I’m probably the only person in America that didn’t watch President Obama’s State of the Union address last night, but I have a good reason. Not only was I coming up with these awesome links for you, faithful readers, but Jarah Marino went bikini shopping (apparently there’s some great sales right now), and she needed me to help her pick one out.

- NBA Commissioner David Stern brought the hammer down yesterday on Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenton for their Wild West shootout a few weeks ago. Arenas has already agreed to not appeal the suspension. The real debate is whether the Wizards will try to bail out of Arenas’ gargantuan $110 million contract. Frankly, I don’t think anyone really cares about Javaris Crittenton. Except for his momma, she just loves her little Hercules (pronounced Her-kuh-lees for those keeping score at home).
- So storming the court when your favorite team beats a team it should have is ok, but knocking off an undefeated #1 squad led by the second coming of Jesus gets you fined $25,000. South Carolina was docked 25 stacks after students rushed the floor following their team’s 68-62 win over #1 Kentucky.
- For those of you who are partaking in the Herm to Hockeytown festivities on March 26th, The Triple Deke has a few rules and tips on general etiquette for the event. Combined with their awesome commercials for H2H, TTD has done a great job promoting the event, and I have a feeling they aren’t done yet.
- Chris Tomasson at NBA Fanhouse thinks that Richard Hamilton could be the next Piston to be traded. Personally, I wouldn’t want to see Rip be traded too, but I don’t think he’s seen Detroit as “home” ever since Chauncey Billups was traded away, and moving him now would probably be a smart business move. Hamilton was an integral part to the franchise’s success in the last decade and I hope to see his number retired along with Chauncey’s and Big Ben’s once this is all over.
- My joke yesterday about Brett Favre sleeping with other women, a la Tiger Woods? A bit funnier today, after the New York Daily News reported that Elin Nordegren, Tiger’s insanely hot (and just plain insane) wife is staying at Favre’s house in Mississippi while she visits Tiger. Why Mr. Woods is currently undergoing sex therapy in Hattiesburg, MS is anyone’s idea, but I see him and Favre having a Step Brothers-like moment in the near future. [via With Leather]
- Apparently all that ass isn’t enough protection. Kim Kardashian,
Ray J’sReggie Bush’s [insert NSFW term here], will be driven around Miami next week in a bulletproof limo. If I were Reggie, I’d go with a cheaper option: have Khloe follow her around all week. No guy would get within 100 yards of them! (Somewhere, Lamar Odom is not laughing.) [link via Hot Clicks, ass via Guyism]
- No big plans for the Super Bowl? Got some extra cash lying around? If this sounds like you, Chad Ochocinco is throwing a house party for this year’s big game… for $250 a ticket. If I had the cash, I would rather spend it on good booze (for once) and have a night to not remember. But if you wanna meet #85 that bad, hey man, it’s your money.
Rob’s Highlight of the Day
You’ve probably already seen this on Sportscenter today, but it’s worth watching again. North Carolina high-schooler Deuce Bello threw down a between-the-legs dunk in a game. I can only imagine what his coach would have said if he had missed it.
