The prospects aren't forced to sign of course, but ransoming smaller contracts for earlier call ups just doesn't seem right. Seems unwise to limit potential earnings like that. I know there is the chance they don't pan out, but you'd be hard pressed to find a professional athlete not willing to double down on their…

Damon may have the worst arm I've ever seen from a Major League outfielder.

More importantly, is Cincinnati pizza even any good?

That team sans Votto and on days Cueto isn't pitching is rough. No shade, Reds fans, just my humble opinion as a baseball watching dude.

So, Sunday night when the Cardinals and Adam Wainwright were shutting out the Reds, Great American Ballpark suddenly erupted during the eighth inning when Sam LeCure struck out the magical tenth batter, where everyone in attendance gets a free pizza. This was the only thing that Reds fans had to cheer all night and…

You know I thought of that, and while I agree on some level, the lack of fortitude exhibited by multiple justices appointed to uphold the law and protect law-abiding citizens was just so much more appalling to me. Parents fail their children just the same as children fail their parents. Judges aren't perfect, but they…

Endlessly fascinated with abandoned/dead malls. Even got a chance to talk to the guy behind DeadMalls.com after randomly meeting through a co-worker. Couple this with the abandoned Silverdome photos and I could pour over those pictures all day.

I read that Boston Globe article when it was published to catch myself up on what had happened in this case. It gave me that sad, harsh pit feeling in the bottom of my stomach to know a creep like him was granted chance after chance after chance, regardless of his family's connections. He was a menace, and a menace…

No errors? As a Bills fan, I'm very suspect.

So, I held a position with an upstate NY publishing company for while, where my publisher also owned a Brazilian jiu-jitsu dojo and naturally, an amateur MMA promotion which I will decline to name.

You should email some officials at Northwestern, too.

NOLA Argyle, love it.

The Dumpster for Dreams

They don't. NCAA athletes are regularly likened to slave labor in this country. Universities make millions selling tickets and merchandise based on the performances of these kids, who see none of it. All under the guise of "a free education." The value of which is almost laughable when considering the amount of money…

Should have went to Golden State, which is such a better situation than Detroit, shooting or otherwise. I'm sure since he's also now president of basketball operations for the Pistons, it means he would have washed out with the Warriors the same way Mark Jackson did. This robs us of a bloody public SVG/Joe Lacob feud.

My neighborhood's ice cream truck plays "It's a Small World" remixed with whistles and percussion. Gets stuck in my head just thinking about it.

Just imagine what kind of uproar it would have caused if they decided to pull it and it made its way to the blogs. Quite frankly, they're lucky to have had such a moment broadcast on their network, one that I think might have been subject to some second or third guessing if they were faced with knowing what they were…

So, just want to make sure, this guy found a half-full tall boy of some brewery sludge and he drank it?

Well, I don't think anyone is confusing OJ Simpson for a former Heisman winner these days. That said, it should not take a brutal double murder for people to look past that, as in Winston's case.

Eh, Davey Boy was allegedly smoking crack before the Summerslam '92 Main Event he ended up actually winning, so Warrior gets a pass there.
