Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport – Such a Good Look…Filthy!!!!

In the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport, a handful of buyers will get a rocket that gleams across the planet’s surface faster than any true production automobile that has come before.

More pics and a nasty nasty price tag after the jump…

Particulars include 1,001 horsepower, 16 cylinders, 8 liters of engine displacement, 4 turbochargers, all-wheel drive and a dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The removable-roof version of the Veyron coupe costs 1.4 million Euros, or roughly $2.1 million.

Bugatti’s main achievement is making a car that weighs nearly 4,400 pounds — about 1,100 more than a Corvette or Porsche 911 — accelerate and handle so well.

Overall, the car is so overqualified for public roads that even the ultra-rich who can afford to buy it would be better off with a more approachable sports car. At speeds that test the limits of more ordinary performance cars, the Bugatti feels bored. And when a car makes a Lamborghini seem tastefully understated, there’s a problem.

Stephen Wiltshire is Amazing, no seriously…Autistic and he Draws Landscapes, from MEMORY!!!

After just 20 minutes in a helicopter above the Manhattan skyline, autistic artist Stephen Wiltshire was ready to re-create a city that took hundreds of years to build. Wiltshire is drawing a 20-foot panoramic view of New York – all from memory. The 35-year-old artist’s autistic disorder affects his ability to interact with other people. It has also given him a photographic memory – and a gift for putting it on paper. “I just looked without drawing,” said Wiltshire as he explained how he is able to draw the skyline without referring back to a photograph of the city. “Everything is like a TV show,” he said. “I have never drawn from a sketchbook.”

New York is the last in a series of eight panoramas of major cities across the world, including Dubai and Tokyo.

Air Jordan x Michael Jordan Motorsports = AJ 6 Rings MJM Edition

A lot of folks don’t know how much of a motorcycle nut that Mike is. So much so, it had long been rumored that there was some sort of clause in his contract that allowed him to hop on a bike every now and then. Either way, here are some pics of the latest rendition of the Air Jordan Six Rings sneaker alongside one of the Michael Jordan Motorsports bikes.

Apparently these sneaks are extremely rare, like so rare that they were only made for members of the team and their families. How playa is that? Jealous much!!  Here is a look at not only the Air Jordan 6 Rings just, but also that sick Jordan-Suzuki American Superbike pictured here.

Manu Ginobili vs. A Bat, Manu Wins….decisively!!!

Late in the first period of the Spurs win over the Kings on Saturday a bat swooped into the AT&T Center and descended onto the court. Players scattered and officials stopped play. The bat circled and left only to return — briefly.

That’s when Ginobili performed his Halloween trick, swatting the bat out of the air with a bare hand. He then carried the creature off the court to thunderous cheers.

…but, as you would figure, no good deed goes unpunished. Peep Manu’s tweet after the jump…

I Shouldve Been a Rapper

I had to post this picture because this picture is hilarious!!! If you watch sportscenter you know that last night LeBron James and the Cavs visited Madison Square Garden to play the knicks, and of course a ton of celebs where in the house.

Look … love him or hate him, the dude is one of a kind crazy.  Is he really fishing through about 3k for a $1 tip?Look at that stack!!! good lord. Its like that one dolla bill doesn’t even match!

I have so many questions… What did he buy with that stack that left him with a single? Why isn’t there at least a 5 and a couple of 20s? What causes you to pull out the entire knot, when you know you have all 100s? I’m so curious about this whole situation

BTW, I like that Jumpman vest he is rockin… a couple more pics after

Kobe x Nike

New Jordans

New Jays are hot… there is a lot to these new sneaks so head over to Darren Rovell to read the full interview, here is a little about them:

The shoe was designed by Chicago native Jason Mayden, not the usual Tinker Hatfield. It features a chassis that’s meant to mimic blown glass, which means that each shoe is technically different in its pattern. The pleats in the shoe are really a nice touch. Shoe designers can learn from the simplicity of this, instead of the hodgepodge garbage we’ve seen of recent.

New Gatorade joint

This is the new Gatorade joint… it looks like they tried to go a little bit Nike in this new add. I’m feeling it… what are your thoughts?

X=38 years old today

Wow, X is 38 years old today… He has definitely had his trouble lately but he did bring us many bangers. If they had ipods when I was in high school this would definitely be on my pregame playlist. Lets hope this cat can get it together … Rough Riders Anthem after the jump:
