That’s probably the sweetest punch this dude has ever eaten in his life. You’re telling me the Mets can win a World Series Game 7 or the Jets can win the Superbowl, and all I gotta do is eat a punch? F*ck it. I’ll take two with a side of a kick to the nuts. There are few feelings in life sweeter than your beloved team finally winning it all.

Kristin Smith Tiger Woods Girlfriend

Tiger Woods hasn’t been doing too well in the world of golf, but we can’t say the same for his dating game. Meet Kristin Smith, a beautiful 32-year-old blonde bombshell who’s also a celebrity stylist. She is like the umpteenth blonde that Tiger has dated in his lifetime. But Smith’s no newbie either. She’s the mother of a boy and was briefly married to Dallas Cowboys player Gerald Sensabaugh.

The news of the happy couple comes from Smith’s cousin, who told RadarOnline that the relationship is “awesome.” But beyond that, there’s not much other news of the relationship. Apparently the cousin isn’t allowed to go into too much detail.

In addition to working on her own, Kristin Smith also owns a personal styling group called the CLAD Life. One of their customers is Candice Crawford, the wife of Tony Romo.

Joe Maddon Putting On His Deceased Father’s Cap After Winning World Series Is Why Sports Are Great

Does anyone in sports seem as awesome as Joe Maddon? Just do a quick Google search of his name and you’ll find story after story of Maddon just being an all around excellent dude.

While Joe Maddon manages the Cubs, he carries an Angels hat around with him in his bag.

Via USA Today:

Omens, I don’t know. I did see my dad’s hat in my bag today. I carry my dad’s hat with me.

He passed away in 2002, we won the World Series, and I’ve had his old Angel hat in my bag since then. So it goes everywhere. So the one thing I’m relying on today is my dad. I held onto his hat a little bit this morning, and that’s probably the omen in a sense going into this game.

Maddon put the cap in his back pocket to start the 10th inning, and we all know what happened next. Watch Maddon’s incredibly emotional post-game interview here.

Cubs Fan Reactions

The Chicago Cubs won the World Series last night, something that hasn’t happened in 108 years. There are literally people who have lived and died without experiencing what you had the opportunity to watch last night. Multiple generations have come and gone during the Cubs’ World Series championship drought.

But through it all, the Chicago Cubs fans have stuck with their team–through thick and thin, even though most of it was definitely thin.

There were hundreds of people who recorded their reactions to the final out of the 2016 World Series, and all of them are the same: pure joy. These aren’t the reactions you’d see from Yankees fans or SF Giants fans. Not because Yankees and Giants fans don’t love their teams, but because they’ve won multiple World Series titles in recent history. These are the kinds of tears that have been building up for years. These are tears that were passed down from fathers, and even grandfathers, to their children.

And now they’re finally able to celebrate something many of them never believed would happen: the Cubs winning the World Series. Congratulations to the city of Chicago.

But it didn’t just stop with the Cubs fans still here on Earth. There were multiple dedications from both the Chicago Cubs front office and from fans to the Cubs fans who are no longer with us.

Cubs Fan Drove 600 Miles To Listen To World Series Win With His Father At His Grave

I’ve long said that if you’re not going to root for the same sports teams as your father, then what’s the point? At the end of the day, sports are just a bunch of people cheering for shirts and colors. Professional athletes move from team to team and never really give the fans a second thought. At the end of the day, sports are hollow. But not when you root for the same team as your father. When you root for the same team as your dad, sports becomes more than a game, it becomes a tradition. It becomes a way for your family to bond. It brings you and your father closer. That’s what sports are all about, and Wayne Williams knows that.

Wayne Williams, a North Carolina man, drove 600 miles back home to Indiana to keep a decades-old promise to his father. Williams’ father, a Navy veteran, died at age 53 in 1980.

Via WTHR:

“Got a W flag. Not supposed to fly until after the actual win,” Williams said, going over his supplies. His dad, also named Wayne Williams, was waiting for him. “I talked it out with my boys forever. I let them know that I told my dad – we had a pact. When the Cubs – not if, when – the Cubs got into the World Series, we would make sure we listen to the games together,” Williams said.

Williams set up camp in the military section of Greenwood Forest Lawn Cemetery after an all-day drive from North Carolina. “World War II, he was a signalman,” Williams said. “He was at Normandy, D-Day +8. He had not turned 18 yet.”

