Ha nice

Definitely Syracuse, and maybe even Indiana, would take exception to that claim.

I fucking loved it. My jaw was on the floor every second he was on screen.

I visitied Wisconsin for my first time back in August, and the bartender at the Newsroom Pub (what a weird place...) said Spotted Cow was the beer I had to try. Fine beer, but every other Wisconsin beer I tried that weekend was better than Spotted Cow. "Just some cream ale" perfectly describes it.

Only person I've ever seen at a show wearing equipment that is worn in a combat sport before. And I've been to plenty of shows. Me, I prefer a Hanes T I won't mind tossing in the trash and some shorts. But to each his own.

A head snapping to the ground is a harrowing sound. I was at a Hatebreed concert a few years ago when some 230+ pound shirtless asshole (wearing MMA gloves too, for some dumb fucking reason) tried to stage dive into the crowd.

My mom is a survivor, and she's going to hate me for how hard I'm going in on ending this culture of pink.

Shut up with your "access to good health care helped save my life" malarkey. This is America.

I used to read Riley growing up, wanting to be as talented a writer as he. I ended up not writing about sports, but I have had to stop myself several times and start over, thinking, "this reads like some bullshit Reilly puff-piece."

His parents probably didn't spank him enough as a child.

There's a hell of a difference between being a good speaker vs. being a good communicator.

They can ask?

Sporting events are fun.

Fran Crippen died during an open water swimming championship race in the UAE just a few years ago. The heat and conditions were so bad that a swimmer died of overheating while IN the water; I can't imagine the conditions in the region for those out of it.
