So throwing away long-respected journalistic principles, whereby people may tell you things they otherwise wouldn’t/couldn’t in exchange for confidentiality, is OK as long as you don’t like the guy? We’ve become a nation entirely overtaken by feelings.

I’m still stunned every time someone says they eat Subway.

Why was Dane Cook the spokesman for baseball, anyway? [in 2007]

Miko Grimes is smiling down from Heaven

Mine played Staind’s Break the Cycle and Nickelback’s All The Right Reasons over and over and would sing along to them while he studied. He also watched Boondock Saints at least 15 times over the course of 4 months

How long has it been since you had one of those songs caught in your head? Zero seconds!

This won’t make the cut, but in terms of College Roommate Nuisance Stories, one of my two other freshman roommates played Live’s Throwing Copper the entire year. That is not an exaggeration. That album played at least once a day, for the entire year. For anyone wondering how long it takes to get sick of Live, it’s…

I would split country into two. The dividing line is Garth Brooks.

You have the first generation of country that was inspired by the same influences as rock n roll. So Cash, Orbison, Nelson, Jennings, Haggard, Williams, Parton, Cline, Lynn. Then you have the pop country which starts with Brooks, and goes through to…

No, no it didn’t. We still have the die-hard Cardinals’ fans fighting the good fight and commenting so this is still fresh and enjoyable.

RIP Macho Man. You were the best!

[With the caveat that I don’t think BP is any great catch either], what’s so great about Angelina Jolie? Born to rich, beautiful people, “suffered” through angsty teen years as a *yawn* model, then went on to a “successful” movie career by wining a couple awards for essentially playing herself in two movies, then…

Well see now, the children have not yet learned how to bargain collectively, and thus they are essentially free labour. A summer’s worth of harvesting 120 acres worth of tomatoes and artichokes will pay for a lot of real estate.

The Padres felt it was only fair since the Dodgers failed to disclose Matt Kemp was legally dead.

hell yeah baby Stand Up & Cheer

At the rate it’s going, I’ll never be able to afford getting old.

You’re leaving out something huge. American wages were artificially high from 1945 to about 1970 as the rest of the world was rebuilding. All of our factories were intact, while Europe and Asia were decimated.

It’s not the lack of unions. It’s the arrival of competition.

lol multiple incidents of tapping players nuts! The Steelers made a strategy out of helmet-to-helmet hits last year and have done it to the bengals without abandon the past 15 years with little intervention from the NFL. None of this compares to the minor shit Burfict has done (and gotten severely, unprecedentedly…

I wonder if it takes Mike Brown passing on for the NFL to not treat us like some giant fucking pimple on their face. And yes, Steelers are the golden child
