Former NBA player, Manute Bol, was mostly known for his outstanding height as the tallest player in NBA history (tied with Gheorghe Muresan). His heart, however, outgrew his 7′7″ frame. After leaving the NBA, Bol spent much of his money that he earned during his time in the NBA to help rebuild his native country Sudan. He also used his fame to start the Ring True Foundation, which helped Sudanese refugees. You may remember seeing him take down William “The Refridgerator” Perry on FOX’s Celebrity Boxing, but he also dabbled as a hockey player and a horse jockey - only for fund-raising purposes of couse. He died on Saturday due to a kidney disease.

With Halloween approaching, a slew of horror movies are being released. But you haven’t seen scary, chilling, frightning, horrific, or any other adjective you might see avertised on a movie trailer until you’ve seen “Sonicsgate.” The scariest thing about this movie is that it’s TRUE! Seattle-based filmmaker, Jason Reid, teamed up with a crew of angry Sonic fans to document the story of the rise & fall & theft of Seattle’s historical basketball franchise, the Seattle Supersonics. On a side note, I hope to see you in hell Clay Bennett, and Howard Schultz, your coffee ain’t all that…I mean I’ll drink it, but I’ll still hate you and think of you when I poop it out.

Looks like Supra’s working on the 2nd edition of last year’s Dunk. They’ve already used practically every color on the spectrum for the first model, but it looks like they’ve managed to keep things fresh with a new design and what looks to be a sleeker sillhouette while maintaining hints of the first Skytop (notice the back detail).
