I’ll admit to slamming my racket more than a few times during my tennis career and racking up a few warnings and penalty points and putting a few rackets out of commission but damn, I never went that far. Impressive!

that would trip up the kid who just came back from being an exchange student in “Barthelona” and insists on spelling it “futbol.”

we wholeheartedly endorse that concept, eh.

“what is a football? No really, I don’t know that that is, all I do is spell words.”

that would be a challenge. I doubt any of the males know what they are, let along seen a pair. 

if the kids ask more than two questions about the word: release the hounds:

yeah, but she’s got a damn good life now!

my wife worked for a Greek bank. She said the two things they did best were yell and smoke. She eventually reported them to the department of health because they smoked so much in the office.

Pitino was just channeling some of his coaching advice from when he told his players to double pump before sending it home. 

I’m not blaming them for giving out the permits, just that they’re giving too many and too cheaply. As far as I’m concerned, if you think you can climb Everest and die it’s just thinning the herd.

yep, that’s her. The coaches were telling us how the vets always tell the rookies about Mona and they make a call upon arrival. Well, the morning after a game the team is on the bus and one rookie (no longer in the league) is not there on time. He finally got on the bus about 10 minute late, looking like hell, and the…

we booked 4 months in advance for Half Dome with a tour operator. He got passes for some weeks but not others, including the week we’d booked. That’s how difficult it is (and should be).

My wife and I were going to do the Inca Trail but those permits are very tough to come by these days. The Peruvian government recognized there were too many people going up there. Even for Half Dome in Yosemite, it’s hard for tour operators to always get permits.

Some Blazers coaches I know told me about some woman named Maya or something like that, who describes herself as a “party planner” but is basically a female pimp for NBA players. She’ll rent out a bar with girls, players will go in and choose which one(s) they want for the night. Toronto is a favorite road trip now. He…

wasn’t it Degrassi? I only know as my wife uses Drake in her fitness classes. Whenever I hear modern hip hop during a workout class I ask “is this Drake?” I know nothing by him and am proud of that fact. 

hey, I’m available and need the money, and played for the Warriors:

the Nepalese government should share some blame because they’re willing to give out more passes at these rates as they see it as revenue. 

the problem is all of the skilled Nepalese who could be used to build such a contraction are currently being used as slave labor in Qatar to build stadiums for the World Cup and when they return home they’re in caskets, so that should delay construction a few more years.

maybe he’s referring to their title in the 70's?

the Marlins could have Stanton, Yelich and Deitrich in the field and Chris Paddack (1.93 ERA) and Luis Casrillo (2.45 ERA) in the rotation. Well done, Jeets.
