Good point re: Marshaling the line—it's exactly what we need and the reason we missed Carra so greatly this past season. Had he stayed on another season, I think there's a very real chance we might have won the league. Unfortunately it's a skill neither Skrtel or Agger have learned in their time at the club and it

Now that he's in the AL, where I can ignore him completely until the post-season, it's almost like he never existed…

Wubba lubba dub … step?

Even the people I know who like dubstep (God help them) can't define dubstep. What hope does Merriam-Webster have?

This is a pretty great breakdown of the issues with the inverted W: goo.gl/KdpeyP

It warms my heart to see this shared contempt for the Braves and Brian "Defender of the Unwritten Rules" McCann.

As a Liverpool fan, as much as i like Lallana I agree. Just can't see it happening, especially not given the premium on young(-ish) British talent. We need depth up top, but there's likely to be better value found abroad (Shaqiri, Konoplyanka, etc.). I'm keeping my fingers crossed we sign Ashley Cole - he'd provide

It will be heartbreaking for Atletico if Costa and Turan can't play; their squad simply doesn't have the depth to cope with injuries to such star players. I'll be pulling for them all the way, though, and regardless of what happens, Simeone has worked miracles this season.

Prior was a different beast though, with a mid-90's fastball and an awkward throwing motion that put a lot of undue stress on his arm. Not that I'm defending Baker — he burned Prior out much too quickly, but the reality is that without the proper adjustments to his mechanics, Prior was never destined for a long,

Keuchel has pretty routinely thrown in the 110+ range the last couple of seasons, and he's not a guy who throws hard enough that you could say he's really pushing his risk of injury by throwing 128 in a single game. Obviously he shouldn't be throwing that many pitches night-in, night-out, but I think for a guy like

Seeing as this fella is from LA, I can only assume he co-opted his name from the dive bar in Echo Park that serves $5 PBR / Tequila shot combos and free tacos. Which will make it very disappointing if I don't get cheap liquor or free tacos for listening to this.

Audrey Tautou?

Now I'm perplexed, since I bought some patches at a Sav-On yesterday. Maybe it's a Brigadoon Sav-On that only appears once every time I walk out of my house.

I liked this, but I don't like this, y'know. Solidarity, man.

I graduated high school with Lauren Worsham, who picked up her first nod today for A Gentleman's Guide… Aside from being super nice and cute as a button, she was our valedictorian, went to Yale, sang for the New York Opera and now is nominated for a Tony for her first role on Broadway. All of which begs the question,

TV has taught me that Colin Hay is the only musician from Australia. But he's not from Australia.

Be sure to catch him on the big screen this summer! Transformers: Age of Extinction, June 27th in Theatres, Real D 3D and IMAX® 3D.

Honestly I think the disparity between his TED Talk and the party makes perfect sense given his both his borderline-Asperger's lack of social skills and his inability to feign interest.

That's not the same as hating the movie. You'd be more than welcome to that opinion had you bothered to watch the thing, but you can't really comment on the merits of a film without even attempting to watch it in context.

Anti-malarials don't have a 100% efficacy. A close friend contracted malaria about 4 years ago, while still taking meds. Thankfully she was stateside by the time it peaked, so she had access to the best possible treatment. Even so, she was hospitalized for 2+ weeks and suffered respiratory failure. It's sad but not
