Is that like how Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, Jay-Z etc. don’t send an extra check to the Treasury every year (I know Buffett did it as a bet one year) while claiming they don’t pay enough in income taxes?

I julienned my palm making cole slaw a year ago and my son still has nightmares occasionally about when daddy “got scratched by a werewolf”.

I got Meathead’s book for my birthday last year and it has improved my smoked foods immeasurably.  Big fan.

I can understand a Yankees fan getting in a twist over the 2017 MVP race, especially since they had identical WARs and one plays a position with a defensive premium. I mean, no Yankee ever got the benefit of the doubt.  Or simply got an award they never deserved but ended up with five of them.

They are terrific to eat. Plus, if you enjoy fishing, they are an exciting catch and easy as hell to find. I think it is believed that the Potomac River came to have them because someone brought them here to farm.

Being swallowed by a whale is my number one irrational fear. You won’t be swallowed by the big baleen whales...their throats are only as wide as a beach ball. You’d be crushed and shredded as their tongue pushes you against the baleen they have in their mouths. And if you were still alive at that point, you’d die as…

Deadspin Commenters: The drunken Pittsburgh Steeler fans of the internet

I’ve told this story here before but it bears repeating.

Agreed, by season 4 it had definitely gone off the rails.

I made a Unit reference in a different thread just the other day.  I thought I was the only fan!

I’m shocked that white man in his late fifties from West Virginia living in Arkansas has a problem with dreadlocks 

Absolutely. I spend every waking minute imagining that my life is a shitty action movie

Seth McFarlane agrees:

They should have gone to Hollywood Upstairs Medical College and become doctors.

Yeah, you have to wonder what could have been had Campbell tried to limit the contact occasionally. Longer career but a lower peak. He’s like a walking cautionary tale.

I live in Pittsburgh now and my dad always told me about how Campbell and Harris were contemporaries (see my reply to DMIR above for his take) but very different runners.

True... no one went looking for contact as much as Campbell. My dad always says that Franco Harris never saw an opportunity for contact that he didn’t try and avoid and Earl Campbell never saw an opportunity for contact go by without making it.
