As a PhD candidate of the period who is CURRENTLY putting together a class titled “‘Unfreedoms’ in the Making of the Modern World” I too agree that this shit needs to be put to rest. There were a range of “unfreedoms” that pervaded the early modern world. The commercial traffic of convict laborers and indentured…

I'd pay money to see that.

I am totally up for a Guy LaFleur-esque comeback from Bonds. Dude would easily hit 30 homers and 100 RBI.

never forget

I don’t think you have to worry about Bennett telling everybody what he thinks. Which was what the Bears saw as part of the problem. Trestman would let him get away with it, Fox was less interested in doing so.

WTF is with people named Drake getting in the way of Chicago sports players.

Injury plus mic.

This is generally considered the best explanation.

The same thing people get out of watching reality TV?

It’s a live-action comic book. Kinda like a violent ballet. The WWE makes bad TV shows run by a senile dickbag, but a good wrestling match tells a story, on multiple levels, in a fun, emotional, and totally unique way. Also it’s still real to me damnit.

Not since the Spanish Armada has Drake inspired such fear in an opponent.

“Hey, if you all make the Finals, I’m going to be there wearing your jersey. Just wanted to let you know that.”

Honest question: If the NFL could quietly get away with simply ceasing tests for marijuana, would it?

Sidebar: I love Barry Bonds and think that he takes an unfair amount of shit because he was a dick to writers and ESPN told fans to dislike him.

You realize that Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb played in a time before the slider was invented? Before pitching-handed specialism was a concept? Before advanced defensive mapping? I’m not saying they weren’t good, but if you took Babe Ruth and teleported him to 2016 and had, let’s say, Jose Fernandez throw him a slider — he’d…

It’s so romantic when a couple saves themselves for their second marriage.

“He’s one of the least pleasant people who has ever played the game.”

^ there’s a picture of two guys who never had to play against the best competition available. You can’t compare dudes who played in an era when only white guys who worked side-jobs in the off-season were their competitors. Barry Bonds would have fucking demolished in the 20's and 30's. In fact, I could have played…

If NFL teams want better QB development, maybe they should stop being such cheap asswipes and fund a real minor league instead of relying on a bunch of petty tyrant college coaches that don’t even care about the long term development of their unpaid players
