Remember the time at the NBA pre-draft camp when Kevin Durant couldn’t bench press 185 lbs? Well now according to him and with a little help from the cameraman KD says he can put up 315 lbs.

Jay Cutler doesn’t think so! No not the Chicago Bears Jay Cutler…this Jay Cutler.

I have a cavity.

At least that’s what my “dentist” says. At this point, though, I’ve got questions about his diagnosis and his entire line of work.

Big ups to Jared Fogle for finishing the NYC Marathon in a respectable 5 hours and 13 minutes. He really came a long way from last December where he looked like he went off the Subway diet.

Check out the football team of Driscoll Middle School pulling off a trick play I have yet to see in my life.

We’re doing things a little bit differently this week.

Ordinarily, I sit and write these reviews with a paper copy of Sports Illustrated sitting right next to me at my desk. That way, I can leaf through and make sure I’m not forgetting any of the initial impressions I had while reading the magazine the first time through.

This week, though, we’re depending strictly on memory and the internet.

It may have something to do with me wanting to embrace the changing face of media delivery in the internet age. In a week when US News ans World Report announced it was transitioning towards a solely web-based existence, maybe it’s time for all of us to begin moving away from print copies and fully embracing the ease and convenience that comes from reading Sports Illustrated online, for free, every week.

But, I think it actually has a lot more to do with the fact that I’m pretty sure I left my copy of Sports Illustrated at the gym yesterday. I put it down when I was putting on my jacket and I must have forgotten to pick it back up.  Otherwise, there’s a Sports Illustrated bandit loose on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, who snatches only the current issue of the magazine while leaving last week’s behind.

So, from memory, here’s Sports Illustrated, November 8th, 2010.

Something any self respecting dad would do is to NOT whip out their junk and flash the camera in front of their daughter. I guess Hulk Hogan is not that kind of guy.

But on the bright side you do get the see the Hulkster rap the lyrics to some Notorious B.I.G.

Although it wasn’t as good as the Jersey Shore version, here is Matt Stone and Trey Parker’s take on the LeBron James’ “Rise” commercial.

Cartman’s line at the end pretty much summed it all up.

While Tiger and Lee look really excited…
