Huge Time Ballers

We already have ballolz, but I would like to confuse people further by discussing ballers.  Aren't balls the opposite of lolz? Yes.  But Ballers are actually good.  What is a baller, you may ask?  A baller is defined as "one who succeeds in an ostentatious fashion while maintaining a laid-back demeanor."  Those who ball consistently can become "Big Time Ballers."  Such people include LeBron James, Snoop Dogg, Daniel Dennett, Barack Obama, and Bill Clinton (status temporarily revoked.)  Here is an ode to big time ballers:


(The man filming himself playing the song in his basement, Jim, is also a big time baller.)

There are too many big time ballers to name here, and indeed more are made every minute.  For example, a few weeks ago no one had heard of Usain Bolt, but with performances like this one (sorry, can't find a link to the real thing on NBC,) he's clearly a big time baller.  If Usain Bolt or any of the other BTBs keep ballin' for a few more decades, they have a slim chance of obtaining the most coveted title in all of Ballerdom, they could become... 

A HUGE TIME BALLER

A Huge Time Baller must have balled for nearly their entire life, and their balling must have been of an exceptional magnitude.  There are currently only four Huge Time Ballers; they are, in no particular order:
1. Matt Ridley
2. Michael Jordan
3. Lyle Denniston
4. Tony

Are any of you, BoL readers, aware of any Huge Time Ballers? 

P.S. The opposite of a baller is a puker.  This is self explanatory.
