That is fucking great. +1

So I asked Jon Paley two sorta semi-serious questions about Vladimir Guerrero today, both kind of exaggeratedly praising his abilities and general wonderfulness. I say "semi-serious" because of course I was being hyperbolic and silly, but it's also true that young, healthy, Expos-era Vlad Guerrero was one of the most…

Jon, can you address the rumor that your film was originally to be titled Bat Dreams, until it was discovered that this was already licensed as the title of an upcoming reboot of the Batman franchise, directed by David Lynch and starring Peter Dinklage as the Caped Crusader and Kyle MacLachlan as Batgirl's shifty-eyed…

This is all very informative and interesting (genuinely), but: why are they so damn good?

Was young, healthy Vladimir Guerrero the most amazing baseball player ever, as well as a radiant walking incarnation of pure joy, or shut up shut up shut up?

"I learned it by watching you, Berman!"

Da-damn damn. Didn't see this until now. +1

[drools uncontrollably]

Oh, you stop that. Who else could explain the Higgs Boson to any random person who happened to ask?

I like this a lot. More than anything I like that you're brainstorming ways for commenters to take charge of the comment section and shape it to their liking, rather than stomping your feet and trying to blow the rain back up into the sky.

Ah, jeez. Not to be all, "This old dress? Why, I only wear this when I don't know what to wear!" but I really don't think that one's all that big a deal. Frankly, I'm still a little bit shocked that nobody else made it first. It's a very Deadspin kind of comment, you know? I think it's more Deadspinny than it is…

I can get on board with this. Nobody seems to be having more fun than Hume, on a comment-by-comment basis, and that's really infectious. Always trying something new and fresh, and always going for a real laugh. Dude's a gem.

Jaws. Not for any patriotic or jingoistic subject matter, but because it is A) the greatest summer movie of all time, and B) an example of what Americans do better than anyone else, which is make big thrilling entertainments for people to gape and gawk at.

Ha!

A blowout baseball game can get pretty boring. By far the most interesting part of last night's game was when the White Sox first took their 18-0 lead, and at that exact moment, 1,500 miles away in Brentwood, California, Tom Brady's asshole clenched so tight it swallowed an entire couch cushion.

Why so cavalier with the antibiots, d'Artagnan?

Oh, but yes.

This is really excellent. +1.

That's terrific.
