I'm a big softie...during the Olympics when they cut to the American athlete with tears pouring down their face. Especially when it is some teenager who has to balance perfection on the uneven bars with differential calculus.

I cannot recommend that Thermos enough. I drink a TON of coffee during the day and hate the 931 year old Bunn coffee machine that still has grounds in it from the day Nixon resigned. I make Peet’s Coffee (best out there for the $$) in a french press the night before at 175 degrees at about 9 pm. I pour it in the…

I remember reading an anecdote abut Lynn Swann getting a compound fracture of a finger on a play and going back to the huddle oblivious of the bone sticking out. I’ve never been an athlete (I play sousaphone and trombone) but I work with several former college, and 2 pro, athletes. They always say there is another…
I’d never heard of that but that seems like a really good charity idea. I know that Nolan Ryan did something like that a few years back and Rick Reilly wrote a column about it. Fortunately my work colleague is a nice, humble man who just shrugged off his ability but he could have really made us look dumb if he wanted.
That’s almost the exact same situation I had with the pitching. He threw it right down the middle of the plate and I was at LEAST a half second late and I knew it was coming. He threw a couple of curves and sliders and I’d like to think it was the gin that I missed them by 2 feet.
In response to Owen, I work with a guy who was a AA pitcher for a few different MLB clubs. We played a friendly game of baseball with my work department a few years ago. He was very nice and threw some BP pitches and we mostly made a little contact. Towards the end of the night, admittedly with a little liquid…
I don’t understand why everyone is so crabby in publix.
I agree about Santiago although since they never established what year/grade he was I suppose it could have been easily explained away with a quick line about “losing Santiago after graduation” or something. The Landry thing always bothered me since, after causing such an uproar with Landry, his dad, and Tara, that it…

We have two of the baskets from Bed Bath and Overpriced and use them for the bottle collars, nipples, and the bottles. (I also use them for Nalgene tops and such.) With a 3 year old and a 6 month old that go through sippy cups and bottles like they’re going out of style and two adults who like to cook, we run the…
Maybe this says something about me but it took me a long time to figure out what happened during the missing episodes of season 2. I feel like that might have been intentional as a way of sending a message.

Oh man, how will Huckabee know which religious freedom rally to go to claiming oppression against Christians?
“Housed in the Division of Athletics”...
In high school a friend of mine since grade school was in a car accident. Another high school student, I’ll call him Asshole, was driving a car and made a turn, through a yellow-about-to-turn-red light in front of a gravel truck. My friend was killed while Asshole escaped scot free. Asshole came to the funeral and…
His fielding percentage is also in the 900 range! (Yeah it's a suit joke)
I was going to say Kyle Farnsworth kicking that metal clubhouse fan that landed him on the DL. As a side note I met Farnsworth at the Gin Mill once. He is SO BIG.
Well that’s what you get when you let Commander Krill spit in your cooking Ryback!
How DARE you sully the name of the TRUE best ump in the league...the one and only C.B. Bucknor.
Don’t you know Desi, Jerry Callo’s dead!
Can you do me a favor? Can you mark any podcasts where there is repeated profanity as explicit? I figured there wouldn’t be serious profanity in this episode so I played it in the car with my son. Turns out there was a bunch of profanity...
