NBA Testing Smart Basketballs for 2027 Season

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver

Say what now?

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver reveals the league may introduce “smart basketballs” with embedded microchips as early as 2027.

The goal is to help officials make faster, more accurate calls.

Now this could change basketball in a major way however I don’t know if it’s for the better or not.

The technology could potentially help call games in real time and help determine factors such as exactly when the ball left a player’s hand, whether it crossed the three-point line, or whether a shot beat the buzzer. Just to list a few.

So although the idea of smart basketballs with embedded microchips could make the game more accurate, but it also raises real concerns about how much technology should control the sport. As a sports fan, I’m not sold on it.

Kentucky Doctor Forgets Grandchild in Hot Car For 8 Hours Resulting in Her Death

I was just watching the documentary, Fatal Distraction the 2020 documentary film that explores the high-profile 2014 hot-car death of 22-month-old Cooper Harris and the subsequent murder trial of his father, Justin Ross Harris, in Atlanta, Georgia.

I’ll admit, I watched the documentary while judging the parents because I just couldn’t understand how you could forget your child in the backseat.

In all fairness, after hearing this story, I can see how something like this could happen to a doctor because of their busy schedules. Either way it’s still a sad tragedy. I can’t imagine how devastated the grandmother is especially given that she dedicates her entire life to saving lives.


A Kentucky family is grieving an unimaginable loss after 10-month-old Scottie Crowell died when she was reportedly forgotten inside a vehicle for nearly eight hours.

Scottie’s grandmother, Dr. Stacey Fazenbaker, picked her up Thursday morning and was supposed to take her to daycare before going to work in Madisonville. Scottie’s father later arrived at the daycare to pick her up—only to learn she had never been dropped off. He contacted his wife, who immediately called her mother. Dr. Fazenbaker reportedly received the call while at work and rushed outside with coworkers.

Former NFL Player Dies After 4 Day Cocaine Bender with Strippers

Josh Mauro

Hey hustlers,

Drugs are bad mmkay?

This story is another cautionary tale about partying way too much. A lot of people on social media are questioning the stripper’s account that they were “sleep” before finding Josh dead on the floor while others are applauding him for dying “doing what he wanted to do”.

My thing is, I love a good party but who wants to die on a cold hard floor strung out on coke and surrounded by people who are not your family or loved ones?

Seems like a cold way to go, but to each is own. RIP Josh.


Daily Mail — Tragic NFL star Josh Mauro had been snorting cocaine on a four-day bender before his death from an accidental overdose, according to a medical report.

The former New York Giants, Arizona Cardinals, and Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end died at the age of just 35 in April.

Now, a Phoenix Police Department case report reveals that he had been partying with several women – including a dancer – in the hours before his death.

It is reported that Mauro first met the dancer a week earlier, later inviting her, a friend and two other women to a gathering at his home in the early hours of April 23.

The woman told police that, while at Mauro’s property, the ex-NFL star and his friend began snorting cocaine, while ‘all of them’ drank tequila and listened to music.
