money, Ohio won the real fight.

Nike has now taken their talents to the world of College Basketball, committed to their goal of constantly being on the cutting edge of uniform style and technology. Looks like they killed it once again with the Hyper Elite Platinum Uniform. University of Kentucky and 8 other schools will wear the uniforms in select games this season. And they look sick.

Ok, maybe the Billy Cundiff, Ray Finkle comparisons are getting a little old. If I wanted to count on my hands the number of friends who posted Facebook statuses or Tweeted clever quips about kidnapping Dan Marino and Snowflake the dolphin, I would need to be Goro from Mortal Kombat. Got old quick, but you knew eventually somebody was going to make the video.

Baltimore might have brought us great cultural staples like The Wire, Babe Ruth, and Domino Sugar. But that town bleeds purple to a point of tactlessness, horrifying to a tasteful North-Easterner such as myself. So for all of us in the rest of the world, lets watch some Ravens fans and laugh. Patriots fans not welcome. You should have lost that game and you know it.
