You have been awarded 1 Power Point for fixing the embed code for Dead Pool video Nina Hagen and Don Rickles on "The merv Griffin show," 1985. Thank you for helping maintain VideoSift's reliability.

It's impressive, but legacy0100 is right, it's just basic operant conditioning. If you want a demonstration of the cognitive capabilities of a parrot, Alex is the place to start. Griffin is even more amazing.

Comparative cognition is really fascinating.

Lois Griffin got my attention

Blake Griffin's entire career is based on getting away with offensive fouls (and making horrible Kia commercials). If the roles were reversed that would have been a foul on Gasol.

Not the first time Griffin has used another player for lift/hangtime. Wish he played for Portland, although the arrival of J.J. Hickson gives me hope.

That said, Andrew Bynum's reaction (0:49, lower right corner) truly is priceless.

Thanks for pointing that out. Hilarious.

It should be, yes. But it's somewhat comparable to pullying jerseys in football/soccer, isn't it? Rules say it's a foul/yellow card, yet you see it 50 times in every match without any calls. >> ^Duckman33:
You are not allowed to push off with your free arm to create space, which he clearly did (or was trying to do), while elbowing him in the face. Both of which should be a foul no matter where you are on the court.

>> ^radx:

See that semi-circle/arc on the floor below the basket? Any defender within that area cannot draw an offensive foul. So elbowing Gasol in the face is within the rules, as long as it's somewhat unintentional. >> ^deathcow:
so, admittingly knowing sh#t-all about sports, is that ok what he did

Maybe Jordan is paying him respect, maybe he's annoyed about the push Griffin gave Gasol on the way down -- add the stare-down and Griffin is rather lucky he wasn't called for a technical foul.

That said, Andrew Bynum's reaction (0:49, lower right corner) truly is priceless.

I think its more of a pumped up acknowledgment that he is a bad-ass mofo dunking machine(it's the new high five or butt slap)!
>> ^deathcow:

it seemed to piss off his own teammate?

Wilfred isn't MacFarlane's creation... But I haven't seen it so couldn't say if this is a rip-off or not. The idea of childhood toys coming to life isn't new... perhaps the trash-talking, dope-smoking, womanizing childhood toy come-to-life is.. but I can't be certain.>> ^Sagemind:
Well, since this move is made by Seth MacFarlane, I think he's allowed to rip off his own creations.
>> ^phyman:
WTF?! How is this not a blatant rip off of Wilfred w/ Peter Griffin's voice?




not to mention wilfred is a dog, not a childhood toy, that is only a human to elijah wood's character and also this movie isn't a wilfred rip-off.
