8:15 PM KRTV has the story of Clancy Ludvigson, a Montana high school wrestler who let disabled opponent Troy Spurlockpin him in an exhibition match to give Spurlock his first career non-forfeit victory.
Viral video of LeBron James making a full court football shot:
I want to believe that’s real, but because of the relentless marketing undertaken by James’ reps, I think the make is as fake as Al Michaels‘ new-found mound.

this is more believable than some of the other crap out there. Besides, who knows how many takes they did, or how long it took him to make that shot. It isn’t too far, esp for an athlete like LeBron who readily admits to liking/playing football. I love Shaq’s fail at a spiral
It’s real. And actually not that hard of a throw, it takes a lot of luck and little accuracy. All you need to do is be able throw it 25 yds.
Now if you’re trying to tell me it’s the first take? Bogus. The individuals on the other end of the court would have had a bigger reaction. Instead they’re just plants intent on being LeBron’s go-fer.
This is definitely real. 3-4 kids on my football team in HS could hit this with some regularity. Like Johnny Utah said, if you can throw a ball 25 yards with some accuracy this shot is no where near impossible to make.
Back in high school my friends and I used to make this shot all the time during the lunch hour. Our record was 11 in a row, then the bell rang. After it became boring we moved to the far corner of the gym to add some distance. We sure got the football coaches attention when he saw six guys who didn’t play football shooting hoops with a football from the far corner and making nearly every one of them.

Damn this chick is skanky too. Tiger can do way better.
Wait, not a Tiger story?

I guess that video is now as disappointing as the infamous Nike vid!
