For your pleasure, I have scoured the internet and put together a top 5 unlike any other. The following men have two things in common.
One, they have incomparable skill at their respective sports. I'm talking things that would drive the average person crazy because even if you practiced everyday, you would have half their talent.
And two, they actually look like they are having fun doing it. Contrary to popular belief, you can still have fun while playing a sport even if you don't win.
Don't be fooled, although all of these athletes make it look easy, even a caveman couldn't do it.
5) Wiffleball Pitcher, unknown name
No mercy for the fat guy. Sad, but hilarious. Not that I or anyone else could hit those lightning-speed crazy-moving pitches. Since he has no given name in the video description there is only one solution. He's a freak wiffleball playing alien.
4) Football, Johnny Mac
I like the one where he throws the football really far and hits exactly where he meant to.
That guy holding the program at the beginning had to of hurt his hand.
3) Soccer, Jeremy Lynch
Balancing a round object (soccer ball) on another round object (human head) is never easy. Or even fun to attempt. Go ahead, get a soccer ball and stabalize it on your head for more than 3 seconds.
2) Tennis, Mansour Bahrami
Try to watch that video without smiling. Actually don't waste your time. I would pay more money to watch him play a comedic match than I would to watch the final at Wimbledon. Like $25 max though, because I'm broke.
1) Basketball, The Harlem Globetrotters
The original sports comedy act. Dating as far back as 1927, the Globetrotters attract talented ball handlers who can make any crowd laugh and completely forget the overall score of a game.
There are many great clips of the Globetrotters so please feel free to watch more in addition to the following:
I'm still waiting for them to call me. Apparently they're not in the market for a 5'9" white kid.

The Charlotte Bobcats Name Game
Sure there are plenty of post-draft analysis out there but they all basically say the same thing. Not here. The Charlotte Bobcats had the best draft in 2011. Because even if you didn't draft an immediate allstar, you can't go wrong with someone named Bismack Biyombo.
Bismack Biyombo: I'm honestly jealous of this name. And having a 7'7" wingspan doesn't hurt either. My proposed nickname: "Otto Von" Bismack Biyombo inspired by the man pictured below.

Nice helmet.
And watch out for the Maverick's 27th pick in the 2nd round, his last name rhymin' archnemesis, Targuy Ngombo.
Their 9th pick in this draft was Kemba Walker: Not comparable in overall name awesomeness as Biyombo but you cannot overlook who his name rhymes with.
Unfortunately I can't take credit for the following picture:
Oh, and he won a national championship. Team owner Michael Jordan did a great job on this draft. Now MJ just needs to be convinced to hold him up like that before the first game and maybe put some paint across his forehead...
And I'd like to say sorry to the Bobcat's 39th overall pick Jeremy Tyler. The only unique thing about your name is that you have two first names.
I'll give him another double first named man ending in Tyler:
