WEEI wouldn’t fold if it lost the deal, but it would be teetering. Most of Boston’s sports journalists either WON’T go on any of the talk shows, even the benign, fairly smart ones like the 2-6 show, or are banned by their employers from interacting with WEEI because of the racist shitbirds that are on the air from…

Why would you expose yourself to the functional equivalent of Ted Bundy of radio talkers? If Minihane wasn’t doing what he is doing now, he’d be riding around neighborhoods in a van with “Free Candy” painted on the side of it. The guy is a vicious thug.

It is impossible to express how bad WEEI is. It is, effectively, a right-wing radio station that has snagged the Red Sox deal and has used it to push, through racist reprobates like Minihane, Callahan, and Ordway, a non-stop white victimization agenda. Callahan can’t even talk about coffee without making it into a…

All one has to do is look at Travis Shaw’s numbers this year and realize that people truly rise to their level of incompetence. AMIRITE, Dave Dombrowski?

Something tells me that you are working from a sample size of one which was sold 32 years ago.

Notably, there hasn’t been a single doping dismissal from this year’s Tour. Doesn’t mean that it isn’t going on, but long gone are the “get fat in October and get skinny in February” days when a course of steroids, blood dope, and weight loss pills knocked off 15 kilos to get ready for the first one week stage races.…

Uhuh. I’ve worked on and driven Subarus since I was a kid in the 80s. You cannot do traditional “balanced” release. Pump and dump after you get going. You are driving a 50/50 AWD vehicle, not your Mom’s Camry. The only clutch I have ever had to replace was on my wife’s Outback and that’s because she drove it like her…

Google “how to drive a Subaru manual.” It’s enlightening.

Ah, the old “my friend has a Subaru so I know all about Subarus.”

Yet they still can’t keep them on the lot. Our local Subaru dealer is piling up the Outbacks for the annual late-Fall-in-New-England-Oh-Hell-No-I-Am-Not-Going-Through-Another-Winter-With-My-Toyota Sales Season. How to tell a great car: They rarely advertise and when they do, it’s not to pimp an incentive. The…

The throwout bearings are a problem if you drive like a 16-year-old flat brim.

I agree they should have fixed any that failed at 50K miles, but the ones that failed at 150K: No. I had a 2002 outback that did not pop the head gaskets until 225K. As recommended, I ran Subaru coolant. Not exactly scientific, but they warned folks about using anything else.

Admitted fanboy here: You didn’t maintain the vehicle and you should have gotten the 6-speed. The CVT problem has been fixed. This isn’t 2009 anymore. And yes, the 2.5 l motors ate head gaskets, but, again, did those motors get Subaru oil and coolant or JiffyLube? The new engines are weak, but these things aren’t…

Coupled with keeping animals as pets and in prisons like zoos, have a star.

Red Sox fan here. (Yeah, fuck you too.) Two comments:

He’s been funny as hell. He’s a piece of shit, but he’s funny as hell.

Doping really hurt cycling as a sport. The Armstrong biometrics revolution has been even worse in my opinion and the grandest example is TeamSky. FroomeBot(tm) sees an attack on a mid-stage Cat 1 climb. His radio crackles. “Increase glucose intake by 100mg per 5 km. Increase cadence to 101 rpm.” It’s awful to watch…

Cycling has as many unwritten rules as baseball and all of them are bullshit that is from a by-gone era when there was no support on the road as it is today. If the yellow jersey had a mechanical, then guys would wait because it could be minutes before even neutral support could get to him. Sky has a $30 million…

Wait for the insanse breakaway tomorrow. It’s basically a metric century with 3 Cat 1s. Someone in the bottom half of the top ten could solo.

And that wasn’t just a “broke Sky.” It was a a tactical masterpiece by everyone else. All they had to do is stay on Froome’s wheel. It didn’t matter with the finale as it was whether or not he had his usual 4 lieutenants. They knew that the last 400 meters were pure hell and not the sort of thing that a…
