Play of the Week...and Blooper of the Week

This weeks Play of the Week takes us to a Division II baseball game in Tennessee, where the pick-off move was taken to a whole new level.  The pitcher pretended to throw the ball to 2nd base to pick of the runner, when he in fact kept the ball in his glove.  With great acting from the shortstop, 2nd baseman, and the pitcher, then runner took off to 3rd, where he was easily thrown out.  Here's the video:

This weeks Blooper of the Week comes to us courtesy of Baylor Forward Quincy Acy, as he attempts to write a paper for one of his classes.  When realizing that he can't spell, and when spell check doesn't have answers, Acy decided to take his issues to Twitter and ask the entire world for help.  Here is his Tweet:

We'll give Acy some credit though, at least he is still in school and going to class...that's a lot more than some college athletes can say.

Blooper of the Week...

It isn't the end of the week, so this blooper may be a bit premature, but we couldn't pass up the opportunity to call this play the blooper of the week...

Celtics player Von Wafer perhaps made one of the classic NBA bloopers on Monday night.  With about 3:00 minutes to play in OT against the Wizards, Wafer went up for what he thought was a monster jam.  He followed up the "dunk" by taunting the crowd and then turning and running into teammate Jermaine O'Neal.  The only problem...was the fact that Wafer missed the dunk...He also didn't help his cause when he ran into Jermaine O'Neal, because O'Neal had the offensive rebound, and was looking to put it back up for a shot.  Unfortunately for Wafer, the ultimate blooper didn't end with the dunk, as the refs called double-dribble on O'Neal due to the hitch in his dribble after being run into.

This weeks blooper comes from Philadelphia, courtesy of the Phillie Phanatic, the Phillies world famous green mascot.  He decided to go all-Lady Gaga in a recent game against the Astros, as he hatched from a giant egg and pranced around the field, taunting Astros players between innings.

Our blooper of the week for this final week of March, comes to us from the world of soccer.  I guess the moral of the story is watch where you're running, and don't jog behind soccer nets.
