“Paul Konerko once said you can only suck for so long.”

Thomas is a free agent, and they clearly don’t have any intention of signing him. Dude might be toast. 

Baseball’s power is entirely moved to the southern and western conferences just due to weather (northern teams end up playing a pile of games on the road to open every season because it starts in like mid-February), conferences that are mid-major or low-major in basketball but are in the south are as likely to be good…

Or imagine it rapped by the Beastie Boys. Best friend in Kindergarten wouldn’t share the PASTE. Threw him on the floor and I bit him in the FACE (FACE)

You know what would probably help garner support, instead of just asking for it at a church? Announce that they’ve fired everyone involved with either tasing the guy or lying about what happened. You know, actually hold everyone accountable.

Coach Gerard Goofus, however, says that Fleury is fine since concusssions don’t exist. 

We have always been absolutely convinced that Richard’s is a money laundering front for the mob. Hence why they ignored the no-smoking ordinance, they don’t care if they have to pay fines, there’s plenty of money being run through it.

They should have been good. Most talented team Izzo has ever had and he couldn’t figure out how to use it.

And those boards often are made up of other CEOs, or former CEOs who will be CEOs again, and other C-suite types, and all have an incentive to push that compensation packages up so they all make more money.

We’re lucky Trump didn’t make a “hey who brought their kid” joke about Altuve.

Dan Hicks does a good job on excitement, I think.
