And you think if Babe Ruth - who was hitting 60 homeruns in a season with ballparks that had 440' centerfield fences while the next tier down of sluggers were working on putting 20 out of the park - played today he’d still be eating hot dogs and drinking beer, while being completely unable to adapt to the changes?

Christ - so much hot air released just to say something so simple: SNL sucks.

what are you doing with your life, tom.

The media - the biggest single collection of cowards, whiners and hypocrites on the planet.

“Just try to be offended” is Deadspin’s version of “Hold my beer”.

Ah yes - the famous New York City barbecue.

Oh, who gives a shit. What a waste of time.

I love pieces like this coming from the same corner of the internet that couldn’t imagine Trump being a viable contender.

Of course a sucker like you buys into the Raptors.

You people are delusional.
