Until a whirlwind of NBA trades happened at the end of the week, it was another snoozer in the sports world.
But as always, there were those who impressed us and those who drove drunk in a Porsche with only three wheels.
And of course, one of our favorite couples won this week, basically for being awesome.
WINNER: Chris Paul
Pretty much every time a disgruntled superstar demands a trade, the fans turn against him.
Somehow, Chris Paul has avoided such scorn.
The NBA has bungled the Lakers-Hornet-Rockets trade so badly that the guy who wants to leave tiny New Orleans for Los Angeles comes out looking like the good guy.
WINNER: Albert Pujols
$254 million over 10 years.
He wins.
WINNER: Shaq and Hoopz!
Shaq is just weeks away from returning to the national spotlight with his gig on TNT.
Hoopz, his tiny fiance, performed admirably on Jimmy Kimmel this week when she gave him a piggy-back ride.
