This explains the brief period of time when paleontologists believed that earliest humans in the New World killed megafauna with handguns.

One of the sad realities of life is that the consequences of your actions sometimes reach much farther than you expected when you acted. When your mom told you not to eat the Twinkees before dinner, and then you did, you may have expected to be yelled at and maybe even lose dessert that night, but then mom brings down…

If worms are bugs, so are slugs and snails, which are the absolute worst because (1) they serve no function (unlike worms), (2) they’re gross, and (3) they terrify me.

Let’s see:

This is what happens when courses start letting every weekend hacker bring in those giant-headed drivers onto the course: one guy brings a Big Bertha, the next brings one of those 750cc illegal drivers; one guy brings a normal size gator, the next one brings this monstrosity. Fucking golf, man.

Very observant; you must also be a member of our tribe?

We live in the Bay Area; I am a Warriors fan. But somehow, three of my kids hate the Warriors: my son is a Kings fan, my oldest likes Lebron, and my youngest is a soccer player that hates basketball. We were at a restaurant that was showing the game last night and my oldest said, “Man, all these people are going to be…

He was fouled! It was a blatant trip! How could they not call that? Jesus.

Epic: in which we meet the hero, see the hero face his/her greatest obstacle, see the hero fail (believing him/her to have died), and then see the hero rise, triumphant. Cue inspirational music, role credits.

I saw a stat on ESPN after the game that, in this series, the average distance of Lebron’s shot attempts was 5.5 feet and the average distance of his made FGs was 1.6 feet. Man is getting to the rack. A lot.

Its kind of astounding that the Los Angeles area is able to watch 2 of the potentially greatest players of all time. Not wanting to jinx anybody, but its like if Walter Johnson and Ty Cobb had both played in Philadelphia or if Clemens had played in Oakland while Bonds was a Giant.

I live in the Bay Area and read Kawakami’s column in the Mercury. Additionally, I hate Jed York for what his entitled Tommy Boy incompetence has done to the 49ers. But, man, Kawakami’s got it in for York; I mean, I don’t think he’s every had a Niners-related column that didn’t find some way to slam York. This story…

He also has a ream of pages that say variants of “All work and no play make George a dull boy.” And they frankly freak his wife out.

Dark horse: Molly Weasley. Just to teach us the lesson (yet again) that not everything happens the way it should.

I normally agree with you Drew, but you are wrong today: Odor’s was a sucker-punch. The discussion of whether or not baseball (and basketball) fights are pussy bullshit is a legitimate topic*, but as it currently stands, there is an established “fight” protocol in baseball: (1) egregious insult (e.g., HBP, hard-slide,…

I’m in the minority in this, but I think Odor was a bitch in this. Given baseball’s established “fight” protocol, this was a sucker punch. Odor shoved, Bautista shoved; the next step is either (a) chest-to-chest jawing until your teammates can pull you apart or (b) wrestling each other to the ground until your…

Samer, I am never going to get a hole-in-one, let alone one in the TPC. If I get one at the local pitch-and-putt par-3 course, I’m giving high 5s on the fucking freeway on-ramp. Hats off (enviously) to Will Wilcox.

In truth, one would suspect that most North Siders would be, by this point, Odin-worshiping, human-sacrificing berserkers, so this one guy is hardly a surprise.

The Mary Marauders?

One point of clarification: “the Raiders are currently on a one-year lease at their home stadium, which is a fucking prison they created for themselves and in the process destroyed one of the better baseball stadiums.”
