I’m just here to say that in the picture at the top, Adam Silver looks more like a character Doug Jones would play in a Sci-Fi movie than a human commissioner of a sports league.

While the concept is neat, I cannot condone anything that encourages NBC to use their SkyCam.  While not utterly horrid in football, it is nauseating and down-right unwatchable when they force it on their NHL broadcasts.

Hops were added to preserve beer way back then. Today, we have modern preservation techniques, like pasteurization and refrigeration, so we no longer need to put excessive amounts of bitter tasting garbage in our beers.

The rule could easily be simplified to:

“Why your coach is a dick”

You’d think an ostensible news outlet would be interested—compelled, even—to provide coverage of ongoing protests being staged by athletes in the most popular sports league in the country, but who has time for journalistic matters when there are wheels to be greased.

In 20 years, I don’t think any of my cars have had a functioning parking brake. Every year for inspection it gets replaced, regardless of the garage. Automatic or manual transmission... they never work... ever. 86 Mustang (5-speed manual), 87 Mustang (Automatic), 2001 Suzuki Swift (5-speed manual), 2004 Dodge Intrepid…

Being a middle-aged man, my balls are in danger of hanging out when I’m wearing pants.

My adjusted number was 81... that led to a 9" inseam. Let’s measure the shorts I have on now... 11.5" inseam...

Dear Wayne,

Sorry, The Pittsburgh image got removed. Trying it again:

I fully believe you, but that “1 digit in the zip” is likely irrelevant to E911 compliance. I GUARANTEE you that your address and the ‘industrial’ one are in different districts and are covered by different PSAPs. It’s most likely that the demarcation lines for the district/neighborhood aren’t commonly described ones,…

Don’t confuse “Atlanta” city limits (or worse, its metro area) with it’s municipality and district separations. HQ Trivia had a thing the other week where there are something like 10-12 different roads called ‘Peachtree’ in Atlanta. Peachtree Road, Peachtree Ave, Peachtree Lane, Peach Tree Circle, Peachtree Boulevard,…

Except that all of them are in different neighborhoods/municipalities just like is required by law.

Astute.  Born in Mt. Lebo, grew up in Greentree.

No, there isn’t... at least if you live in the U.S. The law requiring 911 Emergency calls be compatible with Cell-phones made that illegal in the early/mid 90s and every part of the US was brought into Phase-2 compliance by the early 2010s.

Usually when somebody comes in and does the “I don’t do it either way” post, I laugh and assume he’s just a shit-stirrer...

It doesn’t even have the Bigelow/Bedford/Crosstown/Centre/6th snake’s nest near the arena. Though, to be fair, I’m not sure how they’d represent this on a shirt:

And for the love of God, never ask one of us for directions. If you do, be prepared to hear things like “Go dahn here. Turn left where da A&P use ta be. If’n yinz hit the 3rd stop light, yinz went too far. Yinz’ll need ta take da nex righ ‘n stay on dere fer about 6 minutes, den take de 3rd right before yinz hit da…

Do the Clippers still do that?  I thought they were replaced by the water-taxis?
