I’m 33 and have that “problem.” I just say they’re for my nephew. (Not a complete lie.)

I can’t tell you what the line is. The situation and the person you are dealing with tend to dictate what the line is. If the kid’s not endangering anybody, work around it and deal with them later. I’d rather get shown up by a kid having a bad day, than be the 11 o’clock news lede facing criminal charges, a lawsuit,…

You engage with them.

A young team with talent, an offseason with a transfer window in a top heavy league, and this guy still can’t live up to is “mid-table” nickname. But go on about why he should be given the keys to a Premier League team, even if it is Villa...

I like the Jensen pick for pop, but I thought this would've been it...

His Inglewood roots didn’t help him with Boston badass, Ray Benzino though...

From your keyboard to god’s inbox, man...

Did nobody else go through that phase with Nextel phones where it was cool to chirp back and forth on speaker?
