It really is amazing how competitive Little League is now. My kid’s league has 7-year old travel teams (maybe even 6-year old, not sure). And while his current team (he’s 9) has some very good players, his coach told us that he’s not a yeller, that his goal is to have fun and be better at the end of the season than…

Kudos to Troy Brisard and Kirk O’Quinn - the two coaches who came forward and let Klein know about the other coaches’ disgusting comments/plan.

Exactly. You only have to do it a few times before they have to stop shifting

Bunting is not hard. I mean, everything is hard when the ball is coming at you 90 mph, but bunting is not harder than hitting a line drive.

No, if either of these teams finishes half a game out of a playoff spot, it’ll still be meaningless because it means the first five seals have been opened already and we’ll all soon perish in the earthquakes and the lakes of fire.

The only time I scrape from the top of the butter is when I, or someone in my family, has failed to take the stick of butter out of the fridge and I have a toasted piece of bread, bagel, or english muffin cooling on the counter, so I need the butter to be essentially shaved in order to promote melting. I’m not proud…

Florida: “It counts!”
Wisconsin: “Double check.”

Haha, Chiozza and Showalter really were playing H-O-R-S-E.

If Lynch took over for Richter, I would watch Conan on a 24 hour loop.

Sometime during the 2nd quarter of the FSU/Oregon game, my parents asked, "can we change to a less boring game?" I coldly replied, "No. I've earned this. We are going to watch every second."

Not often you see something like this...you know, a woman in bed with a Notre Dame football player under her own volition.

that may actually be greg paulus

The thing I dislike about this whole "controversy" is that it became a "national issue" only because it happened in New York City.

all true, but you are leaving something out. You DO NOT DARE BITCH about any of this, because it's legitimately ten times rougher for your wife. She will straight-up cut you, with total justification.

I took 7 days of paternity leave. But with holidays and weekends, it became about 17 days. It was then that I learned that taking 3 3-hour naps a day does not equal 8 hours of sleep a day.

Johnny would have juked right, bounced off his left tackle, fumbled the ball, caught it mid-air, scrambled left, and then thrown across his body to Swopes in the end zone for a touchdown.

Heaven forbid he act like a decent husband and father. His wife can hardly walk at the moment and no doubt needs assistance with the baby. He's being a good guy.

This from Wikipedia:

If anyone in America has a good reason to take paternity leave, it's them. They spend half of their time on the road, their jobs are secure no matter how much time they take off, and whether or not they go to work is by all measures, completely irrelevant. But enough about Congress. LOLOLOLOLOL

Hmm I wonder why any player would need to take some time off after his wife gave birth..... Oh maybe because his wife squeezed a fucking human being out of her vagina, and she's incredibly fatigued. That obviously is a pretty damn exhausting event for the lady.
