SVP also interviewed Helwani live on SportsCenter tonight. Van Pelt made note that they had previously taped an interview about this whole issue, but then Kimbo Slice died, so they did a new interview live on the show. They of course talked about Kimbo first but then they sort of re-discussed (for them) this situation…

THIS!

SOLID burn on Wagner.

Bacon. Fry some goddamn bacon before you do anything.

Yeah when I asked it was kind of an impulse reaction, but thinking about it you’re right NBC probably wouldn’t benefit from that (even if the NHL probably would). Throw Detroit in with that LA/Chi/NY group that is missing and hurting American ratings.

Less obscure, more fantastic. Nomo is my favorite Dodger ever. 10 year old me living in Ohio was a Dodgers fan for life after watching his n0-hitter. I then tried using his wind-up pitching for my team in Little League (with disastrous results).

Ungreyed because of the Chan Ho Park reference.

AHHH! Terrible memories! If I’m not mistaken, Delino DeShields Jr. is a prospect in Triple-A with the Rangers. WHAT IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN?!? OH GOD!

Perhaps a big reason why ratings are down these playoffs is the fact that none of the Canadian teams made it?

I worked in a warehouse and drove a forklift for a couple years, and now I sell forklifts for a living. When I read this headline and even the story before I got to the line about him making it out with only a scrape, I feared they amputated his foot or his leg. Forklifts are absolutely nothing to fuck with. If your…

Final Countdown FTW!

Yeah, this does NOT narrow it down enough Drew!

I really enjoyed this. It made my Monday at my desk move a lot quicker.

The only Creed greatest hits I care about:

Iguodala may be primarily a defender and a passer nowadays, but for four years in his prime he averaged over 17 points a game and he was never a shooter, always a slasher. This is a circus shot, but I’m not surprised at all. This is vintage Iggy. Also, he’s only 32 right now, he has accepted being a role player off…

Hahah I just double checked and the ESPN post I was referring to just said it was HIS* longest HR of the season. Makes more sense now.

Is that 429' number accurate? This is the first place I’ve seen the actual measurement but ESPN’s twitter account posted this with a “Beltre hit the longest HR of the season from one knee” caption. I know there’s been quite a few HRs longer than 429' this year so which one is right?

Ok, asshole you opened the can of worms. First of all, I hate the Giants because I’m a Dodgers fan.

Counterpoint: Fuck the Giants.

Ok, you can fuck right off with this take sir. First of all, corn on the cob is #1. If you disagree, then you’ve never had fresh grown good shit and you also probably cook it in the fucking microwave. I like cornbread, but it’s a bit too high here. Fries are wayyy too low. Maybe as a side with ribs or whatever they’re…
