Unions, negative... Magic, + (for the HIV)

Magic Johnson was one of the greatest NBA players of all time, he does countless hours of charity work and is very successful business man as well, owning condos, gyms and over 300 Starbucks…oh and apparently he hates the poor. Magic went into Brooklyn years ago and started buying it up and developing it into a more livable community, and in the process he stopped hiring and paying the people in the area that need work the most, all because they are unionized. He would rather pay other less skilled people less money and not pay them health care.
“…workers have to pay $360 a month for health care for each member of their family; they are also not offered pensions, job training and other benefits offered to union workers”

He's thin too...

Seems to me that magic might be the smartest business man on the planet and also the RALest, thinking that he’d rather keep the money he earns opposed to paying it out to his employees or funding their hospital bills.

“There is nothing magic about what he does. What he does is prey upon poor people.” (you see what they've done here, is make reference to his name, in a negative context- hhhhhhhhhhha!)

It’s hard to say whether or not Magic is an unethical business man, or this story just features the voices of some upset employees, but there is one thing we can all agree on, Magic Johnson has aids…

D. Rodman keeps it (a little too) RAL on Celeb Apprentice

I may as well come clean right off the bat and admit that I tuned into Celebrity Apprentice last night, fortunately for those out there that think that's lame, they haven't seen the aforementioned 6'8" NBA cross-dresser act as a team leader wearing <-- and getting LP'd (loser-pissed) on multiple vodka-cranberries (ordered while rubbing hands together and mumbling "another vodka cran up my ass please"- on national television) and assisting/accosting/...accompanying his hotel guests and dining with them at Tao while the likes of Clint Black, Jesse James, and some other black athlete sweat it out checking people in and out and whatnot. Dennis was good enough to show up day 2 and lay on the hotel couch (presumably very hungover) with his Ed Hardy Jacket thrown over his Ed Hardy hat and Ed Hardy sunglasses and wallow in his own shame while guests streamed past him. Long story short, his team almost won- largely on his customer service- but he was fired in front of both teams with about half the other contestants reminding him repeatedly that he has a drinking problem (he fought this with "I've won 5 NBA Championships" and something like "I'm easier to coach than M.J.") and with AA.org flashed on the screen along with the credits... maybe Rodman kept it a little too RAL... especially as his antics made others cry.

Living up to the stereotype…

Chris Bosh is a standup guy right? He did correspondence for Leno, won an Olympic gold and spends hours and hours doing charity work in Toronto, so he can’t be that bad…can he? Well apparently he might be as he is being sued for being a “deadbeat father who broke up with his girlfriend when she was seven months pregnant, leaving her destitute and without medical care even as she fell ill” Now I’m no fancy big city lawyer, I’m just a sex model by day and ass grabber by night, but can you even be tried as a ‘deadbeat father’? Is that a legal term? And why hasn’t every NBA player been sued on account of it?

I’m not really surprised that Bosh pulled the old ditch; she lives in a different country so it’s easier to do, she wasn’t that attractive, and one time she got into it with LeBron.

And if the NBA is anything like High school, which I am assuming it is as every player in the league is more focused on social networking at halftime then listening to their coach, Chris Bosh would be the tall ugly kid in the school constantly seeking acceptance from the cooler kids, which Lebron with lats like that, certainly is. And the first rule is of acceptance is rolling with the right crew, so a crazy girlfriend who yells at the most popular guy in school every time he walks by, in your defense, is the first person you have to get rid of. And what better way to get rid of a girl then by claiming she was sleeping around, it ruins both her reputation and her self esteem!

“The complaint, which contains allegations that have not been proven in court, says Bosh contested his paternity before genetic testing determined a 99.97 per cent probability that he is Trinity’s father.”

Ride 'em cowboy! Shoot first and ask questions later, right? Right?

Team Spain Keeps it RAL with the "squinty eye" move in China...

Doesn't Twitter Sounds like an STI? 'Yeah man I got that twitter, but the cream cleared that right up'

I don't really know what twitter is, but it seems like something reserved for 14-19 year old girls and shouldn’t be a priority for an NBA player to update at half time...Charlie Villanueva disagrees however, as he did just that during Sundays upset win over the Celtics, leaving a tweet (seriously? Who named this thing?) that read:

"In da locker room, snuck to post my twitt. We're playing the Celtics, tie ball game at da half. Coach wants more toughness. I gotta step up."

"ahh-drrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"

So not only is this grown man making sure that all his 12 year old fans know what he’s up to after he enters the tunnel at halftime, but he also confirmed he is black at the same time...also he doesn’t have eyebrows ( he has alopecia so he was already dealing with a short deck)

Philly fans - RALest in North America

As you can probably tell we at ikeepsitral we appreciate sports in a major way, one could even say that we are sports fans to the furthest extent. And seeing how this is the best time of year to be a sports fan, March Madness, end of NHL and NBA seasons, MLB starting up, WBC, we thought we'd tribute those that makes sports what they are....the fans!

Your shit is weak...

Some fans cheer for casually one team, others drift year to year and some of us live and die by the performances of their teams. This couldn't be more true then fans from Philadelphia. Philly fans are incredibly involved in all of their teams, selling out stadiums (supporting 4 franchises with a population of 1.4 million), purchasing merchandise and being known as some of the most vocal fans of all time.

They cheered when Michael Irvin had to be carried off in a stretcher due to a broken neck, they booed Santa, threw snowballs at children performing at half time, throw batteries at the opposition and most importantly boo their own teams when they aren't performing up to their standards. During one lull in their teams performances the citizens of Philadelphia sarcastically voted 'Rocky' as the best athlete in the history of the city...when he wasn't on the ballot, he had to be written in. It was widely known that Allen Iverson was the only player they wouldn't boo, until he was traded and is now booed mercilessly whenever he touches the ball. So for knowing what they want every year out of their teams (a championship) and voicing their displeasure when they don't receive, they achieve the status as RALest fans in North America.

Cheering erupted throughout the stadium with hopes Irvin wouldn't walk again

Oh yeah and they throw bottles as well...



Crack a bottle, let your body waddle...

NonRal play of the day

This play in the Cavs v. Suns game last night is the equivalent of finding that girl at the party who is just the right type of drunk where she'll much pretty go along with anything (if you know what I mean) (I'm talking sex for those who don't) but then taking far too long to find a bed and the girl falls asleep or sobers up enough to realize what's happening and she mace's you and runs away...



Should've taken the layup...haaaaa get it? Double entendre

RAL takedown

With the Lakers down 28 points in the fourth quarter, Trevor Ariza of the Los Angeles Lakers, took matters into his own hands and sent a message to the rest of the league that read "if we can't beat you, we're going to knock you the fuck out..."



Note: A more RAL man would have gotten up right away to show that he wasn't intimidated, but Rudy Fernandez needed a stretcher...so he is the 2nd NONRAL man of the day
