Man I don’t even know where Barry was going with this, since Tony Bernazard didn’t make his big league debut until 1979. Also 44+6=50, which is notably 7 less than 57. Either way, Velez holds the MLB record for non-pitchers at 46. Bernazard was 18 in 1974, so maybe he did it in the minor leagues?

I don’t even understand coaches who do that. How is a guard with a busted ass shoulder going to help your team by playing? I can’t imagine a situation where a player is suffering through an injury that bad to such a crucial limb being a net positive for the team by playing over sitting.

Kermit Sprinkles is criminally underseeded here, and is gonna get an undeserved first round loss because of it. 

I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how to address service time manipulation recently. I’ve come up with two ideas outside of the obvious one outlined in the article, where MLB just decreases the number of days required to get a year of service time (which I think will still run into issues with the most…

I have noticed a whole lot of complaining about this coming from the exact same crowd that bitched and moaned all through 2016 about how Hillary was anointed and the DNC didn’t do enough for Bernie... Really makes you wonder.

As vicious and memorable as Oberyn’s death was, the part of that entire sequence that has stayed so prominently with me was Ellaria’s immediate blood-curdling scream after it happened.

At least Liberty lost. As bad as this timeline can get, a week long campaign of sports-knowers white-washing how shitty Liberty University is in the name of a cinderella story is still a bridge too far.

$100k for a 1670? Something tells me the kid isn’t the dumbest person in this story.

ASU is the only school in the country with an acceptance rate over 100%

*cries* I’ve never been this happy

Why waste time say lot word when few word do trick?

Move aside Bible, this is the greatest story ever told

Baberaham Lincoln. Shaaaa-wing.

Raising the marginal tax rate on income over $10 million to 70% will no doubt be used to justify more immigration. 

Headline of the year

an embedded tweet taking the place of a title and fleshed out article, as seems to be the specialty of someone who has in the past written about how we should all just leave twitter?

Scrubs. I watched it in high school when it was syndicated on Comedy Central, even though it was still airing new episodes as well on whatever channel it was on. Comedy Central showed like a 2 hour block of episodes right around the time I’d get home from school, generally in order, but I only ever got to watch the…
