Baseball is the only sport that actually looks like America.

When the thought, “waiting for the right time to break it to the internet” crosses your mind, it’s a powerful sign that you have made poor life choices.

Andrea Bargnani is the reason you should.

Could be part of it I suppose. At the same time, Obama has a 57% approval rating, the economy is in as good a place as it’s been since before the crisis, including wages beginning to rise.

It’s that look... like when you squeeze out a fart, but maybe shit yourself.

No one hates the Cubs more than I do, but christ, just let them have their fun for another day before going on seemingly pointless rants about how they may or may not end up like Boston fans. As Barry said, they get until their parade and then they can go fuck themselves (paraphrasing).

Columbus: Youre Indians. This is India.

The man failed miserably selling gambling, football, and steak.

This supposed “administrative headache” could very easily be solved by simply making them salaried employees who make more than $48K a year:

Of all the SF teams (which includes the Warriors now), the Giants easily have the least annoying fans. Can’t even find much to generally gripe about with them... until they get deep into the playoffs. Whenever they get to the World Series everybody starts acting like morons. Half the people who come through the day…

Curt hasn’t been this invested in a trainwreck since 38 Studios.