So not only was Williams dad a vet, but he was like THE vet, having fought in many major WWII battles. True definition of a hero.

It may have been the Navy that made his dad a Cubs fan.

“I think it was because when he was at boot camp at Great Lakes. He probably went to some games, because Wrigley’s brought the guys out there for these things and it was the closest thing to big-time baseball he’d ever seen,” Williams said.

Maybe the best part of the whole story is when WTHR asked Wayne if he thinks his father is up there following the game with him. His answer is nothing short of tear-jerking:

We asked Wayne if he thinks big Wayne is up there following the game with him.

“Knowing him, no. He was a hell raiser, baby. He was a hell raiser,” Williams said.

So here’s to you, Wayne Williams. We’re happy for ya. Thank your father for his service, will ya?

Chicago Cubs World Champions: Championship Parade Details

Hell has frozen over, pigs can fly, and the Chicago Cubs won the World Series. After a 108 year drought, the “lovable losers” have finally brought back a title to Chicago after defeating the Cleveland Indians in Game 7 in what was one of the most thrilling sporting events that I have ever watched.

There was a lot of speculation that the Chicago Cubs World Series Parade would be on either Friday or Monday of next week, but Mayor Emanuel Rahm just announced at a press conference the parade will be on Friday, November 4th, 2016. There’s a lot of preparation that the city will need to take care of between now and then, but you can bet that the people living there will do whatever they can to help.

The exact time and route of the parade is still in the air, but some details are starting to come forward. The parade will start at Wrigley Field and end at Grant Park by around lunchtime. The timing of the parade works out well, because even though it’s being rushed, the public school kids have the day off for “Teacher Development Day.”

“I just talked to Tom Ricketts. I talked to him yesterday a couple times, I talked to him this morning again,” Emanuel said when asked about the parade. “I think all of us would just want 20 minutes of consistent sleep, then we’re gonna — Here’s the thing: we’re going to have a parade in Chicago that will stand the test of time. It will be a parade that 108 years have waited for. It will be a parade and a celebration that all of Chicago for 108 years in their mind’s eye, have been envisioning. We’re going to make it a reality in the city of Chicago.”

The Cubs may have waited over 100 years to finally win a championship, but the city of Chicago is no stranger to championship parades, as the Chicago Blackhawks have had three of them in the past six years.

We will keep you up to date as to when the parade is going to be held, but in the meantime enjoy the hell out of this Cubs fans. This was truly a once in a lifetime moment for a lot of you, and you deserve to soak up every second of it.

I’m back, bitches. After going 2-3 the week prior, I bounced back last week going 3-2, including hitting my Lock of the Week. That’s how you rebound (take notes Golden St Warriors and Cleveland Indians). We’re getting deeper into the College Football season, so I have a much better feel for each team now… not really, but I’ve convinced myself that I do. There’s a great slate of games this week, and could be the week I go 5-0. So gather ’round everyone and enjoy these winners:


Oklahoma St +3 @ Kansas St

This has trap game written all over it, but I don’t care I’m riding with the Cowboys. They score points in bunches, and from the one time I watched Kansas State this year they did not, given it was only the first game of the season, but that’s not the point. Plus, when push comes to shove I’m always going to take the team with the cooler jersey, which just happens to be OK State. And just so everyone knows, Bill Synder is an overrated coach who has never won a goddamn thing in his life.


Army -2 vs Air Force

I haven’t been giving any love to our troops this year, but that changes now. I know nothing about these teams other than their records, and that they both seem to get their teeth kicked in when they play Navy each year. I’m going with the Black Knights because I like how they’re the home team, and every now and then I would play with them in NCAA Football, which is a travesty that it’s no longer in existence. Fuck you, EA Sports.


Alabama -7 @ LSU

Alabama is the best team in football this year, that’s just a fact. They’ve had a few close games, but, for the most part, they haven’t been tested at all, and I don’t expect that to change on Saturday. Look, I know Death Valley is a brutal place to play at, especially at night, and you definitely can’t look past how the Tigers are 3-0 against the spread since they made a coaching change, but Alabama is the better team and Nick Saban lives for ripping out the souls of innocent people. Their offense can roll out of bed and put up 40 points, and I don’t see that changing Saturday night. ROLL DAMN TIDE!


