Here's the video of the elementary school version of Scarface.



Yes, it's fudging adorable!

Sadly, our friends at TMZ did some digging and found out that it isn't real. Disappointing? Yes. Does it mean you can't enjoy the stuffed tiger or the words "The World is Yours" pinned up above the stage? Of course not.

The Mobile, Alabama Leprechaun

It's St. Patrick's Day, so we have a special treat for you.

THE GREATEST VIDEO IN THE HISTORY OF THE INTERNET!


Salt & D's One Shining Moment Contest

Listen to this!



Nothing says "National Championship" like the sweet sounds of Teddy P. So, why is CBS ditching the classic version of "One Shining Moment" for something new?

We have no idea, but Salt & I figured since CBS is going to ruin the end of the Tournament anyway, we may as well give you a chance to be the culprit. This is your chance to re-record the classic "One Shining Moment."

Need some help? No worries. Click here to get the lyrics.

So what are we looking for exactly? Well, we have no idea. We want you to create your own, unique version of "One Shining Moment." You can play it on a guitar, piano, a kazoo - it doesn't matter! Hell, you can even throw on some tights and do a Shakespeare like dramatic reading. Just be sure to film it and upload it to You Tube or record it and send us the file. After you've created your masterpiece send it to us at mornings@96rockwebmail.com.

Don't let Teddy P down!


Give us your best effort. There is a kick ass mystery prize in it for you.

Is Rielle Hunter Hot?

Have you seen the photos of John Edwards' mistress from her recent GQ spread?

...And I do mean spread!

Don't look so shocked, Kermit. That pose is tame compared to what is going on in a certain video she made. Nice zebra panties, Rielle!

Our Favorite Twitter Feed EVER!

This is NC State Athletic Director Lee Fowler.



So who is Lee FOLWER? Well, we don't know. We do know that it doesn't matter if you love State or hate them. Everyone can enjoy this send up of the Pack's seemingly inept AD.

We like Billy Packer. He has always treated us with respect and been good to us and agreed to interviews even though we aren't a "serious show."



The interview that may have sent Andrew Young to jail...


We talked to Andrew and Cheri Young the day before they were held in contempt of court and Andrew could face up to 75 days in jail! Find out what they said that may not have helped their court case...

The Guy That Crashed Vanity Fair's Oscar Party

From Special Teams to the Dinner Special

Zack Follett is a maniac!

He is a special teams player for the Detroit Lions. The guy promised to make all 31 other NFL teams pay for not drafting him. Nevermind that the Lions passed on him 8 times before taking him in the 7th and final round of the 2008 NFL Draft.

He's not on the field much, but when he is...



He makes it count.

Now, why did he feel the need to get in a cage with real lions? Because he's a bad ass! Watch him taunt the lions with his helmet, get in the cage, give a motivational speech then nearly get attacked.




Never Let Blade Forget!

Did you miss my cameo on Foster & the Blade?



Never forget, Blade. Never forget! By the way, the long balls line is courtesy of Salt.

4 Chords - 36 Songs

My buddy Brian Hart turned me onto this video from a group called "The Axis of Awesome." You may not recognize some of the songs they highlight in this video, because they were bigger hits overseas than they were here. Nonetheless, this is a really cool little video.

Want to see a musical that was banned in Germany?!

...of course you do!!! I had the chance to sit down and talk with two members of the cast, Jake Epstein and Christy Altomare. They talked about making this sexually provocative musical and what is was like to have to whip one another on stage.



Head over to DPACNC.com for tickets. Two shows on Sat and two shows on Sun.

Costumes you never thought they could make sexy

I was looking at the internet and happened upon this particular costume. Who knew there could be a sexy Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle outside of April O'Neil...


We asked what cartoon would you like to see them make into a sexy costume for Halloween

Here are some of your answers...
Cheetara from the Thundercats, Smurfette from the Smurfs, and Lois Griffin from Family Guy
