“Asking Blum whether he would commit to similarly limiting his pool of political donors to the district he represents” 

Aaron Hernandez, an innocent man, died in prison. Yet, Tom Brady (clearly guilty of evidence tampering) walks free. That’s America for you.

Does the suicide trick work for library fines, too?

Can baseball do an “all 22" style camera?

Considering the Mets’ depleted-ass lineup, ‘anonymous players’ may literally be true, i.e. who the fuck is this guy in a Mets uniform talking to me?

Is there anything better than “anonymous players” ripping on their teammates?

Which paper is pro-Mets in NY? I look forward to “anonymous players” backing Harvey and saying he’s done nothing wrong.

Reminds me of that old Hedberg joke: This is what my friend said to me; he said “You know what I like? Mashed potatoes.” It’s like, “Dude. you gotta give me time to guess.”

(2B and CF are backpedaling and charging, respectively)
“I’ve always enjoyed springtime in Minsk!” yells the CF.

“We had to change our signals.”
