Moisture Aloe.  He used to play for the Expos. 

Who’s Aloe, is he another hyped Cuban player?!  Can he help us?!!

Watching someone come back after being down in a five-set tennis match is way too exciting to do away with.

When I had my (very involved, delicate) shoulder reconstruction, I wrote “NO” on the opposite shoulder with marker before I checked into the hospital. My surgeon, who I love and trust implicitly, laughed when he saw it, and that was my last memory before I went under.

I’ve despised Rod for years. He had that “former ballplayer who’s too old for this shit” attitude that Joe Morgan had mastered. It felt like he didn’t have a single insight that would have applied to the modern game. Good riddance

I won’t argue suffering or unfulfilled, but Flacco’s been putting kids out at a rate only Phillip Rivers would consider lacking.

“Gotta beat traffic in De-troit, ghost city”

Like Auburn Hills. 

actually it’s not “random,” it’s binary code, because, you know, Silicon Valley. 

Get up, everybody’s gonna move their feet.
Get down, everybody’s gonna leave their seat.

Mitch Albom remembers those seats, sitting there last season next to Ernie Harwell, Bison Dele, and Ty Cobb. Read all about it in his next book, The Bullshit I Made Up For Your Great Aunt to Believe.

I think that’s what Khabib was talking about when he called it a sport of respect.

While it’s a foregone conclusion that Khabib’s purse is going to be withheld, all this talk of banning him from the UFC smacks of favoritism. You’re telling me McGregor gets all the passes in the world, but Khabib gets banned for defending his family and religion? No, sir. That dog won’t hunt.

From the actual fight perspective, after rewatching it, that third round is crazy. Not only does Khabib seem to take that round off in order to rest up for the rest of the fight, but it does put his decision to stand in front of the tired McGregor in a different light. It was almost as if he wanted to mentally destroy…

I agree, there was actually two of them. One came in the ring first, black shirt and black gloves so he would have been part of Khabib’s corner. You can see McGregor swing at him. Then the second dude coming in from behind.

Also, this.

This is a very very long story, but it seems to make people who hear it chuckle along the way. And, as a former Gawker reader, I haven’t commented on these sites in a couple of years, so why not. It’s late here in Kiev, and I really just want to tell a story.

Because the #eecummings isn't as catchy

Probably one of the most under reported issues in the league. I know a lot of dudes in the league and there is a lot of coke going on. 

So are they going to arrest every player in the NHL for participating in the cocaine ring that is the NHL?
