The Raiders went to London right after their game on Sunday, and had all week to acclimate to the time zone change. The Bears didn’t arrive until Friday night. The Bears looked exhausted during that game, and I have to think that jet lag had a lot to do with it. It’s like none of the Bears coaching staff has ever…

Fats and oils are the conduits through which flavor travels.
Fuck off. If we have to assume anyone who is having a good season also necessarily has to be using PEDs, why even bother watching sports? Isn’t sports the place where you put all your misplaced optimism? Why ruin that with default pessimism?
Derek Rose - *waits in front of Twitter*
The only correct response.
That’s more true with pitchers than position players. There are many position players who can come in and make an impact - Kris Bryant picked number 2 in the 2013 draft, for instance won College Player of the Year in 2013, Rookie of the Year in 2015, and MVP in 2016. Mark Appel, the player picked just before Bryant as…
And there are racist tweets, because of course there are.
Wait until they get to the lager is all I ever drink phase of working at a brewery. All that high ABV beer can be delicious, but you can have two or three at most before you have to go home and pass out. Soon they’ll be telling you about how Hamm’s is the best macro brew lager ever made and you’ll want to shoot…
What’s interesting about bourbon nerds is that they get snobby about paying less for high desirability bourbon. People who can find a bottle of Weller 12 and pay MSRP for it act superior to people who find it on the secondary market. Wait. Did I say interesting? I meant insufferable.
You mean you’re not a fan of that D1 stalwart the University of Northern Colorado? You didn’t cheer them on when they won the CIT last year?
Len Kasper is the squarest square who’s ever put on a pair of khakis and New Balance sneakers. Jim DeShaies takes 45-60 seconds to respond sometimes because Len makes the corniest of corny jokes that he has no idea to respond to.
Two days later was the Challenger disaster, and that pretty much shut us up for the rest of the school year.
As a Cubs fan, I’m shocked at how much goodwill this ownership group has been able to piss away in only 2 years after winning the World Series. Did they not know that Chicago is one of the most liberal cities in the US? Did they think that we were just going to welcome their right wing nut job BS with open arms…
I was in grade school in Chicago in January 1986, and we watched the Super Bowl Shuffle during lunch every week of the playoffs. I assume that continues to this day.
You want to see some serious rich people Dynasty shit? Wait until Virginia McCaskey dies. The backstabbing and maneuvering that will go on to take control of the Bears is going to be insane, and I have zero confidence that the McCaskeys will continue to own the team when the dust settles. Which will likely be for the…
The McCaskeys were out maneuvered by Reinsdorf and Wirtz. They didn’t want competition for the concert business at the United Center, so they made sure the renovation did not include a domed stadium.
There are two different kinds of kosher salt, though - Diamonds Crystal Salt and Morton Coarse Kosher Salt. Morton is saltier than Diamonds, so most folks will tell you to stick with Diamonds, because it’s easier to over-salt with Morton. For real.
And let’s be frank - you don’t go into business with someone like Bernie Madoff, who promised guaranteed returns at higher than average rates, without either being naive or knowing that there’s something shady going on behind the scenes. No one is going to feel sorry for you for being a sucker.
He got a player grade ring. I think he’s doing ok.
There is no sadder baseball fan than one who’s team won the pennant but not the ring.
