It’s hard to blame Coleman for wanting to get as far away from that sadsack franchise as humanely possible.

I’m surprised she told you about that.

My question is this: Suppose Ward went back to third and stayed on the base. If Profar tags Ward before Profar touches the base, is Ward out? He’s on the base, but he is being forced home since in this scenario Profar hasn’t touched the bag yet.

It’s like that old column “What’s the Call?” (or something like that) that used to appear in The Sporting News.

Yeah, if the force is still in play, it’s not your base and you have to run. If Ward went back to third, Profar could have tagged him, then stepped on the base, then thrown to either of the other bases with two outs recorded and the force still intact.

Try playing rugby, the game in which the players spend eighty minutes pretending that they AREN’T hurt.

You think Torts is pissed, how about Jack Johnson’s parents who now have to buy 4 houses in Pittsburgh!

Really enjoying Lauren’s coverage of what has been a really fun, exciting World Cup!

It’s okay, Billy writes poorly and is bad at sarcasm. You’re excused for not being able to parse it out. 

I can’t tell if this writer is trying to employ sarcasm or not, which I guess means either I’m an idiot or this is a poorly written article. Or something else.

Either way, I love seeing Mexico do well, I love seeing Chicago celebrate Mexico do well, and I want Mexico to keep doing well in the World Cup. If that somehow…

“Is Joe Flacco an elitist? Vote now”

Is just throwing this in without any justification peak Billy?

“Actually, the divorce was the best thing that ever happened to me.”

The dipshit on the far right looks like he's about to explain why it's OK to use the n-word in public.

Costello: Who’s in third?

[casts stone, sees it not going far enough, runs underneath to catch it, casts again]

‘80s jocks were right - nerds are bad fucking news.

It actually doesn’t impact that at all when you realize that the Browns spend most of the game with their heads shoved up their own asses.

I am a native Minnesotan, raised by Minnesotans, and have made a sort of hobby to study and emulate accents.

That was pretty overtly hostile for Minnesotans
