What a fun weekend it was in the world of sports! Here’s a look back at the weekend that was in the world of sports.

It seems like every time I turn on a Golden State game, Steph Curry drains a three that makes me look on in shock. Seriously, this guy has the ability to drain it from anywhere and this was the biggest one I’ve seen so far this season. It was also the exclamation point for what would become a rout over the Los Angeles Clippers.
College Hoops: Money Well Spent
All of UK's eight national title trophies on the floor as Michael Buffer introduces the Cats. Kinda big game. pic.twitter.com/oKhjyBwz72

With the SEC/Big 12 Challenge going on this Saturday, it was like a big game feel for most of them (LSU-Texas Tech notwithstanding). However, the biggest game of them all was Kentucky vs Kansas. Two teams in the top five taking each other on inside Rupp Arena. They wound up breaking an indoor arena record before the opening tip and having one of the best in the business Michael Buffer introducing the Wildcats. Reportedly, he received $25,000 for this appearance. Worth every penny if you ask me.
Lighter Side of Sports: Bieber Crushed

As a casual fan of the NHL, All-Star Weekend is always a fun thing to watch. This year was no exception with an awesome Skills Challenge. The biggest part for me that got excited was that Justin Bieber was checked into the boards by Chris Pronger. As a person who can’t stand the little dork (I could probably use other words), seeing him get rocked was amazing.
