“They just said they deemed it intentional,” Papelbon said. “They didn’t give me any reason. I don’t know if they have to give me a reason or not. But perception is reality.”

I was listening to the Nats radio broadcast to make sure this game ended with an O’s win (panicked Mets fan), and the two guys in the booth — I don’t know who they are — were just absolutely confounded at the notion that Papelbon hit him on purpose. He came in high and tight twice, but they just couldn’t wrap their…

Because lawyers are definitely the number one cause of contraband in prison. Christ on a cracker, “metal detectors can’t tell the difference between an underwire and a gun”.

Had I been taking those videos, I would probably have pooed myself. I jumped a foot everytime that bear lunged.

Verdict: the Pope is not catholic.

Jay Cutler has zero chill.

He won a Super Bowl, so what do you think?

yeah, but is he elite?

That’s what happens when you lower the CPU difficulty at half time.

But could he do it on a rainy night in Stoke?
