So has #7 been officially retired by Washington in honor of Theismann, or is it one of these deals where they haven’t given it out as a show of respect. The Mets do something similar with #24, which has only been worn twice since Willie Mays(technically three times if you count the week Kevin Torve wore it by…

I’m coaching a little league game in about 7 hours. I’m totally calling the other coach “Weird Beard” whether he has facial hair or not.

It’s funny. The same guy has been binge watching Game of Thrones, which he had never watched before,  for the last month to try and be caught up when the finale airs.

I did tell him all 3 Cap movies were worth watching, but in trying to save him time, I thought the last 2 were more important. I actually put Ragnarok and Homecoming on a separate “Not absolutely necessary, but really fun to watch” list.

I did.

My friend at work said to me today “I want to go see the new Avengers movie, but I’ve never seen a Marvel movie before. Should I still see it?” I told him at the very least he should see Infinity War first, but if he had time, he should watch Iron Man 1, Winter Soldier, Guardians, Civil War, Avengers and IW, and…

Actually, The Islanders best chance against the Hurricanes would be to get the rest of the series moved to the Nassau Coliseum. But since that isn’t going to happen, they’re pretty much fucked.

In this case, “Civil Discourse” means he’d like to live in a world where he can fuck up all he wants and everyone will smile and give him a big thumbs up.

When the draft was held at Radio City, I think you got real favs who knew their teams and put in a 2 day commitment to sit in an auditorium and watch 250 or so guys get their names called. Back then, it was a free ticket, with a lottery system to get in, kind of like the old Ticketmaster bracelet system. Waiting in…

That was the shake of a man trying to squeeze a fart bubble out of his taint.

Yes, but at least Eli didn’t get his feelings hurt.

I remember making my mom drive me to Sam Goody the day the Use Your Illusion albums came out as soon as she got home from work, and I was SURE it would be totally sold out because I waited so long.

No, the video was taken at MetLife Stadium. People literally went there in the rain to watch the draft on TV.

That’s actually “License Plate Guy”. He wears a “necklace” of about 15 Giants related license plates around his neck at all times, and is usually seated in the front row so they can hang over the railing.

A team owned by rich old white guys from Jersey and run by an old white guy from New England racist? I’m shocked.

Jones was drafted for one reason. He was hand picked by the Manning Family to be Eli’s successor. He’s the only kid Eli would agree to mentor at all. Have you seen any of the interviews with Jones? It’s like watching Eli talk without the southern drawl. He is completely devoid of any personality whatsoever. It’s made…

Yeah, Papelbon is a piece of shit. He deserves to get his ass kicked. I read an interesting article on Harper, about how his Dad would fly him around the country to play in exclusive tournaments with different teams who requested his services. At 11. He wore eye black like the Ultimate Warrior to stand out to scouts.…

Are you on the Phillies? How do you know he’s been a “Great Teammate”? Harper is the poster child of the “Me First” generation of athletes fostered by the hired gun nature of youth travel baseball today. He probably never played more than 10 games for the same team until he went to JuCo for a year. I’ve seen him do…

Yes, but with will the robots be programmed to dramatically punch batters out on Strike 3 to somehow make it seem like they had something to do with it?

I think it was 2 or 3 pitches into the game and Keith Hernandez said “Well, looks like he’s got an 8:45 rain delay start strike zone. Swing the bat.” He was dead on. Nobody wanted to sit there until 1AM in the rain. If it’s close, it’s a strike. Take a swing and let’s get the hell out of here.
