Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if Hard Knocks didn't get anything. I saw some special on the Making of Hard Knocks this year (what?! I really missed football), and they basically said it was impossible to cover 80-100 players at camp. So, they talked with the coaches (also, agents lobby for their players to get…

Ha! That was my first thought, too! You know all the girls were fighting to be the belly dancer so they could claim that slutty dancing was "legitimate".

I actually felt like Georgia could claim several of the meals at the top of this list (fried catfish, okra, fried green tomatoes, BBQ, shrimp and grits, etc.)....basically, anything fried and horribly unhealthy.

Jesus, stop hitting me with your damn cats....

Fair enough. Atlanta 30 years ago is way different than now (just look up some skyline pictures to see the dramatic change). In terms of gay acceptance, within the city, I've never seen any problem...people hold hands/make out/etc. without any concern. If you work in Atlanta, you'd almost certainly be fired if you…

Uhhh...right, I'm a local. And, you said ATLANTA is intolerant, which is really not the case, and my point was that by saying Atlanta is one of the most intolerant cities shows that you haven't actually been to the South to understand a) Atlanta is a very vibrant and tolerant city, and b) there are many shitty…

But LOOGIT at the South and 'dem hillibillies hatin' on the gays! They confirm my broad stereotypes!

Bahaha! Atlanta is near the top of the heap?! Have you ever been anywhere in the South? Aside from Austin, New Orleans, Nashville (maybe), and the Research Triangle, Atlanta is probably one of the most tolerant cities in South. The rest of Georgia...well, that's a different story (as is the case with New Jersey…

Now, this we can agree on. And, I agree that nothing is better than a solid lightly salted fry.

I'm sorry...you lost me at mayonnaise. Fucking mayo is the WORST! Regardless, I assumed we were talking about some sort of good fry here. If we're talking shitty McDonald's or Steak n' Shake fries, then dunk away in condiments (I view condiments as cover up for shitty food...if you eat something and think "this…

Whoa whoa! So, instead of opting for a delicious well-crafted seasoning on your fries, your preferred option is to a) dunk your fry in sugary mass-produced ketchup, and b) imagine that it tastes good? How am I supposed to take your rankings seriously if you're viewing it all through the Heinz-colored lenses? I bet…

I hate you as a human being for putting steak fries in your top 3. Steak fries are only slightly better than potato wedges, but like potato wedges, they are usually horribly potato-y and require that I chug water just to get them down. Somewhere along the way, someone thought a fry would be better if we put more…

I am forever skeptical of crinkle cut fries because my parents also bought shitty frozen Ore Ida and microwave crinkle fries. I can't tell you the number of times I bit into the one fry that didn't de-thaw and was partially frozen...THE WORST!

They're both at the bottom, but for me, potato wedges are the worst. "Oh, hey french fry/potato wedge, you look delicious....let me just have a bite—- [chokes on potato insides and clears airway with a liter of water, repeat]"

Well said...I'm struggling because I have had horrible and good versions of most fries. If we're going by the most consistently well-cooked fries, I'd probably vote curly, too. However, if I'm picking between some good curly fries or good standard fries, I'm going standard most times.

Rally Bear has serious ups! He's at least two "Dustin Hoffman's" off the dugout roof...which, if I remember my conversion table correctly, is about 2.5 feet. right?

Sure, Rally Bear is great and all, but you know what is better? A perfectly folded Rally Towel...it's for folding, not waving.

I feel like this is like the argument I have with my dad when we go to Braves games...He understands the logic of advanced stats and what not, but at some point, he's just like "But, regardless of all that, the 9th is still the toughest inning" or "You got to put the hot-hand or clutch guy at the top of your order". …

Agree on outs varying wildly. Based on CK's average pitches/AB, 6 outs would probably be in the range of 33 pitches (FYI - CK pitched 2 no-hit innings in the 2010 NLDS...33 pitches). This season CK had 25 pitches or more in 6 of his 68 appearances and 1 in Game 2 of this NLDS (he also pitched 22 times on…

Easy response:
