Weekend Hot Clicks: Boogie gets schooled, Gary Player's harsh words

DeMarcus Cousins gets schooled by a kid, Gary Player has harsh words for Chambers Bay, Alexandra Daddario is the Lovely Lady of the Day, and more.

Hey everyone, Dan Gartland here with your Weekend Hot Clicks. The NHL and NBA playoffs may be over but we've still got plenty of sports action this weekend. Feel free to pass along tips, suggestions and feedback on Twitter: @Dan_Gartland.

DeMarcus Cousins gets embarrassed

Boogie Cousins isn't great on defense, but he should probably still be able to prevent a small child from scoring. 

Gary Player hates Chambers Bay

This year's U.S. Open host, Chambers Bay, isn't too popular with the players. Henrik Stenson said the greens are "borderline laughable" and "like putting on broccoli," while Jordan Spieth said the 18th hole was "dumb." Golf legend Gary Player doesn't care for the course either.

Lovely Lady of the Day

Alexandra Daddario stars in San Andreas, the third-most popular movie in the country, and the show that put her on the map, True Detective, debuts its second season on Sunday night. Seems like a good time to feature her here. (click here for full-size gallery)

41-year-old knocks out 51-year-old

Kimbo Slice, the 41-year-old MMA fighter made famous by his YouTube street brawls, knocked out 51-year-old Ken Shamrock at Bellator 138 on Friday night. Shamrock had Slice in a chokehold for the better part of 45 seconds, but Slice escaped and dropped Shamrock.

Speaking of old guys...

Former NFL player (and MMA fighter) Herschel Walker thinks he could still play in the NFL. Walker is 53.

At least it's more original than A-Roid
