Did anyone see this? Kid from Sandy, Utah and a US ski team prospect dies in an avalanche in the Austrian Alps. sad.

The other 4 skied out of the slide. That is one way to cut down the team members.

Filipino divers fare really poorly in Asian Games competition. Apparently there is little national support for a dive team so they sent these two guys that had never competed at this level previously.

The results are amazing. Think Cool Runnings but without any feelgood ending to the story.

No feelgood ending? Heck- they're in Singapore and probably get their hotel and flight paid for! I call that a win. I like how they exchanged a five after each of the terrible dives. And the audience reacting out of sheer polite protocol applauding the unanimous 0.0 score. Also of note, the first diver's back is visibly scarlet while he's chilling in the hot tub.

Your line is both hilarious and perfectly sums up the video. That was a great, I think my favorite moments were the sad high fives between teammates at about :27 and 1:05.

I liked the multiple replays showing the dives from various angles, just so we don't miss anything.

This might be a brilliant plan to develop support for a national dive team via shame.

[Clark Addison]

That is the most awesome video I have seen in a while. Hard to pick my favorite part, but it may be the part where the second guy, in a display of hope that we can all learn from, optimistically raised his arms above his head to break the water, just as he slapped into the pool feet first.

I imagine him thinking at that moment "The water is so smooth that it looks like the ceiling!"

Some websites are calling these two the Splash Brothers

Judging from the end of that video clip, if the Philippines ever gets on board with a national diving program, lesson one might be "proper and improper use of towels"

White girls only?

ex-NBA ref Tim Donaghy had to join a white supremacist gang in prison to avoid additional beatings and attacks. in what comes as a bit of a surprise, his initiation only required him to shave his head. lol, ok Tim, sure.

"I was a target. There was a guy who took a paint roller extension pole and blasted me in the knee a few times," Donaghy tells TMZ Sports. "I had to have surgery to relieve the pain when I got out of prison."The Donaghy says after the attack, he needed to find protection if he was going to survive his stint ... so he started to hang out with the only group that offered to have his back.
"Whites run together, blacks run together, Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, Italians."
Donaghy says the white gang wanted to initiate him with a prison tattoo -- involving a pin and ink from a pen -- but he managed to talk the guys into "option #2" ... a shaved head.

That was a great match. First and second set in particular were incredible.

Can't get enough of Mexican soccer or Filipino diving, eh?

Usain Bolt, fastest man in the world, run over by man on Segway

Nothing can stop Usain Bolt, except perhaps a cameraman who loses control of a Segway.
The Jamaican sprinter had just cruised to victory in the 200 meters at the world championships in Beijing, when a cameraman following him on his victory lap lost control and plowed the track star from behind.
