An Actual Video Of 6-Foot-7, 410-Pound Motekiai Langi Playing "Football"
Yesterday I wrote that there was no video available of BYU’s newest recruit, Motekiai Langi, from the island nation of Tonga.

Orval Is The Funky, Monk-Brewed Belgian Beer You Need In Your Life
You may be aware that the Super Bowl was this past Sunday.

The Hong Kong shoot-'em-up is a venerated cinematic genre, one that blew a whole lot of minds and changed the way all movies look, but it really had a pretty short shelf life.
