Worked for Custer.

since I’m an old, as I was reading this I was thinking of Dwight Evans—he always played against my O’s except for a few seasons at the end of his career, but even then he was one of my favorites because he was just exceptionally talented, but just not quite enough to be HoF worthy, and sadly there are a lot of players…

My brother and I read Ball Four in the mid-seventies when we were in junior high. Phrases from book became guaranteed laugh lines. Our favorite: Joe Torre with tits.

Ah yes, Texas: a state renowned for its humility and dignity.

Well, his work is gonna set him free, so...... 

“Your typical good high school football team has at most a handful of guys who will play college football at any level and then the rest who would get humiliated at their first DIII practice.”

“Hey Coach, guess I keep missing you, it’s Brett again. Just reminding you that I just spent the value of a decent late-model used car supporting your program and I expect to see some results. Not to mention, would it kill y’all to recruit some cheerleaders like the bigger schools have? Let’s talk Thursday before the…

A story about a frog that needs to mate before it croaks? Absolutely ribbeting.

I thought the last 10 months would have been sufficient warning about the dangers of replacing a competent black man with an inexperienced and unqualified white guy, but here we are again.

Simidele Adeagbo is still in the hunt to qualify in the skeleton

There’s such a weird level of arrogance here: ‘we’re the richest country in the world ergo it’s insane we’re not better at soccer than these poor countries.’

Here’s a crazy thought: maybe there’s no intrinsic reason that the richest country on earth should or even can be the best at everything.

Maybe you suck at…

like a drowning man, that rises up 2 or 3 times before he goes down for the count, Trump is that 3rd rise. He is the last gasp of a tired and poor group, many of whom have been left behind by massive changes both domestically and Internationally, and they had neither the interest, desire or wherewithal to adapt.
