But look at all the great guys we did  sign and/or kept for a very long time:

Boy, there’s just something odd about disasters and September 11th.

Tiki and Ronde Barber (SPOILER: they harness the power of family and hard work to achieve their dreams)

Maybe the Knicks should offload some of their (extreme) excess of power forwards onto the Rangers.  They’re all being paid by the same entity, so time to see Bobby Portis as an enforcer.

To be fair, I just realized that my original moniker was “Bobby Two-Tugs,” as I usually favor the alliteration whenever possible.

Any nods my way are appreciated, and a fan of yours as well.

As the author of the moniker, a hyphen in “Bobby Two-Strokes,” please.

I’m not sure what the rules for tipping in Vegas are since it was my first and only trip there (and still don’t), but $20 felt kinda low. Another $50 was probably too much, but as a young guy who wanted to feel like he was doing things the “right” way, I didn’t want to shortchange her.

There’s a similar age dynamic in…

Retailers selling winning lottery tickets usually get a bonus as part of the incentive to become a retailer.

I had a great blackjack run in Vegas, netting about $350. During the run when I was up $200, my friends told me I should tip the dealer.  I gave her $20 because I was so excited to be winning and was afraid a larger tip and a bad run would wipe me out.  As I cashed out, I realized I was being a silly dummy and tipped…

I’m on OkCupid right before I move to a new city, and a woman who has no image on her profile contacts me telling me she’s interested in me because I seem like “an independent thinker,” and that she has no profile pic because she doesn’t cater to “those superficial considerations.”

Not knowing anyone in town, I agree…

You can’t possibly ask me to explain Juve’s rationale: It’s the same club that didn’t back up Moise Kean when he suffered racist abuse from Cagliari, leading to his departure for relative pennies this past summer.

From what I remember from my Football Manager, players younger than 21(?) don’t count against the roster total.

So if the Juve midfield gets devastated, they’d have to call up their academy players to fill in until the Champions League rosters can be re-jiggered in February after the January transfer window.

This sucks…

From what we’ve seen so far, it looks like the interior of the new trains will be up to the task, even if infrastructure issues effecting the line remain unsolved amid legislative gridlock.

Stick to sprots, LeBron!

You asshole.

Recommendations from a chess-loving friend:

“Chess.com is pretty good, with lots of great interactive lessons that take you all the way up from ‘how to move the pieces’to learning basic concepts, practicing tactics, etc.

The other benefit of the site is that you can also use it to immediately find a match with anyone in…

Screwit, I can’t wait till January 2021 for Andrew Yang’s $1000 check to come in the mail, I’m filing suit too. Sat through a 20-minute drive through only to be told they were out of sandwiches.

This really should be a class-action lawsuit.

I got a Chef’s Choice Trizor XV—recommended by the Wirecutter—when it was on sale at Amazon and use it every year or so, though I probably should use it more.

It works pretty well, though I think I’ve screwed up the back edge of my santoku a bit because the way the Trizor is set up, there’s room to accidentally not…

Offering folks complimentary “End of Meal” McCafés iced coffees is a sure way to get them to leave.

The one I had in South Carolina to stay alert was as thin and tasteless as a Barbie doll.

Beats the hell out of me. One possibility is that he was just going to strip it of its assets like the players, the ground, etc.

But he didn’t address any of the financial issues after he bought them for £1: at that price there had to have been other options that were less shitty.
