I think I'll always have a crush on her.

It's impossible to have shit that works in the playoffs, that's the point of what he said. In a best-of-5 or best-of-7, even the worst MLB team of all time matched up with the '27 Yankees would probably win a game, so when you have two teams of relatively equal quality, it's basically a coin flip on which team

Neither of you are correct - there was a GoFundMe set up by a probably well-meaning fan to get Bartman to the playoffs, but his family said he wouldn't go and just wants to be left alone.

Could have been a day game. Were those still a thing when they made that movie? Probably not.

I actually like Fever Pitch in spite of myself, but I do think the movie might have been better if the Red Sox had lost again as the Farrelly brothers (Sox fans) had assumed they would.

Thanks for posting this. I read some about this Murray at the mic outing in a book about the 1987 Cubs, but haven't been able to see it before. Can't wait to watch later.

It was mentioned in the review, but I also thought I had heard Don and not Dawn. It would've been pretty funny to see Dean get righteously fired up about fighting antigay discrimination only to find the dating policy wasn't discriminatory.

Fitz became my favorite character at some point last season and he was far and away the highlight of this episode. It may not be super original to have the guy that will do absolutely anything to save the woman he loves, but Iain has nailed every beat.

Walter will be in the show at some point. The puppeteer who plays him is in the cast list and Walter is the only Muppet he plays.

Have to give the nod here to Holt's mini-monologue: "This is how it ends. Standing on a urine-soaked floor in a children's bathroom, stuck in a third-rate bird costume." As always, Braugher's reading sells it beyond belief.

Will Ferrell came to mind for me too. Hader was funny, but he seemed tonally off from the rest of the show, just as Ferrell's character was in The Office.

Actually, I think most of the folks that hate the Skins' name would probably be ok with that. The logo and team colors are excellent, so if there's a way for them to keep those without the slurrish name, that'd be swell.

No one will see this, but Tampa's make me almost angry, as much as one can get about uniform designs I guess. Because their previous look was probably my favorite in the whole league - largely no-frills pewter and gold. Their home uniforms were excellent. And they got rid of them for the trash you see before you. Sad.

Not really a WTF moment, but when I first realized that Peach was always, always, ALWAYS the computer character in my way when playing one-player MarioKart 64, she got a very off-color nickname that my siblings and I still sometimes reference.

I didn't realize it wasn't a backwards Pac-Man until embarrassingly recently. The 'new' Pac-Man logo is less confusing in that way.

Ummm, so I never knew that at all. Holy eff.

In the same vein, I didn't realize when I was a young kid that flashback scenes in movies and TV weren't just filmed years in advance. I think the first time I was confused by this phenomenon was The Wonder Years, with all those home movies that are shown with Mom, Dad and younger versions of the kids.

Somewhat related, I heard both the faster and slower versions of "Layla" as a kid and didn't realize for a very long time that they were the same song.

I was going to mention him if no one else did. Outstanding. No matter how inept I proved to be with a gun, I'd always know he'd at least provide me with a wooden gun - or a rape whistle, so someone with a real gun could come and help me.

A FUCKIN' SHARK ATE ME!