Texas Tech +3 vs Texas

I can’t make heads or tails of Texas. I picked them two weeks ago and they lost, then I went against them last week and they won; what a bunch of assholes. I should probably stay away from them, but like a bad relationship, I just can’t let go of them. Having said all of that, I love a home underdog so I’m going with the Red Raiders. They’re both 4-4, so it’s pretty much a tossup, but give me the home team.


Auburn vs Vanderbilt OVER 44.5 : Lock of The Week

college football week 10 gamblers bets

Vanderbilt may suck, but Auburn does not, and they could hit them over by themselves. They’re feeling all good about themselves being ranked in the top ten this week, so I think they’re going to feed off the home crowd and put up at least 40 points. If need be Vanderbilt may throw us a bone and score a touchdown or two. This is an awfully low point total so it could be a trap, but only Communists bet on the under, and last time I checked this was America. War Eagle/whatever Vanderbilt’s chant is.

If you don’t like any of those picks, which would be stupid because they’re all winners, I also like Texas A&M -13 @ Mississippi State, but I’m not counting that one towards my record. The quest for an undefeated week continues, so what better time to hit it than the first weekend in November (mine, Ryan Gosling, Leo DiCaprio, and Matthew McConaughey’s birthday month no big deal or anything). Let it ride.

Record on the Year (started in Week 7): 8-7

Locks of the Week: 2-1


What The Hell Is A Supermoon And Why Should You Care?

What is a Supermoon?

The wait for the supermoon is almost over! If you are anything like me and missed the last astronomical event, then you won’t want to miss this one. By now you are probably asking yourself, ‘Well what is a supermoon, anyway?’ Well, I can guarantee you this is no Marvel comic, and unfortunately, there are no superpowers waiting to axle towards us, but what I can tell you is that this considerably sized moon is solely based on science and astrology. Basically, when a new or full moon closely approaches Perigee, which is the point at which the Moon is closest in its orbit to the Earth, the lunar perigee with the Sun and the Earth align. Approximately, this causes a supermoon to be in effect every 14th full moon. Pretty sweet, huh? Even though these recurring appearances have no set expiration date, it’s recorded that this is the closest supermoon since January 26, 1948! It’ll be another 18 years until the moon even comes this close to Earth again, so you definitely want to be sure NOT to miss this one.

The November Supermoon Date & Time Details:

The Supermoon is set for the early hours of Monday morning, November 14, 2016. It is going to begin at 8:52 A.M., EST, it must be seen live with your very own spectacles! Photo and video coverage do not do this beauty justice. Don’t believe me? See it for yourself!

LOS ANGELES, CA - SEPTEMBER 27: An eclipsed supermoon is shown on September 27, 2015 in Los Angeles, California.

Anywhere, as long as you wake up for it, you are golden! Just make sure you are in plain view of the brightest and largest supermoon in 68 years! Sidenote: make sure you are not near the horizon, because due to a perceptional phenomenon, the Moon always looks unnaturally larger from that standpoint.

Best Nintendo 3DS Games

While Nintendo fans may be in low spirits about the Wii-U ceasing production, the Nintendo 3DS library is sure to offer plenty comfort for November. Look forward to an updated Mario Party where turns happen simultaneously, an online multiplayer zombie survivor and a side-scrolling fighter featuring famous cartoons. If none of these tickle your fancy then there’s always the most pre-ordered game in Nintendo History that is Pokemon Sun and Moon.

No time to waste. Have a look at the best Nintendo games coming soon in November!


5. Ice Station Z

Publisher: Wobbly Tooth
Developer:  Wobbly Tooth
Release date: November 3

For fans of the zombie survival  and survival challenges in general. This digital 3DS exclusive pits players in an open world setting against zombies while keeping that health and stamina bar in good standing. Ice Station Z features multiplayer up to eight per game for both online and local play.  Similar to the PC hit H1Z1, players scavenge through a barren area in search of supplies, protection, and allies they can hopefully trust.

Animation fans, rejoice! The time to play as Uncle Grandpa at your easiest convenience will be available soon. Since the success of Super Smash Bros. other genre-specific action games have been released. This time it’s characters from the Cartoon Network channel and it’s a bit different than the Smash Bros. formula.

