MBTA Buskers Cover Taylor Swift, Pay the Bills at the Same Time

These guys are blowing up right now.

Live from a T station near you, Rhett Price and Josh Knowles are bringing their talents right to your daily commutes.  The two violinists, and former Berklee College of Music students, manage to make a living off of performing at various MBTA stations.

The video above, their cover of Taylor Swift's "I Knew You Were Trouble," has gone from 10,000 to nearly 50,000 views overnight.  With their reputation growing, the duo is planning a trip to New York City to play out in their subways as well, hoping to continue their successes in Boston.  Shouldn't be too difficult to go anywhere and make a killing considering the amount of talent these they have.  I could listen to them play all day.

Thanks to The Big Example for finding this video.

Seven-Year-Old Jack Hoffman Scores Touchdown During Nebraska Spring Game

This is so cool.

Seven-year-old Jack Hoffman suffered through weeks of seizures and medical procedures in 2011 just to come out of the battle with a pediatric brain cancer diagnosis.  He has been fighting ever since, even through two brain surgeries, proving he's one of the toughest kids around.

How tough?  Tough enough to break off a 69-yard run in Nebraska's spring football game against guys who are at least 11 years older than him.  He brought 60,000 fans at the stadium to their feet, and was mobbed by the entire Nebraska squad in the end zone after the score.

What a cool moment and an awesome story this is.

Bubba Watson Drives a Hovercart

According to Bubba Watson, he started out driving golf carts when golf got in the way.  Pretty sure if he started out driving this thing, golf would not have stood a chance.

The video above is an advertisement for Oakley, featuring Chris Fitzgerald, president of Neoteric Hovercraft, Inc., who sell actual hovercrafts similar to this.  Unfortunately, the likelihood of seeing these bad boys at the links near you is next to zero.

Maybe one day, though...

Stevie Johnson's Random Act of Kindness

So the Bills won't make the playoffs, no big deal.  That's not going to stop wide receiver Stevie Johnson from being awesome.

While standing in line at Walmart, a couple filed in behind Johnson with a big-screen TV.  Being an awesome guy, Stevie informed the couple that he was going to purchase the TV for them, spreading a little bit of Christmas cheer.

Johnson is already involved in Vizio's "Touchdowns for TVs" promotion, which gives one lucky fan the chance to win a Vizio 60-inch TV whenever Johnson scores a touchdown.  In late November, Johnson personally delivered a TV to a fan who was one of the winners.  A TV is also donated to the Boys and Girls Club when no. 13 crosses the plane.

"I think it's very important that you do give back when you're in a position we're in as NFL players. I mean you have enough to give back so why not and make some peoples lives," said Johnson.

Teddy Bear Toss - Coolest Event In Pro Sports

You're looking at over 21,000 teddy bears raining down on the ice in Calgary. The Calgary Hitmen, of the WHL, held their 18th annual "Teddy Bear Toss" on Sunday night.

The Teddy Bear Toss has helped give over 213,000 stuffed bears to children through local hospitals and charities in the Calgary area since 1999.  The Toss occurs when a member of the Hitmen scores the team's first goal.  Sunday night, it took less than 15 minutes for the Teddy Bear goal, and took another 45 minutes for the bears to be swept up.

Watching this video is nothing short of amazing.  The Scotiabank Saddledome only seats 19,000, but over 21,000 bears were collected in just one night.  Its one of those feel good stories in sports, and its an awesome hockey story in a time when you can't even find an okay one.

I mean, what words can I really use to describe this?

Scrumtrulescent is the only one that comes to mind, really.
