The pitching was abysmal and the bombas were in short supply, but we had chances. Aaron Judge robbed Rosario TWICE in game 2, his athleticism for his size is infuriating. The bases-juiced zero-outs failure of last night was probably the worst. I was screaming at the TV for someone to just get a fucking base hit. Run…

That’s awesome. I was too young to appreciate GameSpy for any journalistic reasons but I used it for matchmaking in Quake and other games. I work in the video game industry now and I always look back fondly on those days!

Fuck me that’s a website I haven’t thought of in a LONG time.  GameSpy man.  

I keep posting this on Vikings articles but I DID NOT BUY IN TO THE COUSINS HYPE AND NOBODY EVER SHOULD! Gold star for me as a Vikings fan for not drinking the kool-aid I guess? Zimmer is a crotchety old shit who can’t adapt and is too stubborn to change his plan when it’s not working. They didn’t accumulate any…

MAYBE Nelson Cruz, but only because he’s been mashing homers for like 15 years and with multiple teams.  Otherwise I’d agree.

My Twins won 100 games and a division title AND ended the season on top of the Yankees with the single team home-run record. They still don’t get any national coverage, and none of their players are anywhere close to being household names in the rest of the country. The last article on this site about the Twins was…

I’m indifferent. I don’t agree with the sentiment that he’s “figuring things out” but that’s just like my opinion man. Last week he went 19/27 for 177 and 2 TDs, this week he went 23/30 for 193, 1 INT and no TDs.  That’s not far off from what Cousins has done the last two weeks.  It’s underwhelming as hell.  New…

I don’t have to imagine this.  This is me. I’m a Vikings fan who saw and felt all those things.  I never believed in Cousins though.  My hope for continued dominance in the NFC North faded when they signed him.  It sucks.

Game addiction is real, and predatory behavior by game publishers is bad and will only get worse. I work in fraud/payments at a global video game company, and I deal with this stuff every day. It is very prevalent in the UK and Europe, especially around FIFA and F2P games. Addiction (to anything) should be diagnosed…

California (San Diego resident) checking in: Duncan Hunter hands down. I’m sure there are scummy local and state politicians but Hunter’s publicity for his misuse of funds (and throwing his wife under the bus for it!) made him front and center for me. Hunter’s challenger in the last election was a very good dude named…

Can we still list Michelle Bachman?  Because seriously fuck her for eternity.

Not gonna lie I’m 34 and well removed from my college drinking days but if I went to a neighborhood block party and they had a cold keg of Keystone Light...I’d get stupid with it.  That shit was DELICIOUS when ice cold out of a keg.

I quit smoking cigarettes 8 years ago with prescription drug assistance (Chantix, it worked for me, doesn’t work for everyone) and it’s the best decision I ever made in my life. Vaping to quit traditional smoking (or chewing) is commendable but you’re still ADDICTED TO A SUBSTANCE! That in and of itself is not good. Li…

Please go out and vote for people who will at least work to fix our healthcare system. It’s pretty clear the GOP wants hospitals and private insurance companies to succeed and make profits. They want the poor and sick to just die and go away. Anyone who says otherwise is a willfully cruel piece of shit or just seriousl…

As a Vikings fan I do not believe the hype, and I didn’t last year either. Our fan base (and homer sports talking heads) seem to forget that COUSINS CAN’T BEAT TOUGH OPPONENTS. He is 5-25 against opponents with a winning record and 0-1 in his only playoff appearance. I understand that the onus for winning is not 100%…

Hey man where’s the annual fantasy team blog?!  I’m ready to talk about some fuckin’ FANTASY TEAMS BRO!  Sick names, sweet draft picks, bro-drama.  Lets do this!

I’ll never be ashamed of the concerts I attend. Slipknot’s new album shreds even though most metal-heads have relegated them to the same bin as Limp Bizkit and Korn, and I’ll still see them live when they go on a regular tour. My wife and I just saw the Smashing Pumpkins and Billy Corgan can still get it on the guitar…

I’m working this weekend because I have a massive project launching at the end of September. My boss assures me that the right people know the amount of work I’ve put in, and success on this project could make my role at my current place of employment far more lucrative, successful, and gratifying than what I…

I would throw down a bunt because that counts as a hit, and I have decent sprinting speed and I think I could leg out a bunt single.  And then I’d probably get beaned for breaking some unwritten rule about normal people bunting for a hit for a million dollars because it’s a slap in the face to America’s past time.  

I played catcher all throughout little league, and while athletic cups were required, the umpires never checked the catcher in full gear because in little league the chest protector had that bit that hung down to kind of protect the groin area. One day I did not wear my cup. That day a kid fouled a fastball off of home…