The roster includes characters from animated shows like Adventure Time, Amazing World of Gumball, Steven Universe and more.

3. Harvest Moon Skytree Village


Publisher: Natsume
Developer: Natsume
Release date: November 8

Time to learn a little gaming history. The original Harvest Moon series has actually been going under a new name, Story of Seasons, since 2013. Harvest Moon Skytree Village is a brand new farming game under a recognizable name. You might be skeptical at the sound of that, but it’s just an interesting gaming fact worth sharing, especially if you’ve been a fan of previously known Harvest Moon games in the past. Regardless of this change, Harvest Moon Skytree Village is nothing short of adorable, a keystone standard for any farming simulation game.

2. Mario Party Star Rush


Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Nintendo
Release date: November 4

There’s some tension tied to the nostalgia of the Mario Party series. Memories of stolen stars and swapped coins, other kinds of needlessly random shenanigans… Yet, along with those past frustrations, there also exists an addiction. Mario Party, as hellish as it is, never stops being fun in its own weird way. With features like player recruitment and simultaneous turns, Mario Party Star Rush may entice players to roll the dice once more.

1. Pokemon Sun & Moon


Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: GameFreak
Release date: November 18

Never before has a Pokemon game been so widely advertised and discussed on social media. Disregarding remakes and expansion releases, Pokemon Sun & Moon will be the eighth Pokemon game to be released. For the past few months, GameFreak has been releasing videos on what to expect and they continue to do so as of last week. For players who want to stay surprised like when they first saw Charmeleon evolve, it’s best to stay clear from…Well, the internet. Good luck.

Sure, ‘Batman v. Superman’ Sucked, But This New ‘Wonder Woman’ Trailer Looks F*cking Dank

Warner Bros. Pictures

“It is our sacred duty to defend the world, and it’s what I’m going to do,” says Wonder Woman in the new trailer for her very first appearance on the silver screen. The trailer is jammed packed with epic fight scenes, stunning beauty, explosions, and music that really set the mood for heart-stopping action. The film is set right smack in the middle of World War I, and Wonder Woman and her sidekick in this film Steve Trevor (played by Chris Pine) will look to find a way to end “the great war” and save innocent lives. It has been 75 years since Wonder Woman first appeared in comic books (All-Star Comics #8, 1941), and early this June, this former amazon champion will finally make her way to the big screen. Let’s hope that Wonder Woman can do better than the critically disappointing Suicide Squad and Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Speaking of Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice, in this trailer we find out the history of a photo seen in that film. Gal Godot appeared in this film as Wonder Woman and kicked some serious tail.

Getting back to the topic at hand: This is the first full Wonder Women trailer since July when the San Diego Comic Con released an over two-minute action-packed preview of the film. To get right to that trailer, you can click right here. On Tuesday, the star of the film Gal Gadot released a teaser for the film on her Instagram account.

Wonder Woman officially makes her way to the big screen on June 2, 2017. Other cast members include Lucy Davis as Etta Candy, Robin Wright as Antiope, and Connie Nielsen as Hippolyta. Let’s get ready for another potentially awesome superhero movie, people!

But what can we expect of Wonder Woman? Gal Gadot spoke with Entertainment Weekly in July and discussed her thoughts on the character, “I feel like Diana is really accessible. It’s very easy to relate to her. She has the heart of a human so she can be emotional, she’s curious, she’s compassionate, she loves people. And then she has the powers of a goddess. She’s all for good, she fights for good, she believes in great. I want to be her. And in Wonder Woman, she has this naiveté in her. It isn’t stupid, it’s magical. I would want to be naïve like that again.”

That’s enough yapping (and typing) on my part: look below to see the trailer that you’ve been waiting for:

Penn State University Trump Supporters Build A Wall On Campus Around Flag

PSU Trump Wall

In less than a week, a very memorable election will take place. Being a college student, I should probably know more about politics than I am admitting, considering the winner of this presidential election will be leading our country by the time I graduate college. But… I am going to continue to be a naïve, clueless, and oblivious 20-year-old.

Penn State students are extremely verbal in their political views, and if you’ve walked past Old Main in the last 24 hours, no, you are not hallucinating. Students for Trump (an organization on campus), a group that has around 250 members, built a four-foot wooden wall around the American flag on Penn State’s Old Main lawn, as well as propped up Trump signs, inviting other students to discuss the election. It was built to symbolize protecting the United States. However, there is apparently a bigger meaning and “discrete” significance behind the wall that they have built.

