MMA journalist takes a pic of Miesha Tate's backside at UFC 149?

During the UFC 149 post-fight press conference Saturday night in Calgary, MMA fans watching the video feed online noticed a MMA media member taking a picture of what appears to be Miesha Tate's backside.
MMA fans were praising Tate's glutes all night long on Twitter when they saw her cornering her boyfriend Bryan Caraway in his fight on the prelims which was broadcasted on FX.
It's one thing for fans to admire the former Strikeforce champion's backside but it is clearly inappropriate for a credentialed member of the media to try to take a pic of Tate's anatomy when she is not looking.
I have covered many Strikeforce shows in the past and I have seen unprofessional behavior by credentialed media members quite often. I have seen media members drink alcohol at press row and cheer on their favorite fighters.
Take a look for yourself to see if you think the journalist took a picture of Tate's backside or not. The GIF is below and the video is as well.
The accused media member writes for a website called MMASucka.com and has denied taking the picture of Tate's behind. The writer also stated on a popular MMA forum that he has reached out to Tate to apologize and that he apologizes for his brief lapse of judgment.

The good news for Williams and the Tiger-Cats was that they won the game 39-24.

Video: Nolan Smith gets taken off in a stretcher due to foul by Zoran Drajic
Nolan Smith of the Portland Trail Blazers had to be taken to the hospital tonight by stretcher after he was fouled on a fast break by the Rockets' Zoran Drajic during a NBA Summer League game on Tuesday night.
Smith lost his balance a few seconds after the hit to the head by Drajic and fell down on the baseline.
The video of what happened is below as well as a second video of a brief argument between Royce White of the Rockets and Ekene Ibekwe of the Blazers. Coolers heads prevailed though and both teams headed off to their locker rooms.
UPDATE: Smith suffered a concussion and was released from the hospital the very same night.

"Jeremy Lin that I used to know" Gotye parody song
Here is another parody of Gotye's hit song "Somebody I used to know." This time the parody is for Jeremy Lin leaving the New York Knicks to join the Houston Rockets.
The video is below as well as the lyrics to the parody.
Now and then I think of when we played together
Like when you shot a jumper right in Kobe's eye
Bought a ticket back to MSG
Activated my cable TV
But that was back before you tore your left meniscus
Why'd you have to sign so high
Said the Knicks would match it like you never even met James Dolan
I wish that he would pay you bro
Playing for the Rockets and they're still gonna suck
You should have played with Carmelo
Could've won a title and then maybe we'd retire your number
I guess that you just need that dough
And now you're just Jeremy that I used to know
When I think of all the players who screwed us over
Part of me believing it was always something that we'd done
Haven't seen the finals since Sprewell played
Could have had a ticker tape parade
Now you're an Asian in cowboy clothes
And we won't be crying for Jeremy that we used to know
Why'd you have to sign so high
Said the Knicks would match it like you never even met James Dolan
I wish that he would pay you bro
Playing for the Rockets and they're still gonna suck
You should have played with Carmelo
Could've won a title and then maybe we'd retire your number

Kyrie Irving challenges Kobe Bryant to a 1 on 1 game
Here is a video of Team USA teammates Kyrie Irving and Kobe Bryant trash talking about who would win a 1 on 1 game between them. They decided to make a bet with $50k going to Kobe's charity.
Who will win? Kobe has the height advantage and can back Irving down in the post but Irving has the handles and speed to counter Kobe's length and height.

Here is the video of former USA Olympian gymnast Nastia Liukin falling off the uneven bars and doing a face plant during the 2012 Olympic Trials in San Jose, California.
Liukin will most likely not make the USA team this year and go to the Olympics in London. She took a hard fall and composed herself immediately and went back on the bars again.
She received a nice ovation from the fans.
