That's exactly what I'm hoping for. Apparently having the award for being the best designated hitter annually in the game named after you isn't enough.

I am shocked *SHOCKED* that the last remaining "everybody outside of Boston thinks/knows this guy used PEDs but nobody could ever prove it" slugger may have lied about steroids, or steroid testing.

So I went looking for his career OPS+, (it's 139) to compare him to Edgar Martinez (his is 147)They both deserve the HOF.

David Ortiz claims he's been drug tested "more than 80" times since 2004. Hardball Talk notes that this means one of two things: Either Ortiz is lying about how often he's been tested, or that Ortiz is tested so frequently because he has tested positive before.

"In short, avoid hackneyed.." (everyone in room panics, throws chairs, smashes the projector and makes a group vow never to confirm their attendance at the conference)

"He just punched him square in the face for no reason? I don't buy it. Something else must be going on here. I bet Ford cut him off on the way into the gas station. Something like that. We'll just have to wait for the video. And if there is no video, who are we to judge this man? He may have been in fear for his life.…

I don't really care for bulky crosshovers.

Also, Hellcat > this.

Like Mario in Smash, there's only one Diablo. You can dress him up a bit and give him some extra makeup. But once you stray too far off the beaten path, he starts to lose his inherent Diablo-ness. Like his frog-like skin, which definitely does not play the character safe:

If your hair is naturally straight and you put on your balaclava by pulling directly down, your hair will do that. Smooshing can sometimes work hair miracles. Personally, as someone with long purple, blue, and black curls, I french braid mine before putting my helmet on so I don't have to fight with it or get helmet…

He's no Rob MacCachren though...

But how could that ever be done?! Car crashes are completely different from country to country! It's not like there are universal standards for thousands of other things.

But seriously this makes so much sense and the auto manufacturers would be all over it.

God I love what turbos can do to anything. You set something on fire next to a turbo, and it doesn't run away, it gets excited.

This! If this were to happen, it would eliminate almost every other gripe posted here. This needs to top the list.

Something something global standardization of crash, emissions and efficiency standards would reduce federalization costs and would, for example, help manufacturers offer more niche Euro-only models in the USA.

What the fuck are wrong with catalytic convertors? Catalytic converters are modern miracles. They DRAMATICALLY reduce the harmful emissions from vehicles (by a huge amount...we're not talking a little thing here...a lot of people underestimate what they do), and do so in a way that is extremely power and fuel…