Students for Trump built the wall to show that a real wall would protect America from the outside, however, there is a small opening in the wall that symbolizes how America would still invite people to come inside, but only legally. Hence “no bad hombres.” The students in this organization are trying to promote open dialogue about the election, the wall, and other controversial policies. This is a great idea because the current world of people being judged and receiving hostile feedback every time they say who they are voting for, no matter which candidate, needs to come to an end.

Safe to say this election has made people go a little nuts. But hey, what’s a “politic” again?

Teresa Palmer is a 30-year-old actress and model from Adelaide, South Australia. She made her on-screen debut as one of the Pool Party People in 2005’s Wolf Creek, but she really made her mark for the first time as Melody in 2006’s 2:37. Teresa starred in the drama and received rave reviews for her performance, as she was nominated for the Australian Film Institute Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role.

From then on, Teresa has been a constant and welcome presence on the silver screen. Some of her most notable roles include Violet Nottingham in Bedtime Stories (2008), Becky Barnes in The Scorer’s Apprentice (2010), Number Six in I Am Number Four (2011), Julie Grigio in Warm Bodies (2013), Samsara in Point Break (2015), and Gabby Holland in The Choice (2016).

Teresa’s most recent film has been her biggest success to date, as Lights Out (2016) came out of nowhere to be a monster hit. Teresa starred as Rebecca in the horror movie that thrilled both audiences and critics alike. Despite only having a budget of $4.9 million, Lights Out made $148 million at the box office. It also is currently sporting a terrific 77% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Teresa’s next movie to hit theaters will be Hacksaw Ridge. She plays Dorothy Schutte in the Mel Gibson-directed World War II biographical film. The early reviews have been very positive, and Hacksaw Ridge will be at a theater nearest you on Friday, November 4.

In celebration of Teresa’s upcoming film, let’s take a look at some of her hottest photos. Even a scary-ass blind man would be able to enjoy these pictures.

The Trailer For Trainspotting 2 Is Out And It Looks Every Bit As Bonkers As The Original

TriStar Pictures

The lads from Danny Boyle’s 1996 drug-endued black comedy are back for T2: Trainspotting. The original film was noted for its heroin use and abuse, but in this trailer, they mention an unknown substance made inside someone’s kitchen. Looks like the boys are cooking up more trouble!

The original cast is reuniting after two decades to pick up with the same hilarious and dramatic madness which made the first film such a cult hit.   Ewan McGregor, Ewen Bremner, Jonny Lee Miller, and Robert Carlyle are all returning to the fold, back to Scotland for more self-destruction, danger, drugs, sex, and regret.

“Choose life. Choose FaceBook, Instagram, Twitter, and hope that someone, somewhere cares,” says the narrative voice of Ewan McGregor’s character, Mark “Rent Boy” Renton, as the film’s famous, trademark song “Born Slippy” by Underworld plays for all to hear. Mark has returned home and falls back in with the crowd that made the first film appear so lively. He’s back with Spud (Bremner), Sickboy (Miller), and Begbie (Carlyle), and we can only guess the craziness that results from this wild combination. It looks like that mad-hatter Begbie is back in action! Look out, folks!

This film is sure to be filled with thrills, drama, laughs, and chaos. But did you know that all this madness originally came from a book? T2: Trainspotting is based on Irvine Welsh’s novel Porno, which is a sequel to his first book Trainspotting, which was also the title of the first film. This wouldn’t be the first time something crazy came from a book. But this is good crazy. I like it!

T2: Trainspotting will be initially theatrically released in the United Kingdom in a couple of months, specifically January 27th, 2017. And we won’t be able to see this film in theaters in the United States until at least February 3.

But that’s enough yip-yap from me. I’ll post the trailer for this film below. And watch all the madness as it ensues. Now, it’s time for some T2: Trainspotting.


Kanye & Kim Finally Do Something For Someone Else, Take Alton Sterling’s Son Out For His 16th Birthday

You may remember the crying and heartbreakingly sad face of Cameron Sterling back in July, when he spoke during a press conference regarding his father Alton Sterling, who was slain by police. On July 5, 2016, Cameron’s father was shot several times while being pressed on the ground by officers. This incident sparked tears in the eyes of then 15-year-old Cameron and left the young boy forever without a father.

