Hey, I’ll see all you guys over at The Big Lead, okay?

Could be a big Eric Lindros fan.

I thought we all agreed that RBIs were not the best indicator of a player’s value, didn’t we? Because lots of players topped 100 RBIs during those years. In 2008, Wright had the fifth-most in the majors. That was the highest finish of his career.

Here’s a fun fact... The only offensive category David Wright’s ever led the league in is sacrifice flies.

Unless the splinter went in one side of your skull and is sticking out the other side, you are not allowed to go to the doctor for a goddamn splinter.

Are you in an apartment? Because I know I tried to sign up using my house’s address last season and was told it wasn’t acceptable. But I have heard that, if DirecTV thinks you’re in a building that won’t allow installation of a dish, they’ll let you sign up. Maybe I should’ve put Apt. 1A after my address.

In all cities? The past couple of seasons, the online Sunday Ticket was only available in NYC, Philadelphia, Chicago and a few other cities.

1) I have Comcast. They’re bad enough. Why would I want to pay for a shittier TV service that doesn’t work when it rains and doesn’t offer internet?

Au contraire. Here are my options when it comes to watching my favorite NFL team, which plays in a city 700 miles away from where I live...

That’s not booing, it’s just people with city pride yelling “Looooooouuuuuu!”

You’re forgetting about the excitement. Playoffs add intrigue and the possibility for some truly great moments under intense pressure. Do you honestly not think a four- or eight-team tournament would be fun to watch? (note: I have no idea how many teams are in this league, so no need to reply with, “What, are you a

Possible dumb question from an ignorant American: Are there no playoffs in that league? If not, doesn’t that seem like kind of a weird oversight?

I love it when I reach out to my boss to point out a genuine concern with the work our company is producing — an issue that could easily be fixed — and get no response whatsoever. So that thing I cared about enough to mention? Now, by default, I won’t care about it anymore either... not if I get no acknowledgement

“It’s just so sad that he died of the flu.”

I just assume that, in Manziel’s mind, getting drunk and high, throwing around his family’s money and partying his ass off beats being an NFL quarterback, which entails studying film, practicing non-stop and taking a beating physically for the next 15 years. And he’s not necessarily wrong.

“Johnny Manziel has played well in his previous two starts and even showed some leadership in pining for Mike Pettine to return next year.”

When those four teammates are George Lynch, Tyrone Hill, Theo Ratliff and Eric Snow, Iverson’s perceived selfishness is a lot more understandable.

I visited Chicago for the first time in January. What a miserable experience. I don’t know that it’s accurate to describe a city as a cesspool when it’s completely frozen over, but Chicago sucks. Much worse than getting hit by a car.

The year before, that dumpster fire reached the playoffs, beat a depleted Bulls team in the first round and took Boston to the brink in round two. In the offseason, Brand was released to save money and Iguodala was traded for Andrew Bynum. But even in their heyday, Brand and Iguodala were not transcendent players...

Since you hate the Eagles, I’m assuming you didn’t watch every minute of every game of theirs last season. I did. They were putrid.
