Week In Review - June 23, 2012

President Obama showed leadership and heart this week by issuing an executive order that protects young illegal immigrants, those who were brought into the U.S. as children, from the threat of deportation. Mitt Romney attempted to rebut the President’s decision, but then remembered he is incapable of taking specific policy positions on sensitive issues.

In sports, we watched clips of "bad boys" in various sports showing their underwear, injuring officials, and elbowing opponents in the head, and then compared the fines and penalties levied against them. Oscar-nominated actor Gary Oldman weighed in on celebrity sports figures with a hilarious video rant against the athlete-turned-actor trend.

We relished ESPN’s upcoming coverage of Wimbledon, and offered NBC a sympathetic middle finger for losing the contract. We featured some unique casual photos of top Wimbledon hopefuls, and shared links to both the Gentlemen’s and Ladies Wimbledon draws.

In pop culture, we explored the science of Slinky by watching what happens when the toy is dropped from a multi story building. Lastly, we laughed and empathized with a clever musical plea to Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin to hurry up and write, and we celebrated Paul McCartney's 70th birthday by listing the "top 10 reasons" to watch the Silly Love Songs video.

As always, thanks for reading.