But for his 16th birthday, Cameron was all smiles in a photo op with Kayne West and Kim Kardashian. The young Sterling attended Kanye’s Saint Pablo tour in Los Angeles on Wednesday and was somehow able to find the world-famous couple. “Shoutout to @kanyewest & @KimKardashian for showing 16th bday love last night to my client #CameronSterling, eldest son of #AltonSterling” was a message shared by attorney Justin Bamberg on Twitter in regards to his client’s interaction with the super famous celebrities.

We don’t know how this photo came about, but that doesn’t really matter. What matters is that Cameron is able to find some happiness after such a tragic event. And since the shooting occurred, many celebrities and members of the public came out to the side of this young man, who just wanted to see his father again. Besides the Wests, another famous person would come to Cameron’s aid in the form of HBO’s Issa Rae, who started a GoFundMe account for then 15-year-old as a way to raise money for him to go to college. The goal was to reach $200,000. But now, donations have far exceeded the initial goal, as the money raised on the account currently sits at $714,413.

It’s good to see this young man looking happy and enjoying himself next to two of the biggest celebrities out there. Time heals all wounds, as the saying goes. And having a good time on your birthday must make that process all the more easier (at least for the moment). But something as small as a photograph with just the right people can make a world of a difference.

The Buccaneers (3-4) host the Falcons (5-3) tonight on “Thursday Night Football” in a rematch of Week 1. The Bucs won that game, 31-24.

Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston is currently enduring somewhat of a sophomore slump. He had a four-interception game against the Cardinals in Week 2, and a three-game stretch of four touchdowns against seven interceptions and two lost fumbles, which saw the Bucs go 0-3.

As for the Falcons, they are currently boasting the NFL’s highest scoring offense, thanks to a career year from quarterback Matt Ryan. In eight starts this season, completing a career-high 69% of his throws for a career-high 9.4 yards per attempt.

Project Scorpio is still a codename for this brand new Xbox console and the projected release period is sometime around the holiday season 2017. Until then, it’s all about analyzing images and reading between the lines. Here are a few takeaways worth knowing.


1. It’s backwards compatible with most Xbox 360 games and all Xbox One games and accessories.

This recent news is great for fans of Red Dead Redemption and Halo 3, although the details of exactly how this backwards compatible feature will work are something of a mystery. Currently, backwards compatibility for Xbox 360 games on the Xbox One is a free feature but does, however, require both a Xbox 360 console and HDMI cable. This could mean that backwards compatible from 360 to Scorpio could require more materials.


2. It is virtual reality compatible.

This puts Microsoft in big competition with Sony, and for good reason. Sony already has a VR headset out on the market and it’s pulling in sales. With the help of VR titles like Fallout 4 VR , Project Scorpio is sure to bring in a lot of players.


3. It is catered toward 4K TV.

The head of Xbox, Phil Spencer, previously said that playing the next Xbox console on an HDTV “is not going to do anything for you.” He later changed his statement, saying  the combination may “run a little better.” There have been no official videos comparing specs and we look forward to seeing the differences. As of now this puts Project Scorpio’s console in more competition with the Ps4 Pro, which is stated to not be an essential for a 4K TV.


4. “6 Teraflops Of Power.”

This was mentioned repeatedly, so here’s some tech education so we can all stop thinking “that sounds pretty cool… but what does it mean?” A flop is defined as a unit of measured performance (or speed) for a machine. The tera part is a translation of  the word trillions. In the types of flops that exist, teraflop is ranked as the third fastest performance rate. While this may seem a little disappointing, teraflops is still an incredible rate and probably better off for the electric bill.


5. Fallout 4 Will Most Likely Be a Launch Day Title

The use of Fallout 4 in the promo video remains as the only verbally stated gaming title. It would be fairly safe to say that whenever Project Scorpio launches, so will Fallout 4 VR. It would also be reasonable to assume that certain new characteristics for Fallout 4 VR will be only accessible on Project Scorpio. A launch day lineup hasn’t been announced yet but it would be awkward not to see Fallout 4 VR on the list.

