Teacher crosses over student

This might be my favorite From Left Field video ever. In Atlanta, teacher Bryce Williams was just playing in an end-of-year basketball game at the request of his students. Then, he pulled the crossover that ended the game.

The kids running onto the court, surrounding the victim. The one kid who just hugs Williams and won't let go. The crowd yelling. It's all so good.

Here's one more angle, just for fun.

Player finds out he was cut on Twitter ======================================

Man, it would be a bummer to find out that you're out of a job on social media, wouldn't it?

But that's what happened to Hull's Alex Bruce.

Eating cereal with your name on it

A better feeling? Seeing your name on a cereal box, and then eating that cereal. That's what the Cubs' Ben Zobrist got to do on Wednesday.

One day, kids, you too can be on a cereal box. ![](https://beacon.deseretconnect.com/beacon.gif?cid=515837&pid=4)
