I thought this was a funny link from the Onion.

LONDON—In a stunning revelation, small forward LeBron James humbly conceded Tuesday that the current U.S. Olympic basketball team lacked the athleticism and talent to defeat the 2012 Miami Heat. "Team USA is solid, and we have some pretty good guys, like Kobe, Durant, and James, but there's no way we could possibly compete with James, Wade, Chalmers, Battier, and Bosh," said James, adding that the 2012 Miami Heat was loaded with too many superstars. "If we relied on LeBron, it might not be a blowout, I suppose. Still, the 2012 Miami Heat squad is the best of the best." James, who told reporters the U.S. basketball team had a coaching advantage over the Heat, struggled for several minutes trying to recall the name of Miami’s "**** coach."

Don't know if I agree with LeBron on this one. LeBron has been a beast as of late.

Not funny at all. I especially did not like that shot at Spo who I think is among top 5 in the league.

Hate to pile on, but yeah while I was reading that all I could think of was what a waste of time it was for the writer. Just not funny.