University of Oregon Law Professor Wears Blackface Halloween Costume To Party, Gives Worst Defense Ever

Nancy Shurtz Oregon Black Face

Nancy Shurtz is a University of Oregon law professor who decided to wear her a Halloween costume based on her favorite book, Black Man in a White Coat. It’s about, as you might have guessed from the title, a black man who is doctor. Nancy, in her infinite wisdom and multiple years of learning and teaching, decided to go to an off-campus Halloween party as the protagonist of this. In order to complete the costume and transformation, she put on blackface, an afro, and a lab coat.

That’s a photo of her Nancy in costume at the top of the article. And here’s another, more complete picture, of her at the Halloween party attended by OU professors, staff, and students.

oregon-blackface

This would be the most unbelievable story in the world–that a law professor at a prestigious state school would wear blackface–if it weren’t for the photographic proof. Making the story even more unbelievable is her excuse, which I almost find more offensive. As a law professor, you’d almost hope that her ability to defend herself would be phenomenal. Instead, she gave this frankly awful excuse.

I chose my costume based on a book that I read and liked—Black Man in a White Coat.  I thought I would be able to teach with this costume as well (or at least tell an interesting story). When I asked my daughter who is at Brown Medical School the demographics of her medical school class, she said “they do not give those statistics out mom”, but later when she asked the administration, they said there was _not one black male _student in the class. She and others were outraged. She was able to get the administration to assign a portion of this book (the one where the black medical student was thought to be the janitor) out to students.

I am sorry if it did not come off well.  I, of all people, would not want to offend [source].

First of all, if you close your eyes you can almost see the face of her daughter change from embarrassment for her mom to absolute horror as Nancy dragged her into this situation. Her daughter, Nancy, knows that blackface isn’t cool. But now she’s all of a sudden involved. Great job, mom.

Second, this defense makes zero sense. Nancy, are you saying that since you got everyone at your daughters’ school to realize that there were zero black students that you’re now able to educate people on race? Let’s hope not, because ask any person living in 2016 and they’ll tell you that blackface is a big no no.

As for the reactions of the community, you get one wild guess as to how the school is responding… They’re investigating the matter and Nancy has been placed on indefinite suspension. Here’s the University of Oregon’s statement.

The University of Oregon has been made aware that a faculty member of the School of Law wore a costume that included blackface at a private, off-campus Halloween party that was attended by UO faculty members and students.

We condemn this action unequivocally as anathema to the University of Oregon’s cherished values of racial diversity and inclusion. The use of blackface, even in jest at a Halloween party, is patently offensive and reinforces historically racist stereotypes. It was a stupid act and is in no way defensible [source].

And the black community at UO? They’re not happy about it. One letter calling for her resignation has been signed by 23 of her colleagues.

The Golden State Warriors will clash with the Oklahoma City Thunder tonight in the Warriors home turf. This will be their rematch from last year’s intense showdown in the Western Conference Finals playoff series, which resulted in a Golden State victory.  But now, the rosters has shifted somewhat, and Kevin Durant has joined the Warriors and will face his old team in Oklahoma City for the first time. Durant was apart of the Thunder for nine seasons, where he made six playoff appearances, and now, he’ll be gunning for his old squad.

The 2015 NBA World Champions are back in the hunt! On Tuesday, the Warriors crushed the Portland Trailblazers in a hard-fought contest, which ended 127-104. When people think of the Golden State Warriors, Stephen Curry is the usually the man that pops into your head. But Tuesdays fury came from the bench. From bench-warmer to a Tuesday night standout, Ian Clark became the first Warriors’ reserve to provide his team with at least eight field goals in one game without a missing once since January 18, 1996 against Milwaukee when Chris Mullin stepped up to the plate.  (I know, I just did a baseball metaphor in a basketball game).

But who will make it out on top in this one? Will it be the Thunder? This team from Oklahoma City sure has an ace up their sleeve in the form of Russell Westbrook, who is unprecedented player for this season, and has averaged more rebounds and points than any other guard in the NBA. This thunderous team has also just came off of a fresh victory against the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday in a very close contest, with a score of 85-83. The Oklahoma City team must be tired, and now has to compete in back-to-back games. Will the Warriors take advantage of this fact and conquer the Thunder? And how will you watch it all? Look below to find out how to watch this game live on your laptop, television screen, tablet or mobile device. Get ready for some Thunder vs. Warriors!
