Also, I don't know if this was a playoff game or not, but this is truly one of the most insane accident plays of all time.

Yep that's a playoff game from '72. Great play.

NBA sends memo to teams as reminder of anti-tampering rule

Lebron James is tipping the scales and pissing off a lot of the league with him trying to recruit talent to the Lakers. I wasn't aware of this 'anti-tampering rule' in the NBA. But basically its a broad based rule that says you can't mess with other player's contracts.

That means a lot of things, like going out and trying to recruit players under contract to another team mid season for example is very frowned upon, to the point that many small market GMs are complaining to the league and the NBA is going to make an example of somebody, so the problem stops.

Lebron James looks to be that somebody. I don't know if the league will actually fine him for his social media and interview antics, but maybe so.

Leads me to an interesting debate topic: Should players be fined for talking openly about trying to recruit other talent to their teams if those players are still under contract?

I don't know, man. That's a lot of social media policing in my opinion. I say just convince your talent that he is better off where he is, and let the chips fall where they may. Thoughts?

Do you think it really matters what a team is ranked in AP polling throughout the regular season, leading up to March Madness for college basketball?

I mean I know it matters as we get closer to the big dance for seeding purposes. I just think there's so much turnover with the top 25 throughout the season (typically anyways) that I really don't pay much attention to it, even though every time I'm on ESPN that seems all they want to talk about.

Its not like college football where seeding determines playoffs and bowl selections. 64 teams make it. So really, why the big focus?

I think if its just one or two sitting out, its not smart. But the more that do it, the smarter it is.

Updated list of players skipping bowl season for NFL Draft

There's at least 16 players just from this list alone. I think I would. You have such a small window, and if you are that good why risk getting hurt for a game that won't matter in the long run. It only makes sense if you need to pad your resume for scouts.

I think Conor will win this fight. I don't think he deserves to, but I think he'll win. He's just proven himself too many times. And I don't think Khabib has what it takes to knock or tap Conor out. What do you think?
