My boss and I went to Whole Foods for lunch yesterday. Both get sandwiches and a drink, should've been like, $18 total. He throws two candy bars the size of Halloween fun sized on the scanner as an impulse buy. Total instantly shoots to $24. Who the hell are these people who can routinely shop there?

The only feeling worse than putting your hand under hot water and knowing it's gonna kill in a second is The Pain.

Honest question: is Mornhinweg an idiot for taking the wind because this was pre-"both teams can theoretically have a possession" OT and thus nothing was more valuable than having the ball, or simply because it didn't work out in his favor? Belichick did this precise thing against Denver last year, the Pats won, and…

LOL! This is krayzee!! What zaniness!

HELLS YEAH BUDDY WOOOOOO!!!

Centerback Nemanja Vidic and left back Patrice Evra joined the squad before the 2005-2006 season, but the trio first started a majority of games together the following year.

When I was a kid I asked my dad why they didn't all just immediately start fighting each other in the outfield if they were so intent on throwing hands with the other team.

Had to read this a few times, but I think I get the jist.

Always controversy bruin around ol' Artest!

I suppose that's true, but these columns have typically been on the beer themselves, not their reputations, so I guess it was more out of step with previous writing than anything. I've been enjoying these pieces a lot.

I agree that Yuengling is a bit overrated, but I found it distracting that you waited until paragraph seven of an eight paragraph essay to actually get into the "whys" of your position.

This is great!

I enjoy how even here, in official league correspondence, he emphasizes that this change is due to public pressure/outcry, rather than any true sense of moral and/or ethical obligation. This is the conduct policy change equivalent to "sorry if you were offended."

I think that, say, a Jaguars fan (either of them) would kill for that type of season.

In a salary cap league, it's certainly a skill—but eventually there has to come a point where it becomes unsustainable.

I wonder if Vegas could be kept afloat largely on the novelty of "Heeyyy we're in Vegas for a weekend! Let's catch a hockey game in the middle of the desert!"
