No? Come on, there’s got to be some way to make this relev—oh screw it, this has nothing to do with sports, but since it’s quite likely that it’s sparked a massive decrease in productivity in offices all across the country (including ours), here’s the link to video of the Colorado boy who’s flying, by himself, in a wayward hot air balloon. Wow, that sentence is pretty crazy, huh?
If you’ve never seen the movie Up, don’t bother, this is the plot, playing out in real life. Also, the boy’s name is “Falcon,” which seems pretty appropriate. Jokes aside, let’s hope this gets resolved quickly and the boy’s okay. And for the record, the internet just one-upped itself.

is parenting a sport?
If so, in ignorant accordance to the stereotype of white athletes, i feel for my Caucasian parents. More so, i feel for the kids. It’s all in the game but really it isnt a game. To most of the most ‘ballinest’ athletes out today their sport isn’t just a game its more than that. Apply the same ethic to raising your kid because to quote the great white shark rapper Eminem “apparently you ain’t parents”. I mean naming your kid falcon and sending the dude on a solo mission in a hot air ballon. This trumps that leprechaun story that spread like wild fire to make black folks look crazy… RIP Falcon
